Scottie needed more pics

Scott wanted more pictures.  Most of these are of Scotlyn.  I threw one in of Hawkins as a baby just to see if you think he and his sister look alike.  There is also a rare picture of Hawk sleeping.  I know Scott will love these, but I hope the rest of you enjoy them as well.

See A Penny, Pick It Up...

All day long it will be in your stomach cuz you swallowed it!!!  Yep, Hawkins swallowed a penny last night.  He choked for a minute, threw up, and then went right back to playing.  It must be noted that even though he threw up (after a night at a Chucky Cheese birthday party, not pretty) he still managed to swallow the penny.  I called his pediatrician this morning to see if there was anything I needed to do.  They said just to make sure he is not coughing or complaining of pain, and make sure it "returns" in the next 7 days.  I am officially on penny poop patrol!  Hawkins had the nastiest... well I won't go into details!  I guess I'll have to get him a wallet for his birthday to keep his money in from now on.

More pictures of Scotlyn



Okay, so a professional photographer I am not, but I wanted to try and take some nice pictures of Scotlyn for her daddy.  I was trying different things with the shading, but I am not sure what I like.  I do like her little doll that her grandma Verne gave her in the background.  I actually took these yesterday, but after seeing those cute pictures of Andrew on Heather's blog I figured I better get these up for her dad ( and everyone else) to see.
This girl won't hold still for nothin'

Happy Birthday Jenn

Today is my sisters birthday.  When I asked her how it felt to be 37 she had an unexpected answer.  "It feels freakin great!"  She then said that she will never take advantage of the fact that she is HERE to celebrate her birthday.  As many of you know my sister has been battling breast cancer for the last two years.  Well, actually she is now cancer free (with a great new set of knockers I might add), but she is still dealing with the side effects from chemo and still has more surgeries planned to finish up her reconstruction.  I am very proud of my sister!  My mom, sister, and I went to lunch today to celebrate her b-day.  It was a lot of fun especially since I got a little time away from ALL the kids.  You look great Jenn, and I am grateful that you are doing well!  You can learn more about my sister by checking out her blog.

Go Speed Racer

Claire is Focused 
Racing Remote Control Cars
Dad showing Hawk how it's done.

The kids had a four day weekend this last week and by Sunday I thought I was going to lose my mind.  Not to mention that getting myself and four kids to church by 9 a.m. and trying to make the most of sacrament is challenge in itself!  I know I am going to be a stronger person after all this (and i'll need the strength to break free of my straight jacket).  So, Sunday evening we went to my mom and dads to play with some remote control cars.  The kids had a great time.  Hope you enjoy the pics.
