A FEW HAPPENINGS

We went down to Logan for a scrapbooking over nighter and on our way home sunday, I was putting my shiny pink lip gloss on and Madi insisted that she needed some. So I reach back and hand it to her, not being able to assist putting it on her, and look back as she says all done. She has pink shiny lip gloss ALL OVER her pretty lips! Can't see it very good but very "pretty".
Last night, Bill and Riley went to help a family move in Jerome so Madi and I had dinner ourselves. We decided it was to late to make anything and ran to Papa K's and got ourselves a sub. She is out Cold and the video I want to post will verify how tired she really was! HAHA, it was very cute. (To my family: Notice how her sub is opened and the inside is picked out and eaten! hmmm???)

Riley saw a kid in Toys R Us and his hair was in a cute little mohawk, and he has asked me to "make his hair like the little boys hair in the toy store". We are still trying to figure out how to style it! Any ideas or suggestions would be great!

You know your tables clean when your kid tries to clean up his bread crumbs by licking them off!

She is so alert now and can carry on a very long conversation. That's another video I want to post!


There are a few Videos that I have to post! But still trying to figure it out, eventually sometime today I'll have them on here.

Try back a little later for the videos!

4 MONTHS LATER!!!! YEA!!

THIS IS WHERE WE HAVE BEEN EATING AT FOR THE LAST 4 MONTHS.

NOW THIS IS WHERE WE GET TO EAT!


This picture doesn't do it justice...... We had decided we out grew our very small small old table. We sold it at a garage sell in september. I found a table I LOVED in the Pottery Barn Book.....and not to my surprise, Bill wasn't willing for us to pay an arm and a leg for that specific table. So we copied it! :) Shhhh, don't tell. Bill started on it in November, and it is now sitting in my dining area as of 9:30 tonight. I do have to brag about him and his work! It is beautiful. It's made of black walnut from his uncles old tree and has a leaf to extend it to 8 ft. Oh, I can't forget to tell you, he spun the legs on the old lathe machine in his father's shop. I guess this means my excuse for not having enough room for people to come over and eat is no more. Thanks hon...love ya!

Big Guns!!!

Bill thought I was posting about his muscles!! :) He took us to the shooting range on the old gooding highway. He just bought a 30-6 rifle and wanted to go try it out. We had fun trying it out but couldn't believe the kick it had and how loud it was... He didn't have any ear plugs so I made him put it up so he didn't go deaf. I shot the 22 I think, and Riley joined in with his cap gun. :) He made fun of me because I have to rest my arm on my hip so I can stay steady. Oh well.

OH THE JOYS!

This is a first in our household!



My 4 yr old, 2 yr old and my 4 month old napping all at the same time! I must say this was very much needed. Mommy got to have some "me" time! Actually, I napped right along with them.
(the pictures say 2/2, but it was actually 3/2. weird)

SICK SICK AND MORE SICK

Well, we took Madisen to the doctor yesterday because we think she has sleep apnea (no fun). The first step they take in correcting this in children is removing the tonsils and adnoids because they can be very large and obstruct the airway. Well Madi and Riley had both their tonsils and adnoids removed due to snoring in June of last year...YUCK! Two at the same time, but I figured let's just get it over with. Well it is possible for adnoids to grow back. The doctor checked her out and asked me a whole bunch of different questions...one of which was "Is daddy over weight" I literaly laughed because all of us that know Bill know that he is definately not overwieght...if anything underweight (Sorry hon, love ya, muah!) Okay, not underweight, just skinny ??Is that any better??? Anyway, he started examining and looked up her nose and then down her throat. He didn't see anything other then a "cobblestone" throat. Which could indicate a post nasal drip, which means inflamed mucus membranes. Anyhow, he is not sure if that is what is causing the snoring and the gasping for air but he wants to start lower on the recter scale then jumping and sending her to an ear nose and throat doctor for a sleep study if it could be her mucus membranes. She is on a steriod nasal spray, (which we don't like) for 4-6 wks, and if that doesn't change anything, off for a sleep study. Well today, Madi woke up and came and told me she was hot. Took her temp and she is at 100. and has a sore throat. Now I'm thinking that the "cobblestone" throat the doctor saw is the result of her getting sick. We had a doctor that would jump on treating the worst case possible and switched, and now our new doctor starts with the least severe thing....WHICH IS BETTER? Bill has also been sick, so I hope Riley and I can keep our distance along with lily bug.

Elders Quorum Ski Trip

Okay, so all of you that don't know Bill has been the Elders quorum president for 1 1/2 years. Well, growing up, I always attended our ward ski trip for many years and Bill said they never did that in Wendell. (Despite having Sun Valley and Pomerelle ski mountains close by.) Anyway I talked him into scheduling one this year. It was scheduled for February 15 at Pomerelle. At the same time, the Wendell Girls High School team was playing their tourney's and ended up placing first and was headed to state in Boise. Well state playoffs were the weekend scheduled for the ski trip. To make a long story just a little bit shorter.....we moved the ski trip to the following weekend February 23. Everyone was ecstatic when they heard about the trip and some were disappointed that it wasn't a ward party. Well of course Bill made me in charge of food and drinks and we made our way to Declo and up to Pomerelle. The party was awesome....the snowboarding not so much. It has been very warm and without snow and so the mountain was just rock hard. You'd wreck..(yes, I will admit that I did wreck) and bust a bone because it was that hard....anyway, I'll post a picture a little later of all that attended. You will be amazed.


That's right!!! The Party consisted of Bill and I...(and my bro-inlaw Sherm)
