It's Official....

We are crib free!

We've disassembled Adeline's bunk bed and made given each of the kids a twin bed. After 2-weeks of Garrett not sleeping all night and his interest in big sis' bed told us to just go ahead and give him his big boy room. We'll post pictures at some point when the rooms aren't too much of a disaster. He loves it and the best part is that he is back to sleeping all night.

Now...for the binkie! We have only 1-left. Then that is it.

Ahhh..Chooooo....snif, snif....

Well, 50% of the family has a cold....Mommy and Garrett. It's the middle of January and the first sickness of the cold/flu season. I consider this a success.

The excitement though is diminished substantially by clouded heads, hacking coughs, sneezing, stuffy nose, runny nose, aches and so on. TLC, tea (for mom) and orange juice or grape orange juice (in Garrett's terms.....which means apple juice - go figure). Mommy just wants to go to bed.

Daddy is super Daddy as always. When Garrett is up in the middle of the night, coughing and crying away, Daddy to the rescue so Mommy can sleep. Side note...he does this even when I'm not sick. He even does dishes....where did that come from... He is the best. We're blessed. We love you, I love you.

Busy, Busy...

We've had such a busy weekend. We are so blessed to have a great family and to be so close that the kids can spend time with all of them. Grammy came to visit and watch the kids Saturday and off to Lomax we went on Sunday. Thank goodness for 3-days and for a 4-day work week this week! We've got a long time until any vacation time so we need to get focused on work and the nights and weekends with the kids.

Adeline proudly counted to 100 over the weekend. It is amazing to see her grow up. As much as we don't really like the kids growing up it is neat to witness and be in this next stage of their development.

Speaking of different stage....we will be out of diapers in 2010! How awesome is that?! It is an instant salary increase!!

Garrett is more and more interested in the potty. We're not rushing it but encouraging him if he chooses. He's come down with a cold or something. Running our typical protocol of albuterol treatments. We went to Peds After Hours tonight to check his oxygen levels per Pediatrician's orders. It was 94%, not great but not awful either. Keep on doing what we're doing we were told.

Have a great week all!

4-Wheeling Fun!

Another fun filled adventurous day on Sunday at the Websters. 5- 4-wheelers and the open fields...it was an awesome day!




January brings birthday celebrations!

Happy Birthday Andy!

Happy Birthday Stephanie (Mommy!)!

Happy New Year 2010!!

As with any new year comes "New Year's Resolutions"....ours, well mine for now, is to simplify things, have less "stuff", post more to this blog and this is more for work but, be rid of lots of paper filing.

So far, I have 5-stacks of paper sitting around me at our home desk. Not starting out so well. As resolutions go though, it's a start. Oh yeah, we still have the traditional resolutions of eat better and exercise more....typing is strenuous you know!

Happy New Year all!
