HaPpy BirThDaY O!

Come on bud! It is not THAT scary!
There you go! Takin' after your Mommy!

One year old yesterday! You are a sweet angel. I love the way snuggle and want to be held by someone when ever possible. You love your small doggie blanket and carry it around in your mouth. You still like a binkie and we do not mind. You are finally sleeping past 6 in the morning. It happened a few weeks ago and it happened over night. Lovin it! You can sign "more", "eat", "dog", and "sleepy". You say "Ugh Oh", "DaDa", and "I love you". No "Mama" yet, but "I love you." That seems a little backwards. You are a fabulous eater and do not turn anything away, including brussel sprouts. Two top teeth and three bottom make for a very happy smile which we see all day long. You are a skinny mini. Very long but skinny. It is hard to find clothes long enough for your legs but still stay on your bottom. We love you O. Thanks for bringing joy and happiness to our family and for putting up with your brothers. Happy Birthday Big Baby Boy! We adore you!

BOO!

This is not a scary boo for Halloween. Nope. This is a BOOOOO to Swine Flu. Yep. Halloween was a bust this year. I dressed up as a victim to the piggy pox. Only, I did not dress up. Alan left for Puerto Vallarta and within 24 hours, it hit. I took the Relenza instead of Tamiflu because our insurance paid for it. Well, minus the $60 co pay. After a few days I was only getting sicker. Back to the Dr. where they took me off it and now I am functioning much better. Alan came home right in time for Halloween but was also sick. However, his was not the piggy pox. He overdosed on the motion patches. He still took the boys to the Utah Game. Yes. They wanted to go there instead of trick or treating. ?????? Whatever. I spent the night home with O and tried to get some rest. O never even dressed up for his first Halloween. Poor kid. I was just too lazy! Sorry buddy. I will make it up to you next year. C and M were the same old costume. The ones they wear every chance they get. It just did not seem like Halloween at all.

Thanks again to fam for taking the boys, making meals and grocery shopping for me.
