Strong Man and Anniversary Cake!

On Wednesday Kreighton and I went to Will's circus he was the a "strong man"....it was cute.  Even though I think Will might be the skinniest kid in his class :)  After the boys woke up from naps we headed to Manchester where Grandma and Grandpa's friends had a little celebration for them!

Will being a ham! 
Look at those muscles!

Grandma and Grandpa have been married for 65 years...holy cow!


Somebody was all smiles!





Poor Kyle....

Saturday Kyle went with Fred to pick up some Pro Boxes...since it meant he got to just ride in the semi and come back it was safer than trying to keep that monkey to rest in the house.  Well that was not the case...Kyle fell off the back of the semi and broke his fall with his face!   He was pretty banged up so Fred and I decided to take him to the ER because we thought he might have needed stitches and were worried he could have started to bleed where his tonsils were taken out.  He checked out ok...it was still pretty scary and Kyle was pretty sad and sore on Saturday!

Kyle didn't want Bappa Glen to leave...and of course you couldn't tell  Kyle no when he was so sad!





He woke up Sunday morning pretty sad because he thought his face would be better...he kept saying"mom it is still there, my owies are still there"

But today he is doing much better I am sure the tylenol with codeine helps!

Kyle's road to Recovery....

We got out of the hospital this morning at 7:30...which made us all very happy!

I was expecting to come home having to take care of Kyle and say a lot of

"I know it hurts buddy but take this medicine and it will help"
"Let's snuggle for a little bit"
"What movie do you want to watch next"
"Please just try and take a few sips of water"
"Here let mom rock you"

But instead this is what I am saying....

"Please don't climb on the counters you could get hurt"
"Let's rest for a little bit"
"Your brother is not a horse stay off of him"
"Ok...so do you want more to drink"
"I guess if you are feeling ok you can go on a skidloader ride"
"Please don't jump off the couch"

This kid amazes me and this is not at all like his sister's recovery!  Even the tylenol with codeine isn't slowing him down!  Kreighton didn't eat, talk, and barely drank the 1st week we were home.  Kyle is yelling, I think would eat chips if we let him, and is drinking like a champ!

I am know that I am naive to believe that he will be like this the whole time and I am sure we will have some bumps in the road...but I will take what I can get for now!  However I was looking forward to  some extra cuddle/snuggle time with my little buddy...but not so sure that is going to happen!

Snuggling with Daddy before Daddy went home to work on the planter


Sissy came to see us and spend time with us!

And she came equipped with a bucket tractor!


HOME eating ice cream in mom and dad's bed with Grandma Sharon...what more could a kid ask for!

Tonsils Out!

Kyle is all done with is tonsils and is resting comfortably with Fred!  The Doctors said he did great and that his tonsils were huge and needed to be out!  He didn't even cry coming out of surgery and already asked for water and ice cream. And he is also very concerned about the planter being broken....I guess he is a true farmer!  He said "me and Daddy have to fix it"
So hopefully we will be able to get out of the hospital 1st thing in the morning I have house stocked with pudding, ice cream, yogurt, and lots of juice!!

It's Garden Time....

The kids have been talking with Bappa Craig all winter about planting the garden and since we had nice weather they finally got to go out and help!

I can do this Bappa!

I think this rake is a little too big for Kyle!

And it is my job to sit around and be cute again! 



Taking gardening lessons from Bappa! 


Kael's new ride...he loves it and so do I...with my hip/back problems I have been having!

Now we are just waiting for the garden to grow!

Busy Week

Last week we had a lot going on!



Sand in the sand box!

Everyone had to help get the sand off the skidloader!



Kael is my champion eater!  And he had a weight check and put on over a pound in 6 weeks!  He now weighs 15.5

Somebody is pulling up on everything!

He was talking/yelling/screeching at something for 20 minutes

Sissy came out and thought it would be funny to play dress up!


Wearing underwear on your head is cool!

We got to go and visit cousin Sean's pig farm....Kreighton LOVED the little pigs!  Kyle was not a fan!


Kreighton and Peyton!

Grandpa Craig's 64th Birthday Supper!


And Sissy gave the kids a BUBBLE bath...isn't she the best!


3 floating heads!

Helped Grandma and Grandpa clean out the office!

And it was my job to just be cute!
