Been a while...

since we last posted anything. We have been extremely busy, as always and I'm sure as everyone else has as well. The wife has her big event for work next Monday night, so once that is done she can breathe a little easier, until one other smaller "extra" event a couple of weeks later is over. After those are done, then maybe she can slow down some. My work has been busy as well. We finally got over a larger hurdle, and I will tell more later when I can. Needless to say, we are busy, and busy is good.

Jaxman is still getting up several times after we put him down at night. He just came in here for the second time and told me that God told him that I should tell him a story.....where he gets this, I do not know. Only time will tell what stories the little smiley one, Riley, will come up with. I think his attention to detail is sharper than his brother's, so no telling what tricks he has picked up that we have not seen yet. Another week is almost over, but I am sure we will be busy all weekend getting things ready for the event on Monday. A little prayer that all goes well....We will try not spread out the posts as far apart next time....

No more fever




Well, the fever has left but the runny noses, congestion and cough are here. We have officially all had the allergy junk. Riley is the last victim. This has been a super busy week and I am so excited about the weekend - hopefully we can get somethings done around the house. A few weeks ago we had some pictures of the boys taken. Here are a few.
Have a great weekend!!

103.9

That was the temperature reading last night with Jax. Riley's fever started about an hour and a half before Jax. Right before bath time we noticed Riley was just laying his head down and his eyes were glazed over. The Husband was headed to take Jax to bed when Riley woke up on me and started throwing up. So another bath and then we got Jax in Bed - that is when his fever started (102). Riley's fever stayed really high for about three hours and the same for Jax. The Husband and I stayed up rocking Riley and sleeping on Jax's floor for most of the night. Riley finally went to sleep and slept all night. Jax kept waking up so The Husband slept on the floor in his room half the night and I slept the other half. Now, Jax is crying because he thinks we should do that every night. He just came in our room saying he has a fever. The battles we have with this boy. Oh, great he woke Riley up. Please pray we all get some sleep tonight.

Daddy is famous

The husband has been published in many national publications (New York Post, Washington Post, New York Times, etc) in the last few years and recently he has been published about theory of Facebooks value and some other stuff that is way over my head. We are so proud of him!!!


Have a great weekend!!!

Teeth


Riley man has a mouth full of teeth coming in and they are really bothering him. He has his 4 top teeth and 3 bottom teeth but more of his bottom teeth are coming in. Everything goes in his mouth and he did not sleep well at all last night. Please pray that he gets more sleep tonight (and us). Jax is really growing up. Everyday I notice how mature he is getting (for a 3 year old). It is fun to watch him play with his brother now - they play really well most of the time :)
Here is a picture from last week of the boys destroying the closet

Easter 2010

This has been a busy long weekend. We were going to the zoo on Friday but the weather said we were going to be getting really bad weather so we went to see my parents instead. The day actually turned out to be beautiful. My brother and his family were also at my parents so we had a fun day playing outside in the pollen. The pollen has been horrible the last few days. On Saturday we got up and ran a few errands before going to the Easter egg hunt at our church. The boys had fun playing and hunting for eggs. Jax woke up from his nap with a head ache and fever so he laid around the rest of the day. He still had a little fever and a runny nose this morning so we did not take him to church to expose him to everyone. We had a fabulous lunch at the husbands parents house and now the boys are taking naps. Below are some pictures from this weekend. I have a video (actually I have several) but I have not found my video cord. I think I know who has it but I need him to tell me where he put it :) Have a great week!
