Halloween 2009

Today was a great day! We started by carving the rest of our pumpkins...

This is Sable's 3 eye 2 nose 1 mouth with 1 tooth pumpkin

Her cyclops pumpkin

Lyndall's pumpkin

The pumpkin he painted, it had froze and thawed, the top was getting mushy so we didn't want to open it up

Here are mine that Steve had gutted for me

Now to the costumes...

Sable was Little Bo Peep

Lyndall was Albert Einstein

My nephew Codie was Dracula and came trick or treating with us

Here was the Halloween snow man that the boys made

And Sable posing like a little ham next to it

Then of course the kids went trick or treating and brought home some good candy loot.

Snow Day!

It all started on Tuesday night, continued through Wednesday where my kids school district was one of the few that did not close. But here we are on Thursday and its an official snow day. The kids are so excited to go play in the snow with all their friends.

Sable decided to start by laying in it... Lyndall found a huge icicle, I had to ask him to please stop licking it ewe...

Bernie couldn't wait to go run throughout the yard, he loves the snow...

Peanut was just as excited as Bernie but didn't last very long without her coat.

This is her pick me up, pick me up!

Good Job Sable!

I'm so proud of Sable for getting a good citizen award! We missed the ceremony on Tuesday because of her being sick, oh well maybe next time.

6 Days & 2 Teeth

So this past week and a half had not been the most fun. It all started on Wednesday the 14th. I had received a call from Lyndall's teacher that Lyndall was complaining about his head hurting and how he just didn't seem like himself and that he had been to the nurses office twice already and they sent him back to class both times, so I told her I would be there soon anyway to drop Sable off and then I could take a look at him. When I got there I asked the office lady if she could call Lyndall to the office for me, because he had called complaining about his head hurting. As I'm talking to her the nurse sticks her head out and says she already checked him he's fine and that his temperature was only 99* and that's why she sent him back to class. When Lyndall came in I looked at him and had decided that he needed to go home, his eyes were red and glossy, and of course mothers instinct kicks in and says ya he looks bad. He had also sat out for recess that day, he NEVER does this! So on Thursday he seemed OK so he went to school, but on Friday he was about to leave for school, I took one look at him and told him your not going to school go lie down. I took his temperature and it was 102.5*. By Saturday he was better, that's my Lyndall, never sick for long.

On Saturday we went shopping with my mom, about three hours into it I looked at Sable and said we needed to get home now, she wasn't looking so good. When we got home I checked her temperature and it was 102.9*. Later that night her temperature got higher and she was throwing up, coughing, and her throat was hurting. She only threw up the one night, but kept the temperature up and down between 101* - 103.9*. It hit 103.9* three times and that was the only time we gave her any Tylenol, and a half dose at that. Finally its Friday and her temperature is normal and she is going back to school for 1 day this week. She is so excited to do that. We have cookies for the class for snack being that her birthday is in 2 days.

That was the 6 day part, well during the 6 days she also happen to loose her 2 front teeth.

National Pysical Fitness Award

This is Lyndall's 3rd National Physical Fitness Award that he has earned while at Stukey. He is such a fit boy that this really doesn't surprise me, however I am happy all the same.

WoW!

I got a nice note from the teacher about Lyndall! Maybe there is still hope for the boy.
