Sick again

Yep that is right Ian is sick again. Friday he started running a fever well by Saturday night his fever had gotten up to 103.5 so I took him to the ER. He has something called Pharyngitis. I will be so glad when my little man gets better and stays that way. In the past month he has had a eye infection, flu, and now this. I guess you can also add ear infection to that because when he had the flu the doctor also said it looked like he had a ear infection on top of the flu. He can't go to school until he has not had a fever for 24 hours and I took his temp just a few min ago and it is like 99.1 so we will see where that goes. I have never had to take Ian to the doctor so much. He usually only goes to the doctor maybe like once a year if that but here we are now going to the doctor 3 times in just a months time. Time to get well Ian and stay that way PLEASE!!!

Seven Layer Taco Dip

I found this recipe on allrecipes it sounds so good. I just love dips and especially anything that has the word taco in it. I think I will try this recipe next time we have a party somewhere like at church or something. Some people leave out the lettuce because it wilts fast so I might do that. Well if anyone has made this or makes this let me know how it turns out.

I Still Have My Hair :)

Well I decided to take the kids pictures for our Christmas cards. I knew it would be a task and at least 1 of the boys would not be into it. Well it was Bradon that was really not wanting to take the pictures and gave me a very hard time.

Well After all these pictures and many more I got 1 yes 1 picture I could use. So this is our Christmas card this year.

Then I just got some of them alone. I must say my little boys are just way to cute!!

Christmas Decorations

Well this year I got up all my Christmas decorations up fast. Ian would not leave me alone until all the decorations were out. Every year I try to get a new ornament for the kids. I guess I must have slipped some years because I can't find 2007 or Ian's 2004 ornaments. This is our tree this year. I say every year I am going to get a new tree but as soon as Christmas rolls around I decide that this tree can last another year.

My ornaments that I try to get the boys every year I like them to have some kind of meaning for that year. Really I try to get a ornament for something they are into for that year.

Ian's Ornament for this year is deer antlers. I seen this at Walmart and knew I had to get it since this year was his first year to go hunting.
