"Mine Dirlfriend"


Cannon is gearing up for Monday and his sweet Valentine... Caleb's little girlfriend... picture above.
Last night we made Valentines for their party's... Caleb's is Monday and Cannon's (first ever) will be on Tuesday at preschool.
While Mr Cannon was coloring and putting glitter on the hearts he tells me, "mine dirlfriend Camille-her mine valentime!" After a yelling match at the table between the boys and the respected "dirlfriend," I was able to distract them with brownies! Lovely.

After three snow days -not leaving the house once-I can not wait for the 70 degree temps that are headed our way this weekend and week following! I hope to get my wild boys out this weekend while Chief is preparing for a huge wrestling tournament that we are hosting next weekend here in Bryant. I am not ready for the wildness and I have actually called my parents to come up and help and I hate doing that! Chief and I hate asking for help with the kids but 5 am weight ins and finals at 9 pm...the double stroller will be logging killer miles on Friday night and Saturday!



Enjoy your weekend!!

The girl who has stolen our hearts...

Little Miss is 6 months old today!!!!
I can't believe how fast the time has gone and how much a sweet little girl has changed our lives.
She has definitely stolen the hearts of us all including the three boys in the house!!!
Her 6 month dr appt in not until this coming week but due to Little Miss being sick this week we got to visit the dr multiple times to get her weight!
Long story made short:
*She went to the dr on Wed morning with fever and a cough
*The dr thought it was (just a warning hold your breath) Whopping Cough! YES! What? no way? Not my baby! She stays home with me and stays with us during church???
Anyway, they did a swab and told me it could a week to know the results ???
*Okay, so after I went nuts on them...we left. With an antibiotic that won't kill an ant and an inhaler??? Oh, and treating her for a mild case of RSV??? no xray??
*She continues to run  high fever ( above 102 constantly) and throwing up every time she eats and coughs!
*10:30 pm fever is 103.6 call office no call back after 45 min. Call my father in law he says to head to Children's Hospital and he is calling ahead to let them know.(He is an ER doctor)
* Fever climbs over 104 while @ Children's
*Chest xray clear -NO RSV NO WHOOPING COUGH
*They get fever down to 100 and she finally eats and holds 2 oz down
*Says if fever persists it is the flu and they will not swab b/c if they have flu symptoms they treat like the flu.
*Home around 6 am

So, you can tell our week was shot down the sink with dr appts and Cannon starting preschool this week. But, Little Miss is still running a low fever so it looks like the flu. She was SUPPOSED to get her flu shot this Wednesday at her 6 month appt!

But, anyway she is weighing in at a big 17 lbs and wearing 6 months clothes! She is a little chunky monkey but I LOVE my sweet babies that way!
She gets up in the crawling position and rocks back and forth so fast but doesn't go anywhere. She is able to move all around the living room by either rolling or scooting. She is able to get up on her feet know while in the crawling position too! She is sitting up and gabbers all day long! which I LOVE!!!
She loves to watch me sew and we just talk and listen to music! She doesn't want her toys but she LOVES Cannon's!!!
She is eating so well and loving whatever I feed her! She is not picky like the boys at all!
Her sleeping schedule is doing great but I am trying to get her to go down earlier in the evening! She likes to try to wait up on Chief most nights which is killing me!
I took a few pictures of the little lady 2 weeks while trying on clothes that I though wouldn't fit! We had a mid day photo shoot with Cannon's assistance!
The last picture is her sitting up by her presents and wearing her sweet headband Mrs. Channa and JR sent her!!! Also, a quick pic of her little rolls I just love em!

Quick bit: Cannon loved preschool this week! Whooo hooo! He loves Tam-Tam his teacher (Mrs. Tammy) and can't wait for their Valentimes(yes he says Valentimes) Party this week!
