Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Friday, June 18, 2010. So I am not the greatest photographer but these are a few photos I took about a month ago. Rick started his PhD the other day and needed a photo for school. I love looking at this handsome man.

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Thursday, November 4, 2010. The kids still didn't catch on. It was a sweet moment when they saw their grandparents and even Simon seemed to know he was supposed to love these people instantly. Rachel needed to some warming up though. Grandma and Grandpa stayed on another night but we had to get back to St Louis. It was a quick trip but I am grateful for those few days and what it meant to our children. Rick a...

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Wednesday, July 28, 2010. Forged in the fires of Anne's belly, tested in the hospital rooms of St Louis and St Charles comes a new breed of warrior. Small, wiry(? It is Simon. His name strikes fear into the hearts of all men but most especially his siblings. His Mother may even cry "Uncle! Pray for this Mother! 19 pounds 9 ounces! Sunday, July 25, 2010. This photo blew me away, all of these children are mine!

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Thursday, February 23, 2012. Ammon When we were thinking of names for a baby while I was pregnant with our second child the name Ammon came up. He was a favorite missionary from the Book of Mormon for both of us, he is a favorite for a lot of people because, well, he's awesome! I was also relieved to know what was wrong, it was a like there was a weight lifted for a moment but then came the crashing reality t...

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Sunday, December 26, 2010. We had a great Christmas. Lots of parties. We received some lovely gifts and had the chance to relax and be together. We have had a crazy year and needed some time out, especially Rick who has had a lot going on. Last Christmas we got a dusting of snow and we were thrilled about it. This year we got an even bigger treat when we got about 2 inches of snow on Christmas Eve! I made hom...

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Monday, June 8, 2009. I had been waiting for a perfect day to take the kids to the Missouri Botanical Gardens and that day was Thursday. It was 72 degrees (about 25 for my down under friends) and no rain in the forecast. The Gardens are expansive and very beautiful. This photo reminded me of a scene from the Fellowship of the Ring, perhaps a little less grand! Everyone, put your hands together for. Rick and I...

Yes, I am finally finishing my series on my children! I said, but Rick thought it wouldn't hurt to get a pregnancy test. An hour later in I saw the positive sign, I was in shock, how could this happen? Rachel is fun, she gets along with the kids, Simon tried the kids patience so they warmed to Rachel quickly when she was not so in your face! Rick and ...

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. Tots, trees and toes! The tree I see from our kitchen window is a real treat each fall. It has grown a bit in a couple of years. A video for the Grandparents of the babies. All while the video downloaded. Wednesday, October 6, 2010. One field was devoted to the pipers and drummers and they played the whole day. It was amazing. This was part of the games, the log toss, it has a mor...

Two ordinary parents raising five children with super powers! We are outnumbered and outsmarted. Sunday, March 11, 2012. Simon When we found out I was pregnant with Simon, Bridgette was seven, we thought we were not going to have anymore children although there was always a feeling that we weren't done. We were nervous, I was not prepared physically, we were not sure if we were up to having a newborn. There were also the questions,"What if it is a boy? Will he have disabilities? Simon was cute, very cute!
