Homecoming week

Today was hero's and legends day. I was Captain America and Eila was Pocahontas. We had a long debate this morning about which one was better. Pocahontas saved one man, but Captain America saved the WORLD!!!

Sunday

Beautiful Weather this weekend!

We painted out pumpkins this year... Last year they rotted on the porch before halloween...

Hospital Pics

Eila is finally starting to get back to normal. she is still on breathing treatments but her cough is minimal. Last week she only made it to school 2 half days. Speaking of last week, did I mention that our mother left for 6 days!! She had a meeting in Texas. Daddy (and a small Army) were able to hold down the fort!! Thanks to Grammy, Nana, Aunt Resa and everyone else that helped. Daddy is still sane because of you. In the middle of dr appts, dance and soccer, daddy volunteered (he was sort of guilted in to it) to sub at Eilas school for a few hours. Let's just say we will be homeless before he becomes a teacher!! It was an adventure for all and we hope we never have to do that again!!

This was Eila for community helped day, she was a dentist.

Poor Tootie in the ER

They made the best of it. Gloves are a great source of entertainment

First ER visit

Well, our streak has ended. Everyone in the ER was amazed that with three kids we went over 5 years without going to the ER or hospital. Thursday Eila's asthma started acting up and by Friday morning she was having trouble breathing. Daddy brought her to the ER where they started breathing treatments and steroids. The doctor decided to she wanted her to stay for 24 hours so her and Mommy camped out at the hospital. They came home yesterday, she still "yellow" (asthma talk for not "green" (completely better) but not "red" (needing to be in the hospital)) but we are continuing the treatments here.

We will post pics soon...

Last Month

Mommy is starting to realize that when Caleb is older and looks back on this blog, he will not know nearly as much as his childhood as me and Eila will.. We have really had a busy month, Caleb had tubes put in and his adenoids scraped. He had bad night terrors from his anesthesia and sleep was hard to come by (for mommy and daddy) He seems to be better now, last night he slept all night... Mommy is hoping to move him to his room in the next 6 months! When he is feeling well, he is quite the character. He repeats most of what Eila and I say and tries to do everything we do! Climb, flip, dig, swing, brush his teeth, put on shoes... Mommy hopes this is effective when potty training starts! Eila is doing amazing in school! She loves her teacher Mrs. Lauren. She has had yellow in conduct every day this school year (yellow is the best she can get). She even got picked to go to the principles office and get ice cream for her good behavior. I love school too, i'm definitely coming out of my shell.

We have started talking to our architect for our new house. He also happens to be my school friends daddy, so when we go talk about the new house, I get to play with Gabe and Eila gets to play with his big sister Maci! It is such a good time!! We leave Caleb behind so Mommy and Daddy can get something accomplished..

This is not a video of us, but it does make us laugh! We went to our lot to fly planes and this is what happens when a certain some one is too busy trying to video us! She almost gets knocked with the plane... When we hear her giggle, it makes us giggle!

Playing in the back of the truck once we get tired of playing with the planes.
