The Nursery

Here are some pictures of the nursery. We are almost finished. Just need some pictures and his name on the wall (but we have to decide on a name of course) and then it's all ready for baby boy to arrive!

New Boots

Here's our cutie pie about to head to school this morning. This picture reminds me of Little Red Riding Hood - for some reason she really wanted to hold that basket in the picture. Check out her new boots. She loves them, but at the same time, she's unsure about them. She was worried they didn't "match" and what she was talking about was the size. She's not used to such big, bulky boots. But she loves how comfy they are, especially since most of her other shoes have been giving her "bloosters" as she calls it.

Our Problem Child

If it's not one thing with Ty, it's another. Who would have thought one cute little dog could have so many issues and be so dang expensive? Not that we don't have enough going on in our lives right now, but Ty decided to add to the fun by getting really sick. He wouldn't eat or drink for a few days. I had to take him to the vet two days in a row to get fluids because he was so dehydrated. They also did two films of his abdomen to make sure he didn't have a blockage. The only thing they found was an inflamed lower intestine filled with gas. The dr. thinks he may have had a virus. So he was sent home with special food, which he still wouldn't eat for another two days and antibiotics. He finally started feeling a little better on Sunday night. Each day he is showing more improvement and I think he's just about back to normal (if you can even call him "normal"). However, he won't stop licking the spot that they put the IV to give him fluids and he's turning it into a "hot spot", which I now have to put ointment and gauze on to prevent from getting much worse. Honestly Tyson!

Here's a picture of him not feeling well last Saturday the 13th.

Getting into the Christmas Spirit

We started our weekend off by watching Fred Claus as a family on Friday night, followed by Frosty the Snowman. Then yesterday morning we headed over to grandma and grandpa's to bake goodies for Christmas. While grandma and I baked, Adi had fun playing house, coloring, and making crafts with scrapbook embellishments. Meanwhile, daddy and grandpa were playing golf up at Tuscan Ridge. They are trying to play as much as possible before the rain comes.

Later in the evening last night, after dinner and bath, we made a gingerbread house! Adi had a blast putting all of the candy on it (and eating some of it too). I on the other hand, was slightly frustrated with the broken roof (it came broken) and the stupid icing. We had a great time together and she just loves looking at her house. She wants to give it to Evan for Christmas - such a thoughtful girl.

Good Friends

Kendal, Mac and Marlee came over to visit last night. The girls had a blast playing house and dress-up in our room. In this picture Kendal is dressed as Hanah Montanna and Adi is a princess. Mac and Lance watched football and talked baseball and the three dogs had a ball playing with each other. It was a great night with friends.

Burrr!

Wasn't I saying in my previous post that I wish it would get cold? Well, the past few days have been really cold! It was 32 this morning and we had frost on our plants! Much better for the holiday season. Here's our cutie pie dressed all warm for school Wednesday morning. She's growing up so fast!
