Happy Birthday Landon (oh, and Happy Valentine's Day too!)


This morning we took a few minutes out of moving and packing to go to breakfast at our favorite diner, Dave's of Milton to celebrate our baby Landon turning 4 and Valentine's Day. We can't believe he's getting so old already! Happy Birthday Sweetheart! We love you so much!

A week of sickness


The boys had back to back doctor appointments on Monday. The diagnosis? Landon- 1 ear infection, Levi- 1 ear infection, 1 strep throat virus

The boys NEVER fall asleep anywhere but their beds so this was quite the shot to catch as they both fell asleep ON me!! I like how telling the picture is with the boxes in the background and especially how Batman has been booby-trapped with the GI Joe hook!

We have been battling some crazy illness around here lately. We've had sleepless nights filled with coughing, high fevers and humidifiers. We've had rashes, sore throats, ear-aches, headaches, runny noses, stuffy noses and sneezes. After being quarantined in this house, our only escape being to the doctor or the pharmacy, I am sooo ready for some good health around here! I believe we are on the road to recovery, but first I had to share some of my daily 365 pics taken during the "sick week."

25 Random Things About ME!!!!

1. I have never played a team sport in my life. Except for what was required of me in P.E. class, of which I did the bare minimum to pass.
2. I have never broken a bone. (I believe this may have something to do with number 1)
3. When I was little I always wanted a pet monkey.
4. I am completely addicted to the combination of chocolate and peanut butter.
5. I have a "floating rib."
6. I have a hole in my arm from where the needle from the amniotic fluid test hit me when I was still in my mom's womb. I have always been thankful that it didn't hit me in the face!
7. I met my husband for the first time at an MXPX concert at Green River Community College after standing in line in the rain for one hour. I looked like a drowned rat!
8. I like playing first person shooter and role playing games on the Xbox 360. I just beat the Fable II game.
9. I am skilled at finding amazing bargains. It has been said by some that I can hear a clearance rack calling my name from miles away and it always seems to have the best stuff on it!
10. My sister and I are better friends now than when we were little.
11. I used to have my nose pierced.
12. I love math. I used to ask for extra credit problems in high school because I thought it was so much fun.
13. My husband proposed to me in the afternoon sunlight, standing under a tree in the yard of a church. Then we danced to "our song" in the grass.
14. I have a sweet tooth that is never satisfied. I'm probably headed straight for diabetes. My kids call me the Queen of the Treats.
15. My nickname since I was about 14 is Beeb. There are only a select few who can still call me this though. You know who you are!
16. My mother-in-law taught me how to cook.
17. I have really long arms. I was once told they were 2 inches longer than an average person my height.
18. While I was growing up, my Grandma Violet was my caregiver much of the time. She was an amazing woman of God and I miss her dearly.
19. I am really allergic to cats.
20. I have a part in one of the songs on Aaron's album.
21. I was attacked by a hive of bees while playing hide and go seek in my neighbor's yard when I was little. To this day I am still terrified of bees.
22. I refuse to swim in dark water. It completely freaks me out.
23. I have climbed the stairs to the top of the Washington Monument in DC.
24. I wish I were a neat freak, but the truth is I'm kinda messy.
25. I love trying new wines. My favorites right now are Pinot Noir and Johannisburg Riesling.
