Carter's First Birthday

Well, my baby boy is 1 today. It's crazy to see him grow and really see him learning. It was like one day something snapped in his mind and he realized he could do so much more damage then he already was doing. He has been a little hard to keep up with. I am so happy to have him in our family. He is so much fun when he is being silly and makes the cutest schrunchy faces ever. He is my little lover boy and I love his kisses. I am going to enjoy it now cause it probably wont last long!!! Carter also shares this day with Jesse's Dad (papa Bill) so here is a picture of them for their b-day dinner.
Your Dad and I love you carter and I know your sisters do too. We hope you had a great First Birthday!

Snow

So i have not updated in a while because really we have not done a single thing in weeks. I think I am just so busy doing our everyday stuff like laundry and cleaning up and cooking and baths and just STUFF that we really dont do any thing.
I have however started on the process of a new schedule(hopefully) I have registered Ashlyn and Lexi for a Tiger Tots program at the local High School so 4 days a week from 11:15 to 1:50 I will be down to just two kids! In that time I am hopeing to get to the gym and get in a good workout. or do shopping and that kind of stuff! then in August Ashlyn starts real school!!
But in the mean time...we had a real good snow a few weeks ago. My first mistake was letting the kids go out and play. It was a mistake because we were not fully prepared with snow gear. We have some stuff but it was not enough so the next day we went and bought everything we needed for the kids and Jesse and I, but it was too late. the kids were already sick. I really dont think much of it, just thought it was a normal cold but Lexi had a fever of 103.5 so we took her to urgent care and found out she had pneumonia. The next morning I took the other 3 kids in to be check because they had all had the same symptoms. so the results were Ashlyn has pneumonia and and ear infection and carter has an ear infection and Kimber is just fine. Kimber is sleeping alot b ut I think that has to do with other stuff like growth spurts and such. So we have added dubble time of doing nothing. Ashlyn and lexi sleep alot and just watch movies allllll day long. All I can say is thank goodness for my books on my ipod or I would have to listen to all the barbie movies all day!! so here are a few pictures of our snow and the girls sleeping since that is all I have to show for the past little while.
