What has been happening

In August we added #5 to our family. Levi was born on August 18. He weighed 8lbs 4 oz, he was my biggest baby. We then had Andrew's parents down for a week. We had lots of fun and was sad to see them go.
I had Robby and Leah's IEP meetings and I am very happy with the way things are going with them. Peter is still behind but is learning things albeit slowly.
We are enjoying Arizona but miss the fall colors and the snow. I am currently trying to crochet a Pikachu and it is coming about slowly. I want to start quilting. In order to do that I need to get some quilting frames. I am enjoying being a stay at home mom but really need to find something that I can do from home and make a little money.

French bread pizza pockets

I decided to make French bread. The recipe said that you could put pizza stuff in the middle so we did that.
Here is Leah rolling out the dough. After we had the dough rolled out we put the pizza stuff in the middle.
Here is the dough with the pizza stuff in the middle. 
Then you roll it up like you would cinnamon rolls and put it on the pan and cut 5 slits in the top. Put it in the oven and cook it. 
Before putting it in the oven. Next time I will flip it over so the seam is on the bottom. I would also let it rise a little before you cook it. It leaked cheese an d stuff all over the pan. It tasted pretty good I am freezing them for lunches.

Thoughts

This is currently what my main bath looks like.
Having your main bath torn up is a big pain. Especially if you are pregnant because the smell is 10 times worse than it normally would be. The main thing I hate is the noise from the fans. So much for conserving energy right now hopefully next month will be better. 
On another note we are slowly unpacking and finding stuff. The kids were very excited to find a box of books. Once we are all unpacked and more settled in I need to make a chore chart so the kids can start doing some sort of chores.

Love home ownership

We have been in our new house for five days. We have already has a water leak and water damage from the leak. Our main bath is torn up so we can get the walls and under the kitchen counters dry. I really don't know how we will pay our deductible but The Lord will provide away. 
In other news we really love our house. We have so much more room than our house in Utah. The kids are all out of school and hopefully I cam keep them entertained during summer break. I am going to do mommy school and have them work on different things during the summer.

Great news

We are expecting number 5. The crazy thing we are doing is not finding out what gender the baby is. We are going to be surprised.
We found a house we like and our offer was excepted. Now we have to do all the paper work and hopefully we will be closing around May 2nd.
That's all for now hopefully I will update better in the future.

Going to do better

I am going to try and do better at writing the blog. Our dishwasher in our apartment died. I don't like washing dishes by hand but Leah and Peter have been helping. The repair guy came by today and we will be getting a new dishwasher hopefully sometime this week.
Zion eating pizza that daddy brought home.
Andrew is enjoying work. They even had a birthday party for him. 
The kids have been doing good in school. They like going on a drive and stopping at a random park to play. We have found a lot of parks that the kids like that way. 
I am a stay at home mom but I would like to find something that I could do from home. We are enjoying Phoenix but miss playing in the snow and we miss our families. Overall I think this was a good move for us as a family
