and...i'm back.

before two nights ago and after my mean people suck post i didn't have the energy or the inspiration to blog.

being pregnant this time around has been tough.  and i only just found out, right?

i went to the doc on tuesday and found out i am eight weeks.

EIGHT WEEKS?  that's it?

finding out early always makes for a LOOOOONG pregnancy.

and lots of sickness. oh, the sickness.
nauseousness and vomiting. oy!

so, baby number five will be here on or about september one.

what have we been up in our homestead??  lots.

get ready for pictures...lots and lots of pictures.



{coloring with daddy}


{daddy took jett out for some one on one time}


{making dinner}


{party daydreamer}


{the only way i'll ever hear about his time at war is when he's with his battle buddies. only way.}


{a couple that paints together...}


{let's ride.}


{cupcakes. in a cup. with a spoon.}


{cousin birthday parties are awesome.}


{cousins.}


{angry bird beanies are the best. especially for a little boy who loves agray birds!}


{math game night. jett begged to go. i think he likes his new school.}


{hole-y tights and tutu's. it's how we do dance. at least until i get to the store for new tights.}


{that man. he makes my heart skip a beat.}


{it's pinewood derby time!!}


{lips. smothered with far too much {mckinley added} lipgloss.}


thank you all for your kind words on my mean people post.
it really isn't about the chevron fabric.
it isn't even about that one girl who said that to me.
it's about people not taking into account other people's feelings.
we have a tendancy to hide behind our computers. say what we want and think it's ok.
again, i just ask for us to be nice.
{i'm done with it now.}


there will not be so much time between this and my next post. pinky promise.



i'm linking up with jeannett over at life rearranged.
