Deja Vu

Four months ago Ammon got the flu, was sick for a few days, then started having breathing problems.  We took him to Wee Care, they tested his oxygen and then rushed him over to the ER.  Ammon had to stay in the hospital for three days trying to feel better and get his oxygen levels back up. 

 

That was the first time we've ever had one of our children stay in the hospital, and we never wanted to do it again!

Last week Peter got the flu, was sick for a few days, then started having breathing problems. We took him to Wee Care, they tested his oxygen and then rushed him over to the ER.  Peter had to stay in the hospital for  three days trying to feel better and get his oxygen levels back up. 

So weird and sad, poor boys!

That's the best smellin' barf I've ever cleaned up!

This poor baby has a bad cough, mild fever, runny nose, pink eye, and he just threw up.  Fortunately for me, the only things he's eaten today are strawberries, fruit snacks and orange juice.  His puke didn't smell too bad, just kinda fruity.

Grandma's Crazy Idea

My mom is always thinking of creative, fun things for our kids to do.  Last Friday she planned for our kids to go sledding.  Unfortunately, most of our snow had melted. So Amelia and I suggested roller blading or riding scooters. But Grandma decided to bring the sleds, just in case.

Of course, the kids thought sledding on a tiny pile of snow on the sidewalk was a fabulous idea.  There go Leia and Peter along the cement.

 The kids were not at all discouraged with the lack of snow.  They slid along the concrete again and again.

 We finally took the kids to a nearby hill with a little more snow on it.  They were completely drenched from the wet snow because I had them dressed for riding scooters, but they had a fantastic time.  Never doubt the great ideas from Grandma!

Talmage helped Peter the whole time, what a wonderful big brother.

Mountain Goats

I am used to Ammon climbing all over the place, but recently I found Peter standing on top of Ammon's dresser.  Of course, as soon as Ammon saw, he had to join Peter on top of the furniture.  My silly little mountain goats!

Number 33!

Spencer and I enjoyed our 33rd birthdays!  For our birthday celebrations, we both chose to go out to dinner without our kids one night, and then play volleyball with our family and friends the next day.  Grandpa Rollins took everyone out to lunch after playing volleyball.  We had a great time even though we were stinky and sweaty from volleyball!

The day after my birthday, I went to dinner and a show at the Desert Star Theater with seven other fun ladies from my ward.  We had such a fun, silly time!

My Dad keeps asking me if I feel old because I turned 33 last week. I always answer...No! I feel great! (My Dad also keeps asking me when I'm going to have another baby.  I always answer...None of your business!)
