We're still here!

I know it's been a while but that just means we've been super busy. The past couple of weeks it seems like we've just been go, go, going. On Wednesday, February 14th, (Happy Valentine's Day!!) Rhett had to fly out to California for his yearly Title Officer training. So the kids and I were on our own for three days. We had a Valentine's Day party to go to with our MOMS club and all the kids got to exchange Valentine cards. We didn't stay long because the Monkeys were EXTREMELY grumpy. We had about two weeks of nothing but total grumpiness!! On Friday, February 16th, Aunt Tammy and Angela flew down to visit for a few days. The Monkeys and I drove to Phoenix to meet them, then went to lunch with there next door neighbor, Zach. Over the weekend, we went to Nagits (gymnastics) on Saturday and the Deer Farm on Monday. I got to get our with "the girls" and do a little shopping and have some "Me" time. I took Aunt Tam and Angh back to Phoenix on Tuesday while the Monkeys stayed with some friends. The whole rest of the week we had something to to everyday: Wednesday was Nagits, Thursday was Recipe Club (with MOMS Club) and Friday we had Dr. appointments.
The Dr. appointment was our two year check up (almost 2 months later because the Dr. is so busy). Everyone is doing well and are typical 2 year olds. Cameron weighs 29.5 lbs and is 34-1/2" tall, Izaac is also 29.5lbs and is 34" tall. Zoe is still the petite on at 24.5lbs and 33 inches tall.
That's all the updates for now. Keep checking back for more trials and tribulations of "Three Little Monkeys".

A Trip to see Granma

Two days later and I'm still trying to recover from a short overnight trip to Monticello, Utah to visit with Granma Peggy. Granma was back in the States for a week and needed to get her "baby fix" so we agreed to meet her halfway (between CO & AZ). We stayed at the ONLY hotel that had an indoor pool for the kids to swim in. They had a great time!!! Being the "off" season, there was hardly anybody else in the hotel so the kids could pretty much run up and down the halls and not disturb anyone. Of course, the "fimming cool" as Izaac would say, was the best part of the stay. We played in the "cool" for about an hour then had a heck of a time getting them out. We went for pizza and one of the three restaurants in town and again, there was hardly anybody there so the kids ran amuck. All in all, a good time was had by all, but hotel stays are hard on mom because I can't sleep in the same room as those monkeys. Granma heads back to the "hamma's" (another Izaac word) today and we wish her a safe trip. We love you Granma, tell Granpa "Hi!".

Better Safe Then Sorry

Today stated out the same as any other day except for when Zoe gets out of bed and starts complaining the she has a "boo boo". She kept grabbing at her pj's like maybe she had something poking her so I took off ther 'jams and nothing. She started walking around and she was limping and favoring her left foot. She would only walk a couple of steps then want me to "help me" or "hold me" so I ended up carrying her around the house all morning. The top of her food was a little swollen and she wouldn't let me touch her foot so I thought I would just let her be for a little while. We had playgroup, so we went to that and the poor little thing either sat on the couch or had Mommy "hold me" the whole time. I could tell she really wanted to play but it hurt too much to walk on it. So I called the Dr. and they were able to get us in late this afternoon.

We went to the Dr. and she looked at the foot and tryed to touch it, but Zoe likes Drs. SO much, she threw a fit!!! Next we were sent down to radiology to have "pictures of our bones" (that's what I had to tell Zoe they were doing) and you would have thought some one was pulling her teeth. She cried and scream, but a soon as the two ladies were done, she waved to them and said "bye bye" in her sweet little voice. Back upstair to the Dr. There is no break or fracture so it's probably just a sprain or a severe bruise. How she got it? We'll never know!!! So now, she's limping around the house asking for Mom or Dad to "hold me". It sounds very sad, but it is VERY cute watching her limp around the house. Dr. said she'll be good as new in a day or two.
