Here are some pictures from the past couple weeks of the kids. We took the kids to our annual Indian's Game that we share with the McGee/Nixon family. I believe this is out 3rd or 4th year in a row and we ALWAYS have a blast! There are also some pics of the kids and I sharing some much needed time out of the house and enjoying the cooler weather at the park. And finally, there are some pictures of our very happy, very smiley Quin who is just about 12 weeks old! I can't hardly believe it but even in that short amount of time, it's hard to imagine what life was like without him. Enjoy! Make a video - it's fun, easy and free! www.onetruemedia.com

WAY TOO LONG!

Geesh...it's been a while. You'd think I had three kids or something! I suppose I will start off with the 4th of July weekend. We spent it with our close family of friends, the Nixon/McGee family. Saturday the 3rd, we went to "Picnic with Pops" at the Ivey Tech campus here in Bloomington. It was HOT, but Oh so much fun! It was one of our first outings with all three kids to a place where we had to pack up and go. Even though it was in town, it was a bit intimidating for me to think about packing up for the whole family, including a four week old! I am SO glad we did because it was so much fun! We got to see Super Why characters, Hot Air Balloons and Big Band music. But most importantly, fireworks! Here are some pics from that evening: On July 4th, Jessica, Brian and Sabrina came down to have a cookout and let the kids play on our slipnslide. Boy did they have a blast! We didn't even leave the house and the kids had a great time! ...

Quinton: Today was his two week well check, even though he is really three weeks today. His stats were good and he is very healthy! His weight: 8 lbs. 13 oz. (which is two pounds up from when we left the hospital). His height: 21 3/4 inches (which is a quarter of an inch longer than at birth). He is such a "chill" baby. He just loves to look around now that his eye sight is a bit more controlled. He truly only cries when he needs his diaper changed, fed, or when he's falling asleep. He LOVES to have someone near him at all times and LOVES to have someone talk to him. From the beginning of week two, he really got into the routine of eating and falling back asleep during the night hours. He still takes a few, long naps during the day, which gives me time to spend with the older two kiddos. He is such a sweet baby and by far the easiest so far our of the three! I am blessed with that. As for what the toddler years will bring....I don't have to worry about that now becaus...

translation please....

don't get me wrong, Alexa talks very well. but when that girl is on the "phone" all translation is lost. We have some friends, The Pollverini's and Pete is good friends with Chris and the kids LOVE him. Here Alexa is having an important conversation with Pete and the only words I understood in the whole conversation were "you're funny Pete" at the very end of the video. Too Funny! Love this little girl and all her SASS!!!! Make video montages at www.OneTrueMedia.com

Quinton Everett Mobley

Quinton Everett Mobley Born Wednesday June 1,2011 Weight: 7lbs 6oz Height: 20.5 inches Chris picked Quinton and it fits him perfectly. We couldn't be happier. Everett is after Chris' stepmom June Evelyn who passed away too soon. She was a very special person and we love that she can live on in Quinton. We couldn't be more proud to welcome this 'lil guy into our family. I bet you can't tell who is the most proud by the pictures. Enjoy! Make photo slide shows at www.OneTrueMedia.com

having a baby! Today marks the day of induction and we are in full swing. My mom and I arrived early this morning and I've been hooked up to my I.V. for about two hours and I'M FEEL'N IT! While my mom and I checked in and got the induction started, Chris took Landon and Alexa to school. Today is Alexa's first day of preschool and Landon's first day with a new teacher for the summer. Lots of transitions for the day. We only told Landon that his little brother MIGHT come today because I didn't want the drop off at school to be horrible. So, he will be very surprised after school to find out that he indeed will make his appearance. heres a picture of Alexa before school this morning. They did pretty well and Chris called to check on Alexa and they said she had a teary morning but was doing well. Here we are before things get crazy. Probably won't post again until later tonight. 3 cm and feel'n the pain!!!!

sooner than later...

...we will have a baby! I had my 38 week appointment this morning and with some natural progression and some help from the doctor, this baby boy will be making his appearance VERY soon! If he doesn't come on his own before then, looks like next Wednesday, the 2nd of June, we will be holding him in our arms and falling in love with him. We are very ready and very excited! Landon doesn't know yet but when I tell him, he's gonna be pumped! As for the yaywhos here are some pics of them to pass the time until I update again when the baby gets here:) Here is Alexa riding her bike all by herself and very proud of that she is! Daddy taught her how to peddle and she will let you know that very fact if you too get the privledge to watch this great and impressive act! The other day she was even pumping her little legs on her bike up and down the incline of the driveway. And who doesn't have a good time playing with an umbrella? As it's been made clear from the news and reports...
