Going out with a Bang

I can't figure out how to add my photo but I'm sure all that follow me on Facebook and Instagram have seen the picture of our BIG news...We are finishing the year 2013 with a Bang..We are expecting baby Cooper #5...At times I can't wrap my mind around being a mom of 5 and at the same time I it feels completly right and now our family is complete ;)...Totally different feeling than the feeling last year at this time finding out I was expecting #5 and then losing it a couple of weeks later. I wasn't ready and thought I was done but how things like that can humble you and prepare you in ways you could have never imagined. I started working part time only 10 hrs a week thurs. fri. evenings and Sat. 10-2 I am a medical receptionist for Ogden Clinic and am loving it..It is a nice break from the life of a mom..It is giving us a little bit of money to apply to our debt..We are focusing all of our attention this next year to paying off our debt once and for all ;) We are looking for a home but have not figured out just yet where the lord wants us to be. Everything we find just doesn't feel right and the prayers keep getting answered with NOT yet..So we keep praying and waiting. Very frusturating at times, yet I am so thankful for the Peace that follows the warnings and am so thankful that I have the knowledge of the Gospel and know that we are not doing this on our own EVER. Preston just turned 10. He is the BEST kid EVER !!! He is such a great help at home,school, church, pretty much where ever he is. He loves his new IPad he got for Christmas and Loves his little sister's He puts up with Colton but I'm sure there is love in there too for him...I don't know what I would do without him in our family he has the softest heart for his mom and loves to serve me and surprise me..For Christmas he had his dad take him to Kohls and spent his birthday money on a diamond earing and necklace set for me..he was so excited to give it to me I just love him... Karleigh started kindergarten this year and is busy learning..Lost her first tooth and now a second..she is a lot of fun she loves to cuddle and hug and cuddle and hug some more;) she loves playing with friends and wants to call them constantly I wish we could find one that wants to play constantly too it would save us some disappointment. Colton is going to be turning 8 in a couple of months which blows my mind :) he is FULL of energy. He loves to wrestle, play sports and be outside winter is killing him.. He loves to ride his bike and can't wait for the snow to melt. He spends his days sledding and building snowmen,snowforts, and anything else he can enlist others to help him with..He also wants friends constantly. He is in 2nd grade and HATES homework Kambria will turn 3 in January and is the light of our family. I don't think there is a child more loved. She is quite the energy and laughter in our home. She loves going to the store, eat bubbletape (the whole thing) and loves playing outside and being outside. she loves to be cold and hates it when her blanket gets warm from sitting on it or laying with it..she wants it COLD. She even asks to take cold baths and showers..Strange as she is at times we LOVE her Chad is busy working, traveling, and working more..he is always coming up with new ideas and even applied for his first Patent. He continues to Amaze me and I couldn't ask for a better Father and Husband. Well that pretty much sums up our 2013 and we can't wait to enter 2014 with our Dreams and Hopes high.
