Lazy February Weekend

It's 4pm on a Saturday afternoon, and quite honestly, this is probably the first time since BEFORE Christmas, that we've been completely lazy for an entire weekend. What's sad, we're all so exhausted we don't even care that we're not out in this beautiful weather we're having. It's nearly 60 outside...but between the muddy mess that is our driveway/yard and the fact that we're all four fighting colds, I guess there's a reason we're not out and about.

So, I figured, since we're just hanging out, I'd share some recent pictures, and let them tell the story of what we've been up to. Suffice it to say, life is good.

First snowmobile ride!

He loved it, as if you couldn't tell...

I think he's going to be like his Dad, and LOVE the snow and cold!

We broke up the winter doldrums with a quick trip to Buccaneer Bay!



Our newest fish...luckily, our kids LOVE the water!

Colton typically is too busy to lay down and watch a movie. I realize now, it's that he's to worried this will happen!


Emmalyn was the "Belle of the Ball" at Jenna's baby shower...well, next to Jenna! :)

Colton and Mamps farming!

First trip to the park...still a bit chilly, but fun!

Always happens. He was mad because we wouldn't let him play basketball with complete strangers. How rude of us, huh? 

He came around.

She loved this!


Sleepy girl...that half hour of fresh air wore her out!

Okay, if you get out your bifocals, you can see we have a tooth...bottom center!

This was when the tooth was coming...

This was Jason. ALL DAY today...





Em's other new trick...crawling!

  1. I'm sorry you all aren't feeling too well. I hope that the lazy day at home is the right medicine to get you feeling better. Love all the pictures of the kids. How exciting that Emmalyn is crawling! I'm sure you have already found out that it is absolute crazyness to have two mobile children!

Get Well Soon, Grandpa Kent

 Here's the best way to share Dad's video. Thank you all so much for submitting the clips. This really made him smile (and say some funny things the first time we watched soon after anesthesia). I think it will be treasured company this evening in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers, your thoughts, for answering the phone calls and lifting Dad up. We appreciate all your love and support.  58E2238E-D2E3-4B38-9FF6-AE1E502ABD14.mp4

Two + Two + One more = FIVE

Yup, you read that right, by the end of July, the Stockment's will officially be a family of five. Jason and I learned in mid-November that we were expecting our third child and we were both overjoyed with the news. (More so than I thought Jason would be -- he wasn't convinced on having another (or should I say, not as convinced as I was), but once he saw that baby's heartbeating on the monitor at the docs office, he couldn't keep it a secret anymore!!) I convinced Jason to keep our news to immediate family, however, failed to remember that we have a VERY chatty 4 year old, and a 2 year old who repeats everything her big bro says! :) So, we told our families on a Tuesday evening (after our doc appointment that afternoon) and by Thursday, I think half of White County knew. If you attend or drop children off to attend Pam's daycare or Bright Beginnings Preschool, you were amongst the first to know! I had hoped for some elaborate scheme to tell both of our parents ...

Life's Beachy

What a whirlwind month March has been! From the baby reveal to birthday parties (Madi turning 3, Sawyer turning 2 and soon Brad & Debbie!), to Jason working weekend after weekend at his side job, to moving Matt & Sarah into their new home, to Jason getting a new job, to kindergarten round up, to preparing for Florida....whew! Yup, you read that right -- after 14 years with Bouma Betten, Jason is making a jump. He applied for a job with Monsanto in Remington, and was lucky enough to be offered the job just last week. I am so beyond proud of him -- he's not a resume/interview kind of guy, but he put his best foot forward and proved what a hard worker he is. He'll start there as a Seed Tech in mid-April and although it will mean big changes for him (and US!), it will be worth it. The benefits cannot be topped...vacation time, paid time off for sick leave, 401K, health -- all things he didn't have (or did have, but not great) in his current job. It will certainly be a...
