Our first new family photo

Being a mother to 5 wonderful children brings more joy and happiness into my life than I could have ever imagined.  They mean the world to me and I love them with every fiber of my being!  The sweet moments spent with them daily, seeing them grow, and socking in all their fun personalities makes me glad that I am a stay at home mom.  Thank you honey for working so hard and taking on the daily stress of your job so that I can live/love/cherish our children!

I love my eternal family!
Happy Mother's Day

Welcome to our Family, Baby Hazen

Today is the day!  One last family photo before Hazen enters the world.  Scott and I are off, taking the kids to school and then leaving for the hospital for the exciting event!  I cant wait!  I am beaming with joy!

After Christmas 2010, the kids and I made a chain out of construction paper to help us count down the days of Hazen's arrival.  We placed stars on important events that had led up to this day.  It was a big help for the kids to wake up to and then see one by one we are one day closer to seeing Hazen. No more stars.......I am going to see my baby today!!!!

I couldn't be HAPPIER!  Scott and I have been trying to have a baby for a year and a half.  And this day is finally here!  I am estatic....Life couldn't get any better than this. 

Hazen Taylor Campbell;  Born at 1:16pm on May 5th, 2011// 9lbs 15 oz;  21 inches long  

Sarah is a very proud big sister. Being in the hospital was hard on Sarah.  She didn't want to be away from her mom.

McKenzie, this is what you looked like when you were born.  McKenzie said, " I am never washing my hands again.....they smell like Hazen!"  McKenzie is such a sweet and loving, caring sister.  She will be a great mother someday.  She is already a little mother to Porter.

Porter is excited to have a little brother.  Always wanting to hold him and kiss him.  Porter is such a lover.

Lydia loves holding Hazen and she is concerned about how I am doing.  Always rubbing my back and arms, making me feel loved!  My Lydi-bug.....so sweet!

In just 6 weeks Aunt Whitney will be holding her baby; Easton Becker Lichty!  I cant wait.  I will be an AUNT!

Gammie said," I just cant get over how much Hazen looks like McKenzie."  "Every time I look at him I think he is a girl."  What can I say,  I make pretty babies. :)

Isn't this photo adorable!  Three big sisters doting over their brother. 
Through the faith of these three girls, our family was blessed with baby Hazen. Every day for a year and a half, McKenzie, Lydia and Sarah prayed and prayed for a baby.  Holding strong and having a firm belief that our Heavenly Father would bless us.....Here we are......we have Hazen!

End of the year FUN

Mrs. Kurst, McKenzie's music teacher invited all the Lakewood students to participate in the "Music in Schools"s concert at Tokay High.   Schools in the Lodi School District were involved.  McKenzie loves to sing and we are so proud of her.

Lakewood Talent Show

This is McKenzie's second year being involved in the Lakewood Talent Show.  Last year she sung with a friend, "My favorite things" (from the Sound of Music) in front of the whole school.  I do have to say thanks to Aunt Whitney and Uncle Ben for starting the Yearly Christmas Talent Show, McKenzie has tons of confidence in herself and her ability to do anything she sets her mind to.  McKenzie you ROCK!
