The Kitchen Sink








So Friday morning while doing breakfast and dishes, our kitchen sink got worse and worse. I wrapped a towel around all the linking and remove everything from under the sink until Joe woke up. We ran to Lowe's and purchased a new faucet, Joe had fixed it a few months ago, and it seemed to work fine. But it was defiantly time for a new one. So I stood in the faucet aisle at Lowe's for about a half hour just looking at all of them, which one do I pick? Joe got it all installed and the kids were right there helping the whole time. Once he was finished, Gavin says "mommy I need to wash my hands" so cute, of course Garrett had to get in the action.

My Poor Little Garrett

So today was not fun for my little Garrett. He has been throwing up since Thursday afternoon and has not keep anything down since then. He started getting worse by Friday night, so this morning I took him into the ER at Sacred Heart Ped's unit. They immediately started him on an IV drip and took some blood to make sure he wasn't too dehydrated. Garrett was such a brave little man, when they took his blood they had to prick him twice on the hand trying to find a good vein. He's never really been this sick, so this was all new to him. Took about 4hours from start to finish at the Hospital, so Mom's Saturday didn't turn out to great. He drank some apple juice before we left and keep it down. He had some animal crackers once we got home and some more juice and was off to bed, tired little guy. So we're hoping he's feeling better tomorrow and we can get some yard work done. All this rain makes me feel like we live in Seattle or something, come on let's get this Spring going already!!

Mommy & Her Boys
















So often, time goes by and I forget to take fun pictures of me and the boys. I want the boys to look back at not only them growing up, but mommy changing too. If all the pictures were of just them, they would ask "where were you mom?"

Fun with Cousin's




Cousin Austin came over to visit for a little bit while my Brother and Sister In-Law had a parent teacher conference. The boys made a great Lego castle together and before they destroyed it, which boys do so well, I got a pic. Austin was feeling a little under the weather and barely had a voice, but he still had fun with his Cousin Gavin. Thanks for coming over Austin, hope your feeling better soon.

Like Father, Like Son!!!!


This was so cute, one morning......which is using afternoon for Joe because he works nights. Gavin and Daddy decided to have some Coffee/Hot Coco and read there favorite magazines. So I had to capture the moment with a fun pic.

Garrett's Having A Snack







Garrett is so cute, he loves to have his snack up on the kitchen counter. Gavin use to do this too, now they are both getting a little too big. Garrett is huge for his age, I can't wait to see how big he'll be when he grows up. I remember all my brothers just towering over my Mom growing up and my Mom saying, "be gently with your Mother!" Now I guess it's my turn, I'm going to have some pretty big boys some day.

Dinner with Friends.











We had a great time at the Taylor's house for. The kids had a great time playing, and Gavin got a taste of what girl toys are all about. Joe works with Matt and Jolene and I are friends through our Mommy&Me group. Here are some fun pictures of the kids playing together. Check out Gavin's shoes, so funny, he just loved running around their house in Minnie Mouse shoes.
