My little man

Thomas had a Dr. Appt today. He is still our skinny little tall guy.
STATS:
35 inches- 97%
22 lbs 10 oz- 9%
46 cm head- 7%- still little. :)
So, his height is still tall, and he is still super skinny. And just so dang cute!
And poor little guy had double ear infections. :( I honestly thought he was so fussy bc I wouldn't give him his binkie...oops. But other than that, he is super healthy!

Fredette about it!

Well, the whole world had Jimmer mania for a while, so I thought I would join in on the fun. I didn't want to be left out.

Isaac's cousin Logan played on the BYU team and was a senior this year. It has been so much fun to watch the games and see him play. I actually knew all of their names too from watching so much, so it was fun to watch the games at home with Isaac and feel 'involved' sort of in a way. Odd huh, I had nothing to do with the team, but it just made me miss it. They were a great team.


Ethan got to go to the playoff games in Denver with Grandma and Papa. He was even on tv and Isaac and I were so excited to see him on it, and I am not even his mom, I think Roni and Shane were so thrilled. It was a fun week on facebook. ;) Anyway, Isaac took pictures and sent them to everyone, and I even video'd a little piece of him on the news. It was fun. And Logan had a great playoff season!!

Field trip!!

Ashley had a field trip at school. It was to the Park City fire department! Yay! Last year, McKenna couldn't go to her fire department field trip because she was sick, so we were so excited when Ashley's came up. Needless to say, we let McKenna stay home from school so that she could go too. :) And to top it off, Avery, McKenna's best friend didn't go last year either, because she was sick, which I had no idea either. So, her mom let Avery go too with her sister Holland, who is one of Ashley's great friends. :) We took Thomas over to Grandma's and the three girls and I went.
They had so much fun! First we talked with the firefighters, and then we got to walk through their housing quarters. Each had their own room which I was surprised about. Then we got to go see the trucks and walk through the ambulance. And then the kids got to spray the fire hose which was SO exciting! Afterwards we went back to the first room for more Q&A. After being at the fire house and realizing what my kids didn't know, we decided that that night for family home evening, we were talking about fire safety. :) Just simple things:
Stop, Drop, and Roll
911- for emergency
our outside location in case we need to escape the house
feel the door/handle incase there is a fire before you open it
window escapes

Just so many simple things. They sent us home with little coloring books, so they had lots to color and awesome red hats to wear! Yay for field trips. :)

After the field trip, I dropped the kids off at Tanna's so I could go back to work. She kept Thomas for the morning. I just thought this picture was super cute of the girls running with their hats. And then my handsome boy. :)

Snoop dogs!

Angel had her litter. March 16th. I was at work. I so wanted to be there when she had the puppies. I know this probably sounds gross, but it is just so amazing! I wanted to just see maybe one...just to witness an animal birth. I think it's a miracle. But on the flip side, I was so glad I wasn't there. I didn't want to do it alone, and what that was, we had no idea, but none the less, I would've preferred Isaac be there. I asked him to video tape it and he said NO WAY! hehe,
Ok, so here is our conversation.
1:49 pm 5 puppies!
Ok, so I thought they were done. I think we both did. Neither of us had any idea of what actually happened. Two of my friends at work said.. "you just wait, she isn't done yet!" I thought they were crazy, but sure enough...here it goes.
2:32 pm 6 puppies
2:56 pm 7 puppies
4:50 pm 9 puppies!
Crazy right!? Wow! We thought definitely that this was it.

So, I got home from work and the kids were more than excited to show me the puppies!! The house was stinky. Luckily she cleans up everything and we don't have to deal with it, it was just stinky from like... the birth stuff I guess. Even though she cleaned up, it still stunk. Anyway, we walked downstairs and looked at the cute teeny puppies. Isaac counted again, and there were 10!!! 10 puppies! As Ann Jackson (Isaac's cousin) put it on facebook, "Holy Moly!" No kidding. Ahh! I was ok with 5. Semi ok with 6. 7 was really pushing, and 9, oh dear! 10! Wow! Just crazy!

There are 8 black like Samson and 2 sable like Angel. The 2 sable and 4 of the black ones are female, and the rest of the 4 black are males. They're cute. They grow really fast. They're already getting bigger and are starting to get some different color to them. They're pretty cute...but I still can't wait to get rid of them! ;)
The biggest problem has been Angel. She is constantly crapping in our house. Yeah, it's as nasty as it sounds. Agh! Disgusting. I hate it. Isaac read that diahrrea is a side affect of pregnancy, but I still get so mad! He says I wouldn't be able to help it either if I just had 10 puppies, but as you can tell, I'm not that sympathetic. ;) It just seriously infuriates me! Agh! But other than that, she cleans up everything of the puppies. So.. so far, we don't have to do much with them, so it's nice. They're cute.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

McKenna made a trap for the leprechaun for St. Patrick's Day. Daddy helped her. So cute!!


He left the kids some fancy cookies and cute little green froggies from the bath. And even left a trail of money as he tried to run off! Silly leprechaun. Isaac thought that "he" should be the one to clean it up, but Daddy and the kids cleaned it up while Mommy took pictures. :)
