Abby on the move!!

It's official. She is on the move and boy are we in trouble. I am do not ready fir a crawler. And neither are the boys. The Legos and squinkies are kind in lock down unless she's napping. It going to be an adjustment!

Thanksgiving,

This year we got to spend our amazing Thanksgiving with our good friends the Pennings. We had a great time eating and playing games. Can't wait to play again soon. Abby loved sitting in the high chair. Sammy loved their aunt Stacy's rolls, and David wanted third helping of pie. I taugh them how to play shrimp cocktail and bananagram!

Black Friday!!

Well although technically it was a Black Thursday this year I did participate. I did pretty good too although after shopping late and staying up with a crabby Abby until the wee hours of the morning, I was tired! I fell asleep downstairs and Sammy decided he was hungry and helped himself to the pumpkin pie. Then I just gave in and let them really enjoy breakfast!!!

Abby 7 months old

So I kind of missed the 6 month mark but that's life these days. Abby is 7 months old now and she loves to laugh. She is rolling all over the place and loves to get stuck underneath the couch. The boys love her to death and think she is amazing and can't wait for her to start running after them. I have a feeling they will change their mind soon. She pushes up to almost all fours and I am not ready for her to crawl.

Halloween

Ok we had a super crazy Halloween. Bryan had to work so me and the kids ran and ran and ran! The kids had a half day of school. We had a friend party first, then walked to all of the local businesses here in Selah, hit the ward party and trick or treated our neighborhood. I wish I had taken a picture if their bags because they were FULL!

Playing with friends

We went to a park with our friends the Maren, Matthew, and Heather. They found a park of in Moxee and wow did we have fun!

David , a Runner?

Well David entered his first true running race. The fun run at John Cambell Elementary! He was so excited about it he could hardly handle it. The "big" day came and he got to run. He started out great and kind of lost his pace but as he was finishing all he could say was "mom, I wasn't even last!" I love that kid. Our good friend Maren ran too! She got first. Place for girls in the first grade. David was very happy for her!

This too shall pass!

So it been an entire week since the first person got sick. We are hoping to be done soon. Abby started it all with croup and hers snowballed into double ear infections again! Sammy got strep and threw up. David we treated for strep but ended up with mild pneumonia. Me laryngitis and a sinus infection and bryan just started coughing. To say it has been a crazy week would be an understatement. But thankfully life has been kept in perspective. As our good friends Angee and thom watched our little superhero severing go in for his third open heart surgery on the 15 th. he is doing so well and we ( all of us) pray for him in every prayer. I have gotten pretty creative as far as entertainment is concern but don't get me wrong we have watched plenty of movies too! We have built forts numerous times, David has gotten really good at shrimp cocktail, we have colored more pages than I can count and last night we made Star Wars snow flakes that we destroyed with our light sabers!! Hopefully this week we can really recover!
