Our Terrific Thursday....Will's 1st Birthday!!!

Today is Will's 1st birthday. I cannot believe it has already been a year. This morning Kylee and my mom made waffles for everyone, they were delicious. After breakfast, my mom and Kylee played "Geyer Spa"....my mom painted Kylee's nails and toes and then had my dad fan Kylee while she ate grapes and waited for the polish to dry...Kylee loved it. After that my mom and I took all the kids on a walk, Kylee rode her bike...she is so happy that my dad got her one to ride for when she visits. While we were on the walk my dad was working on the landscaping in the backyard, so when we got back all the kids could not wait to play in the dirt.

One of Kylee's favorite things to do out here is ride my dads lawn mower. So, I took her on a ride. When Ava saw us she jumped on, and then Will jumped on too. We let Will "drive" and he loved it (I have a video but it is not letting me upload it now, so I will try again later)

My sister and Ava had to go back up to Colorado Springs, because Danielle had some work stuff to do the next couple of days. My mom and I went out shopping to a couple different stores, while my dad watched Will and Kylee. We were gone for almost 3 hours, but the kids were really good, and when we came home they were out front playing. So my mom and I stayed outside with the kids and played for a while longer.

While my mom and I were out we got a little cake for Will to have for his bday. After dinner we gave him the cake and he went crazy!!!

Wonderful Wednesday

So, today Will only threw up once today..yay!!! Today my Opa came down to see us, and the kids had so much fun playing outside with him. We also helped my dad pull weeds, and move some rocks. Kylee and Ava helped my dad mow the grass, and he took them on a ride on the lawn mower....they loved it. Oh, this is super funny, my parents bought Kylee a new comforter set and it came with sleeping face mask thing, and Kylee has been wearing it to bed.

Throwing Up Tuesday

This morning me and kids left to go to Colorado. Our flight was bright and early at 6 in the morning, Vanessa my neighbor was nice enough to drive us there. Right before we went through the security check Will threw up all over himself and me. So, we cleaned up and we went through the check point. And of course I didn't bring the right bag with his extra outfit, so I bought a child small shirt from the souviner stand. We loaded up on the airplane, on our flight to Houston. I thought Will was feeling better but he was not, he ended up throwing up 2 more times. We left that flight with Will wearing only sweat pants. We had a short layover, and we boarded our flight to Denver. Will slept most of the way, and Kylee watched High School Musical and Hannah Montana on the TV on the plane....she was super excited. When we were about 15 miles to touchdown Will started throwing up again...all over me, all over everything. We left that flight in a diaper. My brother-in-law picked us up from the airport and we drove to my sisters house . The kids were so excited to see each other.

Ava and Kylee

The kids played for a while and then came in to eat. About 20 minutes after Will ate he threw up again. So, I called the doctor to see if I could get a referral or something. Then we layed down for a nap. The doctor called back and said he wanted us to go to the emergency room, he was worried that Will would get dehydrated since he had thrown up so many times. So, my sister and I took Will to the ER. After we checked in, we went to sit down and Will threw up again. They took us back and we sat and waited. Fast forward a couple hours....the docs don't know what is wrong with Will, they gave me some anti-nausasea medicine for him.

After coming home from the ER, we stop by my sisters house and picked up the kids then we headed to my most favorite place to eat ever, Silver Pond. We picked up food and headed down to my mom and dads house.

Will has been so tired all day, so he is sleeping. My sister, dad and I are lounging around. And my mom is playing with Ava and Kylee. Everyone is having so much fun!!! YAY!!! I love my family and have missed them! XOXO

Just Another Manic Monday...

So Kylee had her friend, Sasha, spend the night last night. I wake up this morning and heard water running, after a couple minutes it didn't stop, I went to figure out what it was. It was Kylee and Sasha in my kitchen at 6:30 am. They decided they wanted to wash dishes, and they used a whole bottle of dawn dish soap.....hopefully in a couple years she will still want to help.

The girls "washing" the dishes

After I cleaned up the mess in the kitchen, I made breakfast for the girls. I also made 2 dinners, desserts and breakfast muffins for our friends, Adam and Danielle, who just had a baby on Saturday. After a morning of cooking and baking, the kids, including Sasha, and I loaded up to drop off the food and then we headed over to Jump Indoors to meet some friends.

But soon he was crawling and walking all over the place

After the jump place, we went and registered Kylee for kindergarten. Then we headed home, and the girls took a well needed nap. The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. But now I sit in the middle of clothes everywhere, I should be packing, but this is the part I hate most of all when going on trips. Its 11:42 pm, I am leaving for the airport at 5 am, I think its time to go pack....love you XOXO

Our Shopping Sunday

Today my neighbor and I loaded all the kids up and headed to the mall, they had some great deals so we started back to school shopping. It was super fun....me, Vanessa, and all 5 five....

After we got home from shopping, a bunch of neighborhood kids, like 9 or 10, came over to the house and played. Will fell asleep early because he had such a busy day. Sasha is sleeping over tonight, and her and Kylee wanted to sleep in the living room and just had to have a tent.

After dinner the kids jumped on the trampoline

Will actually jumped!! He loves the trampoline

He likes to lay down and relax while the other kids jump

Our friends, Danielle and Adam, also had their baby today. So Vanessa, our neighbor, watched the kids for a little while so I could stop by the hospital and see Cadence. She is too cute!!!

It was another busy day for us. I don't think we have anything planned for Sunday, but we shall see I am sure we will find something to get in to :)

Love you Curt!!
