FLU SEASON!?!?


Our precious girl is now snuggling up to her baby with her nice warm blanket in her bed sleeping (makes me want to go join her)....bless her little heart. I hope she's feeling back to her normal soon. I hate seeing her like this.

Tis the season. Kinzi is once again SICK!!! I thought we were through being sick for the year. (She was sick with a viral infection about 3-4 weeks ago and that lasted for a full week) I even got our Flu Shots early this year to avoid getting getting the flu. Well, it didn't work. The poor thing started getting sick again on Sunday as soon as we got home from church. With NO warning she is throwing up. She just can't get a break. At least this time there are no fevers, blisters in and on her month, swollen gums nor sore throats. This time she's been vomiting, not eating (of all things she wants it's a bottle with milk, the worst possible thing) nor can she get comfortable and hasn't been sleeping...and you know what that means...if she doesn't sleep, neither do you. There's nothing fun about having to watch a video at 4:30 A.M....and then deciding after 2 minutes it's not what she wanted and she wants to go back to bed. Then she's out. By that time I'm awake and it takes FOREVER to get back to sleep, and then the process starts all over again. But it's Wednesday and I think she's on the down side of things. She's starting to eat a bit more and she's finally starting to sleep. YEA!!!! She slept through the night last night. (oh I can't tell you how much I love that) I don't handle having to get up numerous times at night cleaning up vomit, then giving her a bath cuz we didn't catch it in time and then having to throw in a load of laundry with all the towels, sheets and pj's that ended up getting dirty. I've lost count at how many loads of laundry that I've done this week and I'm still not done.

Here she is a couple weeks ago with her sores....They were awful!!

(notice her chipped tooth...I have no clue where or when that happened)

Here she is on the couch either watching "The Letter Factory" or "The Little Playdates" she can get enough of watching these videos.

Kinzi and her Babies



As we were leaving for dinner last night with some friends Kinzi, as usual, couldn't leave without her babies. Her arms are barely long enough to hold both babies...she usually ends up dropping one. But heaven forbid we leave the house without them. She's obsessed them.

I finally did it!!

After months of telling myself I was going to start a blog I finally did it. It took selling our house and moving into a rental for me to get internet at home. Yes, you read correctly. Todd and I didn't have internet at home. We haven't for at least 3 years. I know what you're all thinking, how did we survive. We'll to tell you the truth, I'm not sure. But now that we have it at home (we've had it for the last 2 days) I can't believe we went 3 years without it. So now I've got to learn how to download pictures from my camera to my computer and then from the computer to this blog....no telling how long that's going to take. (Hopefully not 3 years)

So Todd and I sold our house. We closed on Monday. YEA!! I'm so glad that part is over, but now the task of finding a house is a little crazy. We've looked at so many houses over the last 3 months that I'm SOOOO sick of looking. But this house we're renting is so small that we've got to find something. We're on top of each other here.

Todd started a new job. He's the head assistant basketball coach at Salt Lake Community College. We're excited for him. It's a great change of pace and something different. And he likes it there so that's all that matters. I'm excited for him. The season starts on the 24th of October. What a great birthday gift for me....I hope he remembers. (I think putting it on the calender will help....I've just got to remind him to look at the calender)

Kinzi is doing great. She is into EVERYTHING. She's the happiest, most easy going baby EVER. I couldn't have asked for a better child. She has finally decided to take a liking to her baby dolls. We can't leave the house without them. She screams the whole time we give her a bath because she can't take them in the tub with her. Todd's not too happy about the attachment to the baby dolls. He's trying to get her to take a liking to the basketball he bought her for christmas last year....needless to say she's not to excited about it. But he's determined to have her LOVE basketball. Maybe one of these days she'll surprise him.

This is getting long....stay tuned for some pics. I'll try to figure out the picture thing soon and get some posted of Kinzi.
