Happy Halloween

Here is Jenna the day of Halloween. We saw this shirt at Wal-Mart and she wouldn't let us put it down. It lights up every time she moves. Happy Halloween!

Pumpkins

The kids and I painted pumpkins today for Halloween. Graham and Tucker weren't so sure about it until they saw Brett having fun and then they were all about it. We had messy fun!

Moving

Matt and I found a new apartment yesterday! Its only about a year old and it has all new appliances! We love it. So we are in the process of moving in between both of our crazy schedules. It happened so fast that my old apartment wasn't even close to ready when Matt and Joey started moving things over. I'll be happy when it's all said and done. Pics to come....

Doctor's Appointment

I went to the doctor today. They couldn't find the heartbeat so they had to do an ultrasound. The same thing happened with Jenna so I wasn't worried. My doctor wanted me to have one anyway. She likes me! :) Everything looks good. My iron is really low and my placenta is really low but nothing to worry about. (It just means I get another ultrasound next time too! Oh darn.) They even moved my due date up to May 3! Yes!

Got the word...

In July we got the phone call that Matt's unit was being put on alert to go overseas. We were upset but we always knew that was a possibility because of the war. We weren't given much information about the deployment except that it would be 12 months. So we've been waiting in fear of when the next phone call would come.

This morning at formation at Matt's monthly drills they were given the mobilization orders. July 17, 2009. Afghanistan. 12 months.

We are about to go into unknown territory. One day at a time is all I can do....

Aunt Amber

I'm officially an aunt! Hailey Marie Hale was born on October 22, 2008 at 2:13pm. She weighs 7 lbs and 4 oz and she is 20 in. long. (Jenna was the same weight and only 1/2 in longer!) We are so happy she is finally here. Kasey and Hailey are both doing great!

The Boys!

Since before Jenna was born, about 3 weeks before to be exact, I've been keeping the Campbell boys. Blake went to Kindergarten last year so he isn't home with us much but Brett(3), Graham(2), and Tucker(2) are always with me. They are so much fun to watch learn and grow. Jenna adores them, especially Graham. I am so happy that she is around other children. It's interesting when she is around girls...she just stares at them. We are always around boys and I think she likes it that way! Yes, I have my hands full but I honestly love my job. I love being around the kids and I love the fact that I get to keep Jenna with me and still work too(getting to watch Ellen everyday is a plus too!). Having another baby on the way kinda freaks me out because at times I could have 6 kids at the same time. Wow. I can do it though. I did it when Jenna was a newborn...I can do it again. Anyways, here are pictures of the kids throughout the time I've been keeping them.
