Dear diary,

We had a surprise! I'm pregnant again! I didn't expected to have another baby since I'm already forthy years old but it happend and we are thrilled. Baby #14 is on the way!

Ofcourse we wanted to tell all our childeren they where going to have another little brother or sister. We invited them all over for deserts and told them. (AN: ofcourse Jadyn and Jedidiah wheren't invited, because Jadyn left home without her parents knowing and Jedidiah had to leave because he has a relationship with a man)

They where all thrilled with another little brother or sister. They didn't expected me to become pregnant again but where all hoping it. My sweet childeren, I love them so much. I especially loved seeing Bobby with Joseph talking, father and eldest son, such a special relationship. Bobby had to wait a bit before he had a son. We first got two daughters.

Dear diary,

We finaly moved! So exciting! We are just moved in but I feels already like home and I love the space the new house has. But the most important thing is the second bathroom, one even has a bathtub.

From the top left to botum right: The kitchen with a new diningtable. The diningtable from the other side with in the back the livingroom. The girls and toddlerroom. The hallway upstairs (not pitured: Bobby's woodworkingtable). The masterbedroom with the crib. The boysroom (for now with just Joseph but James will soon join him).

The first birthday in the new house. Joseph was really excited. He is a teenager now but such a sweet one(AN: he is much like his nametwin from the duggars). And he was already fixing the sink when Bobby came home. I love an extra man in the house who fixes things.

Dear diary,

My daugther Julie is a married woman. I'm so happy for her but I'm missing her very much around the house. (AN: the cleaning and cooking she did). The wedding was a wonderful ceremony. Julie picked Jenelle and Jocelyne to be her flower girls, so sweet.

The love between Julie and Omar was so precious to see when they said their vows to eachother. I just love that part of any wedding, especialy those of my daughters.

We also celebrated thanksgiving. We had a few of the older childeren with their spouses over and it was a blast having the house filled with childeren and love.

I made diner for the whole bunch and then everybody sat down at the table to enjoy some sweet fellowship. Jenelle was so sweet to clean up afterwards and do the dishes.

Love, Evy

Dear diary,

I'm married to a man who is in his 30's. So weird! I remember the day we got married like it was yesterday. He is the best husband ever and I can't believe that he choose me to be his wife. We are married for 4 years now and they are the best years of my life.

I bought Bobby a set of books and a ladder to set them on. He was delighted with the new books. He loves to read commentary's of the bible when the childeren are a sleep (AN:not that he helps put them in bed, that's all on Evy)

And we had to do some celebrating for Janine recently. She is a big girl now like Johanna. They are the perfect two girls a mother can wish for.

Janine and Johanna have bunkbeds now and they absolutly adore them. My childeren all share a room together and especially Johanna is such a great help with her younger siblings. Recently Joseph had a bad dream and woke up in the middle of the night. Johanna gave him a hug and then they both got back in bed. So sweet. (AN:Yes, the sistermomming has begon)

Dear diary,

We had Janine's wedding and it was wonderfull. When her big sister Johanna got married we didn't have at much money to spend as we have now. We did Johanna's wedding in our yard but Janine got married at a beautifull church.

The photo's of the big day are already back. Only the ones with Johanna where not good. (AN: She showed up in white, I couldn't have her in the photo's) Juanna and Jadyn where bridesmaids and did a wonderfull job. They where so cute togheter in their dresses.

The familyphoto was a bit hard to make because of the number of people in it. But look at that face of Jadyn, the little cutie! (AN: Just wait to find out what I have in store for little Jadyn, Evy might not think she is so cute by then)

Janine and Chris saved their first kiss, just like Johanna, for their wedding day, it was so special to watch.

And Janine's dress was so beautifull. Totally Janine. They will have beautifull childeren some day soon.

Dear diary,

My sixth baby already arrived! And she is precious. A cute little baby girl named Jadyn Honor. She came while I was potty training James, I always try to have a small number of kids in diapers at the same time. But James and Jadyn will both be in diapers for now. Jadyn's name means 'God has heard' and we feel so like she is an answer to our prayers.

The girls where thrilled to have another little sister but the boys wanted a little brother and where a bit disapointed. But we told them that if they pray, I might get pregnant again and they might get their little brother. Bobby is praying with them.

Johanna came over to meet her little sister. She was so sad that she will not be there to see her grow up. But ofcourse she will be visiting all the time, even when we moved. Yes, we are moving! We made the decison to buy the house we checked out. The two bathrooms sold it for me. The move will be soon and we are all so excited!

Dear diary,

I just can't stop gushing about my youngest daughter, Juanna. She is the sweatest. This morning she came sitting in her pyjama's next to me while she waited for the bathroom to come free. We are all excited about the new baby coming soon and Juanna is the most excited of us all. James is still not sure what will happen.

Bobby and I have been talking a lot about the bathroom. We want a bigger house and are not sure to make a decision yet. We can add on to this house but we can also buy a new house. The downside of a new house is that we will be moving away from Johanna. She lives nearby. But with baby #6 around the corner we have to do something. So we went looking at a house that's for sale.

This house has two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs. It has two bathrooms, which is a big plus for us. It has a garden at the back with a fence so I can leave the little ones outside without being scared they will walk away. Upstairs is also a big hallway with plenty of room for Bobby's desk and woodworkingtable. We are still thinking about it but this would be a nice house for us.

Recently Bobby and Janine also went on a trip to a friend. He has a farm and Bobby would like for us to grow our own vegetables and fruits.

Chris Geller explained everything to them and Janine was really excited to start a garden at our house. We told her she has to wait until we made a decision about moving or not.

Dear diary,

I'm a mother of four! I gave birth to a healthy baby girl, our thrid daughter. We named her Juanna Faith Baker. God is gracious is the meaning of her name. And we feel so gracious to have her in our family. Bobby and I feel so blessed to have four childeren.

Our three older childeren where very eager to see their little sister. Johanna was thrilled to have another little sister but Janine was a bit disappointed. I'm not sure why. Joseph didn't like it too, he wanted a little brother. I ensured them that having Juanna as their little sister is a blessing and we all should be very thankfull to have her in our family. Then they got to play and where content with all they have.

Johanna was hard to keep away from the crib and I don't mind that one bit. She is such a great helper.
