Carter's made it to the age of 7!

Carter celebrated his 7th birthday at the Reptile Zoo in Monroe, WA with his family and two friends. After handling a couple snakes he said "This is the best day EVER!"

This Baby's Almost Done Cookin'

Here I am on Sept.7 in all my pregnant glory. I'm due at the end of October and I can not wait to have this baby boy out. Madison came out near her due date; Carter came out two and a half weeks early; Grant was overdue by 5 days. So I basically have no way of knowing when this last one will make his debut. I vote for sooner rather than later, but not before Oct.4 because Jeremy is out of town until then.

BACK TO SCHOOL TIME

Madison is a 5th grader, Carter is a 1st grader, and Grant is going to Pre-K (MWF mornings).

Going CRAZY with the rides!

Jeremy and the kids got ALL DAY ride bracelets at the fair this year. I was a bit envious because I couldn't go on any rides, but after Jeremy's fourth time on the Gravitron with the kids he said "This ride is making me sick..." I started thinking I probably didn't have it so bad after all.

County Fair ART Submissions

Here are the beatiful ART entries for 2008. The Rocket Adventure by Carter, The Munchy Caterpillar by Grant, and The Badger Path by Madison.

Birthday Girl

I became 31 in August. It's the last birthday I'll spend being pregnant- HOORAY! Jeremy bought me So You Think You Can Dance show tickets at the Tacoma Dome for my b-day present. We went to see it on Sept. 20 with Madison and it was awesome- except for my pregnant body objecting to sitting for that long. We had to leave a little early because I got too uncomfortable.

IN-N-OUT

This is one of the last times we ate in CA before starting the LONG drive back to Washington.

We'll Miss You Amelia!

Here we are at the Redlands Temple in July. Jeremy's youngest sister Amelia went there to prepare to serve a mission in Latvia. We'll miss you Amelia!!!

Leaping Lizards!

Carter (6), Grant (4), and Madison (10), loved swimming in CA this summer. They swam multiple times at Grandma Leann's, Grammie Terrie's, and Great Grandpa Don's. When we came home to WA from our road trip vacation at the end of July they all missed going swimming so much that I signed them up for a month of swim lessons in August.

Largey Family in Tie-Dye

This is the beginning. My first blog attempt- hopefully to be followed by many more! Here's a summer photo of us after making our first tie-dye shirts (thanks Andrew and Nicole). In July we drove from WA to UT to CA on a road trip to visit our families and had a blast.
