Thanks Daddy!

Luke is a great Dad. He teaches them a lot of great things. The kids love him. BUT there are a few things he teaches them that are not good. Like pulling your pants and down pretending to fart and mooning(yes he really taught Nicholas that). Anyways a couple weeks ago we were at In n out and he taught Nicholas how to spit spitballs with a straw. No biggie right? Well the other day while driving I see this white thing land on my dashboard right next to me. I look back and it's Nicholas doing exactly what his "cool" dad taught him. Then when we get home Sammy starts freaking out because he had spit about 10 more of them on her window. Oh don't worry it gets better. It was time for nap/quiet time and so I sent them all to their rooms. I go into Nicholas room to grab something and I see that DAMN straw in his hand again. I thought I took it away from him. I look at his ceiling and this is what I find:

He somehow found blue paper and spit a bunch of them on his ceiling. So please don't judge me if Nicholas spits one of these at you, pulls his pants down and pretends to fart, or moons you. It's not my fault...blame his Daddy!

Our Baby Graduated!

Okay so he only graduated from preschool. Nicholas had his preschool graduation on May 16th and it was seriously the cutest thing ever. I wasn't expecting much but it totally exceeded my expectations. Nicholas has loved his 1.5 years at ABC preschool. He had the same teachers both years and really loved being with them. When I told him this was his last year of preschool he started to cry. He loves school so much and can't wait to for his blue Kindergarten(the playground is blue). When I was first told about this preschool I was a little hesitant because it is so cheap but I am so glad I enrolled him in there. Best thing Ever!

His preschool buddies. Unfortunately they will be split into 2 different schools for Kindergarten.
Passing through the door at the end of it
He really wanted this picture taken...and then Parker came and knocked the dog down.

They called all of the kids names and he was so excited to hold that piece of paper.

These are 2 of his preschool friends. From day one he told me Megan(the girl on the right) is his girlfriend. And below is a picture of the whole crew. It was all 4 classes combined. See how cute it looks? I can't believe my oldest will be kindergarten soon and I can't believe I will be having my 4th child when my oldest is only in kindergarten. Can you say crazy?? We are so proud of Nicholas and how much he loves to learn.

Change is good

Many changes are happening in the Lund house lately. These are changes that will change our lives. That last line was dramatic huh? I have always wanted to say that. No, but really they will affect our lives.

#1- Luke has decided on a new career. He wants to be a firefighter. In January he came to me and told me about this new plan. I just kind of laughed at him. I thought it was a phase. He brought it up again a month later. That's when I knew he was serious. He started his EMT class about 6 weeks ago. We know this could be a long road ahead of us. It's a very hard job to get and can take a LONG time. We knew that getting into it. So basically on Mondays and Wednesday I am a single mom. I'm not used to this feeling. I have been spoiled by a husband coming home at 4 or 5 everyday and having enough energy to help me clean up after the little stinkers. Those days my friends, have come to an end. I am excited for Luke and I and this journey we will be taking.

#2- We are expecting #4. Due date is November 28Th. We are really excited. I'm pretty sure everyone knows about this already. I really wanted to keep it a secret until 12 weeks. I actually only told a few people but somehow that turned into about 50 people knowing. How it happened, I don't know. Oh well it doesn't matter. At least people knew why I was getting fat. Speaking of getting FAT. I am showing so much sooner with this one. It's pretty depressing. I have a feeling this will be my biggest pregnancy ever. I am just warning you all. Also I was really really sick with this first trimester. I have never been that sick with any of the other ones. It was hard with 3 little kids running around.

Oh and yes this is our last one. No doubt about it. Yeah I know you are all laughing thinking "Yeah Right". My Doctor even said that to me. He didn't believe me. Oh believe me people we will be doing some major permanent changes. That's all I am saying. We are hoping for a girl but if this one is a boy we will still be done. Actually at my ultrasound today I had this crazy feeling that it was a boy. Maybe it's because the baby was moving like a mad man. Oh and let me end on this:

Luke has decided to help me out with this pregnancy. Wouldn't that be nice?

My Mother's Day

I finally got the Mother's Day I have been waiting for. Don't get me wrong, the ones in the past have been great but this was just extra special. It was the first time my kids went up to sing to me in sacrament. Last year Nicholas refused to go up. I think it helped him this time because Sammy was with him. It was so cute and I even caught my self getting a little emotional. I loved watching my 2 kids trying to sing their hearts out. It didn't hurt that I told them they could have fruit snacks if they sang really loud.

I tired to get a picture before church but as you can see it just didn't work out.

Here are the candy flower bouquets Sammy and Nicholas made. They are cute and the kids couldn't wait to eat the candy off of them. Parker came out of nursery holding a necklace he made. Adorable!

Of course Luke did great too. He made me breakfast and got me a massage at the school of massage.

Best Mother's Day Ever!!!

Game Ball

Nicholas is in his 2nd year of Tball and is really enjoying it. He is getting really good at the game. The last couple of games they have been taking the Tee away and doing coach pitch. He loves that part. I actually think he does better with the pitching than hitting off the tee. We are so proud of him and are glad he loves doing it.

Last Saturday he finally got the game ball. He has been waiting for this the whole season and it definitely made his day. He loves being on the "Cubbies" and is very sad that it is almost over. I on the other hand am very glad it's almost over because it's getting HOT here and it's not fun chasing a 2 yr old around the ballpark. SHHHH.....don't tell Nicky I said that.
