Brenden is so proud of himself. We have been trying to get him to write his name. So Jay made dots for everybodies name and he traced it. We are happy to be this far.

Brenden with his two top teeth gone. Before his bottom one fell out

So cute!!!

Well alot has happened since my last post. Jan 27th Brenden had his two top teeth pulled and then the following week lost one of his bottom, front teeth. He looks so cute. He is now starting to get his bottom one in and the other front, bottom is loose. Then on Wednesday Jayson got tubes put in his ears. What a difference that has made in his attitude. He is so much more happier. So is the rest of us. He has since learned a new word. It happens to be NO. Little stink. Jay is doing good. Onery as ever but I love him all the more. I am doing fine.

Some pics of Brendens 5th birthday

We celebrated Brendens 5th birthday at the bowling alley. Sorry some of the pics are blurry. He had so much fun. WE all had fun. I can't believe that he turned 5. In this first pic left to right is Karlee, Alek and Brenden

I am terrible about this

Well alot has happened since Oct. The sickies hit us hard in Nov. I ended up with a major sinus and ear infection. Jayson got another ear infection. Jay got sick as well. I forgot to get my drivers license renewed on my birthday~ it is ok because I looked and felt like death warmed over~ I didn't need my drivers license pic to look worse then they already do*giggle* We had a good Thanksgiving. Brenden turned 5 on the 16th of Dec. and then we had Christmas. Brenden got sick on New Years Eve and Day. We had Jaysons well baby check up and found out that he is underweight(as in he lost weight from being sick) He also has had an ear infection. The 6th one in the last year. We take him back in on Feb 4th for a weight recheck and to see if the fluid behind his ears is gone. If not then we are looking at tubes. *sigh*. Brenden has his first loose tooth and is none to excited about it. He doesn't want to loose it. He will be getting his top 2 front teeth removed on the 27th. He has an infection that just isn't going away. It all stems from when he smacked his teeth on the side of the tub when he was 13 mos old and then again when he smacked them when he was almost 2. Poor kid. Come this time in 2 weeks he will be rather toothless. I am kind of sad about this. He is growing up so fast. He went to see walking with Dinosaurs with his cousin Alek yesterday. He like it. They didn't get home until 10:30 p.m. so he is in a whiney mood today.

We put bunk beds up for the boys. They give them more room to play. Brenden likes the fact that he can get away from Jayson if he feels he needs some alone time. Jayson likes it because he can get out of bed when he feels like it. We gave his crib to a very young couple who didn't have the money to buy a crib for their little boy. We didn't want to just give the crib to a second hand store we wanted it to go to some who needed it. I will have to admit that it is kind of sad that that part of our lives is over. UMMM lets see I think that is it for the update. I will post pics later. If I remember. LOL

The sickies have hit

The sickies hit our household. Last week and still even some this week I have been sick and then Friday Brenden started getting it and now he is a whiney, sick 4 yr old. He is running a little bit of a fever , has a runny nose and did I mention whiney? I hope that it isn't the flu as we haven't got our flu shots yet. We will be getting those on Nov. 3rd. So far Jayson just has a runny nose and a touch of (sorry tmi alert) diarreah. He gets diarreah when he gets sick and then he get diaper rash. Poor kid. So far Jay hasn't had any signs of a cold *whew*. I have been coughing alot at night and keeping everyone awake so I slept downstairs.

Some pics from Nebraska

So I am a posting fool. Here are some pics from Nebraska. The boys and I had a good time. Brenden LOVES Cahara. He wanted to hold her all of the time. Jayson wasn't so sure about her. He held her once and then was done.
