Mostly just my thoughts!

So as I was patiently waiting for my children to go to sleep tonight I started pondering all the things that we have done through out the summer and realized how far out of date I am with the family blog and how sad I am going to be looking back and realizing that I have nothing to look at none of the milestones and such I have tons of pictures and I am going to do my best to add them over the next month since the kids will be going to school and I will have three of them at school and only two at home CRAZY and sad!
I remember when the three oldest we little we lived in our own little world! It was our own bubble and we didn't really have to go anywhere if we didn't want to because they were built in friends! We did everything together they were all in diapers together and heck for the first few months they were all in cribs at the same time. Joey was only 26 months when Cambria was born. I do miss those days and to be honest I don't remember how hard it was I know it was and do remember that I complained about how hard it was at times. Church was the worst...we didn't make it through church for over a year! We had sacrament meeting last so everyone was done by the time we got there so they would pass the sacrament and we would have to leave because everyone was screaming! I would take those days back in a heart beat though lol. The problems were so much simpler then, we didn't have the out side world creeping in on our family through school and extracurricular activites. Right now I just pray all the time that I can do the best I can and teach them the right things and to be good people and choose the right!!!!! It is so scary being a parent( I was going to put sometimes but I don't think that fits) it really is scary all the time especially in the world that we live in!
When kenzi was born it was almost like starting completly over Bria was almost potty trained everyone was sleeping through the night it was just so different from having the other three! I do love what she has added to our family and am so grateful she came when she did! She really was the best baby and was so patient to just sit and wait where ever she needed to be so that i could still take care of the others as well! She now is a little more demanding of my time and things be done immediatly but that is okay because she was patient and calm when it mattered most!
William oh my william he has just started walking the last couple of days and that makes me so sad that he is growing up so fast! But in comparison to the others he does take his time doing things! He didn't get is two first teeth until the week of his first birthday and Kenzi was walking by 11 months joey was 12 months bria about the same and miss Elli little miss elli she was like 15 months she wanted nothing to do with it! So William is just barely 13 months which is fine by me. He is demanding and squaks at the top of his lungs for me to feed him or open the back door so he can go out or to pick him up! As much as I don't want him to grow up a little bit of talking would help so the squaking can be a little less!
Oh how I love my children and I hope and pray that i can be a good mother to all of them I Pray that they will be good people of the world and will do amazing things(to me amazing things might be different than someone elses) I am excited for the school year and to see what they all can do with the teachers they have! I am excited to see them all excel in everything they put their minds to! I don't want this year to go to fast though because it means that by the end of the school year my oldest will be 8 years old!! Where did the time go? Where did the time  go?

First Day of School!

OKay so I couldn't help but post these even though it has been months! I just can't believe how fast my kids are growing!

Miss Bri coming out of Preschool the first day and she LOVES it! She is learning so much I think she is learning almost as much as Miss Ell who is in Kindergarten.
Ell walking to school the first day she didn't have her backpack cause we had taken it and left it at back to school night.
Joey who is just to old for his own good!
And Kenz had to get into this one. She thinks she is as big as the other kids...one morning she came to me as I was trying to get everyone else ready and she had her backpack on...I thought she had gone back downstairs for something, a few minutes later I was calling her so we could leave to take the older ones to school and she didn't answer so I went outside to see if she was waiting for us....Nope she sure wasn't waiting she was 5 houses down the street trying to take her self to school! She is so ready to be at school as well.

Sir William or Handsome!

NO THIS TOP PICTURE IS NOT WILLIAM THAT IS JOEY WHEN HE WAS A LITTLE OLDER THAN WILLIAM IS NOW BUT I PUT THEM BOTH UP FOR FUN! JOEY HAD THE EARS AND WILLIAM IS CHUBBY! LOVE MY BOYS!

This little dude is not so little! He is pushing the 20lb mark and he still isn't even 6 months yet! He loves to eat, apparently! He loves playing with his siblings and I can leave him in the kids rooms and they entertain him for a good while before he becomes momma's boy again! He is almost sitting up on his own and rolls over like crazy I can't keep him in one place for long! Man we just love him!
