Do I look that young?
THis morning during spin class a girl next to me asked me when I was due. I told her I had 8 weeks left, she said wow! is this your first? I thought "Sweet do I look that young?" Then I also thought "Wait a minute people are having their first kids in their 40's nowadays, so I didn't know if should take it as a compliment or not. When I told her it was my 4th she said "Wow i admire you!!" Well thank you very much!! I usually get the comment of "Haven't you heard of overpopulation? or some such thing like that. So I was feeling pretty good this morning after her comment of admiration, it's about time we mothers get some respect. Too bad it's not the feeling of the majority of people out there. Besides the fact that I am very sore and completely wore out by this time of day, I really do love going to spin and now that's one more reason to keep going! at least for one more month! and then I think I will take a break....

Brooklyn or Emree?

Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!
First day of School!

My Pride and Joy!

Next to my kids this is my pride and joy, I love working in the garden! Chas likes it too, he doesn't have to weed! Actually he always takes care of the kids while I spend time there. It's so nice!
Funny Story 1
Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day.
Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized."
Me: "Why not?"
Brook: "It's too scary."
And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem?
Me: "Whats scary about it?"
Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized."
I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?"
Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar.
So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!
What a handsome boy!

Achoo!

Emree right before a sneeze~
Something"s funny!

I hate those comments, too, about how many kids I have. It's sad, but I think we'll always get that in these days of the average family having 2 kids. Today there was a lady who asked me how many kids I had, and I said 4, and she was like, "Wow!". Umm...she had three kids. That's only one more than you lady. Funny.
I am so impressed that you are still going to spin. Way to go!
♥ I'm with Becky! Way to go you!!! You do look young by the way! :)
