Between having my fourth baby, moving to another state, my children adjusting to a new school, and<br />
just plain busy family life I haven't had much time think, reflect, and write. Here's to a new chance! <br />
<br />
<br />
It's true we've had many changes come our way in the past several years, but I guess that's life. It has been good for me because I tend to want nothing to change...like nada! But without change there is no progression, right?!? So here's to new changes! New habits and schedules!!!amychasingchildrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15661164252276032781noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710423177916465282.post-753268208558049202014-04-21T09:55:00.001-07:002014-04-21T09:55:16.318-07:00<h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hello again!</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So here's the gist of what we've been up to lately...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1) We had another baby!!! Miss Sophie joined our family in August 2014. She is a joy and a beauty! We couldn't be happier to have 4 crazy, busy children!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2) We are temporary Utahans! Yep we left Oregon for the beautiful mountains of Utah!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">3) Savannah is a 5th grader and is really excellent in math!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">4) Jackson is a 1st grader and quite the comedian in class I hear!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">5) Miles is the sweetest big brother, and Sophie is quite a big fan of Miles!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">6) Mike and I are in our 30's, weird huh?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here are some pictures of our Easter celebration yesterday</span><br />

<br />
My brother's girlfriend, Giselle, was kind enough to come freeze her keister with us last weekend for some family photos. I think she does a great job!<br />
<br />
Savannah is getting so much older now. She's almost to that phase of adolescence now. I can feel it in her actions and our conversations. She's joined Girl Scouts and is enjoying that very much right now with getting to go to water parks, visit museums, and soon she will go ice skating! At school she is loving 4th grade and has a wonderful teacher. Something that she's doing lately is become pen pals with my grandma Arlene. She comes home almost every day checking the mail to see if Grandma has sent her a letter.<br />
<br />
Jackson has changed so much in this last year. He is now a kindergartner! And loves school, loves sitting down and doing assignments. I think his favorite thing is writing out his letters. His teacher doesn't seem to like him and that's kinda of a bummer, but thankfully for Jackson he kinda of lives in his own world. I am very lucky to be a part of that world! Yesterday he told me, while I was taking too long to make his dinner "Ah mom I can't wait to grow up and be a missionary...I will go to people's houses every night and they will feed me". He can't wait to become a redult (Jackson's word for adult).<br />
<br />
Miles is kinda of driving me nuts right now. You know maybe that sounds bad and don't get me wrong I love my son more than anything! But he is at that stage where he is practicing pushing buttons, he loves to see peoples reactions to the naughty stuff he does. Ah yayay! I think he is still a sweetheart deep down and his most favorite thing is to snuggle with me and my "mommy tummy". He loves laying his head on my stomach or rubbing his sweaty feet all over it. He's also talking a tons more...my favorite phrase "Holy, holy cow"!<br />
<br />
Mike is amazing. He is juggling more now than he ever has. He works full time and also goes to school and has a rather involved calling at church. I am so excited that in April he has won a trip for us to go to Cabo thru his work. Truly I am amazed at what he's able to accomplish. Yesterday I was able to go hang with a freind and left Mike and the kids at the house. Not only did he clean the house, go Christmas shopping but also got his homework in on time! See what I mean...amazing!<br />

What are we doing today? Oh nothing much, except making homemade lemonade! I've never made it before and boy does it take p-a-t-i-e-n-c-e, right now we are waiting for the sugary syrup to cool. Savannah and Jackson were more that willing helpers, I'm glad that they're just as excited as me!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: -webkit-auto;">So I'm realizing now that the only times I post is in summer... weird! I love summer though, I hate being cold and wet (which it has been still here in Oregon)...but today the sun is out and it feels awesome. I'm going to tear myself away from the computer and the boys away from Dora and go for a walk. Our family got a membership to the YMCA and we've been swimming like every other night. We got to hang out with family this last weekend and went rafting in Southern Oregon, it was awesome! Savannah's learning to ride her bike without training wheels and she loves making homemade ice cream, that pretty much rocks! I love not having to drop my kids off from school, I love that next Tuesday is $4 admission to Portland Zoo so were going!!! Camping, Swimming, Fireworks, Strawberries, Cherries, Swimming, BBQ's, Swimsuits, Siting On Grass And Not Getting your Bum Wet, Lemonade, Hiking (and not getting wet), Swimming, Biking, Swimming, and yeah Sprinklers...what's not to love!!! </span></div>

