34 Weeks!!!

Okay, so I know I just made a new post YESTERDAY but my sister that lives in Arizona wanted to see an updated pic of my BIG BELLY! So, I went to my 34 week check up yesterday and everything looks good, except that I am measuring 36 weeks instead of 34!!! AAHHH!!! My doctor didn't seem worried. He said it could just be the way that the baby is lying inside or it could be that I am having a BIG BABY! Since Saige was 8 lbs 12 oz, I am thinking it is a big baby....So, we will see. He said that he would start me a week early but I am not sure if I want to or not. They did start me a week early with Misha and she was smaller, which was NICE. I would kind of like to just go into labor on my own though, BUT, if I keep measuring bigger at my next checkups, I will probably change my mind! So, we will see what happens!!! Oh, and for those that have not seen my new hair, Yes, I went dark, and I just got a few inches chopped off yesterday by my friend Ashley that I went to beauty school with, we trade off doing each others hair. I colored it myself though. Rich wanted me to go dark for a change, which is weird because he usually likes it really blonde! Also, last Thursday we had a huge box on our front porch from UPS that had all these diapers and wipes in it. My mom and sister Kym ordered them from diapers.com or somewhere and had them sent to us! THANK YOU thank you ThAnK yOu!!!

Easter!!!

On Saturday we went to Rich's sister Jennifer's house and had a little dinner and Easter hunt for the kids. The kids were excited to go find the eggs, even though it was a little cold.
On Easter Sunday the kids woke up WAY to early!!! Saige was so excited for the EASTER BUNNY to come and I think they got us out of bed at 7:00 a.m. After they found their easter baskets and eggs we put on one of their new movies, Saige got Enchanted in her Easter basket and Misha got the new barbie Mariposa movie, and Rich and I went back to sleep for a little bit. I couldn't sleep too long though because I had to finish preparing my sharing time for primary and I was also attempting to cook a nice meal that day since we weren't going to my mom and dad's house. The dinner turned out pretty good actually, I was kind of impressed with myself. I cooked my first Turkey ever and I even made a STRAWBERRY pie, the crust and everything! We ran out of time to get any pics of the girls dressed up cute for church and by the time church was over I forgot to even get the camera out, so no cutesie pics of them but oh well! It turned out to be a fun day anyway!
I thought this picture was funny of Misha trying to get an egg out from it's hiding place behind the couch! The girls were so excited, it was fun to watch them!

What a Fun night!!!

Last night Jade and I took Saige, Misha, and Porter to Disney Princesses on Ice. Marli was suppose to be the one who came but the poor little girl has been so so sick, So Porter came instead. It was so fun to watch and I think the kids loved it!!! Saige and Misha were loving watching the princesses and Misha said "The Princess waved at me because she thinks I am beautiful!" Every time a new princess would come out Misha would get so excited and start waving and saying Hello to whatever princess it was...SO CUTE!!! I think Porter liked it too but he was getting restless by the end. When all the princesses came out at the end and everyone was oohing and aweing Porter said "Oh my heck, I hate this!" He is such funny boy!!! You would have had to heard how he said that too, becuause he was saying it like how everyone else was saying "Oh, look at all the princesses." It was a lot of fun and despite getting lost when we went out the wrong door, it all worked out pretty good. Jade's sister Brynn and her friend were also there with their little girls. My pictures didn't turn out that great because of the lighting and I was juggling my enormous pregnant stomach with Misha on my lap most of the night plus her slushie that she just had to have....

Misha, Saige, and Porter. He wouldn't look at the camera for me long enough and Misha wouldn't smile for me, so this is the best pic I could get of the 3 of them... Aren't they all just cute anyway???
Saige was happy to get a tinkerbell spinny toy... It was all she could think about once she saw them.
Tinkerbell was one of their favorites besides Ariel and of course Cinderella!!!
The Grand Finale!!!!

Bunk Beds!!!

In preparation for our new baby, the girls get to share a room! We decided that bunk beds would give us the most space, so here they are! Rich put them together and it took 2 nights to get them completely finished. Saige slept in Misha's room in their tent while the beds were being built while Misha slept the last couple nights in her crib before getting her "Big girl bed"....She is quite attached to her crib but we are trying to convince her to give it to the new baby. I think she is okay with the idea now, we will see...



Misha and Porter singing "Twinkle twinkle" in Saige's karaoke machine.



The finished project...Nice job Rich!




Marli, Porter and Misha checking out the top bunk while Saige is at school. They think it is pretty fun up there.

Saige loving the top bunk!







Misha's first night in her "Big girl Bed"....She is looking unsure....But she made it through the night without waking up once! Well, after I checked on them the first time she was still awake and said she wanted to go in her crib but I told her she is a big girl now and gets to sleep with Saige in their new big girl room, she was fine after that! Let's hope it continues!




The only problem is that Saige is an early riser and Misha isn't, so we are trying to teach Saige how to be so quiet when she gets up so Misha will stay asleep. Somedays it works and somedays it doesn't. The days is doesn't, Misha definetly still needs a nap!!!!!!

By the way.....

The previous post about the wannabe rockstar was posted by RICH the ROCKSTAR himself made to look like it was me his LOVING and SUPPORTIVE wife who posted it, when in actuality it was just him....I do NOT complain about him playing in the band and leaving me home with the kids!!!! At least not much, anyway!!!! I think it is great that he has a hobby that he enjoys and it also makes us some extra $$$$$ from time to time. I just wanted to clarify this so people don't think that I am really as ronchy as he made me sound....Thanks alot HONEY!!!!!!

Life Style of the Wannabe Rock Star, that I married

All Rich does when he gets home from work is hang out in his recording studio and play the guitar. He sleeps in until 1:00 on the weekends, he never helps around the house and is lazy. In the summers he golfs all days and plays in his band at night, while I am left home to raise the kids and clean the house. Here are some pictures to prove it.

Just waking up on a Saturday and heading into the studio, typical.....(notice the bed head) proof!


I was probably home taking care of the kids and mopping the floor when this picture was taken.
I was probably getting the kids to bed and watching Desperate Housewives when this picture was snapped.
