Well I see it's been over a month since I've updated...where does the time go? Seems like alot has happened since then so here goes....

The end of February all three kids were sick. Needless to say it was not a fun couple of weeks for me! Caden had influenza, Colten seemed to just have a cold, and little Miss Alli ended up in the begining stages of RSV. The RSV test came back negative but the doctor said if I wouldn't have brought her in when I did, we probably would of ended up in the hospital. We ended up doing breathing treatments for about a week. She did really well with the first couple treatments but after that she had had enough! I ended up having to do them after she fell asleep so she would hold still.

Here she is trying to hold it all by herself...actually she was probably getting ready to pull it away!


In other news...the end of February our dog, Nala, had knee surgery. It's so hard to justify your dog having a surgery like that but we are so glad we did. She really is such a good dog and she's only a year old! She's healed wonderfully and is pretty much back to her old tricks! Here she is 3 days after surgery...not looking too happy!!

And here's Caden....
He's growing sooooo fast and getting soooo big! He's really enjoying kindergarten and already talking about 1st grade! It's amazing how much they learn so early in school now. I was always worried that he would have the hardest time adjusting to school which has NOT been the case at all! He's for sure his OWN little guy and with his OWN ideas!

Colten also is growing like a weed...he will soon be as tall as me and he's only in 1st grade! He absolutely LOVES school! He has not been happy with how much school he has had to miss being sick. He's had alot of strep throat this year so April 18th he will be having his tonsils out. He's actually happy he's having it done. We'll see what he thinks when it actually happens! 

And our little Miss Alli....she is 6 months old now...WOW!! Her first little tooth has popped thru...thank goodness! She was a grumpy little thing!! She had her 6 month checkup on Wednesday and all is well. She's in the 70th percentile for her height and 40th percentile for her weight. She's trying to sit on her own but hasn't quite gotten it yet. She also has started rubbing her face into the floor with her bottom in the air...army crawling may be in our near future. She is still fighting the whole sleeping thing. She has been doing better at night but during the day she only sleeps for about 20-30 minutes at a time. I know this will pass...or at least I hope so! :)
