Pearson's first ear infection!!!

So it wasn't just a cold. After three days of pearson screaming for hours i decided to take him to the doctor. So saturday morning i ran him over. The doctor was really suprised that a baby that young could have such a bad ear infection. The have him on antibiotics and he will have to go back in when it is gone to make sure everything is okay. I'm just so excited that i have my happy baby back!!!Yah!!!!!! He even slept in his crib last night!

Trying to be Thankful( I might need some help)

So this last week was not a very fun one!!! Pearson has his first official cold and he thinks that means some one needs to be holding him at all times, and i mean all times. He has to sleep all night with me. Some nights i am afraid that my arm might fall off!!!! To make things crazier Tyler has been working lots of extra hours this week, he has been out of town most days spent one night away and didn't come home until 1 o'clock last night!
We also had festival of trees on wednesday. I didn't even get a chance to take a picture of creedance in her costume because everything was just to crazy. We did survive and Tyler got to help his mom with Pearson who decided even if the milk was breastmilk he was not going to drink from a bottle. Good thing my mother-in-law is patient!!!!!!
Anyway hopefully Pearson will get better tyler will be home more and the kids can all be happy again. I think we really do need this Thanksgiving break and that is what i am going to be thankful for. Oh wait and i should be thankful for all of my family, even if things are crazy atleast they are mine!!!

Halloween and Topher's Birthday!

So we started our halloween off with attending Ammon Elementry schools halloween carnival. Me and Tyler didn't love it but i think the kids had a really good time, though Creedance and T.j. may never go into a spook alley again in their lives. I ended up having to leave early because Pearson decided he was starving and was a little suprised when everyone else made it home right after me. I guess someone pulled the fire alarm and that seemed to end the whole evening.

The kids loved trick-or-treating. We started of trunk-or-treating at the church, which they actually do inside the building and just let people decorate the doors. The kids then walk around the building getting their treats. Next we were off to grandma Hopkins house. Were of course the kids showed off their costumes. Tyler took the kids to a couple more houses before T.j. got tired and me and the little boys went to my parents while tyler walked the kids there while trick-or-treating. They all got way to much candy, but i think they can't wait to do it again next year!!!!!

On Sunday we had a party for Topher. We invited family over for cake and ice cream. This year Topher wanted a WAll * E cake. so i was up late saturday night icing the cake. Topher got wonderful presents and enjoyed having all of his cousins over.
I'm ready for my short break this morning and then i am sure things will go back to crazy as always.

Pearson is here!

O.k. i just wrote a really great blog and then managed to loose it while trying to add pictures of the kids! So atleast i updated even if i can't come up with all the info that i put in before. There may just be a whole lot of pictures without a whole lot of info, but atleast you will be able to see what we have been up to even if you don't get to hear about all of it!!!!

We have a new baby. Yeah for Pearson Dean Hopkins!!! He is the cutest funnest baby!!!! Weall love him so much. He keeps me busy but i think he is a fairly easy baby! The kids love him ann we haven't had any jealousy problems which is a definate plus.

Topher and cree have started school! And of course now i can't get it to upload the cute pictures of them so they may have to come later.

Cree's first day of kindergarten Topher's broken arm

so not only topher get a broken arm but he also got bit by my parents dog.and has some added scars on his face now. we also got to go to redfish which was a lot of fun!

Family

So it has been over a month since i have gotten on here! Sometimes i am just such a slacker, that and the fact there has been a lot going on! Yeah!!!!! I'm pregnant and due Aug. 6!!!!!! We are all really excited and can't wait. o.k. so t.j. isn't sure what he thinks yet but i hope will be o.k. when we get there. Christmas was really great!!! Most of my family headed up to the cabin were we spent a week together(was kind of hard for my sister Jen to get there since she has four kids and lives in Kansas(we missed her tonz). It was a great week my kids loved the fun of having aunts and uncles to play with and i enjoyed trying to relax a little bit.
We have managed to loose our point and shoot camera were i get my pic's for the blog since i struggle to get them off tyler's with out alot of help so I might not have pictures for a while!
We headed down to shriner's on wednesday of this week and got t.j's foot fixed it was getting to short and was almost pinching his leg! it will be nice to not have him screaming everyday that his leg hurts!!!
Topher started basketball this past month and it is hilarous!! If you have never watched kids try to play basketball when they have never done it before you should because they are FUNNY! His last game was kind of late and he had to force himself to try to stay awake and finally we just had to take him home.
Well that's all i can think of right now so hopefully i will blog again soon!!!

The Dance Tech Benefit

Tonight was the Dance Tech Benefit. It was at Hillcrest again this year. I really like it that they have an auditorium Both Cree and T.j. danced and i just thought i would show you how cute they are up there on the stage.

Creedance did a really good job. She is learing to follow so well

T.j. also did fairly good most of his class didn't move. One little boy was all that did the whole class. But everyone loved him!!!
