It is over for me.

This is Derek writing to tell you all that all of the testosterone has vanished from this home as can be witnessed by the new layout of the blog. I am now accepting tools, motorcycles, punches to the face or any other manly object that can bring hope to my life. I love my girls.

Better late than never!!

A couple of pictures of our trip to Running Y Ranch. We had a great time and took a much needed break.





Here we are in the lava caves.









On our way up to see Crater Lake it was snowing. This is just the start of the snow. By the time we reached the top, there was at least 2.5 feet of snow!

KJ on TOO much sugar!!

Those are Polly Pocket shoes jammed in her nose!

It is finally ready and MAN do we enjoy it!!

Our hot tub is here and working! We all had a chance to jump in this morning and we are all in HEAVEN! The offer is open to all, come on over for some heat and relaxation.

Going to Grammy's

The last two weeks Grammy has had the girls over so that Derek and I could run some errands together. It has been so nice and REALLY appreciated!

Mimi comes to make curtains

Mimi came over this weekend to make curtains for the new baby's nursery. They girls even managed to have Mimi let them sew a little. They turned out so cute, I cannot wait until the room is finished. I will post pictures for you all to see!

Just over 7 weeks to go

Okay, I am getting really brave here. I am only posting these because I have had requests from friends and family out of state who want to see my belly. Today was an overcast and gloomy day but while I was working, it caught my attention. I set up the shot and had Derek come in a snap a couple of pictures. I am getting so close to having this baby and being pregnant no longer. I have promised my self to really enjoy this process. I cannot wait to meet our new daughter!

Look at KJ


If this is not a KJ look, then I do not know what is. I just love this new photo of her I took while getting ready to meet Peyton at the bus stop. I know she looks sweet and innocent but do not let those eyes fool you!

Two of my favorite women!

Here is a picture of me and my mom and my sister. My friend took it of us at a recent wedding I was photographing and they were guests at. It has been a while since the three of us have had a nice picture done of us, and I love this one.

Letting go, just a little

Peyton's true first day of Kindergarten and she wanted to ride the bus rather than have us take her. I captured some of the moments. Enjoy watching three of my favorite women in the world!

Just back from the coast today!!

Derek's sister Kaela is in town for a week from California visiting us, so we took her to our resort at the Oregon coast. We had a great time and the weather was AMAZING!! We went swimming first and then Kaela and Derek went to shop at Nike. Pizza filled out tummies later in the evening. Today we went to breakfast, went to the beach, and did a little shopping. We love the Oregon coast.


My three favorites!!

Peyton was so happy being pampered by our friend Deeanna. She took off some inches for Peyton before school started.

Peyton is sick today

On Tuesday Peyton got sick but she has felt better the next couple of days. This morning she woke up with a 102 fever. She has some blotches on her face from being so hot and a really sore throat. She is such a good little patient. Kennedy of course is getting stir crazy. I will try and be better at posting next week, with some more pictures too! Have a great weekend.

26 more days!!!!

We found out that we will get to find out the sex of the next Carmon baby on Sept. 5th. We are so excited and will keep you informed with the news!!


Here is what is happing in my belly right now:
Head to bottom, your baby is approximately 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a large sweet potato) and she weighs almost 7 ounces. She's busy flexing her arms and legs — movements that you'll likely start noticing more and more. Her blood vessels are visible through her thin skin and her ears are now in position and stand out from her head.

This girl is 100% entertainment!!!

Here is a picture of Kennedy today. She came into my office while I was working wearing my boots. Earlier this morning while I was checking my email she decided to put bright red lipstick in her eyebrows. I tried to get it off, so it might be hard to see. Did I mention the afro??? Okay and to top it all off, she has a green fruit snack stuck in the bottom of her front teeth!! She loves the song by Shania Twain...I feel like a woman. I thought this would be a perfect opportunity for her to show you her dancing skills. Enjoy!! Watch out American Idol, Kennedy will be ready for your bloopers tape in a couple of years!!!

Here is the next Shania Twain

Matthew Leigh Edwards is here!!!

Here he is. My newest cousin, Matthew Lee. He is so dang cute. He was born on Tuesday and we were able to go visit him last night. Mom and Dad are doing very well and seem VERY happy. The girls loved holding him and it made me even more excited for our new baby to come.
