Let's get this party started...

Hello Big Whale...



Right outside the Newport Aquarium...Molly wouldn't join them!



Me too...




Show off 40 year old guy....whew! can you believe this guy is FORTY???



Miss Shortypie



Levi's getting tall...



Mel is now officially taller than me.


Ethan is catching up to Will's height quickly...



Will was sleepy...

I know I promised to get the Cincy trip pix up on here....and not to disappoint...here are a few highlights of our Monday at the Newport Aquarium....

In other news...

David's big 40th Birthday Skating Bash will be taking place on Saturday, March 19, 2011 (a little over a week away) from 5-7 p.m. I've tried to send out a mass email and I'm sure I will miss some folks in the hubbub...so if you check this blog, and you know us and want to come skate to some mad 80's tunes at Wheels of Wonder, Indy...we'd love to see you there! Admission is covered, all you have to pay for is skate rental ($3.00)!

Seriously...gonna do a pregnancy update now...so if this isn't your thing, you can leave now....but I kinda use my blog to keep track of our lives....and since this is my last pregnancy, I need to make sure I'm doing that...

I think our fourth son is in the midst of a growth spurt. Shellee, you may be able to answer this since you are almost a mom of NINE...but man, I don't remember my other kids growing over night. YIKES! I started out with a big kid (Will, 8 lbs, 11 oz) and I have a feeling that the other side of boy sandwich is going to end big....please tell me I'm incorrect. He is all. over. the. place. literally....and I have 3 more months to go. oy vey.

choose joy. this too shall pass. and then I will miss it. (or will I?) I'm extremely thankful to the Lord above for this pregnancy. Whatever I may convey on my blog or on Facebook. I truly am. It's amazing how much we can let our circumstances affect our JOY. Forgive me. Spring or no spring...I have so very much to be praising Him for. I really do. And this little nameless boy is high up on my list!

I will see midwife next Monday at 10 a.m. I pray she tells me I'm measuring big so will have this dude in EARLY June. yah baby.

Ok, on that note...I hope to be back tomorrow or the next day to post the rest of our trip pix! Hope that this Wednesday finds you happy, healthy and thankful. good night...

What a beautiful family! I had promised myself that I wouldn't comment on all three blogs since I saw them on the same day, and maybe, I could "appear" normal. Well, I just couldn't resist. I love seeing you in pix, and it's hard to believe that you will be delivering baby #6 in June. Moo is just adorable, and Levi is funny in his slouching position. Mel is cute resting on Will, and the Will and E are taller than I even knew. Wowza, these pix were eye-opening. ;)

Praying that ya'll get some sun and spring.

Okay, so I said that I wasn't even planning on commenting on all three, now, I have another comment/question. You mentioned the burpee catalogue; so, I went online and found burpee. Do you order directly from burpee? If you do, do you just get seeds or do you ever spring for the plants? I think that I am just going to grow tomatoes this year and get other things from the farmer's market. But, I still want to grow a variety that our local store doesn't have. So, I wanted to see what you thought. No rush on the comment, just polling you. smile
