New Year's Resolution

My New Year's resolution is to keep up on my blog. So far not doing well but will start from this point forward...I will attempt to blog at least once a week to keep people updated on the family!

what is new...the kids are growing up too fast. Our dog is at the vet right now attempting to find out what is wrong with her and pat and I have our first real vacation coming up in February!

I will upload pictures by the end of the week and update on our dog, Molly!

Still not doing well keeping up on blogging!




It has been over a month since my last blog. I just don't know where the time goes!




Gavin's surgery went well. He was off daycare for a week and talked very funny for awhile but is pretty much back to normal now! There were a couple rough days but we made it and I think he will do much better now!




Abby has been a handful lately. She seems to always want what she can't have. If she is home she wants to go to our friends house, when she is there she wants to be home,etc. And she is AWFUL at bedtime lately...she fights it and comes up with every excuse possible to not go to bed!




here are some pictures from the kids night of painting!

Gavin is having surgery

Gavin is having his tonsils & adenoids removed on November 3rd. I am a little nervous becuase last time he went in to have ear tubes put in they had a hard time waking him up and his dad also has issues with being put to sleep. I also hope he does okay with the surgery...it seems like such a scary thing for a 3 year old to go through but I am very optimistic that once they are taken out he will start to feel much better!

I keep reminding myself that this is a pretty minor procedure compared to what some of my friends children have had to go through so if they can do the big procedures we can make through a small one!

more illnesses

Gavin was sick over the weekend and his tonsils are huge so we are taking him back to the ENT on Wednesday! wish us luck! I am pretty sure he will be having his tonsils and/or adenoids out!

Abby's ears are also still draining so she is back on ear drops but I am guessing she will be going back to the ENT very soon!

Maybe once all these health issues are taken care of they will sleep through the night!!! wishful thinking for me!! :)

Pumpkin Carving!
















Last weekend we had friends over to carve pumpkins. The kids had a lot of fun (along with the adults!)










Gavin actually put his hands inside the pumpkins this year and Abby was very stubborn and insisted she do hers all by herself. so with very little assistance she cut out her own pumpkin face!

Meet Molly!




We picked up Molly our new puppy on Sunday and then made the four hour drive back home! Her father is my best friends dog and the mother is another friend of ours from Rice Lake area. Molly did better on the ride home than the kids did! My children are just not good travelers!




so far things are going pretty good...Abby runs screaming anytime Molly comes near her and Gavin likes to pick her up! She tolerates it very well! Yesterday in the rain she didn't want to go potty outside and preferred the living room carpet but we made her stay outside until she went and that seemed to do the trick!
