blessing day

capri didn't cooperate for the photo shoot, but she sure pulled through in the blessing! she was perfect and casey gave her a beautiful blessing.

big happy family!!!
proud parents!

i'm thinking about submitting this for the ensign cover, what do you think?!

grandma cindy. capri's got two of the hottest grandma's around!

i know i look gross, but had to give chari some props. she's just started a new business. if you're a digital scrapper, you must must check out her site: persnicketyprints.com. pretty darn impressive! (char, don't forget me when you're rich and famous!)

seriously?!

chase and nash bonding outside over remote control cars, they work a lot better than stupid wood ones that you have to make!

grandpa and grandma anderson

progress.

the amazing great grandparents, gpa and gg bylund

gg's got the magic touch. the only smile captured of the day.

chase was sooooo excited about his car. the stupid car might as well have had no wheels. last place by a landslide. bless his little heart. it was probably harder on me than him. my heart hurt for the little guy. it made me wonder how i'll ever cope with my children's real disappointments if i have a hard time with a piece of wood. i love my snug bug!

indie's birthday (again)

i promised indie a friend party but it was hard this year because of capri. indie didn't forget my promise and persisted till we decided on chuck e cheese's with cade and ryder her bff's.

my mom made this amazingly beautiful quilt. thanks mom! i love it, and you!

these are the happiest pictures i've gotten of capri. i couldn't chose which ones to post!

i'd dare say CUTER than a button!

capri, i never want to forget how it feels to hold and cuddle you. it is my most favorite thing in the world. there is nothing like a baby. please don't grow up too fast.

indie bella turns four!

cousin nash made a special sign for the birthday girl


mmmm look at all those yummy cupcakes. a couple people had half of one, i ate the rest. cute.


okay, maybe indie helped me out!


devious child!



at four indie:
attends two preschools
chooses between ryder and hudson (an older boy!) to marry daily
doesn't want to save her money for college, she never wants to leave her mommy!
refuses to have her hair combed
is as insane and strong willed as ever
asks for mac and cheese or a ham sandwich for breakfast
has the loudest voice of all time
is super bossy
is an energizer bunny
is soo loved by her family!

if chase were a hairdresser. . .

merry christmas!

that's my happy baby!

chase googled "dsi" for the last month! it was about all he could talk about. somehow he tricked santa into thinking he'd been on the nice list. :)

indie's list consisted of: bike, littlest pet shop house, and a baby alive. she must've done some serious tricking too!

libs on her new bike with the specially requested basket.

we were lucky to have casey's good friend ben spend christmas with us this year. the kids adore him!

grandma deb with the fussy one and the happiest one! bows by baby bling( thanks summer!)

big happy family!

and then there were NINE!!!

christmas morning with grandma and grandpa bulkley.

great grandma "nana" came in from oklahoma this christmas.

papa keith and capri meet.

gg and gpa with capreezy breezy beautiful.

christmas is always stressful and chaotic but i love spending time with family. i love my family and feel "seriously so blessed" to have each of them in my life. i love you crazy family. i am also so grateful that my kids have been able to have close relationships with their great grandparents. what amazing examples all of them are. i wish my grandma jaacks could have met capri. all in all a good christmas has come and gone. :)

dance showcase christmas show

is it just me, or do i have A LOT of kids? santa, can you bring me a valium?!?!

a rare sight. . .

yes, she cries. yes, all the time. yes, i am completely in love!!!! how could you not be in love with that face?!

the monster

thanks to chari for the photos and for relieving me from this demon child! you can't always judge a book by its cover! :) i love you indie.

she's FINALLY here!!!!!!!

here's the proof that i am the mother. all you modeling prego mamas ain't got nothing on me! i know i was a complaining, grumpy nightmare while i was pregnant, i forgot that the reward was so amazing. i love my baby!

the best feeling in the whole world!

proud daddy

soooo precious! capri claire bulkley 8 pounds, 15 ounces! 20.5 inches long, born at 8:55 am, november 3rd, 2009.

the kids couldn't come into the hospital due to the swine flu. they did get to meet their sister through the window for a quick glimpse but these are the pics when they first got to hold their baby. chase couldn't stop smiling.

libs is going to be the best big sister ever.

indie looks innocent enough but she has turned into a demon child. i'm sure most of you are saying "turned, when wasn't she?"
\
6 days old. i love her expressions!




this line won't go away. cute.

lagoon, a birthday, and halloween!

well, october is over and gone. maybe this stubborn little monster growing inside my belly will decide that november is when she'll make her debut. let's just pray for the sanity of my family that she'll be here soon! some october highlights:

indie loved all the rides, if they would let her, i'm sure she would have hopped onto the big rollercoasters.

frightmare entertainment, they loved it!

3 monsters not scared of any other kind of monster!

libby wanted a late night party with her besties. pizza, make-overs, pjs, what fun!

libby has adorable friends. halle, grace, miss libs, and sofie.

chase couldn't resist getting in on the action. i also love indie in this one- overjoyed at being able to play with the big kids.

my baby girl is 7! libby is happy, talented, fun, laid back ( how are we related?!), a peacemaker, creative, and beautiful. i love you liberty lynne!

more birthday fun-- pumpkins!

the masterpieces.

happy halloween! grandma with the bulkley and anderson grands.

libby was the only one that rebelled this year and demanded she be a witch instead of sticking with the star wars theme.

the only peace we have around our house. peace out.

may the force be with you!!!!!

back to school. . . a few weeks ago!!

i'm too tired to even put captions up.  you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!
