Happy Birthday Kiley...

Hey Ki it's your birthday! I hope you are having an AWESOME day! I have been thinking about all the fun things we did together in high school. I wish I could go back for just one day. We seriously shared a Cafe Rio chicken salad everyday one summer, then we would go find a pool to sneak into. It was sooooooooo FUN! All the good memories. I really wanted to put a picture of Ki in my cheerleading outfit, but I CAN NOT find it, dang because it was sooooooooooo funny! Well hope you have a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

MY CRAPPY MORNING-
On another note, I have to tell about my morning... Holy crap it was bad! I woke up and thought oh no, it's the last day of the month- I have to go to WIC. So I pack up the kids and we get there at 9:00, the place is packed. Duh... I should have gone earlier in the month but never got around to it. Well we are waiting and I hear Carter rumbling (yes, he majorly went to the bathroom). I look in my bag and NO wipes... so I thought I will just wait to change him, hopefully this doesn't take too long. Next thing I know it's leaking out onto his shorts. So I go and tell them I have to go and change my baby's diaper and for some reason the lady was soooooooo nice and asked me if I needed anything. So I asked for wipes, she had some. I though ok I can just wipe it out of his shorts, it was just a little bit. We get to the bathroom and it is clear up to the back of his shoulders. All over in his onesis and I have NO extra clothes. So I get him naked and get him all cleaned up, having no idea what to put him in. So I rinse out his polo shirt in the back where the poop was, luckily the onesis got most of it. And tried to dry it with like a million paper towels. Wipe out his shorts and put on his cold, wet shirt and head back in. Like 10 minutes later, here comes round 2 (REMEMBER HOW MANY ANTIBIOTICS HE'S BEEN ON FOR HIS EARS)! Look in my bag and not a single diaper or wipes now. How could I be soooooooooooooooooooooo UNPREPARED! So I asked them if I could go home and change my baby and then come back, they said I could but I would have to wait ALL over again. We had already been waiting for 1 1/2 hours, so I DIDN'T want to do that. I tell them my situation and a lady gave me a diaper. Needless to say I was TOTALLY humiliated. I was not prepared at all for this day. So I have learned a lesson, ALWAYS have diapers and wipes and an extra outfit when leaving the house. Sounds like common sense to me- What is wrong with me???

Update...

Carter had to go to the Dr's for his ears today. His ears were still bad and he still had a fever of 102, so they had to give him a shot in his bum. He screamed... but he should start feeling better REALLY soon. Thank heavens for antibiotics... I'm tired!!!

So BIG...

Carter really should have been in a big boy seat a couple of months ago, but I just didn't want to do it. I am a germ freak and I can't stand the thought of him sitting in the grocery cart, plus that is where Ammon sits. This is definitely going to complicate grocery shopping or just when he falls asleep in his car seat. I'm afraid if Ammon can't sit where he always has, he's going to start acting up... Any advice, anyone???

I hate it when my kids are sick...

Well we all just got over a cold (except Mike never got it) and then yesterday... Carter was not acting normal at all. He was napping a lot and just crying and being super clingy. After his afternoon nap he felt hot and had a fever of 102. Then right after he started trying to pull off his left ear, and was totally screaming. So obviously he has an ear infection, so I called the Doc and he called in an antibiotic (I love that my Dr will do that). But Carter didn't sleep very well last night and as soon as the Motrin would wear off he would have a fever again. I just feel so bad for him, he looks at me with the saddest "puppy dog" eyes. Hopefully the antibiotic will start working soon and will help him to feel better!

Much easier now!

Can I just say that having 2 kids is so much easier then 1. Now that Carter is old enough to play with Ammon, they really play together all day. I LOVE it! I am enjoying just watching them as I do other things like cleaning, or scrapbooking. Ammon told me the other day "Carter is my best friend". It can't get much better then this...

Too Funny...





So I didn't realize how funny these pictures were until last night when I was looking through my camera. I was laughing sooooooooo hard! Ammon's a little dancer, this age is just hilarious!!!

Swimming!!!


We went swimming last weekend with my little sis and had sooooooooo much fun. Carter LOVED it, we all had a good time!
