WOW!

So a ton has happened since we went from 5 to 6 in our family!  Here is a recap since I updated last! 

Here are my sweeties at the Zoo!  We love the ZOO!

We had a ton of fun at Lagoon this year!  The kids rode a lot of rides!!

Then this little boy joined us and SHOOK the place up!! (In a GREAT way!)

He had to spend a little time in the NICU but we all survived!!

A visit from his sisters!

Home at last!

Max couldn't wait to meet his little brother!

SO HAPPY!

The Fourth of July!

Max can be found doing this almost always when Connor is in his reach!

First time going to church!

Loves from brother!

I just die over these church outfits for the girls!!  I LOVE THEM!

Silly Abby!

CRAZY Lyla!

Connor's Blessing Day!

My A-MAZ-ING Husband!  Max loved this outfit of Connor's!  Everytime he could see him he would say HUT HUT!

Train ride at the zoo!

Tummy time!

Abby before her first soccer game!!

WOW!!  My heart is so full!  I am so blessed to be a wife and a mother!  I know that I didn't plan on my life working out this way but I am so grateful to my Father in Heaven (and my parents!) for helping me realize how wonderful life could be if I just made the choice to LIVE IT!  I cannot even begin to express the love I have for my husband Spencer and the WONDERFUL man he is!  He is so great to work so hard and support our family so I can stay home with my babies and raise them!  I wouldn't have it any other way!! 

Connor Joseph Keddington

Our newest sweetie Connor joined our family early this morning at 2:10 am.  Weighing in at a whopping 6 lbs 10 oz (almost an entire pound bigger than our "biggest" Lyla-5  lbs 14.5 oz)  He took the hard way out and is now sporting a bruise that starts at his forehead and covers the entire top of his head.  OUCH!

 He is such a little cutie!!  He has blonde hair under that hat but it is hard to tell with his bruise!

 Shortly after being born Connor was transferred to the NICU as he was having a hard time keeping his oxygen saturation levels where they should be and has low blood sugar as well.

 Mommy sure does love this little boy!  And is so happy that he decided not to come on her birthday!!  What a great present he is!!!

It is still undetermined how long Connor will be in the NICU but we are grateful for the special care that he is getting to help him thrive!  We can't wait until we can get the whole family together outside of the hospital and start our life as a family of SIX!  CRAZY!!!  

For you Shan...

Just to get you excited about coming up to see the family...here is a preview of Max with his soccer ball.  He pretty much loves the thing and always wants to play with it so it's something for you to look forward to!  It's a little slow at first but he pulls it out eventually...

Womens Conference

This past weekend I got the oppertunity to go to Women's Conference for my first time with My Mother, sister Natalie, Auntie Ann, cousin Heather, cousin Brittney and cousin in law Ashley!  It was so much fun and I am excited to keep up this tradition!!  We stayed in the dorms (which I could have never done in my life again and I don't think I would shed a tear!) and spent Thursday and Friday going to several classes to expand our knowledge on several aspects of the gospel and personal life!  I am so glad that I got to go!  I was a little uncomfortable at times being 28 weeks along in this pregnancy, but all was well in the end! 

Here is a photo we took before saying our goodbyes!

N, L, A, Me, A, H, & B

 Silly POSE!

It really was a blast and we had plenty of good food and great company!!  Love you girls!!

Easter Sunday!

Easter couldn't have been better!  We woke up and the kiddos found their baskets that the Easter Bunny hid for them!  He even left them the movie Hop and a pile of jelly beans right by it!

Here is my first attempt at a picture of all three together in their outfits!

 They all love each other SO MUCH!  And we love them!!!  Max does favor Abby over Lyla, but I love how in the first photo Max and Lyla are holding hands!  They are so sweet!!

I am so grateful for Easter and what it really stands for.  That night in our prayers that we say with the children, when it was Lyla's turn she said...Please bless that we can die and that we can all live again.  Seriously PEOPLE!!!  So cute!  I am so grateful for my Savior and for the sacrifice he made for me and all of us so that we will live again, and also that I can be with my family FOREVER!  I love them so much and don't know where I would be without them!!

EGG HUNT!

The Saturday before Easter we did a little egg hunt fo the kiddos in the front yard.  We had to do it on the side of the house since there was snow in the back yard and the front...thanks UTAH!

Here are the sweeties before we set them loose!

 Mister Max, getting the hang of it!

 Lyla...picking up the eggs Max so easily leaves behind

 Abigale was all over the place!

 Look ANOTHER EGG!

 Slim pickens!

 Checking out the loot

 Happy Abby!!!

 Bringing mommy some jelly beans!

 Oops!

The egg hunt went great!  Our kids will have candy for MONTHS!!!
