Car Seat Cover!
So I made a car seat cover for the baby, and it is so adorable. Unfortunately, I have no car seat, because our old one was too old. It was over the limit so I have to get a new one. But, you can just imagine what it will look like on. It took me four hours, but I think I might be getting a hang of this sewing thing!

New Boppy Cover and Wall Hanging!
So, I have been trying to turn all my cleaning energy into crafting energy, since my house is clean enough and I have been put on a lot of restrictions due to my low lying placenta. So I tackled a new boppy cover all by myself. Let's just say after having 3 kids, 2 of which nursed for a year each, my boppy cover needed to be replaced. It only took me about 2 hours, for me that is fast! And I saved a ton. Do you know how much a new cover cost.... $20!!!!! I only spent about six dollars! This cover matches or will match Sadie's Crib Set I am making with my mom. I think I could make more too, cause they are really inexpensive and super easy. Here is a picture of the new cover:


I also decided to do a wall hanging for Sadie. I did one for James Micheal, but then had a hard time finding the right materials for Evan's and Makayla's so I didn't make them one. But we just got a Hobby Lobby in Spokane which is awesome, and I found exactly what I needed. Mariah came over to help since she has a lot of artistic vision and I just don't. With her help it is the cutest one I have made. I love it! What do you think?

New Diaper Bag!
So yesterday, my mom and I spent a good nine hours, making a new diaper bag for when I have Sadie. It was a lot more of my mom working than me, because we'll just say that my sewing abilities are very limited. But, it turned out amazing and is probably the nicest diaper bag I have ever had. We got the pattern online for free and the fabric was only about five bucks at Wal-mart. which means I saved a ton, and I LOVE IT! It is so darn cute! Here are some pictures!

Afternoon at the Lake
Friday afternoon we all went to the lake as a family after James got off work. Mom Divis, Gavin, Jordan, Mariah, Will, and Dad Divis, joined us and we had pizza for dinner. James Micheal loved the beach and had a great time, finding buried treasures and making a sand castle. We will miss summer when it is gone, but I love making memories with the kids while the sun still shines.

Happy Six Year Anniversary!
So James and I have been married six years today. We have had many challenges in our six years of marriage and many happy moments too. I am so grateful, that we have grown closer as a couple and as parents. Our children have been a big part of our marriage and are definitely one of the best parts. I am grateful to Jame's for his love and patience with me. I tend to be a little snippy when I am pregnant apparently! But, he takes me for who I am and I take him for who he is and that is what makes us good together. I can't wait for another six years, and eternity after that! They say 3 months is too short a time to fall in love and get married, and then to have 3 kids so quickly after is even crazier. But, I guess James and I are crazy together and wouldn't have done it any other way. Here is a picture of us today. We may have changed/gained weight and wrinkles, but I can honestly say I love him even more now than six years ago.

Evan is Crawling!
Evan started crawling last weekend, but he has finally mastered it. He is all over the place! He is pulling himself up on furniture and walking in between everything. He even is starting to get into things. Time for me to baby proof for the first time since James Micheal was a baby. I am so glad he finally decided to get up and go. I don't doubt he will be walking by December, he is well on his way to that! He is still going to an endocrinologist on August 9th, even though he is finally moving I would hate to ignore a possible muscle issue. We are so happy for our little Evan he is growing up too fast now!

Painting Projects
Well this last week, I guess you could say I have been nesting/obsessive compulsive lately. So, what do you do when you feel that way? You decide to take on a huge project that irritates you until it is done. So, I decided to paint the older kid's bedrooms and move everybody around. I painted James Micheal's room and James spray painted the bunk beds so they would match and a dresser that we got for free and put new knobs on. So Evan is all ready to move into James' room when the baby comes. Then I moved on to Makayla's room, she moved into James Micheal's old room. I painted her room and put up some wall decals, we moved the full bed in there and cleaned out 5 closets. One good thing is I have a craft room/laundry folding room, that can easily be converted into another kid's room if necessary. I also went through all the kid's toys in the playroom and donated and organized everything. I am happy and the downstairs looks awesome. Here are pictures of the kid's new bedrooms.

