Our Newest Addition!

May 14, 2009---Our final miracle from God came into our lives. A long 9 months. All the pregnancy pains are gone. Our family is complete. Not knowing what we were having, it was a huge surprise of it being a girl. Holding her in my arms, I couldn't imagine having a boy. It is her that completes us. Kyrcee, Gracie, and Kovai love her to pieces! They are all very helpful. She was a born at 11:02. She weighed 7 lbs. 10 oz. and was 21 1/2 inches long. The smallest of all the kiddos. I forget how fast they get spoiled. She loves to be held. My mom was able to be here with us for 3 weeks. It was a huge help and the kids had so much fun with her. Thanks mom! She is a wonderful baby. Right now, she's good at doing all the things that babies do........eat, poop, sleep, and eat some more. We love her very much and she is another love of our lives.

The 'little monster'

You have to know this little boy to understand the meaning of "MUD". This boy could find water in a desert, and mud in Buckingham Palace. Withing seconds (not exaggerating) this boy needs changed from head to toe. We bought him some rain gear....jacket, pants, and boots. He loves crawling out of his pants and his boots are a little big. SO, daddy came up with a plan...DUCT TAPE! He duct tapes his pants at the top and then tapes his boots on. It really works!

This little boy is 'King of the World', at least mommy's world. He crawls and climbs, and jumps, and bumps anywhere and everywhere. He has the bruises to prove what a tough boy he is. One of his things to do when music is on and playing is to get up on the table and dance. He is so stinkin' cute that mommy can't get mad at him. (FYI-the girls were not allowed to do this at that age)

Gracie's First Day of Dance!

Gracie has drove us crazy for the past two years because every Monday, we would take Kycee to dance and Gracie would be in tears because she couldn't dance like her "sissy". Now it is her year to show off her moves. She loves to go to dance and looks forward to every Saturday. She practices at home and she loves her teacher Ms. Tracy.

First Day of Preschool!

Kyrcee was so excited to start preschool. She is doing awesome and is already learning to read. She is one smart little girl.

Gracie wasn't to sure about going through a day without her sister. She does pretty well and her and Kovai are getting along really well together.

Kyrcee's FIVE!!!

Grandma and Grandpa Siddoway got Kyrcee this EASY BAKE OVEN for her birthday.

We do a lot of baking in it. Huge hit mom and dad!

Eric and myself got her another American Girl doll. She loved the one that Grandma and Grandpa Siddoway gave her last year for her birthday. Kyrcee new that "KIT" needed a friend. So we got her JULIE.

Julie, Kyrcee and Kit. Kyrcee is talking to Grandma Siddoway and telling her about her birthday.

We had a birthday party for Kyrcee. The Petersen's, Howard's, McCallister's, and McCubbins came and had cake and ice cream with us.

This is her cake. It has quite the story. If you're really interested, I'll fill you in....or when I have more time, I'll update this blog with more info.

Goldsfield Ball Park

There is a rope swing at our ball field that the kids absolutely love. This swing they can actually sit on, so daddy can push them really fast. They hold on tight and have a ride of their lives.

Daddy and Kovai. Kovai is a little small to do the rope swing all by hisself, but daddy helps him.

Princess Rylee Grace

Kyrcee and Kovai are pretty good buds.

Our Little Prince Charming

Eric- still a kid at heart.

He can't wait untill he's a wee bit bigger.

Robe Lake

We go out to Robe Lake to pick blueberries.
It's the best berry-pickin spot around, I think.
Kovai just stands next to a berry bush, picks the berries and eats them faster than we can pick them. By the end of our visit, his face is very, very blue.

Gracie usually gets most her berries in the bag......she likes to help make fresh
"blueberry nuffins". Every once in a while she'll get a tart one that makes her lips pucker.

Kyrcee is an awesome blueberry picker. Her favorite thing to do with them is make blueberry pancakes and smoothies.

We usually take the McCallister family with us when we go. They have 4 boys. There was 12 of us in Eric's Zodiak. Quite the crew I'll tell ya.
This is me, Kyrcee, and Lisa.

Kovai loves being a guy with his daddy. He loves being right up next to him no matter what Eric is doing. They're pretty good buds.

Kyrcee-our little dare-devil. She's always living on the edge....trying to see how far she can go before mom says something.
