A Bloggy Makeover!

Well I finally gave my blog a little makeover!!! It is something I have been saying I was going to do for forever now. Special thanks to my friend Melissa how taught me how to change everything so I could break away from my boring old blog!! I am still wanting to work on a new header but will get to that later.

The BIG BooBoo

That is right Lillie is now sporting a little purple cast! Yesterday when I picked her up from kids day out she was kissing on her wrist and crying. By the time we got home she would not let me touch it or grab anything with it. I took her to see the family doctor yesterday where they did Xrays because it was starting to look a little swollen. They thought everything looked fine but when the doctor started moving her wrist she heard a clicking noise so she sent us on to the ortho doctor today where he saw a buckle fracture on her wrist. He turned and asked Lillie what color she wanted her cast to be! She has to wear it for two weeks to let it heal. So far she has done well and has not tried to take it off. She is proud of her booboo and has been showing it off! Lets just pray she keeps it on and doesn't use it as a weapon against Evan.

Just a little update

They call this the elevator! I saw them carrying books and toy around and thought they were taking them to my room but then saw them go to the guest bathroom and this is what I found! Evan told me they took the elevator to Chick-fil-a to play!


Since it has been awhile here are just some random pictures of the kids.

I will upload more tomorrow since blogger just went down on me

Evan Update

Evan's surgery went very well on Friday. I have to say I was a wreck before he went back. Just walking back to the pre-op area made me so nervous I broke down in tears. Then again when they came to tell us about putting him to sleep. Then when they came to get it to take him away. When he had tubes put in he was asleep when they took him so he didn't notice but this time he was awake and got scared when they started to wheel the bed away. Luckily he had a great nurse that picked him up and carried him and he got to take some of his trains with him!! We walked him as far as we could. I was surprisingly fine at that point! They gave him so goofy juice before he went back so Brad and I got a few good laughs with him being silly and trying to stay awake. His procedure only took about 40 mins. We were home by 10 am and all three took a much needed nap. After he woke up he was somewhat back to normal. By Sat he was almost 100%!

Say Goodbye to the Na-Na

stuffing them in
a little unsure of giving it up
A few weeks ago I decided that it was time for Lillie to get rid of her pacifiers. She only really wanted one when she was napping or at bedtime. But this never stopped her from sticking one in when she found one on the floor!! Lillie started calling them her na-na. I had heard of people taking their kid to Build-A-Bear and had them put their pacifiers in their animal. So I asked Lillie if she wanted to exchange her na-na's for a bear. She said yes so we gathered up all of the pacifiers around the house and headed early on Saturday morning. When we got there the machine was broken but they stuffed her dog (that is what she wanted) by hand. At the end they let her kiss all of her na-na's goodbye and put them in. She was a little unsure of putting the last one in! So we now have Na-Na dog or Na-Na Oscar as Lillie calls her! She has done pretty good without them. First few nights were a little ruff but after about 3 nights of her waking up wanting it in the middle of the night she is sleeping perfectly without it. She does have her moments when she will ask for her na-na but I will get her her dog. She did have one time that she tried to open up the dog to get one out!!! Lillie we are so proud of you, you are becoming such a big girl!

The front of Ella's bucket

Well after all of my Easter Buckets I have had several requests for buckets lately. Here are just a few that I have made lately. I am about to get started on Halloween since I have had people already asking for one!! I have a few more that are in the works that I will post when they are finished!

We will be back soon!

Sorry that I have not updated in forever but we are having problems getting Internet at our house! This is one joy of the move to the out skirts of town! I hope that we will get something figured out soon so that I can return to the blogging world. So stay tuned for a post sometime in the near future.

And please keep Evan in your prayers next Friday (27th). He will be having surgery at Baptist. It is an out patient procedure but it still makes me nervous that he has to have something done.
