Kids say the funniest things
Parker was leaving the dinner table the other night and turned back to Dan and I and said, "Mom and Dad, after Jesus you guys are the second nicest people in the world." And then he just walked away. I wonder what goes on in their little minds.
Double surgery day
Today we took Abby and Brynlee in for surgery. Brynlee is getting tubes in her ears. She has had an ear infection almost consistently for three months. With our family history of ear infections we decided she would be better off getting tubes now and not waiting any longer. Whe did so good in surgery. She was a little scared when she woke up, but as soon as I was able to feed her she was fine. And for the rest of the day she was an angel. We are so grateful to have such a happy baby.
Abby had her adenoids removed. She has had a sinus infection since September. We are hoping that this will cure her. She didn't have as good of a day as Brynlee. She was so scared when the doctors took her into the operating room. I wanted to cry and crawl into a hole. And when she woke up she was so upset. She kept trying to pull out her I.V. and didn't want them to take her oxygen levels. She finally fell asleep on my lap and we were able to finish the I.V. and watch her levels for an hour. They let us leave the hospital and she through up in the car and was so out of it all day. Its now been two weeks and she still isn't 100 percent better. I hope this will all be worth it in the end. We love Abby and just don't want her to be uncomfortable.

St. Patrick's Day!
This year for St. Patrick's Day we were tricked. The Leprechaun's came to our house this year and left 7 tricks for our kids to find. First they all woke up to find green streamers all over there rooms. All the doorways were blocked with an x made of streamers. The chairs were on the table, the lamp shades were upside down, the furniture was flipped over, the milk was green, the bathroom mirror had a message written with green tooth paste, "LUCKY DAY," the kids shoes were in the oven, and they had a green breakfast. There was a pot filled with green treats on the kitchen counter. We had a silly string battle after school and the kids colored St. Patrick's Day coloring pages. It was such a fun day. The kids hope that next year we get tricked even more.
