6 year Anniversary

Here we are on our 6 Year Anniversary at Tucanos right before I Passed out and Threw up. Seriously. O.k. so here is the story, we decided to go here to eat and then do sealings at the Temple. It was a great meal and I think my reaction was a combination of I hadn't been remembering to take my Iron supplements and I over ate. We finished our meal and asked the waitress to take our picture. Then while Isaac was paying the bill I felt it coming... the dizziness, the light headedness and the nauseousness. Had I stood up to leave I would have completely blacked out and hit the floor. But I knew it was coming so I put my feet up, someone came to help, and I half way laid down on Isaac. I told the guy helping that I wanted to throw up so he brought me a big tub and then I did. I felt so bad for the people in the Restaurant. I'm sure they feared it was the food, I explained that it was my pregnancy, pulled myself together and then we left. The food was great and I would definitely go back, but talk about a memorable experience. I laid down in the car for a while and then we started driving home. I started to feel better and really wanted to go to the Temple, so I told Isaac to go to the Temple, so he turned around and headed for the Temple. As we were walking into the Temple Isaac and I ran into a Temple worker that happens to be one of the majorly high up's at his company! And the guy recognized Isaac! It was kinda awesome! Had we been any earlier or later, we would have not run into him. So as crappy as it was after our meal, overall it was a great Anniversary and the best part was when we got to Remember our marriage covenant while we did sealings in the Temple. I love you Isaac! Thank you for being the perfect man for me! I am a lucky woman and I can't wait to spend forever with you!

Pre-school Graduation

This year we had a more simple, but very fun and very cute Pre-school Graduation. We were so proud of all the kids and moms they did a great job!

It started with a couple of songs from the Mommy and Me class (this one is old McDonald, Abby had the kitty)

Pre-school field trip

This month in Benjamin's pre-school the kids learned all about ocean animals. And we decided it would be so fun for them to see the ocean animals in person and was a great way to end our school year. They had a little worksheet to do while they went around and they had soo much fun! It was a blast just like our last trip to the Living Planet Aquarium! (click on link to see previous post pics). Here are a few pics from this trip.

The kids

The Sea turtle this time was so active! Swimming right by over and over. The kids just loved it!

This is a familiar picture but the kids wanted to do it again.

Moms & Kids at the end

Mom & Tot and Itty Bitty

Yep, Benjamin did another round of Itty Bitty. This time it was Itty Bitty Baseball! Isaac is not a huge fan of this sport, so he wasn't to thrilled about it. But I decided to put Benjamin in because he was showing a huge interest in Baseball. When I told him we were putting him in Baseball, he was thrilled!! It was two weeks long and ended last Friday. Below are a few highlights.

The Parachute on the last day

They did it!

The other exciting thing was while he was in one gym doing baseball, I decided to put Abby in a Mom & Tot Gymnastics class. She was so excited to be doing something besides watching from the sidelines. She absolutely loved it! Tonight was her Gymnastics meet, they got to march in and wave to the "fans." They then performed all their tricks and finally received a metal at the end. She loved receiving applause and especially loved that Daddy was in the audience. It was super cute! Check out the pictures below. The first ones are from regular class and the last ones are from the meet. Some are from my camera and some are from my friend Yadira's camera.

Chasing Hula Hoops

Practicing a Spring board jump

This is what our girls did a lot of the classes (running around, while Yadira and I took turns chasing them down and hauling them back to class, they were excited)

Warming up before the meet

The march in

The Spring board jump (I only got the before and after because my camera is slow), As you can see Abby got the biggest kick out of the crowd!

She did it!

Boy or Girl?

It's a ..... Girl!!! Wholy cow, were we surprised! My in-laws, aunts, uncles, cousins, my mom and especially Isaac were certain it was boy. So certain, that I too thought it was a boy. Today in the ultrasound, when they said it was a girl, we were so surprised! We couldn't believe it. We are pleasantly surprised, especially me! I can't wait to put her and Abby in little matching dresses! The one who really knew was Benjamin. He said that he wanted another baby sister, and when we would tell him that it might be a baby brother, he would start crying and say "no, it's a baby sister!" He's an awesome Big brother, that's for sure! We can't wait to welcome this precious little one into our home!

Smithfield Health Days

Last weekend, I drove up to Logan with the kids for Smithfield Health Days! Isaac had to go to scout camp, so he couldn't come. But we had a blast! That Saturday it was super Sunny and warm! I got burnt on the one spot I forgot to put sunscreen. It was a fun day, we spent it with my Mom, Uncle Fred, Uncle Pete & Aunt Whitney and of course my adorable nephew Hazen. Here are the highlights...

Waiting for the Parade to start.

Aunt Whitney and Hazen looking so cool

My kids were impressed by something they saw in the parade. They really loved it!

Especially all the candy they got! They made out like bandits!

Then we headed over to the little fair they had, for lunch and some fun. The kids wanted to go down the big slide, but not alone, so I made Uncle Pete go with them.

Aren't they such a cute little family? We are so happy they are back together.

The Train ride was definitely the highlight. Benjamin wanted to ride in the orange one while Abby wanted the blue caboose.

Pete decided to try the Trampoline thing. The kids got a kick out of watching him.

Taking a break

We decided to let them go a second time at the end. This time they decided they wanted to ride together. They are the best of friends.

The last thing that happened on our little trip was Abby got her first haircut. Well, we've cut her bangs several times before but this time she got an official trim. It was long, scraggly, and kind of look like a mullet. So grandma made it strain across in the back, but it is still long. It looks much better.
