Each team had their own cheer. Kaydree's was the PURPLE SCREAM!
Kaydree getting piggy back rides brought back memories. Being the shortest one has it's advantages!
It was two full days filled with FUN!
The city puts on a Safety Camp run by Police Officers, Fire Fighters and Paramedics, every summer for two days, for Third and Fourth Graders. It was the best 30 dollars we have ever spent.
They got a T-shirt, water bottle, Bike Helmet, two lunches, four snacks, a medal, ice cream and root beer social, a dance, and a day of swimming.
The best thing they received was the relationships they formed with each other, the police officers, fire fighters and paramedics. Kaydree learned about fire safety, poison control, being alone and safe, bicycle safety, seat belt safety, first aid (which she has performed on Karsyn twice already, in a very serious manner!), and water safety. 
Hailey, Brynn and Kaydree are inseparable! They had such a great school year together that they were due to hang out for two full days, again!
Kaydree was not happy that she missed their visit. Karsyn thought she was pretty big holding a 4 day old baby!
Look at that little foot! So adorable.
Little Megan is a beautiful baby!
Karsyn snuggled right up to her!
Karsyn always has money stashed in places and Timmy found one of her dollars! It was a quick visit but it really meant a lot to us and made us so excited to have a little one around again to snuggle!
As most of you know last week was somewhat difficult for me to be away from our little peanut. We were all very excited to see her at Grandpa (G--pa's as Kaydree calls him now?) and Grandma's. Kaydree included! Auntie Lori did her hair and put some of Grandma's flowers in her braids, she was so excited, actually I think they are in the back of my car wilting right now...
Kaydree got to go out with me for "Girl's Night Out," at Applebee's for about 25 minutes and she had a fun time grossing us out with her tooth. She did lose it Friday, right before we left. As you can see it was hanging by one little root. GROSS
My niece, Korin, holding one of the little kitties.
Spencer and Makenna snuggling our dog, Charlee and his nephew Baxter, (Spencer and Emily's dog).
The guys cut down a tree and the kids had fun pretending they were building a house with furniture.
These were some of Karsyn's treasures that she found out at Grandpa's and Grandma's during the week. She was so excited and carried them around everywhere it was the first thing she wanted to show us.
She decided on tacos. She had browned the hamburger at Activity Days for Sloppy Joe's, so she thought she was a pro at this!
She didn't like cutting the olives because they were slippery little stinkers!
When she went to cut the tomatoes she said, "Don't worry Mom, I know how to do this, I do it all the time on Cookin' Mama!" (Her Nintendo D.S. Game!)
She got her first taste of crying from cutting an onion!
She thought cutting the lettuce was fun!
The finished product! She did a GREAT JOB and she was so PROUD of herself. I think she not only surprised me but herself! She said, "I think it tastes better than normal, probably because I made it!" I thought it is funny how they appreciate it that much more when they are the ones putting in the effort! As we started eating, she said, "Well, this is kind of weird, just you and I sitting at the dinner table!" I said, "It seems so quiet without Karsyn around!" Benjy got home as we were finishing up and he did the dishes, so I scored a great night!
I don't know if we got a final head count, but there were a lot of friends and family there!
Karsyn and the Birthday Girl! I don't think there was a dry eye in our family when Lori pulled up. It was so fun to see Lori so surprised. She got out of the car and said, "You guys are soooooo dead!" She was crying and I hope she could see and feel how much we all love her!
Grilling Burgers and Hot dogs. 
My cousin Suzi, her son Chase and friend.
My Grandma Ruth (She wasn't feeling well at all!) and my Cousin Samantha.
The kiddos watching the Whopper Hopper getting set up. That thing was used the entire day!
My Beautiful 15 year old niece, who just got a cute little sporty car, Courtney! She helped her dad keep the secret from her mom!
It was fun having people camp at my Parent's house. I think there were 3 campers and 7 tents?
As of now, everything looks really good. The placenta is attached on the right side, but high and the baby is growing and moving around like crazy! Karsyn got to come with us and she wasn't sure what she thinks of this whole thing yet. Kaydree was so bummed that we didn't take her out of school for it and now I do regret that decision! It was the coolest most detailed ultrasound that I have ever had. Karsyn saw that I was crying and asked why. I was just so amazed at how this almost 3 inch baby could be seen so clearly. Kicking, moving, waving, rolling and looking at us! It was sooooo neat. To watch its little legs kicking and crossing and scrunching up was so unbelievable! We could see the individual chambers of the heart and could see little bubbles in its stomach and the technician said, "That is a sign that the baby is swallowing!" 
The technician asked us if we wanted to find out the sex of the baby. Benjy said, "Yes. Well I guess I should ask you, Kristen, do you?" Ha Ha.... So she looked at the internal organs and said, "I wouldn't paint a room based off of this, but it looks like a boy." She went on to measure some other things and then came back down to the legs and just then the baby opened its legs and she said, "Oh boy, it's a BOY!" She froze the picture and put a square around two little round shaped items and said, "Those are definitely boy parts!" The heart rate had dropped to 144 so I was thinking it was a boy and this pregnancy has been sooooo different from the girls, so now everything makes sense! I am really excited, Kaydree is really excited, Benjy and Karsyn....well they are still getting use to the idea. 
BABY BOY VILLARREAL!
I bought some little boy shoes from my cousin Sam a couple of years ago and I just couldn't part with them yet, so now I know why! I put a pair out on the front step for Kaydree to find when she got off the bus and then hung a pair from the door handle. It was so funny to watch her pick them up, turn them over and stand staring at them. Then when she went to open the door and she found another pair, she yelled out, "We're having a boy! Yay!" The girls get such a kick out of little boys and they make the girls laugh so much that Kaydree said, "I think there is going to be a lot of laughing in our house!"
