Come on Baby Girl!

I will be 38 weeks tomorrow. I'm ready for this baby to come. How can you not be excited to meet this cute little thing.

 

Look at those lips? To me she looks like Noah's profile here. We shall see. I've been pregnant 5 times in 8 years. I'm done! I know everyone has heard that before from me but this time it's a done deal. 3 boys and 2 girls is perfect. Sammy finally gets her sister and we are all happy. Now if she follows in her siblings footsteps(which I'm sure she will) she won't come out until they force her. My due date is March 15th and I will be induced that day if she doesn't come. I just want for once my body to do it on it's own. Can't wait for baby Lucy June Lund to get here!! Oh and I guess I should post a picture of me pregnant. I'm assuming one day she'll want to know how fat I got when she was in my belly.

Sick kids

The last 4 weeks I have had 1 kid sick. I'm not sure what I would rather have. All my kids sick around the same time or 1 getting sick each week. Didn't help that I couldn't keep anything down. Never had that problem the last month of pregnancy before. So glad we got the sicknesses before this baby came though. One thing I do love about my kids being sick is how calm they are and how they just want to lay there. It's kind of nice. Parker was my only one who was harder being sick. That's why I never got a picture of him sleeping soundly because he never wanted to!!

Sick Kids

God Bless the USA

We are zoned for an amazing school. It's great. We do all sorts of fun things and they really try keep traditions alive. One of my favorite things they do concert for the 1st graders called "God Bless The USA". The kids learn all these facts about America and sings a bunch of patriotic songs. Every time I watch it I get teary eyed and feel so blessed that my kids are still learning about America and can still sings these songs. This year it was Sammy's turn to participate. She did a great job and loves performing and singing in front of people.

Sammy also was awarded Mustang of the Month for her class. Every month a teacher picks a student who is doing well academically and has good citizenship. She was very excited. We also took Nick out of class so he could see her get the award. Made me realize how old NIck is getting because boy did he think he was too cool to talk to me. Little stink!!

 I can't believe how much Nicholas and Sammy are looking alike. It's cute! So glad they have each other. Love these 2. Notice the "I'm too cool to smile normal" face?

Lund Randomness

Our family is loud, crazy, and sometimes I just snap pictures to help remind me how funny these little munchkins are.

Sammy and Luke have this special thing going on. She draw him a picture right before she goes to bed and he will write her a message about the picture, and she wakes up to that message. This picture made my night. It's her and Luke under a rainbow holding hands. So sweet.

 Noah came down and asked if he looked like Justin Bieber

 We were watching tv one morning and I looked over at this. Boys.

 Noah is a lucky boy. Since we have a lot of time together we get to go to yummy places.

 This picture was the cutest. This year Nick joined Luke's family fantasy football. Luke and Nick were on the same team and they ended up winning this night and Nick was freaking out, which made the rest of them.

 Like Father Like Son. We were having a game night and someone said the word FART. They both started laughing uncontrollably. It was like I was looking at twins. So glad they have a fun dad that teaches them to laugh at potty words.

 Remember when you were in 3rd grade and you finally got the recorder to play? That day has come with Nick and he was estatic. Me? not so much.

 One day I came downstairs and saw this. Why yes it's Noah's bum again. He like being naked and I guess it's cool to be naked in the pantry.

 Flava Flav anyone?

 Parker LOVES his skinny jeans. Wait that's an understatement. He is OBSESSED with them. One of his homework assignments he had to write about something he loved. Yup he wrote about his beloved skinny jeans.

 Notice his heart he is making with his hands.

Until next time.

Winter Sports 2013

It's been a little crazy this season with sports. We now have 3 kids in stuff and it makes for crazy weeks and Saturdays. It has made this last month of pregnancy go by really fast. Nick and Parker played basketball. They both loved it. Nick was a on a great team with a great coach. It was the perfect team for Nick to be on. He wasn't on a team where there were a ton of kids better than him which meant he played a lot and was able to really progress. There were a couple games where he made the winning shot. It was more competitive this year which made it so fun for me. I tend to get a little crazy!

This was Parker's first year playing and he tore it up! They don't keep score(oh but I do!!) and they don't allow you to steal the ball. It's all about learning the basics. Luke coached his team and he loved that. He had a great season and came away from each game shooting 3 or 4 baskets.

Samantha started Volleyball and really liked it. I forced her into this one. I told her she needed to do something physical. I gave her a few options and she said no to all of them, so I picked for her. Mother always knows best , right? She isn't the best on the team at all but she has learned and grown so much from the start to the end. It has helped her shyness and she has asked to play again for the next season. Crossing my fingers she continues to do it. Not to mention she looks so cute in her uniform.

Now it might seem I have more pictures of Sammy than the boys. Yes, it's true but during the boys games I was usually by myself with a crazy 3 year old and didn't really have time to snap a bunch of pictures. With Sammy I always had Luke there to help. Makes a huge difference!

Girls trip

At the end of January Sammy and I took a little break from all the testosterone in our house and flew on over to San Fransisco to see my sister Amy and her family. Her husband is in dental school there and he graduates soon. We won't have a good excuse to visit anymore so we had to take advantage of it. With Luke going out of town a lot he accumulates miles and so our flight was free. Score!! It was Sammy's first time on a plane that she remembers. She flew to Hawaii when she was 6 months old. She was so excited and couldn't stop smiling.

She loved being able to play with her cousin Daphne and be her little babysitter. I loved spending time with my baby sister. It was a blast. We went to the beach, ate, and just relaxed. I wasn't in the mood to go into the city and walk all over. I wanted a relaxing vacation and that's what I got. I was so glad I was able to spend it with Sammy before this baby comes and she isn't the only girl anymore. We told all the boys that they will get their turn to go see a cousin and fly there.

Ready for take off

 Me and Amy.

 She did my hair for me that day. I loved it, and it has never looked that like that again.

 They loved playing at the beach. The weather was perfect!

 Going home. Boo!!
