Big, Little Man

Here is Logan.  He has grown up soo much lately.  He kicked his binky habit and can now pee and poop on the potty!   Thank goodness!  Some days I am a little sad that he is getting so big, but really he will always be my "little man."

Brothers

Keeping Watch

Sadly both of our fish died this week.  Sydney kept vigil by their bowl most of the day.  We could tell that something wasn't right and knew they probably wouldn't make it much longer.  Sydney was really sad to learn that we weren't going to take them to the vet.  We did promise to get a new fish soon if they both died. 

We flushed them after they died and I thought there might be some tears, but nope!  They just waved as they swirled down the potty.  At least it wasn't too traumatic.

Keeping Cool

Well, Louisiana is HOT!!!  I am sure everyone already knew this but I just needed to remind you.  So, we got a little pool to try and beat the heat.  The kids have been enjoying ti and pretty soon it will be the only tolerable thing to do outdoors because I can tell it will be too hot to run around outside for long with out a way to cool off.  Here are my beautiful kids enjoying the pool.

Every So Often

Every once in a while they all disappear and I find them playing together...nicely.  This is certainly not the norm so I had to capture it on film. 

I love it when they do that!

Getting Big!

My sweet girl had Kindergarten registration the other day.  I can't believe that in just a few months she will start school!  She was sooo excited and a little disappointed that she wouldn't be going to school right away.  She doesn't want to wait until the fall. 

 Here she is with her name tag on after registration.  So big.  Man, time flies!

Trouble!!!

My little Noah is trouble lately!  He seems to be into everything.  I came into the kitchen the other day and found him eating butter.  Great! 

That made for one greasy floor.

 He is also really into these dress up high heel shoes Sydney got for her birthday.  Whenever the children play dress up he grabs these and keeps them on for hours!  Too funny.

Breathing Easy

Noah's breathing has seemed to improve some over the past few weeks.  He is now on a breathing treatment twice a day for asthma prevention.  The allergist has finally officially diagnosed his with asthma.  We have also learned that he is allergic to beef and pork in addition to the nuts, eggs, cats, dogs, and numerous molds.  On the bright side he is only mildly allergic to the beef and pork and he is no longer allergic to milk so he can have dairy food again and drink the much cheaper cow's milk instead of rice milk! :)

Here is our little trooper getting one of his treatments.  He is normally pretty well behaved for them and will sit still until they are over.  Sometimes we use a mask for them and he will generally hold it up over his nose and mouth all by himself.  It is a little sad that he has had to learn this so early.  Hopefully he will outgrow it soon!

30 Years OLD!!!!!!

It's official...I'm old!

 I turned 30 on April 25th.  I wasn't too excited about it but the kids and Heath managed to make the day fun and I almost forgot how old I was.  Heath made me one of my favorites...a chocolate sheet cake.   We also had this seriously yummy banana pudding ice cream that everyone should try.  I try not to post pictures of myself too much but here is one of me blowing out my candles. 

I have had a great first 30 years and am excited to see what my next 30 years have in store for me.

Easter 2011

The Easter Bunny made a stop at our house this year for Easter.  Too bad this is the only picture of the whole day that I got.  They loved it though and had lots of fun eating candy before going to church!  The individual bags of cheetos were probably the favorite!
