FFF - FuN iN tHe SuN

(ABOVE: I LOVE this picture of Jaden - look at those cheeks!)

Welcome to the latest edition of Sarah's (over at http://www.kissthefrog4me.blogspot.com) Favorite Foto Friday! This weeks theme is FuN iN tHe SuN ... well now that Spring has officially arrived in Minnesota I can actually post a few pictures I took of Jaden this ast weekend - On Mother's Day we headed to buy our pepper plants and flowers for our deck pots and while we planted Jaden played on her swing set and decided to wash her feet off in the sprinkler that was on to water the new grass seed ... well next thing I know I turned to look at her and she was SOAKED! She decided it was warm enough to get wet - well it wasn't too long after that idea that she said she was freezing and really had to PEE ... well I hope you all had a wonderful week and that your weekend is blessed and beautiful ... Our Baby#2 news is slowly sinking in and I admit I am a little more nervous this time around ... I am not sure why but I am hoping it goes away so I can get onto more happy thoughts (it seems like so long since I was the mom to a baby - did I forget how to 'do it'?) - such as baby fingers and toes, newborn cries and of course getting to see Jaden be a wonderful big sister ... oh and I am hoping that Jason eventually comes back down to earth - he is so giddy and full of excitement for Baby#2 ... I only hope he truly knows how much I love him and am very thankful for the family we have and will continue to have ... Have a wonderful weekend!

Love ~ The Clark Family ~ Rebekah, Jason, Jaden and Baby#2 TOO!

Look at those cute cheeks on Jaden. Can you believe you'll have another little one soon. I think I would feel the same as you do if I was expecting again. Madeline is 5 and it just seems so long ago she was a baby. Whats great about Jaden being older is that she is going to love helping I am sure. How fun that is for her too. Of course how awesome that your hubby is excited as well...

I am so happy to be a part of your blog and will love seeing your progress this year thorugh the pregnancy. Thanks for sharing your wonderful news!

I am so happy you northerns are getting some nice weather now!!!
Have a great weekend.

AAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW.... CONGRATULATIONS! What AMAZING news! I'm SO HAPPY for you!!!!!

Oh, I forgot - LOL! I LOVE the pics you shared of Jaden today. She's simply ADORABLE. (After seeing the pic of you all above, I think she DEFINITELY looks like her Daddy) I bet the next one looks like YOU! That's the way it worked here... our first looked like Link and the second looks like he was CLONED from me. Hehe..

HAVE A GREAT weekend! ;-)

She is such a cutie. Ithink you'll get more excited as time goes on at least that's what I hear. I don't have any experience in that field as I only have one but I am sure its like riding a bike. You never forget how to do it ..whether its a bike or a poopy diaper LOL

Thanks for visiting my blog! Love your little girls name as my baby's middle name is Jaden. I was saving it for a girl but God gave me 3 boys :) Also, I read that your friend's name is Jolene and that is my name. Spelled the same believe it or not. Wow... it really is a small world!! Congratulation's on baby #2!!! You already have a little helper right there with you.

Your blog is SO cute! I think you've updated since I last visited, but I'm glad you left the quote in the header. SO TRUE!

I also wanted to comment on your 5/7 post. I wouldn't fight it; let her wear capris. A dear friend and Mom of 4 kids older than mine wisely advised me early on to "pick my battles". Now that I also have four I understand that better. So many things I worried about became non-issues down the road.

If she's just really upset about it all summer, Nair is cheap and the smell is still so bad it might turn her off (smile)

You're a good momma for being concerned. Congrats on Baby#2!

I remember a little girl who would only wear shorts, even in the winter. She would wear shorts with her snow boots and parka, and she adapted to life just fine. She still wears shorts in the winter, mostly indoors - am I correct? She went from NY to MN and has a wonderful life, do you know who I am talking about? Love your face.
