Our first trip to the ER
I have worried having all boys that I would find myself in the Emergency Room often. So I was surprised to have our first trip be on behalf of Kevin. He was elbowed in the eye during a basketball game. I wasn't there so he came home and wanted my opinion as to whether it needed stitches or not. But every time I looked at it, it made my pregnant belly nauseous. I told him he would have to make that call himself. Luckily that night he had to go to another family's house to church stuff and they assured him it needed stitches. So we came home packed some food and his computer and headed off to the ER at 11:00 pm. Several hours later he woke up with me staring at this eye trying to count how many stitches there were. It was three. I was surprised for splitting the skin that his eye didn't get more black or swollen. Warning if pregnant you may not want to view these pictures. HAHA
"I have a brother!!"
Before we left for Christmas vacation we had a friend do an ultrasound for us and found out that we are having ANOTHER BOY. So I took a day to mourn the fact that I wouldn't be going on any pink shopping spree. But after that, I was really excited to have three little boys. After we got back we had our official ultrasound where it was reaffirmed. Believe me, I have checked both ultrasound pictures more than once. It really is a boy. Quin has figured out that a boy makes you a brother. And is now even calling one of his little friends his brother. Kale is excited to have four boys in the family--making me feel even more out numbered. Kevin was excited to have a foursome. I was offended that I got bumped out of the foursome. I told him if I am not invited golfing I would have to take up shopping. He told me I could carry the clubs. Thanks Kev!
Let's go fly a Kite!
The weather has been great here. Kale was able to fly his kite he got for Christmas last week and was so excited. It took a little while to get it up but they had fun running with it up and down the street. It never got stuck in any trees just the neighbors roof, but we were able to get it down, so I would call it a success. The boys had so much fun.
LaPray Family Snowmobile Trip
We had an awesome time up at the moon family cabin. We had four snowmobiles and a couple of sleds and a ton of fun. Kevin spent most of the time pulling Jaxon and Kale up the trail so they could sled down. He said almost every time he found them at the bottom covered in snow laughing. There was a lot of snow. We had great time together despite the broken water pipe and hours of clean up work. Kale was excited when he found out that we actually wanted him to not flush or wash his hands after he went the bathroom. The joy of being a little boy!
Happy New Year 2008!!
Well we are still alive. And did survive our drive to Utah for Christmas. But just haven't downloaded pictures since then, so here is over a month of updates. This is the boys celebrating the New Year at Grandma's with sparklers. Then we went up to the Abbott's where I fell asleep on the couch to be awoken at midnight by my 4 and 2 year old boys banging pots and pans. I guess it's good for Grandma and Nana to get to spoil them sometimes.
