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!

my baby sister had a baby!!!!

jp deep in thought (holy &^!@*, no turning back now!!!)


beautiful brittany with her beautiful baby, brecken skye lewis


the happy family. brittany sure as heck doesn't look like she's just pushed a nine pound munchkin out now does she? i always told myself at least brit could commiserate on the fat/gross/hell of pregnancy and labor, but whatever she does, brit does with style. i'm all alone here. :( now now, no consoling words please, it's the cold hard truth and there's no sugar coating my condition anymore. i'm large and in charge and i'm dealing with it. :)

congratulations brittles! you were amazing and i love you and your sweet little girl. can't wait for baby bulkley and baby lewis to meet!

indie posing at the rodeo

i will not be in pictures due to my awesome condition of massive weight gain, but i had to prove to the world that i, yes hollie lynne anderson bulkley, slept on the floor at the reunion in idaho. there weren't too many options and i sucked it up and here's the proof.  we are sitting on my nice cozy bed in cristy's living room.  i'm trying to suck in and hide the arm problem, didn't work too well, but i tried.  the pioneers ain't got nothing on me!!!!!! 

i love you grandma!

my sweet, passionate, crazy, wonderful grandma passed away early this morning.  i love you grandma and will miss you so much.  

grandma marilyn and my dad at 5 months!  classic pic!

4 generations! me, dad, chase, grandma 

baseball fun!

chase's baseball coach got tickets for the twins to go to the owlz game.  they got autographs and had a blast.

noah, ethan, and chase, the cutest darn twins players i've ever seen!

chase even got to go down on the field and stand with a real-live owlz player.  pretty cool!

chase had a great season of baseball, he had great coaches, his best friend, and a loud cheering section (i didn't get thrown out of one game!).  he hit four home runs, or at least ran 4 home runs.  he got pretty cocky toward the end and would run the bases even when his coaches would tell him to stop!  he figured he could outrun his opponents, naughty boy!

hee hee

a picture's worth 1000 words. . .

okay, so i do have a couple of words to add. 34 pounds in 21 weeks! are you kidding me?

going, going, GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and the fans went WILD!!!! way to go chase! you brought your mama to tears! (not hard to do, but still!) nicely done snug bug!!!!

kissing is love

scene set-up: laying in my bed (weird) watching a movie and indie's bouncing all over the place.

me: close your eyes

indie: why am i not allowed to watch kissing?! kissing is not gross, kissing is love!

indie and libby dance recital
