Our day on the trail!

We spent this past Sunday at a state park we had not been too! We were in the mood for exploring and getting to know more about the great state of Indiana!


We decided to walk one of the many trails. It was so beautiful and yes steep! It was hard walking up the steep hills 42 weeks pg..:) But we (I) did and it was so energizing and fun!
Here our some pics of the trail....

A lake on the trail..

JaidenNoah and the flowers the children picked..

Morgan at the play area in the park..

the children enjoyed rolling down the hill..:)

Zaralayna bringing her worm to show me..

and the big lake in the park; Sand Lake which we plan to swim at later this summer..

It was such a great day! I LOVE my family! There is nowhere I would rather be then with them!

Pictures of Kian (Kee-in) Adley

An Announcement!!

Kian Adley arrived this morning at 7:50am after 2 hours labor at home unassisted with just my family around me! He was born at 42 weeks 1 day...and he was definitely late..almost no vernix and peeling skin!

He was born at a whopping 11lbs. 3oz but he is the cutest baby we have had yet!!

Will write my birth story and pics later after I rest a bit!

TY for your prayers

Happy Birthday!!! Someone Special!!

Today my son Micah turns 8!! So he is this week's Someone Special!!!

Micah is a twin. His sister RuthAnne went to glory when they were 27 days old. We always say that he is so active and busy to make up for his twin sister.. :)

He is such a bright boy! He has a quick wit and engaging smile!
He has started reading really well these last few months and I am so glad to see him enjoying books!

He also finds himself in trouble of all sorts. His little hands our always busy and sometimes they find naughty things to do. He really does remind me of Curious George! :)

I have to say also that he is a handsome little man! Big blue eyes looking up at me...
We're so happy to have him in our family. He is a wonderful blessing and I am blessed to be his mama! 

Gotta post some overdue (literally) belly pics!!

These were taken today at 41 weeks 2 days...

My Mother's Day!!

Although it wasn't exactly like I wanted..(I wanted to be holding my newest blessing but he/she had other ideas..) it was a great day!

My dh and children set a plant on the table so when I opened my eyes Sunday morning this is what I opened them to. A beautiful flowering hanging plant!

Then my dh made me my favorite breakfast..Eggs Benedict. He is an excellent cook incase I haven't mentioned that before. His desire was to be a chef and although that isn't what he ended up doing we get to taste all his fabulous meals in our home! We're the better for it..perhaps not our waste line but our mouths love us! (and him!)

Then today I went to pick up my son and when I got home I noticed two more hanging plants on my porch! I missed them when I left but I had baby on the brain and was sidetracked..yes, thats my excuse and I am sticking to it! They are all beautiful! :)

My oldest dd made me chocolate covered strawberries and I ate them while we watched Army Wives lastnight! YUMMY! :)

I am truly a BLESSED woman!
