Jillian!!!

So this morning I am hand mopping our floor, I know call me crazy but I think it gets cleaner this way because I can see the areas where I have missed, but my knees are now killing me. While I am doing this Jillian is playing and I didn't think anything of it. Then I turn around to check on her and this is what I see...she climbed into the drawer of our china hutch and is playing in it! Crazy girl! I'm surprised the bottom didn't come out of it.

Marcus!!!

So Marcus for awhile now has had sleeping issues and the last month and half or so he has been snoring really bad. His tonsils are also really inflammed. So we took him to the pediatrician and he said that his tonsils and adnoids will need to come out and to take him to an ENT. Last friday we took him to the ENT and he confirmed that they will need to come out and the most of his sleep problems are from inflammed tonsils/adnoids. So, Marcus is scheduled for the big day on Dec 3rd. Hopefully this will help with his sleep issues and we can get him on a regular pattern to sleep all night.

Halloween!!!

Here are the kids on Halloween night. We started our night out at grandma's with most of the grand kids together for pizza and candy. Then we headed home to do some trick-or-treating...Madison was into it but after a few houses Marcus was ready to be done and Jillian was along for the ride. I am bummed though, we lost her antlers/antennas. She was playing with them and apparently dropped them while we were walking along trick-or-treating. Jillian is a ladybug, Marcus was a doctor and Madison was an ice princess.

Pig Tails!!!

Look at the cute, big girl with pig tails! This is the first time she has had them and I can't believe how much different she looks...SO CUTE!!! She got lots of compliments at church.

Dirty!!!

So you know the kids had a good time playing outside when you turn around for just a second and turn back and you see this...made me laugh! I think she might have eaten some too...she was black on her face, her belly, her hands and her legs. She went straight to the bath!

Ride-a-long...

The Thursday after we got back from San Diego I had the opportunity to do a ride-a-long with LifeNet air-evac. The base was located in Florence, what a place...I got there about 10:30a and met with Jeryl the flight nurse who also works part-time at MVMC who invited me along for the ride. After meeting the flight paramedic and the pilot we went over some safety training and where my seat would be and what would happen if we did get a call. After that we went to a mom/pop place to have a sandwich and back to headquarters to hang out and wait for a call. Well about 2p they were placed on hold with Florence prison and then they were called out. Well because it was with Florence prison I didn't get to go :(, the guard would be taking my seat with the prisoner. So at that point I left to come home and just as I was coming around the corner to home there was the air-evac over head transporting the patient. I was invited back to do another ride-a-long and I sure do plan to. Lots of fun can't wait to go again!

Whoo Hoo!!!

Bring on the surplus of TP! Marcus is potty trained...I never thought this day would come since he seemed to refuse there for awhile but he is done and doing great. He has actually been trained for about a month now and has only had one spontaneous accident. Even on our trip to San Diego he did good and didn't have one accident and we stopped for him to go even though we put a diaper on him in case he fell asleep so he wouldn't have an accident but he refused to go in his diaper and screamed at us to stop, so we did. We do still put a diaper on him at nap and bed time especially because he drinks so MUCH but other then that it's great and we're loving it, GOOD JOB MARCUS!!! Plus his little butt looks so cute in 'big boy undies'!
