Swollen Feet

I like to grumble about my lack of sleep due to my little babe... but when I found this gem of a picture on my phone I quickly count my blessings that I am no longer pregnant. Cause I'd prefer no sleep again to being pregnant again- this 3rd time was horrendous. Want proof... here's my feet that are twice the size they are supposed to be which for me.. was a HUGE deal.

*This is mostly a reminder to myself as to why I should NOT have another baby. :)

Polar Bear

This one almost makes me cry. almost. Pictured above is Jared, Mia & Polar Bear.

Polar Bear has been part of Jared's life for a long time.. we used to call him Jar (sounds like Jear) Bear. Get it... Jar Bear. It rhymes. Anyway, he recently left for college and it was

harder to see him go than we realized. For him too. He's been hanging out with

us for the last 10 years, he's gone on vacations with us, partied with us... you name it.

He's one of Larry's BEST Friends.

 

This was his last night to spend with us before leaving. He brought over Polar Bear

and left him in the care of Lilly & Mia. How sweet. So, since that first night Polar Bear has;

 

gone with us on vacation

eaten breakfast while watching tv

almost went for a swim

snuggles every night or

makes a great pillow

gets in the middle of sisterly disputes

& reminds us of Jared

 



Kinder girl

She just seems too little still...

growing up right before my eyes.

Wipeout Girl!

Patiently waiting for the "Go" to start running through her bday party

 obstacle course. She's kinda shy, but every now and then she

surprises me. Like with wanting a Wipeout Party and inviting

ALL the kids she could think of instead of just her best of

friends. Cause she's sweet like that!

Almost Home!

I can't help but be excited whenever I think about my missionary

brother coming home! (no more Skype talk) The countdown is on!!

 T minus 47...

road trips

Road trips are fun... but even more fun with friends! Driving to the zoo 8.24.13.
