Kalli turns 4!
Ms. Kalli turned 4 on Earth Day. It was the year for the girls to have parties. Since I am 9 months with child, I decided to not entertain 3-4 year olds in my home. We had her "Sophia the First" party at the park. I figured as long as the kids got cupcakes and a piƱata, they feel like it was a great party. Kalli had fun playing with her friends at the park and I got to hang out with the moms. It was a nice morning. My friend thought to take pictures at her party (not me), so when she sends me them, then I will post some.
What do I say about Kalli- by far my easiest child, yet likes to push the boundaries. She has always seemed older than her age and now it seems her whole life is going to change now that she is 4. Days leading up to her birthday she kept telling me that she will only do something once she is 4. Kalli is definitely one of the kids now and not the little toddler. She loves to play anything girly with Keia and is my buddy during the day. I love going to lunch with her and she is so easy to run errands with. I am curious to see her as a big sister and no longer the youngest. Kalli you are so sweet and I am so glad that we still have one more year together before you go to school. I can't get enough of your silly faces and big brown eyes. You like to get sassy and stubborn, but it is not very often. I do think you may be the rebel in the family. I love you and look forward to many more birthdays to celebrate with you!

Easter
Jesus Christ was the promised Redeemer of the world, the Savior of mankind, the son of the living God. He was with the Father before He came to earth in mortality, the Creator of the earth upon which we stand.
In His mortal ministry He walked the dusty roads of Palestine, healed the sick, raised the dead, taught His gospel, gave His life on Calvary's Hill, and rose on the third day, a perfected, resurrected being, breaking the bands of death for us all, thus becoming "the first fruits of them that slept."
The Savior paid the price for all of our sins. The prophet Isaiah saw the gift beyond the price of the Atonement of Jesus Christ:
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:4-5)
We testify that Jesus Christ was resurrected and that He lives today as our Savior and Redeemer.

7 weeks
Keia
Mattix
Kalli
I have a little over 7 weeks left before we meet our new little boy. Name is still undecided, but getting closer. This kid loves to go wild at 10 PM every night. I just watch my stomach go totally crazy like he is in a concert, maybe he's reacting to me laughing at Jimmy Fallon every night.
I have mixed emotions about having another baby, but overall I feel really excited. I think about the happiness my kids add to my life and we are going to add to that, but I also think about raising another child in this world when I can't even get myself to go on Facebook. I am a little behind the times. I am excited for another chance, hopefully some of my parenting skills have improved. Here is my list of what I am looking forward to with the new babe, and what I am NOT looking forward to:
Can't wait:
*having him sleep on my chest, love that
*the innocence and excitement of the first five years of life
*baby hair- love the smell and softness- so many kisses on the head
*first smile
*first words and mispronunciations- we let Keia say Keanut Butter until first grade.
*little bodies
*tubbies & blowing bubbles
*being called Mommy
Please Skip:
*potty training!!!
*not sleeping through the night
*teething
*poopy diapers
*tantrums
*fighting with siblings
*18 month olds who are very mobile but cannot communicate
