Wow! Wow! Wow!

There was a special visitor at the PX yesterday. Austin and I headed up there to meet Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!

There he is!



There's that goofy grin we've all come to love!



Nice to meet you Wubbzy!

Abigail stayed home while we went to see Wubbzy. I knew that she would have freaked out, so just Austin and I went.

"My puppy"

Abigail sure has changed her mind about Lexi. When we first got the dog she wouldn't even let us put her down near the dog. Now she goes around hugging and kissing on the dog while calling her "My puppy".

Mother's Day weekend

Last Saturday started out with a trip to Lowe's to gather stuff for the yard. Abigail and I headed to Lowe's while the boys headed to do some other errands.

When Abigail and I got home, I was surprised with some flowers that the boys had picked up.









They even picked out a balloon!

The girls stayed home to work in the yard while the boys went to our friends house to help with a fence. Once we got the yard work done, Abigail and I headed over to our friends house with the pool in the back of the car.


I love Austin's face in this picture!







Good one of Abigail



Not too bad for Austin



And I've lost their attention



The boys were playing with rollie pollie bugs



And the little girl was kissing her Daddy



I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day weekend!

Mother's Day :: by Austin

I had lots of fun stuff waiting for me yesterday when I picked Austin up from daycare.

The first was this tea pot with "Tea for Two"


"A cup of tea for Mommy and me"


The tea pot was in this cute little envelope decorated by Austin


This cute little thing was in his back pack from school



The saying reads:


"My dirty little fingerprints I've left on every wall"
"And on the drawers and tabletops, I've really marked them all"
"But here are some that won't rub off; I'm giving them to you"
"Because I'm thankful to have a mom that's just like you!"


"Happy Mother's Day"


"I love you!"


This is one of my favorite things about being a Mom. I love sweet little hand made things like this!

Alright, alright!

So, we've been a little busy lately! And of course I can't remember everything that's happened since the last time I blogged. I guess I need to update more often!

Last Thursday Austin had surgery to have his third set of tubes placed in his ears. A few weeks back he had a hearing test done at his ENT. He had some mild hearing loss in his right ear and his ear drum was falling back into his ear. (Probably not the best way to describe it, but that's all I can come up with at the moment) His ENT wanted to place the tubes again so his ear drum could get some air behind it and to improve his hearing. Of course he did great and was back to bouncing on the bed by mid afternoon.

For the days he was at school during the month of April, he received all blue smiley faces! Blue smiley faces mean excellent behavior! Woo hooo! Way to go Austin!



So, what's new with Abigail? Where do I start with the little bossy bugger? She's now talking in full sentences and I can tell it won't be long before she talks all the time. She still loves shoes!



Abigail happens to be home today because of a possible ear infection. She's headed to the doctor later this morning to be looked at.

Now on to my third child, the dog! Lexi is growing at the speed of lightning. I just took her to the vet yesterday for her booster shots. She weighed in at 30.2 lbs. She officially weighs more than Abigail and has about 5 more pounds before she catches up to Austin!

We're getting ready for our big trip to Michigan before Michael leaves. I'm sure all the grandparents are just as excited as we are about seeing everyone.
