Afternoon at the ENT

 Because of the chronic ear infections of all three kids, we are often at the ENT.  He was just checking to make sure all tubes were intact and in good working order...which they were.  But it's not always fun times for the kids.  There is fighting and sometimes naughtiness...I know shocker!  FUN FUN TIMES FOR MOM!

Lilah's eye surgery

 On January 13, Lilah had surgery on both her eyes.  She has had major lazy eye since last summer.  Patching and glasses weren't enough to correct it.  This is her in the waiting room at Primary Children's Hospital just before.  The recovery was a little more difficult than tubes or adnoids, but she did great.  Her eyes look so much better.  She is supposed to now wear glasses until she's about 12 years old.  I say supposed because it's VERY HARD to keep them on her!  She is getting better as she gets a little older...and she's already grown out of her first pair and is on to her second!

Friends over for fun...

Reece's surgery

 Just days before the new year (before our deductable expired), Reece had her second set of tubes put in her ears...and her adnoids out.

She was not interested in wearing this cap...so she just refused and the nurses didn't push the issue.

Here she goes....all went well.  She was a champ!

Our 2012 so far.....

Just wanted to catch up with some of the things we've been up to so far...well, at least the kids!

Lilah and her peanut butter mess...

Football

I just want to say, 

I am so glad that the pro football season is coming to an end!  

Big Problem

This morning when the teacher was getting Reece & Sam out of the car, 
Sam tells her, 
"Mrs. Rawley, I have a big problem...,"  
Mrs. Rawley, "Whats that Sam?"
Sam, "I am going to have to hop on one foot all day today."
We both look down at Sam's feet and he only has one shoe on!
Mrs. Rawley just laughs and tells him that its okay, she'll carry him in today.  Of course I ran right home and brought his other shoe...., but do ya think you could help your mother out and let me know before we leave the house????  I was a little embarrassed, and a lot amused.  
I just love our little sunshine!!!

Halloween Night

 While Shawn and the older kids went tricker-treating, his little lady bug helped Mom hand out candy, and she LOVED IT!  She would peek through the glass giggling as I went to open the door to tricker-treaters.  She would tell everyone "HI, HI" and wave and blow them kisses as they left.  

She also ate this entire licorice rope!

Little Stinker

One word: NAUGHTY!
