Well I didn't see that coming

Monday October 14, 2013 I found out I am pregnant for the fourth time. Man that still sounds weird. It is finally really sinking in., and I'm getting excited, but it was a shocker for sure. The boys are so excited.  It was funny Brendon asked well how do you know? I said well I took a test from the dollar store he goes well mom you know stuff from the dollar store doesn't really work LOL good point! LOL I went and got another non dollar store test still positive not to mention the nauseousness, sore breast, tired, emotional, peeing all the time. I think it's all safe to say I'm positively pregnant. Wesstin tells me everyday that he is so so happy. They all wanted another sibling so bad. The older boys do math all day figuring out how old they'll be when the baby is such and such age. Really cute and touching. I'm due June 18t also funny Hayden is august 21, wess is august 19.  Brendon is June13 this baby is due the 18 of June so we'll have our August kids and June kids. WOW!

Hello summer..............Good bye Summer

Wow this has to have been the fastest summer of my life! I can't believe how fast it flew by. I had so  many plans and I'm not ready to say good-bye but here we are with a fire burning and the leaves turning. As my mom informed me don't worry only 6 months to spring (= Hopefully winter will seem to go by as quickly. We had  a fun summer. I thoroughly enjoyed it just wasn't ready to see it leave. We played at the river a lot with our family friends often, had lots and lots of bbqs, Went up to Kenniwick, WA,  did a session of swimming lessons, spent some much needed full days at home, enjoyed the garden though it was probably one of the worst I've had the weather didn't help it along very well, we got to watch our friends pregnant belly grow all summer and are looking forward to meeting the new little man within the next few weeks, the boys used a pulley and got into the big tree in the front yard, we went for a few bike rides and the boys finally got to have a lemonade stand at Mom and Joe's yard sale.
All three boys are in school this year. All three boys are in school this year. I know had to say it twice I can't belive it either. My babies are 12,9 and 5 now. Don't blink! Before I know it we'll all be done with school. I did get the school room set up really nicely this year. I feel like it flows everyone has there own area which I ddin't think was possible in this tiny room I'll have to take pics. I'm really enjoying  my kids this year. I feel like I am unerstanding them in a whole new way. I am having to learn even more patience and self- control, and limitations, and organazation, and patience (=  All good things to posses. Or at least try to possess. My good friend Kerri has started homeschooling this year so it is really nice to have that understanding to share with each other.
Got rid of all my goats but three. Very glad. We have lots of wood to chop, a garden to clean out and things to seal up for WINTER! UGH! Hopefully fall hangs around for a good long while. I have to admit I have really enjoyed the soups and roasts and yummy foods of fall brewing in the crock pot already. Stevan is working very long hours and 6 days a week. That gets old way to fast. The one nice thing about winter is he is home. He still as tired as he is makes sure to play football every night with the boys. It amazes me the energy he can find.
We are going to put a fireplace in the living room. It should look really nice. Going to go  get more firewood this weekend, always something to do. It's really fun though to do as a family. Well that's about it for now
