pregnancy, work, house, baby names.........

I am amazed at how fast this pregnancy is going! I'm already in my third trimester and will soon have three children. Either two boys and a girl or one boy and two girls.. hmmm.... either way we are so excited to have three children so close in age. I'm looking forward to all the adventures we will have. I imagine they will all be very close to each other and have lots fun times amongst all the fights and hair pulling too. Homeschooling children this close should be interesting as well... I'm excited about that but overwhelmed at the thought too! I can't believe Colton is almost three.... homeschooling is only two years away!!!!!!!! Although... as moms we seem to be schooling them or teaching them something new all the time!

OK... so the only name we have so far is Keira for a girl and no boy name. Sean and I can not agree on hardly anything. Idea's PLEASE! Also, not sure on a middle name yet ...

Keira Nicole King
Keira Anne King
Keira Grace King

those are just what I've thought of so far....ideas on a middle name would be great too!

We would like a boy name that goes nice with Colton but preferably not starting with a "C".... what I mean I guess is just a western sounding name.

We are spending the week in San. F. again while Sean works. He is working a lot of over time this week...they are still working on the Bay Bridge. (the double decker in SF the colapsed from the big earth quake) I need to get home by Thursday though as I'll be house sitting for John and Barbara Gordon over the week end taking care of flowers and dogs :-) We house sit for the Morgans the next week end and then the week end after that we go to Carson City for Sean's Bowling tournament with our friends Adam and Shannon Bishop.

One last thing... the house deal fell through.. but we have someone coming to look at it on Sunday. Please pray that something happens soon. This family is looking to set it up on their parents 10 acres and start taking in foster kids! We'd love to see this happen and be able to help this family out. They already asked if we would take payments and of course we said YES. So, hopefully they like what they see and we can get it moved out of there this month. We really don't want to be doing everything right before we leave. July and August will be super busy as it is.... ughhhh............so much to do. But it will all work out.

26 weeks pregnant with Baby #3

OK here I am at 26 1/2 weeks pregnant...YES, I know my butt is huge! I've gained about 17 lbs already and have appx. 14 weeks left.... walking doesn't seem to be helping much. I can't remember what stage I was at when I hit 17 lbs last time.. I'll have to look back at my records. Nothing much new with the pregnancy... baby is moving a ton!!!!! I still can't believe I'm going to have three kids ages 3 years and under. Boy I think I'm busy now, I can't imagine what it's going to be like. But I guess I'll manage. I just hope Carley is an early potty trainer! I don't want two in diapers again. Although last time I only had two in diapers for a few months. Colton was pretty easy. Also, I am really excited because they are both sleeping through the night and bed time has gotten really easy! Thank you Jesus... even if the new baby doesn't sleep well.. at least I can handle ONE! Colton says the new baby is "a boy, like me" or "another Colton like me" I on the other hand don't have much clue... I'm leaning toward a girl but we don't really care of course. It is what it is.. we just can't wait for the surprise! I think I am carrying exactly the same as I did with the other two.




The picture on the bottom is my new hair color I got done yesterday.. you probably can't tell much difference but it was really bronzy before... so I think this looks better... I just got some high lights and low lights. Maybe next time I'll do a little more blonde...what do you guys think?


btw.. please leave comments on the bottom of my post! Thanks!

Trip to L.A.

Two weekends ago we went downt to L.A. to drop off my black Arabian mare Kareemaa. The Lord has been blessing us in the sales of our horses and belongings. On the way home we stopped to show someone our livestock trailer and he was the very first person to even look

and he bought it on the spot. We were able to pay off our loan and get a few grand to boot as well! Praise the Lord for two sales in two days!

While we were in L.A. we spent the night at my Cousin Danielle's house. It was great to catch up and hang out for a bit. We hadn't seen each other since I was pregnant with Carley over a year ago! I didn't get any pictures of us.. just the kids and Sean playing in the yard wearing off energy before heading home on Sunday morning.

As you can see Carley was just chillin' with her ba ba most of the time.... daddy and Colton had fun kicking a little beach ball that Danielle gave him.

The kids and I are home this week while Sean went back to the Bay Area to work on the bay bridge again. We miss him a lot when he's gone... but are having fun hanging out at grandma's house. Tomorrow we plan to go to the city pool if it's not still storming out side!
