p52 week 6

February 5th to 11th Target is my most favoritiest store! I love it. Most of my kids complain about going there too much. All except Dallen. He for some reason shares my love for target. Whenever we tell him we are going to a store, he will ask, "target?" When I tell him yes, he is so happy. When I tell him "no, we are going to the grocery store to buy food", he will cry the whole way that he wants to go to target. He likes to go to target and look at the yellow toys. It is a good match, since he and Bryleigh are my shopping buddies for the next few years. Hopefully I can keep up his expectations at target, so he still wants to go everyday! It helps me justify going every week, it's all for Dallen!

This picture makes me laugh. It so looks like she is cheering someone on, and saying "ya".

Bryleigh got her new bath seat for Christmas and she really likes sitting up and playing in the bath.

We have had some nasty sickness's going around our house. Rylan started us off with a bad cold. He came down with a icky cough, and itchy watery eyes and a running nose. He was pretty miserable. Then Dallen caught the cold and it turned into croup (again) for him. We still had a refill from the last time so once he got that medicine in him, it came out of his lungs and turned into the nasty cold that Rylan had. Bryleigh also got the cold, and I was so sure that she was going to get croup, but she never did! Bethany and Hannah also got the cold but much milder. Then we ended our sickness with a stomach bug. Rylan ended up throwing up at our friends house (I'm still sorry about that!) but then was fine. The girls both got upset tummy aches and came home from school one day because of it. But I think we are doing better now. It was a long two weeks of it all, and it makes you appreciate being healthy all the more!

p52 week 4

January 22nd to 28th

Have I mentioned that I love Mondays! They are a nice relaxing start to my week. I feel like it's a get ready for the week day. I usually try to stay home those days, do homework with the kids, laundry, clean a little and bake our snacks for the week. This Monday we had someone come look at our house around lunch, so we packed up and had lunch at the park. The kids loved it, and made me realize that I should really do that more for them.

and the big kids swinging! It was a fun day at the park!!
