Friends and Fun

Sandon and Raleigh's best buds Avery and Luke came over today and played in the pool and decorated cupcakes. Good times :)

summer Fun

Summer is hard to keep track of posts. I finally quit my job and will be finished up by next week. Now I will only be on-call for working. I'm sad to give up my job and will miss the people I work with as well as adult conversation, but I feel I need to be at home now more than ever with my three little ones. We have been cooped up in the house the last week since Piper has been ill. She is now finally starting to get back to her normal self and will have further testing at the end of the month at primary children's hospital to check out her kidneys. Some of these pics are out of order but hey at least I got them on the blog. Enjoy all the pics.

Remember the old Slip and Slide???

My poor sick little baby

Piper watching a Linkin park concert on TV with the family. You have to like this band if you're in our family, so she was being initiated.

Who knew that $10 would buy great fun for days to come. The pool is tiny but the kids absolutely love it!!!

Skin Allergy Testing

So after waiting for 6 long weeks just to get the kids into the Allergist.......This was the result below of their skin allergy testing. This was Raleigh's first time having the testing done. As you can see she was severly allergic to everything they tested her for which was.....Every nut imaginable, dogs & cats, trees, weeds, and grass. Sandon was retested for all nuts and came up allergic to all of them. The bigger the welt the more allergic they are to the item. I'm so glad I took their pediatrician's advice and kept both of them away from all nuts. Now it is confirmed that both are allergic to tree nuts and Peanuts.

#10 is a cashew nut, this was the initial nut that she had her reaction to when she was 18 months.

#5 is peanut, you can see how huge the welt is.

Visiting Mom's work

The kids and I made a stop off at my office to pick some things up and take Piper in to visit. The kids were being so cute so I had to take a photo op with the cell phone.

Retro

Raleigh has a big pink flower light on the wall next to her bed that we got from IKEA for reading books. Raleigh and I were playing on her bed, which is the bottom bunk, and decided we would take pictures of each other in the dark with my cell phone. This is what happened to the pictures with her pink light on. Kinda cool huh.

Diaper Change

Raleigh always wants to change the baby's diaper and always helps me and asks if she can do it all by herself. I decided I would let her do it herself and had to take a picture of it when she was done. Not too bad! I did ask her to go check on Sandon and see what he was doing so I could fix it. She never knew.

ECLIPSE

A group of us girls got together for a special early time showing of "Eclipse". It was a package deal with bowling, dinner. shirts. popcorn drinks and movie at 7:30 instead of midnight. It was a lot of fun. Ahhh what us girls do for Edward and Jacob. Thanks Ang for putting this together!!
