The Somers Family: A break!
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2013/05/having-kids-sure-changes-your-life-of.html
Thursday, May 2, 2013. Having kids sure changes your life! Of course, everyone knows that, but it has become even more apparent to me this last week. Why? Because last week (and every week for the last 2 months. Before that I was essentially a single parent of 5 because Brice was working WAY too much. Good riddance to a crappy job! I will gladly take the uncertainty of unemployment over that any day! Honestly, it is SO MUCH EASIER! I went shopping with TWO kids instead of THREE- total vacay! But the real...

The Somers Family: January 2011
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 21, 2011. So, I used to put Alaina in her crib for time out sometimes (we weren't getting the full effect from the time outs elsewhere in the house because she would just keep getting up). But then when she woke up in the mornings or from naps she started saying, "I stop it whiny! And that made me feel bad. So I started just putting her in her room and letting the isolation be the time out even though she has all her toys. See, like this! Never a dull moment! She is into EVERYTHING! Sunda...

The Somers Family: March 2011
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 25, 2011. This is a post I've been wanting to do for a while. I've been collecting pictures specifically for this. Landon is between 6 and 7 months old in all these pictures. Since I'm on a roll, I figured I get it done now. So, why is it that we have to come up with names for things that used to just be the natural course of life? C'mon You need a name for it? Apparently, since in this culture we rely on pureed baby food. What are we, birds? SO much better than spoon feeding which I hate.

The Somers Family: July 2011
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. The Lord has a sense of humor. This time though, we did our part in the prevention department. We were entirely diligent in our birth control use and I have no explanation for how we have conceived yet another child. That's right. Baby #5 is on its way. You've GOT to be kidding me! I suppose that I knew there was another child waiting for us because when people would ask if we were done having kids, I would say that I. Or do we go anyway and pay the higher cost and find a midwife f...

The Somers Family: November 2011
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 4, 2011. A few weeks ago, we took advantage of one of the last few weekends of good weather and we went to Goblin Valley. It was awesome! I love camping. I can't think of a better place for my kids and my sanity. Nowhere else can I let 'em run lose without worrying incessantly about what they're breaking and who they're bothering and what messes they're making. It's so relaxing! Needless to say, he was a mess! I'm pretty much the biggest chicken in the world, which I guess is pretty cont...

The Somers Family: July 2012
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 16, 2012. So, life got pretty crazy for a while this summer! Hat a whirlwind of activities we've had lately! But it's been good! I'd been feeling overwhelmed with all the kids so my wonderful family in California decided to help preserve my kids' lives and they took the three older ones out to their houses for a while. We sent them off without any plans for when they would return and the way thing turned out, they ended up being in Cali for a week and a half before I joined them out there.

The Somers Family: May 2011

Thursday, May 19, 2011. The ones in the camera. I should blog those too so I can be totally caught up. Raelin showing off her sweet dance moves: I love some of the outfits she comes up with. Sometimes goofy, but still SO much cooler than mine when I was a kid. No, you may not see any pictures of that. They're fit to be burned. Landon was loving his sink bath. And it is officially camping season! We are all so excited! The creek (currently a river) was amazing! I love this smiley face! Ryker was having a ...

Friday, February 24, 2012. Ailey Jessa Somers is HERE! Thank goodness because my belly was HUGE! Skipping over loads of important recent events to bring you news of our new addition! This is Ailey Jessa Somers. Her first name is pronounced like Riley without the R; eye-lee. Her middle name is a combination of my brother Jesse and Brice's sister Melissa's names. She was born at home (love home birth! On February 22, 2012 (2/22/12; cool birth date, no? Then I told Brice I wanted to go for a short walk.

The Somers Family: June 2012
http://somersfamilyest2002.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 7, 2012. Something happened earlier today or yesterday and I thought, "I should put that on the blog" and now I can't remember what it was, so meanwhile, here are some pictures to enjoy. There's something about this type of overhead shot that I LOVE for little kids. It's like it exaggerates their littleness or something and it makes them look so cute! Cute sleepy baby all squished and curled up. A few weeks ago Alaina was a naughty princess (her words, not mine) and she CHOPPED her hair!
