Christmas and Three weeks

Grandma May made Christmas dresses again this year. I found a sweater for Bear (haven't had to do that before), The Girls look beautiful and Bear is adorable.

Three Generations

Three generations of handsome Bosted men.
Dan doesn't usually smile for pictures but, he hasn't stopped smiling since Bear was born.

Two Weeks

Can you tell I have only one thing on my mind.
He's just so darn cute.
Boys are a whole new world.
He has peed on the couch because we didn't get the diaper on fast enough.
He eats a ton.
And when we visited the doctor yesterday for his two week, he had gained a pound, and grown 21/2 inches.

So in love with him.

One week

This little boy eats a ton!!!
He already feels like he has gained weight.
He is so adorable and all I want to do is sit and stare at him.
He is extremely loved by his sisters.
And, daddy can't stop smiling.

Guilty Pleasure

Is it bad that this show is my new guilty pleasure?



Of course Neil Diamond has always been a guilty pleasure.

Whiner

Why is it that at the end of your pregnancy all you want to do is whine and complain?
I keep telling myself to suck it up...
but,
All I want to do is whine, eat and sleep.

Wait I sound like a kid.

Not good.

Fulfilled

Remember the Bet?
Well, Dan fulfilled his part of it.
It ended up being a great day for him, The Bears won!!!
If you can't read his hat it says, "Greenbay Sucks".
Thanks to Doug for inviting him to go with him.

Soccer

Sabrina and Sophia are little soccer players, much to there Daddy's dismay. Here is the proof.

We spent a fun Saturday morning at the soccer fields. Sabrina did okay for her first game. Sophie cried and said the guy in charge of the Tiny Tots soccer was scary.

Next Saturday we will once again be at the fields watching the girls.

Much to daddy's dismay.

Been trying to post

I have been trying to post for a couple of weeks.

I have tons of pics....

Of us at the river,
hiking to a cave,
and the girl's first day of school.

But, for some reason I am having a hard time posting pics.

Hopefully I figure it out soon.

A Bet

Earlier today my sister Susan did a cute post about Dan.

But, I felt I should clear up some confusion about a cheese head.

About a month ago Dan and his friend Ryan made a bet. Ryan told Dan if it was a boy that he had to wear a Green Bay Packer's shirt to the Chicago Bears game in Seattle.
Dan is a HUGE Chicago Bears fan.

Dan told Ryan if it was a girl (we were sure it was) that he had to fly a Seattle Seahawk's flag outside their house. Ryan is a HUGE Oakland Raiders fan.

The outcome has been decided and even though Dan lost he still feels he won.

The Baby is.............

It's a ............

BOY!!!!!

I about fell off the ultrasound table.

Dan has not stopped smiling since we found out. I could post a pic of the evidence but not sure if I want that out there.

Four year old

I know this little girl.... we will call her Sophie. Mommy has been tired lately and not feeling so hot. She is a sweet and very good girl. There are days when she gets into things. For instance the day she got into the salt AND pepper and dumped it all over daddy's recliner, AND her bed (when asked why she put it in her bed she told me it was because it tickled her feet). Then there was day she popped all the keys off of my brand new laptop. Or the day she went outside while I was laying down. I still have no answer for that one. Mommy doesn't take naps any more unless daddy is home.

I love this little girl.

What have I done?!

There are moments when you wonder.....How did this happen?

I don't want to sound ungrateful. Or that I am not excited, how about unexpected?

Unexpected is a better word for what we feel.

We found out at the end of March the same day my sister had her baby. And about 3 weeks before Dan's sister had her baby. We didn't tell anyone because well, It's not the first and well it's exciting but, others needed to be taken care of.

So if you haven't guessed the end of of November or December 1st, a new addition will be in our family, and since we have four girls, we figure another girl is on her way to our house.

I am a Stalker

I am a Stalker.

Not a bad stalker, just one of those that likes to look at others websites to get ideas.
(I don't plagerize)

I was looking at a site earlier today and they had a cartoon on there from this site, that has way too much humor that is true to life. Mormon life specifically.

My favorite this week (it's not a kid)

This celeb has consistently been my fave since the beginning. I think it's because she has handled herself with such class. This is my favorite dance this week.

Sariah's new look

It happened one of our children ended up with glasses. Of course when your parents are both blind what do you expect. Dan say's she is to beautiful and needs to be locked in a room. But what dad doesn't say that about his daughters?

Easter

Aren't they beautiful in their dresses. They're even all smiling and no one's crying.

Slacker

I know I need to post......

But I have been busy,

First it rained then it snowed then hail then sleet then sun.
All in the same day!

Then the sun came out and it warmed up and well we have been outside playing in the grass and enjoying the nice weather, and watching the tulips and flowers pop up.

Then in the true spirit of Spring.

Two little babies have been born.

One Nephew. I will call him Lord of the Chubby Cheeks.

and

One Niece, she's to new to have a nickname.
(and all the pics are on Dan's laptop)

Now I am off to take Sabrina to school and to hopefully post pics of Easter, but for some reason I am having problems posting pics. Will have to ask Dan for help.

DWTS

This weeks Dancing with the Stars was pretty good. I liked Melissa and Tony's Lindy Hop and I thought that Lil Kim and Derek did a great job on their Argentine Tango. My cutest couple award goes to Chuck and Julianne, because seriously could they be any more cute???? My favorite dance of the whole two days was Chelsie and Ty. She has this amazing energy and she (I think) brings out the best in Ty.

Tell me what you think.

Spring Break

Spending the week at Aunt Cari and Uncle Steve's. Girls are going to be playing with cousins.....hopefully there will be no deaths ;). Will post pictures of the girls playing with cousins when I can.

