September pictures

By Martha -
It has been a while since I posted any pictures, so here is our September in pictures.

Marian has been quite into sunglasses lately. In this one she's at "Slotty's" house (thanks for all the babysitting Meg).



Whenever Adam and I put on our sunglasses, she has to put on hers.



BYU football games!! Go Cougs! Currently #7 or #8 (depending on which poll you like) in the nation!


Eating breakfast with Elmo


Adam was ready to leave to school one day with his backpack on and Marian was insistent on wearing her Winnie the Pooh backpack. They looked so cute I had to get a picture.

We had fun at the ward campout. Neither the quantity nor quality of sleep was that great, but we still had a good time.

As you can see in this picture, I finally got to use my T-shirt quilt for something!

And Sunday we drove the Alpine Loop, which was gorgeous! (Sorry this picture isn't gorgeous.) I love living where we get four seasons and beautiful leaves that go along with fall.

That little girl is just too cute!!! and too big. If you could just put all her growing on hold until we see her at Thanksgiving, that would be great...thanks.

Gracie also loves Elmo. I love that Marian loves sunglasses so much. She is a real cutie. Does the alpine loop kind of remind you of hiking with the Hansens? "I has a question... yous ugly".

Moey,
Hi! What fun pictures! Katie and I enjoyed looking at them today. She especially liked the one with "Melmo," and I really liked the camping one where Marian is all snuggly in the tent. It looks like you've been having fun! I hope things are going well at the Kaelberers . . . I'm sure you guys will do great as "parents" of 6!! I wish I were there to help.
Love you! --Carrie

Fun pictures, Mo! I'm anxiously awaiting your blog post about 2 weeks with the Kaelberer kids. Hope you survived! I'm kind of jealous. A little bit. I would have only lasted two days, though.

When in the course of human biological events it becomes necessary for one person to dissolve the umbilical bands which have connected her with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle her, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that I, the father, should declare the statistics and condition of such individuals so separated....... so here is my post: Sunday morning: 0330: Martha, who has been contracting, wakes Adam. 0330: Adam, who is happy to hear that contractions are coming, is nevertheless content to lie in bed for a little longer. 0330-0350: Adam and Martha time contractions at 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes apart. 0400: Contractions increasing in strength. 0410: Joe arrives to watch Marian. 0415: Martha is not enjoying contractions which are strong and consistent by now. 0416: Joe's expression shows that he's never seen a woman in labor. 0420: Adam and Martha leav

Hello world!

Look at me, doing a blog post and joining Facebook in the same week! I guess it's time for an update since it's only been four months. I'll start with Liv. I can't believe she's already 4+ months old! She is doing great! I feel so blessed that she is so healthy and developing perfectly so far. In the last week she has started rolling over (multiple times so she ends up far away from where I put her) and grabbing things. She has also decided she doesn't like nursing from mommy. :( We'll see how long I can stand pumping... Usually she is a happy little person, but in the last two weeks she has screamed for an hour+ straight while being babysat (sorry Ang and Anne-Marie!). What a stinker! I told Adam she could write a book called, "How to Lose Friends and Frustrate People." At least she's good for me. Here are some recent pictures. She gets lots of attention from her adoring older sisters. Sometimes she's painfully aware that being the thir

And we're having...

By Martha -
another GIRL!!! We are really excited. She was so cute on the ultrasound--my favorite part was her little foot (measuring 3.5 cm right now). She wasn't doing flips and cartwheels like Mini was on her ultrasound so maybe she'll be a little mellower, more like Emmy. Most importantly, she looks healthy and her growth is right on. The only disappointment is that they didn't move my due date up at all. I was hoping to be moved up a week--away from Halloween. That's OK. The tech said she's actually measuring for November 1 so maybe I'll try to hold out for November 2 or 3. Seeing her made me so excited to get to meet her! As much as I don't love being pregnant, I'm so excited to have another little bundle to hold!