Fourth of July!
Well during fourth of July weekend, we went to my mom and dad's for a McIntire Reunion. It was also a lot of fun. The boys went on 2 fishing trips and we got to take a ride on the boat. We had lots of yummy food and fireworks. Evan could not stop staring at the sky all night, we thought they would freak him out, but he loved them!! We ate smores and had a quiet Monday. It created quite a few memories and my mom took some great pictures, especially of Evan enjoying the fireworks. Enjoy my cuties!

Divis Family Reunion
We has a Divis Family Reunion the last week of June. It was a lot of fun and probably the last time that all the family will be together until Will gets home from his mission. We had a lot of great meals, and lots of fun talking. We went to Silverwood which was a lot of fun, even though I didn't get to go on rides, I still had a great time. Here is my favorite family picture we took.
I know I know!!
I know I have been slacking on the blog posts lately. I have a good excuse though, I seemed to have misplaced my dear pink camera, I have no idea where it is, but when I do find it, I will update I promise, cause we have been up to a lot lately! Plus, we find out if we are having a he or she on Tuesday. I am super excited! I think it is a boy, James thinks it is a girl. What do you think?

My Man!
Ok I know this is way late, but it is hard for me to describe about how I feel about my man. He has been a wonderful husband to me for the past 5 almost 6 years. He has loved each one of our babies each for their own unique qualities. I remember when we brought James Micheal home from the hospital, James would not go over ten miles per hour. It was then that I realized being a daddy had definitely changed him. He was never sad or upset when we had Makayla, he carried her all the way to the NICU, and would wait until I fell asleep and then go see her. He was with her when I couldn't be and showed me again that his love was endless for his little girl. Evan is basically a mini-James, and so they get along quite well. He makes each of our kids laugh more than anyone else, and takes the time to teach them responsibility and the gospel through example. I love you sooo much James, and even more now that you are the father of my children, and shown me what a great guy he truly is. I love ya babe, Happy Late Father's Day!

Here is a picture of James Micheal and his cousin Gavin, who came to visit. They are watching Sesame Street together so cute!
And finally for the finale, I give you another great picture taken by James Micheal, I have sooo many, but this one was my favorite!

James Micheal: The Photographer!!
So I had taken a really cute picture of Evan getting himself stuck underneath one of our kitchen chairs. He finally has learned how to scoot backwards,which is the first sign of crawling, which is a good thing.(Picture Below):
So, while I was scanning through the pictures, I found several that I did not recognize as me taking. So, I asked James Micheal if he knew where the pictures came from. He politely informed me that he was a good picture taker now. So here is his masterpieces.

Makayla's Hair!

The Lilac Parade!
So last Saturday, we went to the Parade in Spokane. It was a lot of fun. James Micheal got to play in the water fountain there. Makayla and Evan sat with me and ate sandwiches and carrots. All the kids loved the parade, James Micheal sat right on the sidewalk and got to see everything up close. Makayla loved the music of the bands and would clap and scream at the top of her lungs when they would pass. Evan loved the drums, he would start dancing anytime the drum section would approach. All in all it was a great night full of fun family memories. Enjoy the pictures of my darlings.

Mom, Don't Call Me Cute!!
These were the words of my four year old today. Then he said, "Call me handsome cuz I'm a man!" Wow, he is growing up way too fast, and he is way to opinionated like me. What are the teen years going to be like??? On another note, we took the kids to go see How To Train Your Dragon, and there was a really loud flying scene, and then it got quiet. All of a sudden, Makayla says, "What happened to the dragon buddy!" It was so dang cute, she really does absorb everything she hears. And well Evan, well, he just makes us giggle, he is turning into quite a picky eater. Vegetables-no, Fruits-only bananas, Meats-all meat all the time please, Cheese-eats every cheese we have ever given him. I think I am raising a carnivore! Ohh,I love my babies, they just made me giggle today!
