It's A Boy!!

It finally happened, and no I am not talking about me updating my blog ;)! Kade Steven Kimball was born into this world on July 22, 2010. 6 LONG days after he was supposed to make his big arrival. I wish that I could go into detail and tell you where I was when my water broke, or when my contractions started, but it is not that exciting. It was all in the hospital. I had to be induced. So, at 4:00 am that morning I walked into labor and delivery and at 8:56 am we welcomed our beautiful baby boy of 7 lbs 11 oz and 21 1/2 inches long. Phew! Was I relieved to FINALLY get that little guy out of me, but now the fun has begun. Sleepless nights, countless poopy diapers, and everything else that goes along with a newborn. But, I LOVE IT!

One proud big brother!

4 Years Already?

It is hard for me to believe that Jason and I will be married for 4 wonderful years tomorrow, March 10th! Then I look back and think... has it really only been 4? So many things have changed/happened since that wonderful cold day on March 10th, 2006. Here is a flashback of those 4 years.

• We were married in March (as I have said 3 times now, haha) and one month later on April 3 we found out that we would be expecting our first child. Kinda crazy, I know!


• On November 30th, 2006 we welcomed to the world a beautiful little boy. We named him Braden LaRon Kimball.


• September 19, 2007 we found out that we were going to be having another baby... to our surprise!


• In January of 2008 we moved to Grace where Jason started working with his grandpa at the family fish hatchery.


• Two months later, and a day shy of my 21st birthday we bought and moved into our first house! What a great birthday present!


• Sometime in May Jason quit the fish hatchery and started working for Utah Power and Light as a summer temp.


• On May 20, 2008 after much frustration I finally gave birth to another beautiful boy, Carter Jason Kimball. He was two days past due!


• Two months later Braden gave us a scare and fractured his arm above the elbow and had to have surgery :(


• Jason went back to the fish hatchery after the Utah Power job ended. Needless to say this would not last long.


• A few months later Jason got a job with Coca Cola.


• A few months... again... and we decided that things weren't working out very well job wise and we decided Jason should go back to school!


• November 2009 we found out that we were expecting our third child!


• On February 18, 2010 we found out that that third child was also going to be our third boy! I am going to have my hands full!


• On March 10, 2010 we will celebrate our 4th Anniversary!

Like I said before... what a wonderful/crazy 4years!

I LOVE YOU JASON!

And baby #3 is...

It's a BOY!!!

Updates...

So... I know that it has been a while since I have last posted, and I have so many pictures that it would be a major overload. I guess that I will just share some of the bigger news. First of all... Jason and I are going to have another little one in July (I know, I know. The middle of the summer)! We are very excited, but a little nervous to have three little squirts running around giving their mother stress. Braden is especially excited because he thinks that he will be getting a baby sister (which Jason keeps trying to brain wash him into thinking that it will be another brother). I guess that we will just have to see. I have about another month until we can know for sure. All that I ask is that whatever that little bundle of joy is,I hope that he/she is healthy. What more could a mother ask for, right?!!

Braden is now three and has graduated into primary. He still isn't sure what to think about it because they don't have all if his favorite cars in his Sunbeams class, but he will get used to it. I just hope that he will start paying attention instead of turning around and waving to me every five minutes. Haha!

Carter is now 20 months and has already started to prove the middle child syndrome theory to be correct (I can say this because I, too, am a middle child). He absolutely refuses to go to nursery. He has turned into this cute little monster that is absolutely in love with his daddy. It is so hard to get mad at that cute little blondie!

Halloween Fun... and other stuff!

So, it has been a while since I last posted. I haven't had the desire to do any new posts and considered giving up the whole blogging idea, but I decided that I had better not. I enjoy seeing what everyone has been up to, so I guess that there is someone out there that may like to see what we have been doing. Jason is doing well with school. It has been a hard transition, going back to the whole poor school family thing and all, but I just have to think about the big picture! We have pretty much given up on selling out house seeing as we have not showed it once since we got a realtor. That is OK with us though. Braden and Carter are getting bigger and bigger every day. Braden will be 3 this month and Carter will go to nursery this month too! Kinda a big month for us. We also have a new addition to our family, and no it is not a new baby! We decided that the kids needed an indoor dog since the one we have outside is way to big for them to play with. He is a little Yorkie and we decided to name him Beau, since that is an easy name for our kids so say.
For Halloween I had to work and Jason's family was out of town so we decided instead of going to Poky, we would just do our own thing here and it turned out to be way fun. The kids really enjoyed getting tons of candy. Carter never really warmed up to the idea of having complete strangers talk to him, but he loved the candy. Braden could care less to say trick-or-treat, he just went straight to the candy. It was kinda funny. I think that I have the cutest little fireman and little devil out there!

BabYSitTINg FUn!

So for this school year I was asked if I could watch a little girl named Melodie (or Mel). She is a little sweetie. I am having to get used to the clingyness (is that a word?) of a little girl, but it has been good. Today at lunch everyone was singing so I decided to let them have some fun. I got some cute videos of my boys singing and a cute one of Mel and Braden dancing to Braden's nursery rhymes. I love little kids!!!

Gettin' ready

Like father, like son

Weird, I know! But for some reason Jason and Alyssa love to "hunt bats." I enjoy watching them make fools of themselves so I let them do it. Haha. I captured a few good pictures... ENJOY!
