Sickies!

So it seems like my kids are always sick with something. We just get better and then we get something else. About three weeks ago my boys had Bronchitis, and Enza had RSV or something similar to it, it took forever to be all better from that. We have been better for maybe five days, and last night I was up with Cruze until 5:45 this morning. He went to sleep with barely a runny nose, and about a half hour later he was bawling and super upset. So needless to say I took him in and he has double ear infections, a ruptured eardrum, and strep throat. Seriously he is by far the one who gets the sickest, but I feel so bad that he has so much going on. It makes complete sense why he was so upset and in so much pain last night, but man, oh man! Enza wakes up from her afternoon nap and has pooped and leaked through everything. She was covered from her armpits to her knees, and then it is always laughable to try to get the clothes up and over their heads without covering them in it even further. So I finally get her undressed and bathed. I put my boys to bed, and then I am feeding her baby food before bed and we are just about done and literally the entire thing comes right back up. (As a little side note Enza eats a ton before bed. She usually eats 3 jars of baby food, mixed with 3/4 C. of rice ceral.) There was so much of it that I had to bath her again, and there was a puddle in her bouncer. Anyway, I am looking forward to warm weather so that most of the sick germs are outta here. I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Our New Niece!

My sister Danielle and her husband adopted a sweet little girl a little over a week ago. It was last minute, which it seems is how it always happens with the adoptions that have taken place in my family. They found out on Wednesday that the couple wanted to place with them, and the left on Friday, and the placement happened on Saturday morning. It is amazing and quite the adjustment to have a baby so suddenly. They are so happy and excited to have her in their family. They have named her Adalynn. Abigale and Preslie are so excited too. What an amazing thing that the mom and dad have done for them, they are great people and I hope that they have a lot of happiness and no regrets. They have chosen to place her with an amazing and loving family. CONGRATS!! Here are a few pics of her. The photograper who did these is a friend of Danielle's and she offered to come and take these for them. Her link is emilybaileyphotography.blogspot.com and is just getting her business going so if you are looking for a photographer check her out.

Hello are you out there??

So here's the thing. I have recently added a map to see where people are visiting my blog from, and I didn't know that more than my sister Danielle and my SIL Julie even looked at my blog. So I am excited to see that friends, family, or strangers there ARE people who check it out once in a while. So I am going to ask a favor of anyone who looks at my blog. Please leave me a comment as to where you are from, if I know you or not and how. I am so curious as to how my blog reaches so many people. Alabama who are you, Tennessee? Twin Falls ID? California? Herriman? You get the idea. SO if you could say hi, even if you don't know me I would really love it. Come on you know you want to do it, it really would make my day. Thanks, and a double thanks to those of you who choose to participate.
Thanks, Chantel
