Last belly shot before Aaron

These last 2 months of my pregnancy have been exhausting.  Carrying around a baby in this heat is not fun.  I can't wait for this baby to be born:

 I have the best mother-in-law ever.  She is here for 6 weeks to help our family adjust to being a family of 7:

These kids love there Nana:

Baby Shower

These lovely people threw a shower for me and a friend:

Thanks Kristi, Sariah, and Valene everything was delicious and fun:

It was fun to share a shower with Bethany:

Kenzie is by far the most excited for this baby to come.  How could I not bring her along?  She loved every minute of it:

Kenzie's love for babies

We got a car seat for baby #5, Kenzie plays with it every day.  How she is strong enough to carry the car seat with the base attached is amazing to me:

 Kate likes to join in every now and then and pretend to be a mom.

Mason

At 2 1/2 years old this cute boy is potty trained:

He can also pump on a swing, and pedal a bike.  This kid is amazing.  He can't tell you his colors or count higher than 10, but when it comes to going and doing this kid has no limits.

Kate turned 5

Our dear Kate turned 5 today.  This girl is cut from a different mold.  We call her Crazy Kate, because that is just what she is.  Always thinking outside the box and loving life.  For her birthday she got a bug collection kit, because she loves getting dirty and playing with living things she finds outside: 

 A stuffed horse, which she loves:

 A Whoopee Cushion which she can't get enough of:

 Always being crazy, yet still loving to dress girly:

 She doesn't like cake so she requested brownies:

 Isn't her long curly hair gorgeous:

I love your crazy ways even though some days I think I am going to go crazy because of you.  You are a joy to have.
