Back to being CRAZY!!!!

Well things around here can not settle down. First off when Tyler had that glass removed 4 weeks ago. They left a very large chunk of it in his foot. They had to cut open the bottom part of his foot and remove it. He was on crutches again for a few days, and is now in a walking boot!!! That boy is having a hard time staying put together.
T.j. has started screaming constantly again. I don't know if it is because he is teething or if he has an ear infection, but we were just at the doctors office last week with him and i really don't want to take him back yet.
Creedance is suppose to be getting her cavities taken care of. But they won't put her under without the approval of her pediatrician, and with her heart troubles when she was little the pediatrician wants to make sure she is o.k.(which i am extremely glad for!!!!) So she had to have an echo cardio gram. We haven't got the results back yet but we are hoping they come back good.
Topher looks like somebody beat him up. While we were at my parents cabin last weekend, i sent him outside while i got the other kids ready. I usually don't let him go out alone but Tyler couldn't go out because of his foot and i was getting the other kids ready. Well he was fine at first i got Creedance ready and sent her out too. I had told topher to only slide on the little hill. And he is a really good listener. Well while i was pulling mine and t.j's snow clothes on i hear a blood curdling scream. I rush outside with no shoes on to see what's wrong. At first i just see toph crying, but on closer inspection his face on the left side is scratched. well when he was sledding down the little hill he went farther than he thought he would and went under my parents suburban. We are lucky he only scratched up half of his face, and didn't get hurt worse!!!

Other than that Thanksgiving was great. WE ate a Delicious dinner with Tyler's family. And then headed up to the cabin with my family afterwards. It was a lot of fun even though it was crazy.

We got a puppy!!!!

Last Saturday we were running around doing errands and while we were down in shelley we saw some puppies. Well Tyler has always said that we would never get a dog. And i told him one day i would just show up with one and he wouldn't have a choice. Guess which one of us ended up deciding to take one of the puppies home. TYLER!!!!! The kids were begging and he just gave in and picked the one he liked best. So now we have our little Star. I think she is adorable and the kids just love to play with her. The fight over who gets to feed her and i'm sure if it was warmer atleast topher would stay out all day to play with her. I've wanted a dog for our family for forever, but of course i never had to take care of a dog by myself before, my mom always did that so i'm sure it will be an eye opener eventually. Right now she never barks, she whines occasionally but doesn't make any noise through the night. Of course i already have to clean up her poop but it isn't any worse than doing a poopy diaper so i've been fine with it so far. We will see how a feel in a week or two but right now I love it!!!!!

Birthday Boy!

Topher turned five today!!!!! I can't believe he is so old. I didn't plan a big party ahead of time like a meant to, but it turned out pretty well anyway!!! Alot of family came and some friends too!!! We did presents and a pinata. Topher loved everything he got and can't fall asleep because he keeps thinking about all the things he gets to play with. He keeps coming out of his room to tell me the order that we will have to play with them in tommorow.

We sort of had a spider man theme this time. Every birthday i let the kids pick out a cake tin and then i bake and decorate them. We borrowed a spider man pan from my friend Liz and so theme began. We couldn't get normal birthday plates they had to be spiderman and the napkins and instead of hats they had face masks. Anyway, i hope everyone had fun.

The kids were pretty good today. We did gymnastics and then we went out to eat at Artic Circle. Some of Toph's friends were there and he was excited. I love my kids but they seem to be growing up way to fast. They are sure fun when they are big but i'm starting to miss that baby stage!!
