LOVE

Well, I have been waiting to share this.....We are having another sweet little GIRL! I am 20 weeks pregnant with a healthy little girl. We are excited and thankful. I am due August 16th. We are so looking forward to summer....reunions, swimming, baby, all of it! Now comes the hard part...names! We will let you know! Love you all.

Okay...so this post is especially for my cousin Lexie in Texas! She asked for pictures of Kennedy who is almost 20 months! Here are a few I took today. Playing outside is one of our favorite things to do. Bentley is a great brother....and loves to teach Kennedy the ropes!

We are an athletic family......or at least we try. Bentley has ridden scooters since he was 2, and started riding a bike without training wheels at 3. Kennedy is eager to learn the 3 wheeled scooter......I try to appease her and hold the handle bars and walk with her----she wants none of it! She is surely strong willed and confindent to boot.

We are so looking forward to spring and summer! We are hoping to see more of you then!

Our home....

Well, I wanted to post this of my Mr. Bentley! Yesterday we went out in the drive way to play soccer-while Kennedy watched in the kitchen eating her snacks. She laughed and laughed, and me and Bentley had some quality play time. Bentley is such a sweet and fun little guy. He is very thoughtful and a hard worker. We try to be healthy---and anytime he eats something he says, "mom, is this........good for my body?" He is a great brother and at almost 4 is up to his dads waist---Byron is 6'3". BUT he still LOVES TO CUDDLE with his MAMA! Family is happiness!

Well.....I talked with my brother Jared the other night, and we promised to post and send each other pictures of where we live......since we haven't been to each other's homes yet. So here are a few pictures of what we are working on, and completing in our new home.....notice the tape up---we are finishing painting the ceilings.

Our Bedroom...we love its size---you only see half the room---tons of windows with a breathtaking view every morning, and we love having our own bathroom.

The upstairs family room. We love the vaulted wood panel ceiling with lots of natural light. To the left you can see the upstairs fireplace.

The family room/dining room view. We love this extra table and area when we have friends over for dinner and games....so fun.

The kitchen.......I still have to put one more coat of paint on---it looks greenish-but is actually a great yellow shade---just not a huge priority until I accomplish some other things first. We love the granite in the kitchen, and there is so much cupboard storage I don't know what to do.

Anyway, that is the upstairs, the downstairs is coming---but sorry no pictures yet. Anyway we are doing well. Working and enjoying our little family!

Happy NEW YEAR!

Oh my goodness! I cannot believe I haven't been on here since May! Rediculous! We have been busy in many new things! First of All......We started remodeling a house on December 16th! Did it ourselves.....moved in on December 28th! Still moving in.......the house is only half completed, but we love it and are excited in our fixing up process. I do not have pictures yet---but will find them! We still live in East wenatchee. Now we just have a great view of the city and mountains, and have a LOT more space! We are looking forward to this new year with much gratitude, optimism and love ahead of us!!! Hope you are all well, and looking forward to catching up with each of you!

Things that happen when Byron's gone.....

Well Byron has been working out of town sometimes, and he is gone for 3-5 days at a time. So we have been getting a little mischeivious around the Lott home....
Spending more time at Grandma's---Bentley wanted to pick a flower to take home with us! I came outside and saw him pull this whole flower out of the ground-root and all-it was a stubborn flower.

Well, I cut MY HAIR! OVER 5 INCHES! Wahoo! It is a little shorter than I had in mind-but It is pretty cute.

Bentley helping with dishes-in the afternoon-and yes, I am in my lounge around the house clothes! I love these all-comfy clothes-and I would not wear them all day if I knew Byron was coming home!

The hair cut-and highlights! Wahoo---and for lunch Bentley and I ate half a watermelon-our summer staple food! We are excited to show Dad all of our fun!!!!

Happy mother's day!

Hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! We spent the day with my family. The guys made Mexican food-and we ATE IT! My brother Colton also called from his mission in Guatemala! It was soooo great to talk to him! He is doing very well. He is the most optomistic and happy guy I have ever known! He is a huge blessing-and we loved laughing and visiting with him!

THE MOTHERS.....

Me and Kennedy's 1st Mother's day! She is sooo happy!

The guys slaving away...it is good for them....

Phone call with Elder White......

Hope you all had a wonderful day-and celebrated the women in your lives that make you who you are! Love you all!
