Every day Life/New Niece/Soccer

My kids LOVE the mud. It makes me crazy! I hate when they play in the mud. They can't keep it in one place and it ends up all over the backyard. 

They love it and thinks its the best thing ever!

They even get Mckinley to join in on the fun.

On September 11th Millie joined the Nettesheim family! This is Josh's sister Jana's 6th baby. She is such a doll. I haven't met her yet, but I want to so bad. I see lots of pictures of her and just wish I could hold her. I love that our families just keep bringing more and more babies into our lives. 

I love sleeping pictures because they are always just so cute. 

Every few weeks Payton finds his way into our bed. This particular morning Mckinley happened to end up in bed with me and so did Payton. I woke up and saw this precious moment with the two of them. Payton just adores his baby sister. I am sure as she gets bigger like Scarlett he wont as much, but for now they get along really well. 

Scarlett just adores Mapuana! 

Payton is loving soccer and is such a stud out on the field. I love watching his games. I end up laughing  a lot because the kids are just all super cute.

I watched the Toutai kids one night while they went out on a date. Payton had a soccer game that night so I loaded all 6 kids in the car. They did a pretty good job being good. 

We got home had dinner and the kids just played. Mapi and Scar played with makeup and were in heaven. The boys played legos and they each had a good time playing together. 

We ended the night with a movie. My 3 kids each fell asleep and the Toutai kids just watched the movie and waited for their parents to come back. It was a fun night. We enjoy having friends over.

Surprise trip to St George

Mckinley and I got to fly to St George and surprise my sister with a quick visit. We left on a Saturday morning and came back on tuesday mid day. Josh was able to be with Payton and Scarlett and also my friends helped out with them. 

Like I said we left Saturday morning and had a flight from Oakland to Arizona. There we had a layover for a couple hours then we got on another plan and headed to Las Vegas. 

Mckinley was so good on the airplanes. 

We waited in Las Vegas for a few hours for my grandma's flight to get in. We finally got her and the rental and drove to St George. It was a super long day of traveling!!! We arrived and surprised my sister. She was so shocked to see me and Mckinley. I knew it made her weekend having us there for Stockton's baby blessing. 

Stockton was the reason for the weekend get together. He got blessed on Sunday at church. He is such a cutie!

While all together my family we had a fun time, but it went by way too fast. Mckinley was a little unsure about everyone and was very attached to me. 

We did a little bit of swimming and Miss Olivia was the most stylish little swimmer. 

We enjoyed a lunch at some restaurant!

Each of us had to catch a piece of shrimp that was thrown into our mouths my the chef. It was a lot of fun and the kids enjoyed watching the crazy cooks. 

I got to spend time with all the little babies. Hinckley is growing too fast.

Mckinley and Olivia hangout on the ground. Olivia is such a sweetie!

Mckinley hanging with Aunt Stef!

Stockton's big day!

He was not very happy! He looked super cute though. I love this picture of Hinckley and Stockton. They are just weeks apart and will be such good buddies as they grow up.

My beautiful sister and her family! Love these 4!

My grandma, Mom, Me, Stef, Sofia, Mckinley, and Stockton

The Cambra gang. I sure do love my family. I wish Josh and Payton and Scarlett could have came. We missed them lots. I can't believe how much this family is growing and changing all the time. 

 

I got to love on this little Stockton boy! I sure do miss all my nieces and nephews. We have so many new babies on both sides of our families!

The trip came to an end and Grandma Sam, Mckinley and I headed back home. We had another long day of travel. Mckinley was once again super good on the flights.

We were each glad when we finally landed in Oakland. It was a blast of a weekend, but way too short. We were super tired and ready for some much needed sleep. I'm sure my grandma was beat but it was all worth it!

Stockton Ports Game

We sure do enjoy doing things as a family. We bought a group on deal for a Stockton Ports game. We were able to set a date that worked for us and 3 family friends. We enjoyed the night out and enjoyed being with friends.
