Sweet Clovi

All smiles

Herniated belly button, it sticks straight out! The doctor says once her stomach muscles join back together it will go down, but right now she reminds me of the cabbage patch babies when they had the outy buttons

She's my little monkey baby. She's got these big round adorable eyes that remind us of an orangutan baby. That is meant in the cutest way possible I might add.

The thought of her moving out of the bassinet into the crib makes me want to cry! And that is very soon.

She knows when I am in the room.

She can't make me mad which is bad for the other two because they always do.

Loves LOVES the swing, she could swing all day and you could almost forget she's there, so quiet and happy in that thing.

Loves when you sing to her, my specialty, you are my sunshine. I think she tries to sing back because that's when you get her to coo the most.

Has major anxiety when her sister comes near and for good reason she shoves her fingers down her throat to let me know she's hungry, made a running leap onto her belly, constantly pokes her in the face. I think one day she will love her.

Her Brenn can always make her smile, but not like her momma. I'm her favorite for sure. She cries when daddy holds her after work cause he smells bad, at least that's why mom says she does.

Ever Monster

I got such a hard time from so many people when I told them what I was going to name her. They all thought it was a weird name, and then a couple of weeks ago Kurt was listening to the radio and they were giving a list of the top 20 non tradtional names in the US this year. Number 19 was Ever and number 20 was Everly. So apparently I am not as original as I thought and HA to all the nay sayers!!

As you can plainly see there are many faces to my crazy girl. And she pulls them all the time! Her current favorite is rolling her eyes at you when she is annoyed which actually looks like she is going cross eyed but then she glares and you get the picture.

Some of her favorite songs include, the itsy bitsy spider, rock a babe yeah! (Rock a bye baby), slippery fish, ABC's (and she actually knows the whole thing), I am a pizza!

She can count to ten perfectly every time and Brenn gets to 5, gives up and says 10!

Trace super hot!

She is such a little mime and copies everything we do or say. So you know nice things like shut up and punch you in the face (thank you Tyson and Tracy).

All the princesses have been combined into one word, and it took me only 2 weeks to figure out what the heck she was saying, Prince a rella ella!

All her 'e' sounds come out as yeahs, dadyeah, Cloyeah etc. except for horsey, that comes out just fine. Have I ever mentioned she loves horseys???

Every sentence ends in 'K' for example, I play with my horsey k mom? I thought she was so funny until I noticed how I talked to her and all MY sentences end with 'k'. For example, Ever don't do that ok? Come over here and clean up your mess k... My little mime!
Any question you ask her is answered with cause, 'Ever what are you doing? "Cause"' Ummm ok...

I still hold firm to her craziness. Everything is over the top for her, her emotions, her climbing skills (found her climbing onto my refridgerator), and her temper. Sheesh look out.

She loves to give loves! Poor Clovi gets mauled on a daily basis and I literally have to pry her off of my baby and poor me when she crawls into bed at night she has to touch me with boths hands. One of the face the other on the neck .

She is very sweet, she wants you so bad to just say good job Ever and when you do she lights up and says it back to herself in a super high voice. It is so funny especially since right now she is getting potty trained and so when she goes I get so excited and congratulate her and she immediately proceeds to congratulate herself. Sounds like me, she must be my daughter! We aren't affraid to admit we are awesome.

My Brenn

These are some of my favorites pictures and things about my boy! It was so fun to look through all these pictures when I decided to do a post on each of my kids. It took me forever to decide on what pictures I wanted on here we literally have so many of him. I forgot how much I loved this guy. We had Ever so fast and then Clovi you have to spread your love around, but for a year and a half I just had him and he was my life. I almost miss the simplicity of that even though I love our little family. So here are my favorite pictures and current conversations and attitudes of our little man who by the way starts preschool in two weeks.

"Mom I want a hotdog for lunch, let's go to Home Depot."

"Mom will you come push play on my movie for me?

Brenn you know how, you do it.

I can't push anymore buttons, my finger has a finger belly ache."

"Come here little fella" referring to his father

If you do something he likes or tell him yes it's always followed by 'You're the best mom!'

"Brenn you can't have that, it's just for babies.

When I'm a baby can I have it?

