Our kiddo's



Anyone need a hair clip!
Grandma made this beautiful dress for Madee when she was helping us with Baby Claire. Madee asked if she could wear it for seven days! Madee picked the colors for the fabric out herself. Not a bad job match colors Madee. Thanks Grandma for the wonderful dress.

Three kids is definitely more of a challenge then two kids but I sure love them all!

Yakima WA. Here we come!


Welcome to Yakima Washington. I have never been there but that is going to be our new home in just a few weeks. Lincoln accepted a new job there and we are loading up and moving out. We checked out how far it is from all the important places.
Portland 3 hours
Seattle 2 1/2 hours
TriCities 1 1/2 hours (about)
Utah 11 hours (SADLY)
I will miss living in Utah it has been fun and we have had amazing experiences and made such great friends. I said it right on facebook..I feel happy/Sad about moving. We are ready for a new adventure but are sad to leave the people we have becomes such good friends with and sad to not live so close to my sisters of coarse.
Wish us luck!

More picture of Claire!

We are so happy to have Claire in our family. She is a sweet little baby. She eats well and sleeps really well. She cries only when she is cold from being changed or taking a bath. What a good baby.
Sam got to hold her at the hospital. It was really cute.
We are a happy family! I think Claire is actually yawning in this picture.
She is a cutie!

One week and counting

I have one week left before we have a new little addition to our family. I must admit its getting more uncomfortable to walk and sleep. I am mostly excited and have heard both good and bad about having three children instead of two. Some say its harder and some say its easier adjusting to three. I will let you know how I feel about it in a few weeks.

Nine Month Pregnant

Yes I am nine months and almost ready for baby to come. I thought I would share a picture of myself :) ....ok well I will share a cute picture of the nursing cover I made. Just picture a big belly under that. It is very big by the way. I have been working on a few baby projects the last week or so. I just love sewing if you can't already tell. Here are some more.
Here are a couple Onesie Dress I made. I am not totally positive I liked the colors I picked together. I guess I could always make other ones. Thanks for the idea Aunt Dorothy.
I made a car seat tent or cover for my car seat and my older sister wanted me to make one for her. I love the fabric she picked here is hers.
Cute cute! I wonder if I am really done with all my sewing projects or if I will find another one to do right before baby comes. We will see.

Baking Freak!

I get into these moods. Yes I was in the mood to bake today and well I did. I made very large yummy dinner rolls that we are going to eat with BBQ shredded pork for dinner. They are soooo yummy. I also baked cookies. at pretty much the same time. Well the rolls were rising I was putting the cookies together. Super easy cookies made from a cake mix. I will share it. I like the devil cake mix best.

1 box cake mix
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
Choc chips, m&m or nuts of any kind (optional)
350 degrees for 8-10 min.

After all that baking I did, I did have to sit down. Too much Standing for someone who is having a baby in two weeks.
