Naomee's new talents!

Naomee has decided she wants to be a hairdresser. She has discovered that she likes to do her own hair. This is just one of her creations. She really wanted me to take a picture of it.

She has also started to write, but she doesn't know what she is writing. She can just copies letters, which to me is pretty surprising. She can duplicate them almost perfectly.

If you look carefully you can see the words "Tillamook Premium Ice cream" written among other letters.

She asked me if I had written on this bucket, (which I had when I put oatmeal in it), and then asked if she could write on it too. I said sure, thinking that she would just color on it. When she showed me her work, it shocked me that she had copied the words that were written on the bucket, even the ones I had written. (Quick Oats). She had been very excited about writing lately, and learning all her numbers. We have finished of several workbooks, between Sacrament meeting and home time. She will go far in school I think. I don't see her having some of the same hang ups as her sisters have had to face. At least that is my hope.

Shawn's Recent Campout!!

The five boys that attended this campout. All deacons!

This is a 4 1/2 boy tree. (As Shawn says)

One of the cool mushrooms that Shawn captured for me!
They got a lesson on what was poisonous and not.

One of the cool features on there backpacking adventure. It rained continually on this thing.

Shawn is now the Scoutmaster and Deacon's quorum advisor. So he can't miss any of the scouting trips, not that he would willingly. This place that they went was a last minute choice, but turned out to be a new favorite of Shawn's. He was fascinated by this place. He says that next summer he will make sure we as a family go. (They had to hike into camp about 4 miles) I told him we will see. But he loved it, so that is what counts.

BOY OR GIRL?

THUMBSUCKER!

BOY!

Ok yesterday I found out what I was having. Shawn and Naomee went with me, it was a very fun afternoon. I can tell you I had tears in my eyes when the technician said we were having a BOY!!!! He is very active, he was doing flips galore. In the course of about 2 mins he had flipped over 4 times. The technician had to "chase" the little tyke down just to get measurments. He is very healthy and right on schedule. His name will be Payton Shawn Harbert.

Conference weekend!

I decided that this year to try and get the kids more involved with listening to conference. I didn't have any printer ink so I couldn't print of any of the numerous packets that we received plus that doesn't keep their attention for long. So I pulled out a puzzle that we received a couple of Christmas' ago. It was the perfect puzzle for a conference setting, it was a Greg Olsen portrait. It kept Cadie's attention for all of one session and part of another. Madie's attention was much less. Naomee just played with the pieces like they were cars. Shawn even helped a little here and there. We started it on Saturday afternoon session and I finished it up Monday morning. It was great.

RESULTS ARE IN!

Ok, so I got my results in from my long glucose test.... Drum roll please.....
Just kidding, I didn't pass. I have been told that all the tests came back too high, even the one they took while fasting. My only one that came back within normal range was the last draw at the 3 hour mark. But they did say even that was on the high end of normal. I have been scheduled for my education classes to teach me what I need to do to take care of this. Luckily for me I have done this before and know what I am in for, but it is good that I have to do the classes again. It has been 7 years since I have done it, I have forgotten most of the details.
On a good note, I have just to wait until Monday to see the baby. Shawn and I are getting really excited to see the baby. The girls have been making predictions and they keep changing according to what they prefer at the moment. So if you have not made your prediction and voted yet you still have 3 days.
