Where in the world is....

The other day I couldn't here Ellsie and usually this means she is doing something she shouldn't be doing. So I started the hunt to find her, a little afraid of what mess I might find. It was very funny when I found her, she had made the kitchen island her little home for the day. She is so funny.

The Yellow Jackets

Jaxon started playing soccer this spring. He has played three games so far and has really been enjoying the game. He has been hit in the head with the ball 3 times and he just stays in the game and keeps playing like a champ.
He looks so cute in his uniform, it's so big on him!

A little late Easter post

I know this post is a little late, but it's better then never right. We had a great Easter Sunday with the kids. Luckily the weather turned out nice and we were still able to have the egg hunt outside. Jaxon helping Ellsie find the eggs, he is always a big helper.

Josh wasn't the best hunter so he thought he would just eat his bag.


My three beautiful kids, I love them all so much!

Where did you come from....

Jaxon was practicing his letters today on his Magna Doodle. When he told me he spelt STOP. I looked over at the doodle and could not believe that he really spelt it and it looked perfect. I gave him a high five and told him he was amazing. Then the conversation went like this.....

Mandy: You are so amazing, where did you come from?
Jaxon: From Jesus mom.
Mandy: From Jesus huh?
Jaxon: Yup Jesus has to be a good speller.

I love that kid he makes me laugh.

Have a great Wednesday!

Amazing another post so soon!

know I know you can't believe it another post...

I can't believe it myself. Some how I have no kids bugging me for a few minutes. Ellsie and Josh are both asleep and Jaxon, Gatlin and Annie are outside playing in the sprinklers.

The house it so quite I think I may have to scream just to feel normal, It never stops anymore. The noise starts at 7:20am and keeps going until I leave for work at 7:30pm. Sometimes I know this sounds bad but it's nice to go to work and leave the utter confusion and mayhem behind for poor Jed to deal with.

So now with this blessed quite moment I will try and update you on everything so I can feel like I'm actually not behind on something. Because as I type the laundry is piling up again, I'm still scrapbooking 2004, and their are so many other things I'm behind on I can't even start.... So here's an update on our life as crazy as it is, I wouldn't trade it for anything......

OK maybe sitting by the beach in Hawaii!

My family enjoyed a great camping trip in the Uintah's mountains. I love the great outdoors.
My Little Josh loving the camping trip.


Jaxon was so dirty this year camping...

he loved it mom wasn't washing his face all the time.

Josh at 2 months old he is already a little ham!

As most of you know we have been working on a new sprinkler system in the front yard. With my fathers help we have had some huge ditches. One day in June when it was raining so hard we soon realized we created a small swimming pool in our front yard. Jaxon, Ellsie and Lilly thought it was great fun!

My Little Tiny ELLSIE.....

She is so crazy and such a girl. I'm so used to Jax who is just so

mild mannered. Ellsie she knows what she wants and

yells until she gets it.

I have been blessed with three cute cute kids! They are so much fun!



Josh 2mths old and getting SOOO big!

My two best boys!



Jaxon at his preschool graduation! He said he wants to grow up to be a doctor so he can make lots of money!




Well that's about all I have time for, the kids are coming in and getting dressed. I knew the silence wouldn't last long. So far summer has been fun with a trip to the zoo, camping, swimming at my moms and an up coming trip to Sunvalley Idaho with the Nelson crew. I guess I better enjoy it all before I know it, snow will be on the ground. Jaxon is already telling me what he wants for Christmas. The very thought makes me want to throw up!

Joshua Robert Nelson

I know this is way over due but with three kids it seems like I never have a free moment. So here is my newest little one. He was born May 6th and weighed 6lbs 8oz and was 19 inches.

Jumpin Jacks!

We thought we would take Jaxon and Ellsie to Jumpin Jacks before I had the baby. We had a great time, Jed said it was one of the best work outs he's had. Jaxon Flying down the slide

Ellsie fell asleep on the way over, so we had to wake her up and she was not very happy. But once Jed took her down a couple of slides she was hooked.

Jed going head first.... crazy guy!

Jaxon and Jed taking a much needed rest.
