Easter Bunny

Jackson hung a carrot on the front door to make sure the Easter Bunny knew kids lived in our house.

He was excited about the bunny's visit. He also had lots of questions about him.

Everyday Life Week 12

March 20 -26

Wednesday
C had to get a new IV and it wasn't fun! 

Thursday
C after tubes. He wanted to eat and of course watch a movie.

Friday
It took a while for these two to start playing together again. M wasn't happy with us for a while.

Saturday
C likes self portraits.

Sunday
J started playing his guitar again. He was sitting on the kitchen counter so M and C could not reach him. 

Monday
 Carter has been wearing this hat for several days. Who knows why!

Tuesday
J at soccer practice. He's loving it!

Hospital Stay

We can thank a nasty ear infection for C's 4 day 3 night stay at the hospital. After 6 doses of strong IV antibiotics he went to the OR for tubes (which took about 14 minutes). He was feisty when I got back to him after the procedure. He was mad at the world and of course the nurses. And for the future - please do not wear all white around C. He WILL scream and yell 'all done' (which was his favorite phrase to say in the hospital).

It didn't take him long to find every button on the bed and press each one. 

He was happy when the IV was unhooked and he could walk around.

Just walking the empty halls.

He loved drinking sprite out of a big boy cup.

Finally eating something...a banana.

First thing he wanted when we got home - food!  

Everyday Life Week 11

Jackson all tucked into bed.

Friday
J had to be seen by the doctor as well. Waiting for C's second shot.

The third and final shot. We have lived at the doctor's office!

Sunday
No church for the sick little boy. We baked cupcakes and the boys loved them!

Monday
C back to doctor and he was admitted to the hospital! 

Tuesday
J's first soccer practice with Boom. J had a blast! C is still in the hospital. 

Everyday Life Week 10

March 6 - 12

Wednesday
The boys played great today. Michael and I both had a touch of  a bug so we  were feeling yucky.  I'm not sure why M has a sock on his hand. 

Thursday
This is how we do snack time in the afternoons. C likes to sit on the table instead of his high chair. 

Friday
The boys had fun with bubbles at my parents house. 

Saturday
M still says apple and points to my phone every time I take a picture of him. 

Sunday
We skipped church again since C hasn't been feeling well.  We took the boys by the park on the way to get dinner. They had a blast and didn't want to leave.

Monday
M and C's 2 week recheck. C is now on his 4th medicine for his ear infection.  We are praying this medicine does the trick. If not he might have to get tubes. 

Tuesday
 This is what I find when I check on the boys. They like to climb on the back of the couch when I walk out of the room. 

Everyday Life Week 9

February 27-March 5

Wednesday
C is confused about what goes in the basketball goal. 

Thursday
My K cups came in the mail! This should last me a little while. 

Friday
C still isn't feeling great. He likes to play with the robots or bots as he calls them. 

Saturday
Fussy C back at doctor. This makes the third type of medicine since his ears are still red. 

Sunday
Think they wanted their milk? It was close to bedtime.
We didn't go to church at all today because of all the sickness going around. We want our boys well!!

Monday
J wanted to sit at the big table for supper at my mom's house. He thought he was something!

Tuesday
This week is Dr. Seuss week at school.  Today was Cat in the Hat  day. J was too cute in his hat and bow tie (which belonged to his great grandfather)!
