Proud Big Brother


There is not a prouder big brother out there! Is there such a thing as to much Love?  The answer is "NO WAY."

Keeping her Busy


Lydia is sure keeping the Tooth Fairy busy these days.

Sisterly Love



One thing that is great about living in a small duplex is the close relationship you build with your family.  Saying that, I had the wonderful opportunity to hear loud laughter coming from the girls bedroom on this summer afternoon.  Scott and I hope that our children will stay close and remember all the good times that they had together growing up.

I love your......








I love your......loud squeaks and grunts ( loves to talk to his mommy)
                        smiles
                        different facial expressions
                        constant grin on your face
                        sweet disposition
                        when you instantly stop crying when I pick you up
                        dimples
                         new baby smell
                         kissable/chubby checks
                         love when you ball up on my chest
                         love that Heavenly Father sent you down to me
                         grip my fingers
                         cute toes
                         blue, blue eyes
                         your baby soft hair
                         when I am holding you and you burst out in laughter while asleep
                         amazing sense of smell (knowing its me just by the way I smell)
                         ravenous appetite
                         need to be held all the time
                         my baby boy

I love that each minute of every day there are more things to LOVE about you.

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!
