Porter swallowed a what?

So now the waiting game begins... when will it make its way thru his system and into the toilet... it will right?

Afternoon snack & a walk to the park

After we fought over every last bite of steamed asparagus with garlic salt, we headed the hills for the mile walk to the park where we enjoyed the beautiful weather and the fun park equipment. What a fun day spent with my wonderful kids!






Kaymie loved the stroller ride can you tell?

Love winter?

a trip to the ER, 2 Dr visits, a few boxes of kleenex, several dozen squirts of hand sanitizer, lots of doses of tylenol, motrin, antibiotic, breathing meds, albeterol, millions of uses with the bulb syringe, and very little sleep= Kaymie and Porter with RSV! and an ear infection to top it off with our little princess. Poor little kids, they are so sick.
Thank heavens they are on the better end of it. I have found myself singing in the middle of the sleepless nights a few songs like I Need Thee Every Hour, Count Your Many Blessings, A Child's Prayer and am ever so grateful that my little ones are still breathing and finally smiling!

Kaymie turns 4 months

Our princess is rolling all over the place
loving peek a boo
trying to sit up
holding toys
laughing the cutest little laugh
and continuing to melt our hearts!

Oh how these boys adore their sister!

Seth showing off the teeth his has lost! Cute toothless grin!

Our beautifully wonderful kids

For family home evening we learned about unity and working together as a family. The boys made this pyramid as part of the activity.

Smiley happy Kaymie girl

Catch Up

It's been a while since I posted... here's a little of what we've been up to
*today is snow day and school was cancelled! Which meant snowmen, heart brownies, playdough fest,watching tv, and just hanging out together with the kids
*we went to the valley last weekend and enjoyed spending time with the cousins, seeing baby Jace for the first time, trying on dresses for our valentine's day prom, watching Megan's softball game (in the which she was an awesome little pitcher), and going to a friend's wedding reception
*Seth has been playing basketball and loving every second of it! He has quite the shot and is such a natural athlete. He also has been visited by the tooth fairy a few times recently after loosing some teeth.
*Porter has surprised us all at his smartness in kindergarten. He has such a clever little brain and it's been fun to seem him use it.
*Jarom gave us a scare the other day when he passed out after hitting his head on the kitchen floor--- luckily he is just fine! That was the day after his ear drum burst poor little guy.
*Kaymie is such a fun little delight in our house! She is laughing now and we are all just eating it up!
*Jeff is still busy with his 2 jobs, and we are very happy to say he is done with studying for his licenses! He passed his last test today- yippeee!
*As for me... keeping up with all of them keeps me rather busy. I do make sure I get my much needed workout in everyday. I still enjoy couponing and finding good deals.
Picutes will come later (Jeff took the camera, but I jsut had to post as cross it off my list of things to do!)
