Hipo....what?

Kenna likes to sing every song she hears...most of the time she makes up her own lyrics.

This is one of her latest songs.

The actual lyrics say "he has someting special" a song by Miley Cyrus called he could be the one.

Better late than never!!

So I know is has been a while....(Sorry Becky) Things have been crazy around here.
Derek decided to finally get the yard done, and for anyone who has seen out yard before, you know if needed it badly!! Sorry to all our neighbors that have to look at our horrible yard for the last 3 years!!

We started with the wall. It was the worst part of our yard. And the most expensive to fin...hence the reason we haven't done it earlier. This is the wass finished. It is over 7 feet tall at the highest point.

Saileen walking in the middle of it.

It was not a small undertaking.
Thanks to all the neighbor boys who came and helped!! You guys are awesome!!!

Then the tractor went to work leveling and getting the yard ready for grass. I think he took over 15 or 20 dump loads of dirt and rock out of here.

Then come the planter boxes fot the garden.
On goes the top soil and then LOTS and LOTS of raking. Then Derek had to put all the sprinkler heads back on and reset them all, and after 2 rainy and windy days, he finally got it done. ANd then more raking!

Finally grass day came and they sprayed on the Hydroseed. Pretty interesting to watch.

Now we have green dirt until the grass grows.

Here is a side view of our soon to be grass.

So there you have it, what we have been doing for the last few weeks. Oh and in the middle of all that my kids have been sick. For 3 weeks now we can't go a few days without someone throwing up. WHAT IS THE DEAL!!!! Is that normal? I just don't get it! I haven't gotten to go to church in forever! Hopefully it will be over soon! I really hope!

Anyway, I will put some 'belly pictures' up soon...we find out the gender on tuesday.

Any guesses?? I'll post a picture then.

Have a great day!!!!
