Happy Birthday Carson!



I can't believe that 4 years have passed away already. It's hard to believe that 4 years ago today we were welcomed by little Carson. He has been such a joy to have in our family. He keeps the humor alive, and he is so smart. Carson, I just wanted to say that we love you so much and we're so glad you are a part of this family. We hope you have a wonderful birthday. Thanks for being such a good boy.
Mom and Dad


PICS OF THE PARTY: STAY POSTED!

Happy Father's Day!

I just wanted to jump on here and wish Dorian a Happy Father's Day.
We are so glad that you are a part of this family. You bring joy and happiness and a whole lot of love to our home. You are an amazing dad. The kid's look up to you so much, and I love watching them learn new things. They are so eager to learn everything they can from you. Thanks for being the best dad ever!!!

Dr visit UPDATE

Okay, so hopefully you've read the blog entry below before you read this one.
Today I went to work again, and Dorian went fishing. The boys were babysat by their FAVORITE BABYSITTER, Fancy Nancy. She took them to the parade that we had here in Rigby and then went to Rigby lake. I had just gotten home when she pulled up. We threw the kids in the bath because they were covered in sand. After I pulled them out to dry them off, I saw that Carson needed to blow his nose. I grabbed some tissue and had him blow. Then we did the other side. That side sounded a little full, which bummed me out, because I just got sick yesterday and I thought that he was now getting sick. I had him blow each side again. I looked at the tissue, and YEP! You guessed it! THE OTHER HALF OF THE ERASER!!! (from the other nostril I might add) Apparently the doctor didn't think it was necessary to look in the other side. I think it's all cleaned out OFFICIALLY now!
The penny is to show the size of the eraser.

A Doctor Visit

I worked this morning. Dorian drove up with the kids, and we made the swap. Dorian let me know that Carson said that he had put an eraser up his nose and that he couldn't blow it out. Dorian had said that he couldn't see anything and that it was probably nothing. "It would work itself out."
HA
I had a look up his nose, and I could see a bit of eraser, and I tried to get him to blow it out, but hardly any air would come out as he was trying. His eye was also watering quite a bit as he was trying to blow it out. I asked him if he put the whole eraser in his nose, and he said that he had bit off a piece and put it in because he was trying to get the paper out that he had stuck in there. We were at the mall (that's where we met) and the doctor's office was just around the corner, so I told Dorian I was going. He REALLY advised me not to.
We got to the doctor, paid the $20 co-pay (ERR) and sat down to wait. We were called back 5 minutes later and the doctor had a look at his nose. He pulled out all of the utensils and went to work. He pulled out 2 pieces of eraser and then saw more. He then had to dig deep and he pulled out a wad of paper. Pretty big I thought! Then there was one more piece of eraser.
ALL CLEANED OUT!!!!
When I got home I realized that I had the camera in my purse the whole time, and could've gotten a picture of the debris on the gauze!!! SORRY GUYS (i know you were just dying to see). I'm just glad that all is well. ($20 later)

SNOW FLURRIES!

It was 36 degrees while I was driving to work this morning, and was snowing up until this afternoon.

Call me crazy but if summer doesn't come soon, I'll be packing up my bags and moving somewhere warmer!!

GRANNY+PAPA=Books+Surprises

Lately when granny has visited us she has brought a book for everyday that she's here. Unfortunately she wasn't able to come this trip, but Papa did, and she didn't fail the kids one bit!!! They are actually a little bit spoiled.
Here are some pictures of the surprises and books that they got this trip around.

SURPRISES: Rocks from Melissa Terry. She picked these up in Cabo San Lucas. (The boys have a rock collection). The other surprise was from Papa. He found sticks and wood for the boys on the beach in Cabo. Carson and James were so excited to have them!



The other surprise was a fishing rod and reel and a net, with a bunch of fish. The rod and the fish are magnetic. They thought this was a great gift.



Here are the books that they got. They just love reading all of their new books! I think I need to add an extra shelves to closet to store more book! The kids now know their Granny as: "THE BOOK GRANNY!"



This is a video of them waiting for their books. Carson is a little sneak and had a little look in Papa suitcase downstairs and KNEW that there were more books to come. :o) He's too smart for his own good.

5.31.02

So basically I have the best friend anyone could ask for! Without me asking she read my last blog and scrounged up some pictures from when we were married.
So now I can say that this was an amazingly awesome day. It's the greatest thing to be sealed for time and all eternity to your best friend. Thanks Dorian for being there for me and the family. We love and appreciate you so much. Thank you for these past six years, and the kids and I are looking forward to many more years to come. WE LOVE YOU!!! (Especially me!)
Happy Anniversary!
