So I have not posted in forever, but hey I only have a few pictures of the last month and a half. We have been sick I swear a good portion of the time and lets just face it, I am just trying to get through all the colds that get passed through. We have gone to Utah for a week and while we were there I went to CA for the weekend with Gwyn. We went to my sister's wedding reception. Things were so busy that I didn't even whip out my camera to get any pictures (pathetic I know). The day before we left for Utah I took Gwyn to the doctor because she was so sick and found out that she had RSV. Which is a respiratory virus that kids can be hospitalized for. She was given a breathing treatment in the doctors office and we were prescribed an inhaler and steroid for her. They gave us the ok to proceed with our trip though. She was a trooper, but gave me many sleepless nights on our trip. While we were there we took her in and found out that she also now had an ear infection. So I swear we were giving that poor baby medication left and right. She is well on the mend now and is doing much better all the way around. While we were gone we also had the stomach flu passed around our family. Bristol actually got it right before we left, Kali got it four days later, and then Nate got it the day we were flying home. I luckily was able to skate by this time (I already have had the stomach flu three times this winter I think I have paid my dues). Needless to say I was happy to be home and to sleep in my own bed. Now it is just a matter of trying to get unpacked and clothes washed and put away while my kids destroy it at the same time. One day I will have a clean house again!
So these pictures are from New Years Eve. It was unseasonably warm then which made it fun to do some sparklers outside. We had our friends over and stuffed ourselves with yummy goodies and treats.
The girls love hanging out with their dad. They love to be able to play with him and tell me repeatedly how they wish Daddy were home. (Me too girls, me too)
Gwyn has given us some major difficulties with eating her baby food and it feels like we progress some and then go back to square one. I don't know what I am going to do with this girl. I guess she is just waiting until she has enough teeth she can eat normal food.
Pathetically enough these are the only pictures I have of our trip to Utah. The night before we left we got together with Nate's friends from high school. It was a fun time by all. Kali slept the whole time on the couch with all the craziness around her. She woke up for about 30 minutes to decorate a cookie before we left and then fell asleep in the car on the way home. She was one tired kid.
This picture is actually from today. I made the girl's skirts for Valentine's Day. I will have to take a picture of all of them together.
Hopefully I will be better at taking some pictures of our activities this month. I will try to make it my goal to post more. Sorry for those of you out there that may be following along.
