Here We Are Together: Hope's Story
http://chebecca.blogspot.com/2014/03/hopes-story.html
This picture was taken on Wednesday, March 19th. I was 39 weeks, 5 days pregnant with baby #4. Here is her story. On Thursday morning, March 20th, I woke up very early in the morning, about 3:00 am, with contractions. I laid in bed for about an hour timing them and glancing at the clock when I would feel another one coming on. In my foggy mind, they seemed to be coming every 10 minutes. I laid there thinking, do I wake Brad up? Do I call my midwife? Am I really in labor? I want to go home! They sort of c...

Eva was given a hat and some sunglasses from some neighbors of ours who have two little girls that have outgrown these things. Eva LOVED the hat and sunglasses. Jacob always likes to be in pictures, so this is what we got! Then there's Eva trying on her brother's hat! Levi loves this Carebear like no other! Family and Fr...

The Nicolds6: September 2011
http://nicolds6.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Life is a coin. You can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.". Monday, September 26, 2011. Tons of business and a little whining. I can't believe how much is going on here and how the school year is keeping us moving! It has been non stop since the year started and I am so thankful for that because I think (judging by the days I DO have free) I would spend a lot of time on my hinee if it weren't for my kidlets! Connor is 8 now! He is in Cub Sprouts! I can't believe it! I think the be...