I am thankful for Prophets

Dan shared this audio with me tonight. I don't like to post political things, that's Dan's job. But, this touched me because it was said by a Prophet of the Lord. I am thankful for a Prophet and I am thankful for the gospel in my life.

I am thankful to live in a free country but, I also think that we need to continue to fight to make sure we stay a free country. Not only for our children but, for our grandchildren. My grandparents fought in wars in other countries so that we could have the freedoms that we enjoy. Thank you Grandpa Lantz, Grandma Hunsaker, Grandpa May. Thank you to my Uncles who fought for our country. Thank you to my Brother-in-law for his willingness to serve our country. On Dan's side I say thank you to his Dad, his Uncles and his Grandpa Clinkscales for serving our country.

Sharing time ideas

Being in the Primary presidency means that once a month I get to do sharing time. I want to do something this week that will get the kids ready for General Conference. With Senior Primary this is not a big deal but, what do I do for Junior Primary? I have been looking here and, there are some really good ideas just not sure how to make it translate to kids that can barely sit still for 5 minutes. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Sweet Children

Last night we went to our friends the Smith's for Sunday dinner. While there Sabrina decided that she needed to jump (yes, jump) down 5 stairs. She got a bloody lip for a souvenier. After the blood was cleaned up she started complaining that it hurt to step on her foot. Which she prodeeded to milk the rest of the night. This morning she woke up and still wouldn't walk on it. And when mommy touched it she yelled and cried. I then made an appt for the doctor. She had an X-Ray. And the results came back saying she only had a sprain. HURRAY!!!!! Now if I could just get her to walk on it..........

Disclaimer

I have been asked several times if Dan watches Dancing with the Stars with us. The answer is NO, not only NO but heck NO. So to clarify Dan runs into the other room as soon as the t.v comes on to this show. And he likes to make fun of us and tell us we are silly girls. When you live in a house of girls this is what you get.

It's Back!!

Dancing with the Stars is back. Who's your new favorite? I can't decide between cute little Shawn Johnson (love her!), Stylish Melissa Rycroft (love her smile), or Super cute couple Julianne Hough and Chuck Wicks. I was, however, NOT impressed with the judges the last two times they were scoring. I felt that they were too excited about some celebs and not so about others (i.e. Steve-O, Belinda Carlisle, David Alan Grier, etc.)

My favorite dance of this week was by Chelsie Hightower and Dmitri Chaplin. I also loved LOVED Jewel's version of "over the Rainbow"

My daughters

Some day when my daughters are grown, I hope that Dan and I have taught them to stand up for what they believe in a way that is very articulate. I also hope that we have taught them that God knows who they are and that he loves them unconditionally. I recently saw this video on a blog that I frequent.

Day of Faith: Personal Quests for a Purpose - 3. Rachel Esplin from Harvard Hillel on Vimeo.
I pray that as my daughters grow that they to can have strong testimonies of their faith.

She's cute, what can I do?

I have tried to think of a punishment for her cutting her hair. But, she is so cute that I just can't think of one. And that fact that she told me she cut her hair so that it would look like Sabrina's, well what am I supposed to do?

Here she is as cute as can be and looking awfully proud of herself.

Why?!?!?!?!?!

Exhibit A:


Why is it that these little scissors can cause so much damage. And this is just a fraction of the hair the rest I had to vacuum up, and I'm still picking it off of the couch and my clothes, and Savannah who happened to be near the perpetrator.

Exhibit B:

Exhibit C:

Does she look afraid to you?

Exhibit D:

The verdict is out on her punishment, but since mommy had to go to the other room so that she wouldn't laugh after she found the mess.......

Tomorrow we have an appt to fix the hair. Will post after pictures.

silly mommy

Better check the photos here. Cause the link won't work

Valentine's

Valentine's came and Daddy recieved a new camera for his gift. And mommy recieved a new netbook, which makes daddy happy cause he doesn't like to share his laptop. Daddy took pictures this weekend check them out here. Today we woke up to snow, I keep wondering if the weather is ever going to get warm.

Another Hiatus,,,,,,,

My goal at the beginning of the year was that if I have a blog I have to post at least once a week. I was doing okay and then it was decided I had to have my gallbladder removed (blech). So I forgot to post something telling who is who on the clones blog, and now that I'm feeling better.......

The answer to the Clones:

Sabrina (she always had a bruise of some sort on her head)
Savannah
Sophia
Sariah

I am feeling better since having four holes little holes cut on my stomach and having a major organ sucked out. I'm not in pain anymore, now I am just trying to figure out what I can and can't eat. Any suggestions?

Clones

The other day we received a request from Sabrina's teacher for a baby pic. We started going through pics and realized that we could only tell some of the pics apart by the background. So we decided to do a test to see if anyone can tell the difference.

First pic:

Second pic:

Third pic:

Fourth pic:

Family can guess but they probably already know which ones are which the rest of you good luck.

New Year, New Look

You know those moments when everything overwhelms you and you need a break from things that are extra? That's what happened with the blog. I took the month off. We celebrated Sabrina's 6th B-day on the 17th. Gama Bama called and informed me she was coming to pick up the girls on the 19th (school's out). Can't tell grandma no. (And if you find someone who can, send them my way). We used that weekend to finish Christmas shopping, sewing, and wrapped all of our presents. I think this should be a yearly thing. Don't tell my sisters they'll be mad.

The look of our blog, well if you don't know Dan then..... Yes, I know the Bears are done (rub it in dirt bag). Dan is a loyal, die hard fan. And we love daddy and we support them for him.

On New Years Day, Gama Bama and Bampa came and we had snacks and watched football. And Bampa helped the girls build a snowman.

Now the girls are back in school and mommy couldn't be happier. Now if we could just get rid of the cold weather, all would be good.
