MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Here is Ezekiel in the little Santa suit that Christopher wore when he was a baby. He makes it look cute if I do say so myself. :)

Ezekiel is here!

We are very excited to welcome Ezekiel to our family! He was born on December 19th at 1:51 pm weighing 8 lbs. 9 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. His brothers were very excited to meet him! We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas! We are so blessed and grateful to have 4 healthy beautiful boys this year.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

WHAT'S NEW WITH US... It's a waiting game now! T-minus 4 weeks until my due date so the next post should be all about the new baby! We're very excited so keep an eye out! Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Almost done! I'm at 36 weeks now!

The Christmas tree is up and ready to go along with the little train that goes around it.

We added a little stocking for the baby this year, since Santa can't give him candy he'll have to wait til next year for his big stocking.

We did the annual painting of the cookies a little early this year, but they always have a blast doing it!

Elijah is very proud of his fish. :)

We also tried something different this year and made some "Turkey" cookies.

We've only had one snowfall so far this year and it melted pretty quickly but the boys enjoyed it while it lasted.

Almost 2 weeks ago the boys' Uncle Kevin left for the MTC. He will be on his way to Florida in a couple of days! They got one last picture with him the night before he left.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Our three little monsters!!

I was planning on doing a different costume for Enoch for Halloween, but he immediately wanted the Spiderman costume that he spotted as I was taking our decorations and costumes out this year. Here's a short performance from him, it was pretty cute.

The second video is from the night we carved our pumpkins. We found "monster suckers" at the store and bought them for the boys. A bit of hilarity ensued. :)

The boys' costumes for this year. Enoch was Spiderman, Ephraim was a ninja and Elijah was a jedi.

This was my costume. I wanted to do something fun since I have a pretty prominent belly this year. It got a few laughs and I even got some candy in my little pumpkin while trunk or treating!

 

These were our pumpkins for this year: Mummy, Cat, Monkey and Demon.

We went on a short hike for one Family Home Evening. The fall colors have been beautiful this year!!
 

 

All About Elijah!

Two teeth gone! He lost both top teeth within a week of each other! We know what song we will be teaching him for Christmas this year!! We have all been amused recently with his inability to make an "S" sound.

One tooth gone...

Elijah started 2nd grade this year! Here is the picture I took on the first day!

Fun End of Summer Stuff

Josh's little brother Kevin received his endowments and his mission call. He will be leaving in November to serve in the Tallahassee, Florida mission! Here we are with Kevin and Josh's other brother Curtis and wife Trenna in front of the Logan Temple. Kevin is very excited!

Also this summer we were able to get a newer van, it will be very nice for us all with the new baby coming. We are very grateful that "The Beast" as we lovingly call her has lasted us so long, more than we were expecting anyway. :)
 

Here He Is!!

Yep, another boy! In a few short months I will break the family record for how many boys in a row I have, pray for my sanity! :) We are excited, he looks and sounds very healthy and we are very thankful for that. We are so blessed to have another boy to raise in the gospel, guess we'd better start mission funds huh?

Here is a picture of his feet.

He definitely has the Smith profile, look at that cute little nose!

This one shows the chambers of his heart and his heart beat.

...and here is the incriminating evidence! He wasn't shy at all!