And ya' know what the last couple weeks of summer vacation she finally came! As soon as we heard the melodic tune the kids and I scrounged up what cash we had and ran after that truck. It must have looked ridiculous a woman and her three little ones in toe chasing down the ice cream truck! But luckily she saw us and turned back around and our summer dreams finally came true! I can't tell you how excited these lil' ones were! And for a girl who grew up in the country(far away from the luxuries of ice cream trucks and delivery pizza), how excited I was too!</div>amychasingchildrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15661164252276032781noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7710423177916465282.post-30374246109946751852011-08-17T00:06:00.000-07:002011-08-17T00:06:05.015-07:00See this Lil’ Rascal here?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBIvxbT1sU0OSL68K3vtFZSwGnT1yJjYEjf7GuKUJ6ybOgEwm5ztby1q10f9h0gFbywBZWnLPSZV7QUT4xdelxGa-WIDHfteDJ9k5DP23dfqi_8LN1D062d4Qg6S9003jL3hRugNSWNdw/s1600/Amy+new+camera+278.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBIvxbT1sU0OSL68K3vtFZSwGnT1yJjYEjf7GuKUJ6ybOgEwm5ztby1q10f9h0gFbywBZWnLPSZV7QUT4xdelxGa-WIDHfteDJ9k5DP23dfqi_8LN1D062d4Qg6S9003jL3hRugNSWNdw/s640/Amy+new+camera+278.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div><br />
<div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Boopee; line-height: 115%;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Well this morning while I was busy in another room, he reached into his diaper and pulled out some poop! Yes the four letter p-o-o-p! And I had no idea! And my daughter had mentioned to me “umm…mom, Miles is looking for you”. So by the time I saw Miles he was in our poorly lit hallway and I could tell he was distressed about his hands. Lately he’s been pinching his fingers on things or hurting his hands somehow and he ALWAYS wants a MOMMY KISS to make it all better! So I thought, he was playing and must have hurt his hand, so out of habit I bent down and kissed his lil’ hand. To my horror, it smelled a lot like POOP on that sweet angelic hand! That’s when my daughter exclaimed “mom, I don’t think you want to do that” (thanks for the fore-warning Savannah)! Oh my gosh, one of my worst fears was materializing before my very mouth! I must say though, usually I go into all panic mode whenever poop is involved. I’ve been known to up and walk out of my house, get Ben and Jerry’s Magic Brownie Ice Cream, leaving my husband to do the so called dirty work (ok so maybe that only happened once, but I swear I’d do it again if needs be that poop ends up all over my floor(again)-I hates da poop!). But today it must have been one of those miracles I’ve been praying for because I calmly hosed down my loved one, quarantined the culprit’s room, and proceeded to sanitize vigorously sed room. Not to mention the washing, brushing, and gargling of every inch of my mouth. I told my husband, which he thought was hee-larious! And now I’m telling you…I’m not laughing about it yet, but maybe someday I will or I can share this story with his future girlfriends or something!

Today we walked to school and enjoyed all of the trees and their changing colors. It was beautiful, but I have to agree that summer did fly by fast. Mike and Savannah are both in school. And as for me and the boys, we just play "school" and bake pumpkin bread. I love the fall, it's probably my favorite season and I look forward to more pumpkin bread, going to the pumpkin patch, trick-or-treating, drinking cider, making caramel apples, jumping in the hay forts, and all kinds of shenanigans! But I wanted to also post some pictures of our summer shenanigans! So good-bye summer!

Mike is going back to school tomorrow for his bachelors degree at OSU. I am anxious, but not as much as I was earlier this week. I was a wreck then. Ask any members of my family and they'll tell you. But now after going to OSU, purchasing his books, crying a whole lot I am ready. You may wonder why I'm so worked up? I'll give you three good reasons; Savannah, Jackson, and Miles. I am solely responsible for their well being, breaks are going to be far and few between. This mama has got to get on the ball and stay on it. This balancing act is going to take two years. And today, maybe because Mike's giving me a break right now, I say bring it onnnnnn!!!!!amychasingchildrenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15661164252276032781noreply@blogger.com0
