Adventures of the Baxters: A month of sickness and daddy gone

We love our new house!!

The boys loving playing in the back yard and having a room big enough to play in.

Reading the New Era.

The boys have gotten into hockey!

They love it and loving playing with Zack.

Here is one of our ultra sounds from January.
You can see her mouth open and eye ball.
The eye ball looks kind of scary.

Zack got a day off from his rotation, so we headed to the zoo.
Little did we know that everyone was headed to the Zoo.
It was crazy busy because it was a holiday.
But the boys both still loved it!

After the zoo the boys were miserable! They both had low grade fevers and were not feeling well. I had Zack take a peak inside of their ears and he said it looked like they both had ear infections. So we took them to the children's urgent care. We were there for over 3 hours and so ready to be done and go home and go to bed. Zack had to travel to Prescott in the morning at 5 a.m. and only got a couple hours of sleep.

While Zack was on his away rotation in Prescott my late Christmas present arrived.

We had a month full of sickness. Aj's ear infection never went away with the medication he was on. Then a couple days after Tallin was off his medication his ear infection came back. Let's just say 4 whole weeks of having sick kids and being pregnant with your husband only home on weekends was hard.

While the boys were playing outside Tallin was running really fast in the rocks and tripped and fell on his chin. He got a good gash in his chin from the rocks.

Tallin LOVES bagels. That is what he always wants for breakfast.

The boys love the ball pit that AJ got for his birthday from grandma and papa B.
Lets just say mom is not a big fan of picking them up all over the house.

This little guy loved his ice cream sandwich.

Saturday's are probably the only days that I actually make a big breakfast for everyone.

Tallin was so excited about his big boy bed.

The boys love going to the library.
Tallin is such a little book worm and loves to read!
He takes after his dad! I am not the biggest reader.

we got this cute new table from Ikea and I love it!
The boys always want to sit at it to eat.

Man I am a sucker for little boys in church clothes.

Off to church we go.

We decided to head to the park one day after naps.
I picked the wrong park and time to go.
All of the school aged kids were at the park and half of the park was under construction.
I was so bummed, but the boys still had fun.

Tallin loves playing Dr.
He is so cute when he does his check ups.

I went to check on AJ before I went to bed and found him like this.
It was too funny to not take a picture and save it, even though it's blurry.

We love joy school and Tallin loves his friends.

We learned about school buses this day and made them as our craft.
Even AJ loves joy school.

AJ was having a rough night and the only way he went to sleep was if he cuddled daddy in bed.
Of course daddy couldn't stay awake too.

This is were you will find AJ when he doesn't get something he wants or his way.
He is already in his terrible two's and hes not even two yet. Oh Boy!!

AJ brought Zack Tallin's underwear and wanted him to put them on him.
It was so funny, but he was really proud of himself.

We had a fun Saturday filled with yard work.
The owners didn't really trim up all of the bushes when we moved in, so we got to work and did it.

AJ picked up the clippers and tried copying what daddy was doing.
Don't worry I was watching him really careful.

We had a really windy night in January and our canopy flew over the fence.

The was the aftermath in the morning.

We had to put weights on it so it wouldn't keep blowing to the street.

This is when Tallin's ear infection came back.
Our thermonitor was not working and said he only had a 99.9 fever and when I got to the Dr. it was 104. Talk about feeling like the worst parent ever. I might of cried a little when I heard what it was because I felt so bad.
