It is a great picture of Tanner and his Tia. Sorry I don't have the patience to figure out how to make the link work. You will have to copy and paste it:)

More to come soon, if you ever can get healthy at our house. Keep your fingers crossed for us.

I will survive!


Strep has attacked out household for the third time since after Christmas! We found out that Jessi is a carrier. Most of the time this is not a problem because rarely do kids that are carriers give strep to someone else, or so I am told. Also it is really rare for anyone under two to get strep. I need to play the lotto and my chances for winning the publishers clearing house at the end of the month are looking good because there are 4 casualties at our house, and I am the only survivor so far. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

My new climber!


Hunter has decided that he is an expert climber. Multiple times daily he will climb up our fireplace, onto our shoe box, on top o the little kids table and anything else that is within the reach of his little legs to climb on. This has been going on for a few months and he has been able to get off everything most of the time without falling. Well today he found out that he can also use his arms in his mission to climb everything. Problem for mommy. He now can get on the chairs at our table, thus onto the table too, and has already fallen off! So my life as I knew it of him having free reign of the house without me right with him is over.
Here are a few videos from today.

Birthday Party

Jessi had a great time at her party. We just have had few girlfriends over from church and school. We had 7 girls come and it worked out okay. They all played nicely together and were very well behaved.

We played pin the tail on the horse. Horse bingo, and musical chairs. MJ and I were busy with the actual party so there aren't many pictures.


Then we had spaghetti (hay), carrots and apples. Jessi wanted a horse theme and she came up with the menu. It worked very well and no one complained that they didn't like what we had amazingly!
Then we had cupcakes.


Finally presents were exchanged and the girls played a card game while we waited for parents to pick up their girls.


It was a very enjoyable party for everyone. I'm grateful that MJ was able to help or I would have been a little overwhelmed.
Happy Birthday my sweet, spicy girl!

Cupcakes

The boys and I made cupcakes for Jessi's party while she was at school to prepare for her party on Saturday.



Jessi's 6th Birthday


Jessi turned 6 at the beginning of the month but we just had her birthday party on Saturday. Her birthday was on a Saturday this year and she was super excited to have a little party with some of her girlfriends but she got sick the day before and we had to postpone it. She was a really good sport about it, she must be getting more mature in her old age. So for her birthday we had some cupcakes and ate some take-out form Shin's (her favorite restaurant). She also received another American doll for her birthday and is super excited to have her two dolls be able play together since they are best friend. (Kit and Ruthie).
Here she is opening a few gift on her birthday and the day after.


To infinity and beyond!


Tanner likes to fall asleep in our bed. MJ found him there one night in his Buzz Light Year PJ's with Woody and couldn't resist a picture. Tanner stretched right as the picture was taken.
