School Pictures 2014

School Pictures from October 2014 

I have some serious cuteness on my hands!

...and then Ava's School Picture - she is in the middle.

Baby Number 3 - We can hardly Wait

These pictures are very overdue - they are from October when baby was 22 weeks old.  We are almost to 30 weeks now so baby has grown a lot since these!  We are excited to find out if we are having a boy or girl and having the last one as a surprise has been hard for mom!

Mom is feeling lots of kicks and getting anxious for the 2 month countdown.  The date for baby is February 3rd so it is coming up fast.

Sam and Ava are pretty excited for baby - Sam has had lots of questions about how the baby got there, how the baby will get out, where the baby will sleep, etc....  On the way to the ultrasound, he said, "Mom, I don't know if God is going to give us a boy or girl but I already love the baby!"  It was very sweet.

Sam drew a picture of our family in church......

.... and the close up of mom (far right) with baby in her tummy (love!)

 

Ava likes to kiss the baby (Mom's belly) and sing Frozen songs to the baby.

It will be interesting to see what they think when baby is actually here... I know that I am getting so excited and can't wait to meet my last little one!!

Christmas tree!

 

Picking out our Tree at the Boise Rescue Mission Lot - free popcorn and candy canes!

 

The kids were SO EXCITED to help decorate the tree and Sam helped dad with the star on top!

 

 Showing off their new ornaments and Christmas PJ's - Sam with Dusty the crop duster (from Planes) and Ava with Sofia the First

 

The tree is all finished.... and Ava has already managed to change back into a Princess Dress (her standard attire at home!)

 

Things are going downhill over here!!!

 

When we don't feel good, for some reason, building a "Nest" on the couch makes everything better.... and clean up easier for mom, if necessary!

SNOW DAY!!!

 

We got around 6 inches of snow on Thursday and Friday, which is a lot for Boise this early on!  No complaints here as the kids were SO EXCITED and no work or school meant a fun snow day!!!!

 

Mom, Sam and Ava built a ramp and sled track in the back yard to play on.

Ava, as usual, lives to eat the snow!!

 

Saturday morning, dad and the kids built a really cool fort - complete with a shelf full of ready-made snowballs!!!!

Fun picture from the summer
