Over The Rainbow

Yesterday Hope Avery and I watched Wizard of Oz. I LOVE this movie. I so want the blue ray. I love that my kids like to watch classic movies. So they are not really fond of black and whites but that is fine. I have been adding some of our favorite to the Netflix instant watch queue. The selection is not that big. I started with what Judy Garland and Shirley Temple movies they had. Today is a nice day out So I kicked Hope, Nathan and Alex out. So they are out practicing on the Heelies. Avery has 1 more dose of antibiotics left so tomorrow he gets to play outside thankfully. Joshua just does not want too. But he never does.
Tonight we are having the missionaries over or movie night. They are bringing a few things to watch. I will be making mini corn dogs with tater tots, Root beer floats and Ice cream cookie sandwiches.
Tomorrow I take Joshua to get his ultra sound of his Bladder and Kidneys. Oh the fun things!

Blowing in the Wind

We have been having high winds here. Honestly it is driving me nuts. Generally I have no problem with the wind. It helps clean the air ect ect. But in the Apt the wind makes so much noise. I can not open the windows due to the high pollen count and Nathans Asthma. I actually had to turn the air on last night. That did not make me very happy at all. Of course I set it at like 80. Our front room heats up so fast when every I use the oven.
Yesterday was an okay day. The kids getting on my nerves, HELLO when don't they. Poor things are stuck in the apt all on top of each other. Nathan and Avery could not go out side if they wanted to. Josh Alex and Hope just did not want to. So we went to the library. picked up a 2 dvds and a bunch of books. Hope picked up a kids cook book and will be making a full dinner by her self soon. Alex and Joshua got a few books on Greek Mythology. We ordered a few others. Then we were off to Wal-Mart to pick up Alvin & the chipmunks the squeakquel. It was really cute.
Today after doing the cleaning up I am going to call it a video game day. So it will be nice and peacefull. Joshua will be gone most the day for a scouting thing woohoo!!!

Track Break Day 2

Well 2 days in and I am already ready or them to go back to school. Joshua goes back on Monday but Alex, Hope, Nathan, and Avery do not go back until May. Currently only 3 of the kids are able to go outside to play. Of course they do not wish too. So we sit here in our tiny apt nearly on top of each other. I am trying to have thing planed to do but it is hard when Avery is still sick and the pollen count is too high for Nathan to go out. Tomorrow Joshua has a scout thing for most of the day. So that will be nice.
Yesterday we had movie day just sat around and relaxed. Last night the missionaries were here or our lesson. They will be back on Thursday and we are doing movie night with them they are bringing the Joesph Smith movie and something else, I will be making finger foods and root beer floats.

Another year nearly gone

Things I would love for my birthday.

One day of not cleaning cooking or having to tell/ask someone else to do it!

See I am not picky!!! I guess one you become a mom not much really matter anymore!

Hope is doing better

Well we have little or no fever this weekend. We went back to urgent care on Friday and they gave her antibiotics and did a new throat culture still not really sure what was going on. Yesterday we had the Bishop come over for a blessing. Today she has been up and running around let her go out side for a bit to play just o see how she would do. She still has a bit of a cough and sore throat. Tomorrow she goes back to school.

Miss Hopie

we are now on day 6 of hope being sick. She is still running a fever of 103. So far docs have ruled out strep and pneumonia. If she still has a fever tomorrow I will be taking her back to urgent care for the third time this week. I have no clue what is going on with her. But this is just too long the fever has to mean there is something. They are calling it an upper respiratory infection but have given her no antibiotics.

What a few weeks

This past weeks or so has just been trying on me. First I was not sure if Hope was allergic to nut or not. She kept having tummy aches after eating nuts and peanut butter. The doc appt was not fun when she discovered that she had to get bloodwork done. But it all came back normal so that was good. Then Alex starting throwing up with no other problems so back to the doc we went. He ended up missing 3 days of school for this. We had an xray done and I never heard back so I guess it was fine. Then Joshua was suspended from school for punching a boy. I guess they were just playing around and Josh asked the boy if he could punch him. When the boy did not respond he punched him. I took away scouts for that evening and the camping trip the following weekend. Was not happy about it but have to do what I have to do.
Avery has decided he does not want to clean his room make his bed or anything. So today I have decided to clean his room my way I have fill 2 large bags to take to savers and 1 bag of just trash and this has just been his toy boxes.
Tomorrow will not be that fun either I will be taking all 5 kids to the dentist, I know Nathan has a cavity and his teeth bother him do to sensitivity. Plus he just does not like the dentist and freaks out sometimes.
