Hello all Well we have a new addition to our ever growing household! Asher Alan McBride was born on Monday June 23rd 2008. He was 6 pounds 14 ounces, 19.75 inches long. He has dark hair and a sweet little face! He is a good baby hardly ever cried the first three days. When we got home he and the other kids adjusted well! Adina had a hard time when I was not here, she is still a bit of a momma's girl! Nana and all the kids have just adored Asher being home. They have all tried very hard to help me out in many ways. Asher is nursing and doing well, the girls don't really understand it and it is funny to hear them ask where I am getting his milk! It is hard to explain nursing to a four and two year old. Thank you everyone for all your prayers.

June update!

Hello all, Well it is June and I am ready to pop (as John says!) We have a few more days until Asher comes. The house is full already Hayden and Jayme are here and we are enjoying them. My mom will be here in four days, the girls are sooo excited about that! We have not had Ananiahs birthday party due to other engagements and the chicken pox. The doctor says they had them but we are not sure that is what it was. There were thirty or forty on Ananiah, Adina started with them but never got too many she only had maybe twenty-five! They were over them in a few days and never really complained of itching? Not one bump was scratched! They looked like chicken pox and came up suddenly like them but not sure if that is what they were! Anyway We are having Ananiahs birthday party this weekend at the park! she could not decide what kind of birthday party to have but ended up with the same ol thing Strawberry Shortcake! She has had SS for every birthday so far! John and I got her a big girl bike for this birthday! She loves to go running and exercising with her Papa so we thought that they could go biking together too! We are working on potty training Adina now, she is doing alright. She is a stubborn child, she only wants to go when she thinks she will get candy!! She is working on it and doing pretty good. To me it is a little late but what works for one child does not always work for the other! She just turned two so I guess we are doing well. She tells us she is a big girl and does not want to wear diapers but seems to prefer them over panties right now! I hope she gets over this before the baby comes, having two in diapers is stressful! Adina is really a mommas girl and we are going to have trouble when the baby comes, She told me the other day she was going to tear him up because he was kicking momma! It was the funniest thing, She grabbed my shirt and started twisting it and saying I going to tear you up baby brother. So we know not to leave her alone with him for a while!! She is so cute though! It sounds harsh but it really was cute!
It is hot here so we are spending time in the kiddy pool most days! Well not me I would not fit but the girls are! LOL Things here are pretty good John is trying to finish the garage bathroom before my mom gets here so she will have a place to go for quite time, which is rare here! We are very excited about Nana coming! Well I think that is all for now! Will post pictures of Ananiahs Birthday party after tomorrow! Oh ringo is going away so I will have to find some other place to post our pictures soon! I will post that link once I find a place I like. Have a wonderful summer!

Well today is the day after mothers day and we had great weather and great friends on mothers day. The kids and John did well, they got me what I asked for and we had a nice lunch over at a friends house! I did not get my Sunday afternoon nap and I paid for it after church but we had a wonderful day!
It has been so nice out we have been spending alot of time outside. So I am planing on working on the yard this year I really want a garden but being this big i don't think i can plant much nor use the tiller. Hehe that would be a fun site, I have mowed the yard at nine months but i think i just might shake the baby too much with a tiller! Would be nice to have the fresh veggies I want though!
Ananiah's birthday is coming up and we are planning her birthday party, she is not really in to any one character so not sure what she wants for her theme this year. up until now it has been strawberry shortcake but this year I am just not sure what she wants! She does not need anything at this point but i am sure she will gets lots of stuff!
