Sandon got his tonsils out!!!!

Sandon had his tonsils out on Tuesday February 1o. He is doing really well considering all that can happen. He hasn't thrown up, bled, or cried too much. The first day was the hardest because of the anesthesia that makes kids groggy and whiny. He was up the next day playing video games. He was really a good boy!!! The nurses kept coming up to me in the recovery room and telling me how cute he was and how he was telling them all about mario and his video games. (he was wearing his new mario pajamas)

In the waiting room waiting for the nurses to call his name and go back to get ready for surgery.

All done with the surgery and in the recovery room.

He wasn't too happy when he woke up from the anesthesia.

He kept holding his breath from the pain and his oxygen saturation monitor kept beeping and his oxygen levels would drop so here is a picture of him with the oxygen mask in front oh his mouth.

Here is sandon's IV stuck in his foot and wrapped in red. He didn't like it so much when he woke up and could feel something on his foot.

Doug at Sundance

Doug drove for Sundance film festival again this year, and was responsible for driving around T.I (the rapper) and all of his crew. Doug got to go to the concert and see him perform along with some other celebrities like Jewish reggae musician Matisyahu who Doug drove around last year. Matisyahu remembered Doug from last year and got him and some friends into a couple of clubs. Pretty cool huh!!

Guess Who Is Potty Trained???

I decided 2 weeks ago it was time to potty train Raleigh....She would always go #2 on the potty so why not let her do both. 2 weeks ago while going to the bathroom she didn't want to put a diaper back on so I got out some panties for her and she hasn't worn a diaper since. She has only had 1 accident since (my fault for not helping her get her jeans down in time). It's nice not to have to change diapers. My princess is growing up!! I thought it would be awhile longer since Sandon didn't potty train till right after his 3rd Birthday, but I will take 2 1/2 anyday over 6 more months of diapers.

Christmas Morning

We had a wonderful Christmas this year and hope that every one else did as well. I love the Christmas holiday and all the family traditions that go along with it, plus my first born shares the same birthday as our savior. It doesn't get better than that.

Family Fun in the Snow

So it snowed another 8 inches or so today!!! I had to go to work today so it kind of sucked to drive in it. 15mph the whole way home...better safe than sorry I say. Doug, the kids and I made a snowman together and we had a few snowball fights. We built forts like the Spongebob snowball episode...you know what I mean if you've seen that one....We had so much fun, it makes you feel like a kid again :)

Treats for Sandon's Preschool

Sandon's class celebrated his Birthday on the last day of school before Christmas break (18th). Here are some of the treats that I made for his class......So easy and so much fun!!

Christmas Sugar Cookies

So I had to take a picture of the kids decorating Christmas cookies. Sandon helped roll the dough and use the cookie cutters this year cause he is such a big boy now!! 10 days left and he will be 5 years old....WOW....I think more of the sprinkles and frosting ended up in the kids mouths rather than on the sugar cookies. Good times :)
