Boston James Bearden

I am finally posting about Boston...
He was born on July 3, 2010. He was 5lbs 7oz and 18in long.
He was 4 weeks early and had a hard time breathing in the beginning. He had to be in the NICU for the first week. He is doing great now. He is such a sweet baby. We are so blessed to have him in our family. It is amazing the spirit that comes with a new baby.
Here are a few pictures of him:)




Jera and Boston. This is just a few days after Boston was born. We are in the NICU..


Boston, the day he was coming home. He had to have an IV in his head for his antibiotics. We got to take it out a couple days after he was home.


Boston, 5 weeks old... My friend Jordan took some really cute pictures of Boston for me.

Field Trips

This last month I went on a Field Trip with each of the kids and their classes. It was a lot of fun to be able to do that... We had a great time at each one.

For Makade's Field Trip we walked to the Butterfield Farms...
Makade got to try roping a cow dummy. He did pretty good.
This is Makade wearing masquito goggles..


Alex's Field Trip was to the Petting Zoo at Thanksgiving Point. The kids had such a good time. Brooklyn got to come along on this one.

Jaxon's Field Trip was to the Zoo. We got to ride the bus, take a lunch and walk around the zoo. Such a great day for a Kindergartner...

Happy Birthday Craig!!!

Happy (really late) Birthday Craig!



Craig turned 32 in April!
The kids and I are so lucky to have Craig in our lives.
He is the best husband I could ever ask for and he is such a good dad. The kids think he is the greatest!:)
Happy Birthday, we love you!

Basketball Season

Makade and Jaxon both played basketball this year and both realy enjoyed it! We had a lot of fun watching them.

Jaxon giving great Defense!

I love this...

Okay, so honestly how many dads would do this. Then be okay getting their picture taken while doing it:) I am so lucky to have such a great husband and my kids are so lucky to have such a great dad! We love you Craig!!!

Alex and Craig. She love him to blowdry her hair because he will put the blowdryer under it all and make it fly straight up. She thinks it is so funny!

Happy Birthday Jaxon!!!

Jaxon turned 6 in Feb. I know I am really behind. We are so lucky to have Jaxon in our family. He always keeps us on our toes. Here are a few pictures of what he has been up to the last few months. I love you so much Jaxon!


Jaxon on his birthday. He got a new mountain bike like his big brothers and plenty of other stuff..
Jera and Jaxon and Jaxon's birthday!
Jaxon got mad and went to hide like he does sometimes. It took us a little while to find him this time. When we did, we found that he had fallen asleep under his bed while he was hiding:)
This WAS my patio table. The kids were playing out back and Jaxon had a granade in his hand (a rock) and said he had to throw it or it would have blown up in his hand. It just happened to hit my table just right and it was so cold out side that it shattered. He did tell me he was going to get a job and earn enough money to buy a new one. I don't know, he has been wanted to set up a rock store on the corner. Maybe that will make enough to buy a new one.:) He has such an imagination...
I know this is Alex, but the drum set is Jaxon's. Of couse he asks for drums for Christmas. What else would he ask for. We do have them in the basement. He is actually better than you would think. Like I said, this kid always keeps us on our toes. He is so much fun to have around... We love him so much!

A little early!

I know that my new back ground is jumping the gun a little with the summer theme, but I really want the warm summer here. So, that is why I put it on there:)
