Toothless

Ali is officially toothless. Well, one tooth at least. It was only loose for 4 days before that sucker came out. I was joking to her how my dad used to go get the pliers and pull them out. She told me she wanted me to use the pliers. WHAT????? Are you crazy??? You WANT me to pull it out. I tried pulling it out using a kleenex but told her it wasn't ready yet and sent her off to bed. About 5 minutes later she came running in with her tooth. Then she said, "do you want to see the kleenex?" GROSS!!!! She was very determined.

You're gonna put that where??????

This is how Livy feels about getting her temperature checked!!!!!

How dare you!!!!!

Update!!!!

We are now ALL sick. Ryan & I both woke up with a bad cold a couple of days ago. I am at my worst today. Ali has missed 2 days of school and is going to miss a T-ball game tonight. Charlie has missed 2 days of school and a field trip. Livy and Oscar are still pretty sick. Livy is breathing better but still coughing tons and we are constantly sucking her nose out so she can breath. Oscar is still VERY leaky and gross but still so full of energy..... I can't keep up with all these sick kids. 

Hopefully we are on the down-stretch and will be getting better soon!

RSV anyone?????

This is how we are ALL feeling right now! 

I just got back from the doctor and was told that 3 out of my 4 children have RSV. Hooray!!!! Charlie and Oscar have a leak problem, I told Ryan we should just call a plumber. They are yucky, drippy, sleepy, cranky, whiny, and stuffy for the most part. It's Livy we are really concerned about. She is having problems breathing especially at night. Looks like we are homebound for a week or two. Wish me luck, I am soooo going to need it.

a birthday surprise

This is what I woke up to this morning; a little girl with an amazing imagination and an even bigger heart. First of all, this box belongs to Ryan's parents. I borrowed a humidifier from them for my sick babies. This was the only box she could find I guess.

This is what was inside; a picture and the instructions to the humidifier.

This is my card from Ali and Charlie  -  they are the BEST!!!! And yes, there are 27 candles on that cake. And that is confetti on the left, not rain.

This is what Ryan brought home last night for me. Sadly, he has work and school today so I'm not going to be seeing him much. We partied last night, it was great.

"Mom, I need help!"

This is a common phrase around our house so I didn't think too much of it when Charlie screamed it to me last night. However, this is what I found.

He was messin around instead of eating his dinner (we all finished 25 minutes ago). He put his feet through first, then his legs and so on and so on until he realized that his head wouldn't fit. What a little stinker. When I showed Ryan he loved the fact that I had to take a picture before I would help him. Of course I'm going to take a picture first, I also got the video camera. Mom of the year award is headed my way for sure.

Trying to do some "old time" pictures

This just seemed too cute not to take a picture of.

He had so much fun!

We took these pictures in our front yard.

Ryan, Ryan, how does your garden grow????

We went from this......

To THIS!!!!! in just 3 weeks!

This is Ryan's "BIG BOY." It's funny cause it really is the biggest one we have.

If you need tomatoes in about 4 months, you know where to come!

we also planted or plan to plant pees, lettuce, peppers, rosemary, carrots, strawberries, raspberries and a PEACH tree.
