Happy Birthday Honey Grandma!!!

The boys spent some time making Birthday cards up for thier Honey Grandma. I thought she might like to see some pics of them decorating thier creations. I threw another one of Maddie in there for the fun of it. She looks so much older with her bangs. We hope you have a wonderful birthday! We miss and love you lots!

10 week baby check

I was back at the Dr. today for a 10 week O.B. appointment. Everything looked good. Had to have all the fun stuff done and blood work to check me after the blood transfusion I received last time. I have one more appointment in 2 weeks ( possibly with ultrasound) and then I should be able to go to the normal once a month visit, at least until near the end. I will have to be watched closely at the end again and during delivery since no one knows for sure whether the bleed I had was a uterine bleed or not. Oh well... I guess it wont do me any good to be upset about that. I've already been warned that monitors will be in place during labor....uhg. It will all be worth it in the end to have a healthy baby and mommy.(prayerfully) Thanks for praying.

My turn...I guess!

Well, I have heard the horror stories, mommy finds daughter with half her head of hair chopped admiring herslf in the mirror. Mine wasn't quite that bad, but Maddie came down stairs with a handful of long hair today, and told me... I snip snip my hair and make it gorgeous! I frantically put the sippy I had in my hand down to find the spot she had chopped. Fortunately, it was a small section of hair up front snipped at about bang legnth. It would have to be repaired, but the damage was minimal. The long locks all around remained intact! Thank you Lord! I took her up, fixed her some bangs across the whole front,rather than halfway and discussed with her how she was not to ever touch scissors to her head again!!! ( ya right!) I have removed them completely from the bathroom now though. Not sure which little boy left them in her reach... but they are lucky nothing worse happened! Here she is with her new style.

My Twin Nieces

I had to steal a picture of them from my sister so I could post them. They are growing so fast! They sure are alot of fun! ( I get to give them back when they fuss.)

8 week Ultrasound

Things went well today. Baby measured 8 weeks 2 days and we got to see and hear the little heartbeat. I am feeling very relieved and thankful! Thank you to those of you who have been praying with and for us.

Zach is Eleven!!!!!!

On Jan. 28th Zachary celebrated his 11th birthday! He had a party at home with his cousins and has a bowling trip coming up with his family in March. Zachary is such a blessing to have in the family. He is changing into a responsible and helpful young man. He has informed us that he wants to learn to race gocarts. Daddy is looking into that for him. I'm thinking I can expect to see a dirt track out in a feild before to long! He received alot of nice gifts...his favorite of which was his first set of Heeleys. He also had quite a bit of money to spend and chose an electric guitar which he wants to take lessons on now.

The Kids

Just thought I'd put up a recent snapshot of each of the kids. They are all growing up so quickly. Just in case any of you have somehow missed the news... we are expecting another little Jensen in Sept. We are praying all goes well this time. The first Ultrasound went well and looked good. I have a follow up Ultrasound tomorrow. We will keep you all posted!

Dressing up fun.

Honey Grandma was sure to get Maddie enough dress up clothes to share with all her little girly cousins and they had a great time playing with them when they came over. They still break it out just about every day here and get dolled up. Maddie had to show off her dalmation dress that Honey Grandma didn't get to see her in before we left also.

Watch her grow!!!!

Tippy had a well pup checkup while Mark was last here and she was up to 11 lbs 2 oz. She was only 4 lbs when we found her. She is quite content to have joined our family and quite spoiled too. She is alot of work at times but has been a fun addition and is turning into a great dog.

Home to Montana!

Two days after Christmas we hit the road again for a 3 day drive home. The kids were worn out but were happy to get home after 3 months away! Chief had grown a lion's mane while we were gone and had added atleast 10 lbs!!! He is so huge and pretty now. We came home to snow and had snow and ice for quite some time. It is now all melted off for the moment. We are

actually about 40 degrees today! Warm! We also adopted Tippy for Ethan after failing to find her a home in Texas.

Christmas in Texas

We all got to be together in Texas for Christmas this last year. We had not been there since Andrew was a baby so it was nice to have that time. G.G. got to see the girls in person and the kids all loved spending time with Honey Grandma and her. We had to head home a couple days after so it made for a fun time deciding what would fit in the van and what would have to wait to be shipped home later. We enjoyed a nice time opening gifts and had a nice Enchilada dinner that evening.

Ethan turned 7!!!!

On Dec. 20th Ethan celebrated his 7th birthday in Texas with our family and Aunt Doris and Uncle Chuck. Daddy took him and his brothers to Chuck E Cheeses early in the day and then he had his little party that evening. He chose an Indiana Jones cake. He received tons on cool gifts and some money to boot! It is hard to beleive he is 7 now. He is growing into such a nice young man. He did get a bit of a scare on his birthday however. The lolipop that Andrew had from the goodie bags came off the stick and got lodged in his throat. Daddy was able to dislodge it though and we were all very thankful!

Woohoo a new way to get some pics up!

Thanks to Marks mom and Sarah I can now upload my pics that have set on the camera since Ethans birthday!!! So...you are all in for all kinds up catching up with the Jensens!
