Last week

We had a crazy week. After a fun memorial weekend spent with family, Landon ended up getting sick with Strep throat and an ear infection. On Wednesday night we went to check out the new rec. center. Landon appeared fine all day, a little clingy and tired, but he wasn't too bad. After a little while looking around the rec center, Landon started saying, "mom, i wanna go home". Very unusual for him to ever say he wants to go home! So we left and hit walmart to get Kailyn some food. Landon started looking very pale and getting extremely warm. We bought a thermometer in walmart and took his temp in walmart......Brad and i freaked out when it read 103. We scurried through walmart to get him home and while checking out at the register he threw up all over Brad. Anyway, we gave him some motrin and got him home and in the bath right away. The bath brought his temp down to 102 and he finally ate some crackers after not eating all day. I didn't know his throat hurt at this point and i figured he had an ear infection because he would freak out when we'd take him temp in one ear. So after a pretty much sleepless night and a very lethargic little boy, i took him to the doctor only to be told i'd have to wait 2 hours before i could even be put on the list. So i took him to instacare where we waited 2 hours to be seen. Landon was so cute. He was so tired, but didn't want to be cuddled really because it hurt his body, so he sat patiently in the chair. When we got back to the room he crashed on the table til the doctor came in. He was SOOOO cute. So, we left with strep and an ear infection. The antibiotic and motrin has kicked in and he is feeling much better today.
BUT...... yesterday Kailyn started acting weird and she had a fever of 103 as well. I'm thinking she might be feeling the same as Landon, so i started her on some antibiotics i had left over from an ear infection last march and her fever has come down to 101 so hopefully we caught it in time before she has to go through too much pain. They are cute sick little kids and i've enjoyed the time at home with all of us over the weekend. And i'm sure grateful for Brad who was by Landon's side, and now Kailyn, making sure they are as comfortable as possible and just being the most cuddly dad EVER. This week will be a much healthier week and i'm looking forward to playing with my kids again. I sure do love them.

WE ALL LOVE DAD & Brother and Sister

Landon is becoming Brad's little shadow. When he knows Brad is home and he's not in eyesight, Landon asks "where dad go"? Both Kailyn and Landon stand at Landon's window and watch for dad's truck when he comes home from work. Landon will turn to Kailyn and say "here he comes" (In a baby voice of course, naturally so Kailyn understands). Then when Landon spots the truck, he bails out the room SCREAMING "dad's home" and rushes to the garage door and waits til Brad pulls in. Kailyn on the other hand isn't so fast, but she certainly knows what is happening. She immediately starts crying and bobbing up and down until i pick her up and rush her out to the garage as well where she greets Brad with all smiles and giggles. THEY LOVE THEIR DAD. And i love him too. ;)

This is Brad attempting to take a 10 min. breather outside and practice his putting, but it soon becomes Landon's golf lesson.

And now he gives it a try, by himself!

And Brad ends up playing with Kailyn.... Landon and the golf club are no where to be seen.....

Landon and Kailyn just love each other. Here are some fun pictures of the cute brother and sister.

And yes, I've taken to "BLOGGING" very well. :)

One more thing....

Oh ya, and i wanted to share this cuz i was sad about it! It's been super windy this yr and especially where we live. I went outside the other day with the kids and saw one of our cute little trees broke. I really am sad about it. I like all of our trees. I feel connected to them (wow.... just got a flashback of Carly not wanting to suffocate her carebears by the pillows or covers ) I mean, it's cool and all, it's just a tree.

KAILYN TOOK HER FIRST STEP!!

Oh my GOSH! Kailyn is about to walk! I know she's 11mo and that's what they do and all, but she has grown up WAY to fast. Tonight we were fixing our computer(minor people, don't freak) and Kailyn was standing up reaching for the blinds. Brad turned around and started playing with her and she took 2 steps by herself. I MISSED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Landon's artwork

So, the other day i found some canvases on sale at Michaels. They were really cheap so i bought them. I then found WAY cheap finger paints! I asked Landon if he wanted to paint a picture. He immediately screamed out to me BALLOONS (we see hot air ballons from our house and he gets really excited about them and he focuses on pronouncing the LL which makes it so cute). So i took him outside and got all set up to paint a picture of balloons. After all of 5 minutes of painting he was done. But so proud of his picture. I have it in his room and everytime he sees it he says "Look mom, baLLoons".