You'll never be a baby again, you'll just keep getting big.

What about when I'm a girl?

You'll never be a girl just a boy who keeps getting big.

What?!"

"Brenn go get me a plastic bag for the diapers please.

Why do I have to do that all the day?

That's your job.

What's yours?"

Brennen has always been such a good boy. I think I take for granted how much of a help he is to me. He's my diaper getter, treat grabber, and time out guard. He somehow thinks he is in charge of the home, which when I want to be in charge, I get frustrated but when I am up feeding Clovi or getting something done I love that I know he'll come get me if something is wrong and will keep Ever from getting hurt.

He loves to tattle which I can't decide how I feel about it because on one hand it's very annoying but on the other at least he comes and gets me instead of taking matters into his own hands which ends in fist fights and lots of screaming.

He loves to talk and I believe likes the sound of his own voice because sometimes he says the same thing over and over and over or just makes funny noises really loud.

He has the most active imagination, one time while he was in the tub I was folding laundry and could hear him saying the funniest things so I walked in to see what he was doing and he was playing Transformers (of course) with a comb! That's it, one comb! He always tells me he's just pretending, I love that he can play for hours completely entertained by just the things around him. But, if I'm not careful he would become a couch potatoe so we have to limit his TV time. But oh what a great babysitter that is sometimes.

He can be quite the little liar, everything is Ever's fault which I actually don't doubt but some of his stories are a little far fetched for even me. For example, he kept having accidents and I was getting so frustrated with him. We were at Marie's and he had another one and comes up to me and says, "Mom my underwear is wet, Ever came right up to me and peed in it." I was laughing so hard I had a hard time getting mad. He is so sweet with his sisters, very caring about their safety and if they are happy. He's just a sweet boy every morning he always asks, "How was your sleep tonight mom?" And he sits and actually waits for my answer. We love this kid!

Let's update

We've been pretty busy this past month and a half so prepare yourselves for a picture overload. I've decided to print each year out in a book like my journal so sorry for the overload of detail that's just for me.

My dear friend Ashley bought me these outfits for the girls when Clo was born and they now fit. Do you love the picture? This was the best one!

Natalie came up at the end of July from California and I asked if her and Greg (her main squeeze) would run the Harrisville 5k with me to take my mind of my misery since I just started back up since Clo was born. And from there we collected quite the crowd. Here we all are. Ever and Eden even asked to join us. Little did we know Eden would unleash the devil within and make Marie run and carry her part of the way. But who am I kidding I was grateful for it because my uterus was screaming obscenities at me after mile one! This last pregnancy has been super hard on my body and I'm finding it harder to lose the weight. Meh

After the 5k was the parade and we found ourselves a prime position and got a butt load of candy. I kid you not a full grocery bag full. Greg was apparently deprived as a child and now hoards the candy when he sees it! Holla Greg!! This is his pure joy face with sugar!

The next day was Clovi's blessing! Here are the babes during the beautification process.

Here's my sweet girl! So pretty in her dress. It turned out so nice Kurt did a great job. He said the whole time during the blessing Clovi just stared at him and smiled. I think she knew how lucky she was.

My cute kids

Apparently family pictures are going to turn out like this from now on! Look at Brennen! He kills me...

All the Hutchison girls

The whole family. We were excited everyone is in here.

The cute couple. P.S. We love Greg, he fits in quite nicely even bought the family a gift.. I know right? Already figured out our love for gifts. It was a plaque that said,

The Hutchison Family

We are awesome!

Love it!! Hung it up immediately

B and E took swimming lessons and it was hilarious. Brennen had his own class and I was in the class with Ever. The water was shockingly cold every morning and so Ever was a turd. Anytime you asked her to do something her answer was always the same, 'No way!' And you of course could hear it across the pool, all volume that girl, volume and attitude!

We went to Bear Lake for the day during Raspberry Days and spent the day at the beach.

Here is Clovi, the wind was blowing and it unfortunately ruined her sun bathing.

The kids loved playing on the beach, we made sand castle's...

danced, dumped sand all over us...

and buried Brennen! Then best of all got us some Raspberry shakes and fries. Perfect little trip.

Here's the babe. We love her!! So sweet and calm, she makes us smile everyday.
