Baby Haven!

My cute sister in law took some pictures of Haven yesterday. She is still editing them, but I had to post one for now because I thought they were so adorable.
Shooting a newborn is NOT easy, this little girl loves to be bundled up in her blanket, so as soon as we would take it off of her she would wake up. Photographers must have a lot of patience. Thanks Jordan for doing such a great job and having tons of patience. I will add more pictures as they come.

Baby Hull has Arrived!

Haven Jean Hull
Born: January 19th, 2011
Time: 11:24pm
Weight: 8lbs 3.6oz

That's right, we finally have our little girl! After the perfect epidural and half a push, she was here. I was waiting to see if we had another red head, and then they all couldn't believe that she had blond hair. Who knew that wasn't a common thing either with newborns. So, NO red hair, but we got a little blondie. She looks just like our other babies did, like their dad! Morgan got to come visit her new little sister while the other kids were at school. She was excited to see her, but she didn't want her to come home with us. It's better now though.
Henry is so sweet and gentle with little Haven. He is such a caring little brother and wants to keep an eye on her at all times. He came to the hospital and asked me when the baby was going to come out of my tummy because it was still big(kids are too honest), I told him that it already had. Too funny!

Now if anyone needs a helper, this little momma is mine and you can't have her. She was sent to me for many reasons, one of which is to be a big helper. She wants to hold Haven all the time and do things for me. It is wonderful, okay sometimes it can be annoying, but for the most part, I LOVE IT!!! She is so excited to be a big sister again and to tell everyone about her new little sister!
Going home from the hospital! I had forgotten how little these babies are. So precious though!

It was fun to get visitors in the hospital. I have never had sisters living by me when I've had babies, so it was fun to get two of my sisters to come and visit me. I will post more pictures later! Haven has been such a good little baby so far and has let me sleep a little and doesn't cry very much. I know that she isn't very old and things can change, but I'm crossing my fingers she'll stay the same!

I can't believe our family is now up to 6. Crazy at how fast things can change!

Happy New Year!

We were going to stay home for New Years, but then Jason decided to take a few days off, so we headed up to Logan to my sisters house! We were there for a few days and the kids loved playing with all their cousins. The kids got to stay up a little later on New Years Eve and we had a pretend countdown at 10pm with noisemakers and rootbeer floats. It was fun for them, although Henry was confused as to why they were doing all this.
Lani and Dave came up from Vegas as well. What a party crowd they look like!




Everyone got to go skiing, so I stayed back with these two cuties and we had a fun little day together. They are the same age(okay Morgan is 5 months older and yes she is smaller) and love playing with each other.

Happy 9th Anniversary!

We just had our 9th Anniversary! Wow, I can't believe that it has been that long, time flys way too fast! We have been through a lot together and have lived in quite a few places in the past 9 years. We have 4 kids now, crazy!
We were able to go out to dinner, movie, and a night away from the kids at a hotel for our Anniversary! Thanks to Jasons mom for watching the kids! It was nice to have one last night together before having another child join our family.
The neatest thing though was when I got a knock at the door and someone handed me flowers. I can't tell you the last time I got flowers was, so it made me a little teary eyed with excitement from being appreciated and loved, I guess. Katelyn noticed and gave me a little hug, it was a fun/cute moment.
Thanks Jason for being such a great husband and for 9 wonderful years together, and many many more to come!

A Hull Christmas!

We had a great Christmas with Jasons family at our house. His sister came down from Canada, so the kids has lots of cousins to play with. Jason took Katelyn and Henry skiing for their first time and they did pretty good and didn't complain about it.
We were able to go down to Temple square to see all the Christmas lights, although we chose the wrong day and it was way to busy, but still had fun. The kids had a lot of fun playing with cousins and getting ready for Santa to come visit. We played out the nativity story, Katelyn was Mary, Henry was a shephard, and Morgan was one of our Angels. It was fun being able to stay at our house and keep traditions going that we both had while we were growing up.
The kids had a great Christmas and got more than they needed, but I had fun shopping and spoiling them. They all got pillow pets and were quite excited, they carry them and sleep with them every night.
Jason got me a 'Dyson Vaccuum,' which I was quite surprised about and glad to finally have a vaccuum that sucks!
So enjoy the many random pictures from our Christmas and during the holidays!

Family Christmas Pictures!

Here are the best pictures that I could get. We were trying to hurry right before church and trying to use the self timer, so give us a little break.
I always get the girls matching dresses and then we happened to find matching ties for Jason and Henry, and he was pretty excited to be like dad. Yeah I can't bend down the far and Morgan is laughing at me, great family pictures!
Like I said, we ran out of time and our heads were cut off, but this would've been a great one. Next year, we'll call a neighbor for some help.


My ever growing Belly!

These pictures are for those of you that have told me that keep forgetting that I'm pregnant because you live so far away. Anyway, I'm definetely still pregnant and here are a few pictures to prove it.
This first one was taken beginning of December, so I would've been about 33 weeks prego!

Jasons cute neices wanted a picture of us together, so we had to do our traditional belly picture. Jason has actually been losing weight lately and so he is really pushing his stomach out for this one, but his neices said that I'm still smaller, so you can also be the judge.
I only have a couple weeks to go, yeah. I am actually pretty excited now because I have been so sick this pregnancy with the flu and now I have the worst cold/sore throat ever. I have absolutely NO Voice. My poor kids look at me like 'What are you talking about mom.' Although they can't ever tell when I'm mad at them so they think that they can get away with more!

Christmas Day!
