Family Pictures 2013

We had our family pictures last week. Kymber of course made it so we couldn't get many pictures because she was grumpy!

Here are a few of the collages that I really liked!

Kenzie at 23 weeks and 3 days.....

Since we are going to see Kenzie via ultrasound again tomorrow, I figured that I should maybe get these shots up for our family to see from 4+ weeks ago.

These are the pictures from the maternal-fetal specialist appointment. I was grateful just to have good news about her and the cyst that I truly didn't expect a cd with the pictures on it!

This first picture is hard for me to tell whether or not she has the Beach or the Spencer nose.

 However in this shot, Miss Kenzie definitely has the Beach nose and looks so much like Kymber!

Until we see her tomorrow.......

Turkey time

Isaac made a turkey hat at school that we all modeled for a bit.

What a bunch of turkeys this Beach bunch has turned out to be!

27 weeks

And 2 days but who is counting?! We have decided on the name Kenzie for this little gal. (No middle name yet!)

She is very active esp when I lay down. The kids and I will get to see her again on Tuesday during my ultrasound.

I am trying to stay positive but my hip and back are really hard to ignore. At this time, I am doing therapy 3 times a week. Looking forward to holding her in my arms instead of inside my body!

Hodge podge

It has been about 2 weeks or more since I blogged so I figured that I better catch the family up on what is going on here in Southern California.

I hosted our neighborhood Bunco in our home. Ben was brave and took the kids out to Chuck E Cheese.

I finally got our duty sign that I have been wanting for almost 2 years!

Kymber loves her babies!

We celebrated the Marine Corps birthday

We celebrated Veterans Day 

I got my hair cut and colored

The kids rode the merry go round in the mall

We had a much over due date night

Isaac used his birthday gift card to get some night vision spy goggles

Girls snuggle time

20 months and 3 days....

Our little spitfire is looking more and more like a little girl instead of a baby!

Her hair is most definitely long enough to pull up all if it.

She is a little sponge and loves to parrot words and expressions back to you!

Oh and she loves her Jordan!

To tide the family over.....

A collage of the chaos!

School days...

The kids pictures came yesterday. I can't believe how big they are! I definitely think next time I will go to school to make sure their hair is ok :)

2nd grade Kendall

kindergarten for Isaac 

It's here!!

My curio arrived yesterday! I spent time putting all my treasures in there yesterday and today.

Ben will put the lighting fixture in, center it in the cut out space, and anchor it for me this weekend.

Amazing memories flooded me as I unwrapped everything.

~Family, friends, patients.

~my babies

~Loved ones no longer with us.

~Birthdays, Christmas, graduations, anniversaries, and weddings

~travels and places we have been

~foreign lands that we have not visited but have treasures from thanks to my sweet brother-in-law

~what a blessing memories are!!

Trick or treat: iPhone pictures

My little Ariel's and one star wars character.

I was thankful to get them ready and to have Ben coming home to surprise them because I ended up sick!

So bummed to have missed Kymber's first "real" trick or treating experience but I know she was in good hands!

Kymber is cracking me up with her cheesy smiles these days.....
