Flashback June 2011- Celebrate Lincoln

I found these pictures from exactly a year ago. I was 19 weeks pregnant with Belle.  Sometimes I think I overkill when it comes to picture taking, but then I looked back over the five years of our blog (technically two blogs since I made our first one private since it had our names) and felt SO glad that I take a ridiculous amount of them.  A million rush of emotions came over me....the strongest of them being how FAST time flies.  I love being a mom, and reliving all the memories we have made as a family fills me with gratitude and extreme joy.  I want to savor every minute we have together.


  On the way home from this event I broke out in a crazy rash.  This happened two other times during my pregnancy with Belle and I have now idea what from.  I know I am allergic to milk, but it doesn't give me hives.  Once was from swimming and has happened another time since....weird.

Fiery Darts

Bond has great ideas for Family Home Evening.  One of the latest was learning how having "a shield" of faith can protect us from the "fiery darts" of Satan.

Soccer Camp

Bug participted in a British Challenger Soccer Camp the first week of June.
The two youngin's and I hung out on the sidelines soaking in the beautiful weather.


Big Helpers

While the boys and I were finishing up this cake, Belle woke up. I needed to get a few things cleaned up before I got her out of her crib so I told the boys they could go in and talk to her.
 I guess they thought she needed a few toys to play with.
 Clean-up duty.
 Silly, silly boys.

All Night!

This little 7 month beauty made it through the night with no help from her mama! Time to celebrate.
