The Toothless Wonder

Abby is proud to announce that her two front teeth have fallen out! Really there was no pulling allowed. She waited until they fell out on their own. Her smile looks a little funny but I love it anyway.

Winter Fun....sort of

Well we have had a very interesting January. we started out the month with Madelyn sick with pneumonia. She first got sick around Christmas and we ended up taking her to the hospital on Christmas night. They gave her IV antibiotics and sent us home with more for her to take over the next 8 days. On New Years day we had to take her again to the hospital with back pain. We didn't really get any answers on why she was having pain but the x-ray showed that the infection in her lung was not getting any better. Well the next week I took her in for a follow up with our doctor and he ordered another x-ray. This time the x-ray showed that she was building up some fluid around the infection so we admitted her to the hospital here in Price for three days and then she spent a day and a half at Primary Children's Hospital. They sent her home on yet another round of antibiotics and we are to go in for another x-ray when she is done with that round. So we are all hoping for a clear x-ray this week. Poor Maddie she was a trooper. She had blood drawn and IV's put in and taken out so many times that it made me cry. But they did give her lots of presents because she was in the hospital on her birthday. She is home now and doing well, she didn't ever really act sick except right at the first. But she is glad to be home and back to school.
So here are some pictures from this month. I didn't have my camera with me to take any pictures of Madelyn in the hospital but we did go sledding at my parent's house and we have had lots of snow this week so the girls have been out playing. Thomas likes to go out and play too but he doesn't ever stay out very long.

Many happy returns

We started this year off with a bang. Medelyn got pneumonia over the Christmas Holiday and had to go to the hospital. She was given IV antibiotics twice and then we had her on antibiotics for another 8 days. Hopefully she will be better soon. we spent Christmas in Layton at Grandma and Grandpa Fawcett's house. We got to see Bryce, Richelle, James and Matthew. We did have a good Christmas even though Thomas, Richelle, Madelyn and James were all very sick. I didn't get any pictures with all the sick kids to look after but hopefully grandma or Paige did.
After we got home from Grandmas Katy, and Abby both got sick. Now Collin and I are sick but that is life right?
This week the kids are back in school (yeah) and Thomas turned two. He got a big wheel bike and a guitar. Thomas really loves to dance and play the air guitar so we thought he would enjoy a guitar that really plays music for him. He was pretty happy. Next week is Madelyn's birthday and we are looking forward to a visit from Grandma and Paige.
