The Great Easter Egg Hunt






Baby B went to her first Easter Egg Hunt this year. She was hilarious it only took one egg in her basket for her to figure out the concept. She actually fought the other kids for eggs. Who would have known she could be such a wild egg hunter!! She had a great time and was very sad when it was time to leave and she HAD to have her eggs in her hands at all times. If I took her basket she would scream immediately. Next year should be a lot of fun.

6th Grade Science Project!

Trying to get his robot to work!!

Trying to get his light to work.
He was getting VERY frustrated that it wouldn't work.
Trying one more time..................
Just about got it!!
Big B has a big science project due tomorrow. He and a girl in his class have worked on this robot project for about 2 or 3 weeks. The kids were asked to bring in batteries and old VCR's or any old electronics with a motor. He has been so excited about how well their robot was doing. Then he went to home base today and realized it was not working. So Big B brought it home tonight and worked on it for about an hour and a half. He finally got it going and wanted me to take video for proof. The three things it had to do was operate on a switch, have motion, and have a light. The robot should be able to do all of this hands free! I was so proud of him for sticking to it until he got it working again. We took some video just in case it doesn't work tomorrow at school he can pull up the blog for proof!!

Big Day!!!!

Wouldn't you go too if you had a princess potty like mine?!!

Why am I eating M&M's on the toilet you ask??? Because I went poopy on the Big Girl Potty!!!!!! Hooray!!!!! Be thankful we didn't post a picture of the results;o)!!!

So today is the official 1st day of Spring Break and it was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!! Windy but almost perfect!! The kids played outside, worked some ground (that is fun when you get to be Big B's age!!) and just had a good day at home! Everyone is healthy again and we are thankful for that. Shared a few outside pictures from today!

I dared, poor kid. Hopefully he will sleep most of it off.
Spring Break officially started for all of us 3 hours and 12 minutes ago...............Little B started throwing up 3 hours and 10 minutes ago. Can we please get a small miracle and let him be the only one.......please........please.........please. We have done our time with illness. God please let us get by with one sicko bicko. Even though we all know I will be spending my Spring Break with the clorox bottle in one hand tide in the other!! Oh well it could be a lot worse! Dare I go and take a picture of the poor kid..........

We are still here!!

Little B has Spirit Week this week and today was Silly Sock day along with St. Patrick's Day!!
Only Little B would wear this!!!!!!!!
Never too early to learn accounting.
This is our first Easter Dress Option...........not sure about it.
Baby B is not too sure about the dress either.
Well we have had a busy two weeks! We came home from the hospital with Baby B on Wednesday to end up right back at the ER with Little B on Friday. He proceeded to make it in and out of the office numerous times the following week. He started breaking out in hives, like face looked like Rocky hives. It pretty much freaked me out and we now have an EpiPen with him at all times. We really have no clue what has caused all this. The doctors think maybe a virus and honestly when do they think anything else these days. I am not sure I am sold on that quite yet. He has broken out some this week, but nothing like it was at the ER!! We are in full swing of baseball and track. Big B practices every night after school and Little B has baseball 4 times a week. Our door is a revolving door these days. We are hardly ever home. I am very thankful for healthy kids that keep us on our toes though no complaints here!!! Other than that we are pretty dull. Baby B has had time to play outside and is LOVING IT!! She would live outside if we would let her. I am thinking I will be able to plant a few flowers this year again. Only 2 more days until SPRING BREAK, WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can not wait to be home for a whole week. We are Spring Cleaning!!!!!!!! The kids are thrilled and can hardly contain their excitement.......HA! I have promised camp outs if the house get cleaned and that means lots of boys, mud, noise, and bodily functions....YUK! Happy Wednesday to all!!!

The title says it all.......WE ARE HOME!!!!! Baby B is doing much better so we came home this afternoon! When she is sleeping she still has a little trouble breathing but we can handle it. She is moving into our room for the next few nights. Thank you for the prayers.

Quick Update

Baby B right after she finally fell asleep.
You think Daddy T was a little sleepy?
She was so tired at this point she didn't even pull out her oxygen.
This was the first sign of our old Baby B when balloons and Ruffies the 2nd showed up!!
Baby B kissing the Elmo balloon that the Lang family sent her.
Thank you so much for the balloons it made her day she was not perking until these arrived!!
Pneumonia you say? Nothing a little garlic bread can't handle. The girl has not ate in two days and the first thing of "real" food she eats is ..........garlic bread?!?!?
Me and my Ruffies
The prisoner in cell G227.
Trying to escape but the officer caught her!!
Please Please Let Me Out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quick update on Baby B!! She has been off oxygen for 14 hours only 10 more to go and we have half of our ticket home. She is doing better my oh my what a difference 24 hours and antibiotics makes. She will have another round of x-rays in the morning and if they look better and we make it through the night with no oxygen support we will be on our way home to our fabulously comfy couch and beds. I had forgotten how "comfortable" the "beds" were on the pediatric floor. A little funny about the beds. Daddy T and I did not get checked into her room last night until 10:30ish. She was horribly upset because of all the needles and poking in places that shouldn't be poked. Anyways it was around 2am when they put her on the oxygen and the room was quiet enough to sleep. Daddy T had to lay down so he went to pull out the chair bed in the room. He pulled it out and it was the size of a toddler bed. We were both like what the heck we pay all this money to stay here and they can't even afford a bed long enough for a parent to sleep on. Well let's just say we were extremely tired and not coherent because it is long enough for an adult it just took my mom who had a full nights sleep to show us how in the morning!!! He will be sleeping a little better tonight. We are very hopeful that we will be able to come home tomorrow. The blood test that came back a little funky were back to normal this round or the numbers are going down which is very good news. I was not 100% sure where the doctor was going with these tests but I knew it was not a good road. Praise God for putting his healing hand on Baby B!!! Thanks for your prayers they are working!!!!!

Prayers

Hey just a quick little post to ask for some prayers for Baby B. She was admitted to the hospital tonight with pneumonia in one of her lungs. She is on oxygen and FINALLY resting. This is not where I thought we would be 24 hours ago when we took her to the doctor and they said everything was fine. Daddy T and I are having a hard time thinking this all happened in 24 hours. Please say an extra little prayer for her she is frightened with all the poking, IV line, and oxygen in her nose. She actually just pulled her oxygen out again. Poor thing.
