Antibiotics

Connor and Makenzie are both on antibiotics. The Thursday we were leaving for Boise, Connor started complaining that something was in his ear. Not long after, he started screaming and continued to scream for 2 hours. Jaron looked in his ears and confirmed an ear infection. We took him to the doctor, the doctor then checked Makenzie out who was still cranky and had just finished her round of antibiotics from a previous ear infection. Well the amoxicillion did not take care of it. So now she is on her second round of antibiotics. Two kids with ear infections, NOT fun!!! ... My blessing that day was a good friend who took Lilian for me and watched her all afternoon while I ran the other two around and then packed for our trip to Boise. Thanks Kristi!

Gilbert Creek Park

Today was such a busy day. It started out taking Lilian to dance class at 9:30am. Lilian loves it! I stay with the kids for the hour dance class. Luckily they both did great today. Usually Connor is bored out of his mind. When we got home, I proceeded to wash every ones bedding (really needed to be done!) and two loads of laundry. Vacuum house, make lunch and clean the kitchen. Nurse Makenzie, and spoon feed her. Lets just say I had no time to myself and the poor kids had to help me with chores around the house. We had a lot to catch up on. Finally though, after Makenzie's afternoon nap, we took a bike ride, (I pushed Makenzie in the stroller) to Gilbert Creek Park. The kids did so great! They listened, stayed by me and had no big falls! The weather was beautiful. I sat in the shade with Makenzie. She loved it! She kept climbing over my legs to grab the snacks we brought. The kids enjoyed playing with another little 8yr old girl that happened to also be at the park. I enjoyed reading the Ensign while the kids played.  

Aunt Rebecca found a way to get Connor to smile for the camera. Just tell him to laugh! Works every time. Thanks!

My Seven month beautiful baby!! She is so fun!





Makenzie sits up so well! She is ready to crawl. She gets up on all fours and rocks. Today she went forward once, but then she scooted backwards. She moves backwards great.

Lilian went across all by herself. She was so proud of herself.

 

 

Ever since birth, Makenzie has sucked on her top lip. It is the cutest thing ever! These are pictures of her sucking her top lip.

 

Boise Road Trip

We are crazy! We left our home at 6:30pm Thursday night to drive to Boise, Idaho. It actually went great. The kids fell asleep by 8:30 and slept the entire way. It was wonderful! Usually I hear whining the whole time. "I'm hungry, thirsty, when are we going to get there, etc.. " So it was so nice to drive with quiet. Jaron drove until about 12am. I drove until about 2:30am. Jaron drove us to his parents and pulled in around 5am.
This was the view as we left Grants Pass,OR. We love the bbeautiful rainbows in Oregon.

We took out the middle row of seats and made a bed with foam pads and pillows and blankets. It was so comfy!

Our trip was wonderful. We enjoyed visiting with Jaron's parents and siblings. We were able to see our niece Eden be blessed at church on Sunday. We left Sunday night at 8:30pm and drove all night again. Pulled into Grants Pass around 5:30am. Jaron was exhausted. We slept our Memorial Day away. The kids are really missing their cousins. Hopefully we will see them again soon. Sorry for the lack of pictures, the whole trip I only took these few in the car.
