The Cleaner

My baby boy loves to clean. If you give him a wipe he immediately starts wiping down the couch, floor, window, fridge...anything that is close. He also loves the broom. If I leave the laundry room open long enough for him to squirm his way in he grabs the broom and starts carrying it around the house until I can get him sidetracked to take away. If I try to take it away before that he freaks out. He loves to clean! Hope he keeps it up...I need a kid to help me clean all these messes!

Sickies

Jett had a fever which turned into a rash all over his body. I thought he was having an allergic reaction since we just recently changed from Pampers to Huggies. A few days later Ella got a fever which also turned into a rash. We took the kids to the doctor and was told they had Hand Foot and Mouth Disease. The doctor said that he had seen this same thing with at least 8 other kids that week. Yikes. Kaiya soon after got a fever but didn't break out. Kids 10 and older and adults are usually immune from this disease. Now that Ella is in preschool seems like we have seen a lot more sicknesses these past few months.

Someone Turned 30!

Happy 30th Birthday Nate! Stop getting so old!

Love

Eating snacks together

Straws out of the same cup

Taking naps

Jett will sure miss Kaiya when she goes back to school

Toy Story On Ice - Daddy Daughter Date

Wow. I have been so busy that I have had no time to update my blog! I am more than a month behind. Yikes!! Gotta start somewhere, I guess!
Cirdan took Ella to Toy Story on Ice in November. It was a perfect daddy/daughter date and they had a blast! Ella's favorite part was Jessi, Buzz and Bullseye and their skating. She also liked the barbies. They sat only 2 rows from the ice...while it made things a bit chilly they had the perfect seats!

This was my very first barbie I had....leg warmers and all!

Here are a few More

Pictures of the Kids - Oh How I Missed This

We took the kids to get Santa pictures yesterday and before they changed out of their nice clothes I wanted to take some pictures of them. I forgot how much I love taking pictures. When we move I will miss this perfect backdrop that we have in our backyard. I am already looking forward to taking more pictures and will be looking for someone/anyone who will let me take some of them. :) Jett wasn't really cooperating but I did manage to get a couple good ones with him and the girls.
