2008-Jun-25 - Catch-up

Its been a while.
Believe me-I have not just been sitting around.
Well, o.k....maybe a little, but hey, I am pregnant and it is 110 degrees and if you have not been 6 months pregnant in Phoenix in the summer than you have never been hot.


We've been staying busy as usual-the kids all have swim and dive during the week and the boys have indoor soccer on the weekends. Isaiah is really taking off with his swimming this year and it's all he wants to do. Isabella still isn't feeling too confident on her own , but hopefully she will by the time we are finished.

I missed posting about some birthdays...

Gabe turned 7 back in March and we celebrated it with some cousins and a treasure hunt at the park.

Birthdays are so much fun at this age. All you need are friends, space to run, throw in some cake (candy helps too) and you have a party!
Gabriel is really doing well with his reading and school work and he's started learning how to play guitar also-I think it has something to do with his uncle Keith being the teacher.
We love you Gabe and thank God for you every day!

This guy also celebrated his birthday.

Ouch-the computer almost caught fire down-loading this...he looks pretty good for 4???, no?

Of course his good looks, charisma, charming mannerisms, and general all- around good nature are only a small part of what makes him so incredible-the real clincher is that he's married to me...umm, I mean that I am married to him...umm, o.k. whatever--what I am really trying to say is uh...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JERRY!! You are a incredible! (Did I say that already?)

Some random pictures....

Bella and Lily

Keith-turned- vampire. (You had no idea, did you Emily?-though I have to say- I have always had my suspicions)

Isabella again

Luca trying out his new prosthetic arm. We decided to go as cheap as we could...it works, although he does have a little more trouble with his hand-writing.

Well, I am going to wrap this up-I need to do a post from our trip to Missouri, but that will have to wait until next time.
