New Look.

Kayleigh decided it was time to give herself a hair cut yesterday. I new the day would come. It wasn't as bad as it could have been. She took a few snips from all over, not a big chunk from one spot. Luckily, it was pulled half way up and the short chunks in the back are covered up by the top layer. So, yesterday we took her in and had them blend what was needed and cut the rest shorter. I think the final hair cut is pretty cute. I am still finding chunks of hair hidden around the house.

A different kind of plumber

Adam usually refers to himself as a plumber of men. ( He is a urology resident right now ). Last night he got to do some plumbing in our house. After putting a lot of lettuce down the garbage disposal, Adam noticed a big puddle of water seeping up through the main line in the basement laundry room. We ended up with a pretty gross mess, and of course I wanted to share it with all of you. We had to run to Home Depot to buy a snake to clean the line. Besides Kayleigh and I being sick, and a really big pile of dirty laundry that got wet in the flood, we haven't had any problems today. Kayleigh is now on a steroid treatment for her asthma. She has to take is for 5 days. Her doctor said that "It would make her more active, eat more, and have trouble sleeping." It sounds like a fun week, huh. On a fun note, we saw two deer wander down our street tonight, while I was making dinner. One of my neighbors told me that they come up to eat the crab apples out of the trees when they get hungry. That was the first time I had seen it. Kayleigh and I tried to get a picture, but they were gone by the time we got out the camera.

Poor Me

So I have had an ear infection since last Thursday. I hate taking my kids to any kind of appointment with me. They are usually very naughty, and I decided that I would try to suffer through rather than go to the Doctor. Yes, Adam is a Doctor, but he can't right prescriptions outside of the hospital yet. Anyway, I spent my weekend being pretty miserable. But I can't hear out of my right ear anymore. That is a bonus when the kids are loud. A doctor that I go to church with wrote a script for me last night for some antibiotics,and hopefully I will be better soon. So today I will be taking lots of pain killers and laying on the couch with a heating pad on my ear. Oh I do get to take my kids to the doctor today because they are sick again too. More fun for me

Blake loved it too!

I was surprised by how much Blake liked it. I forget how big he is getting. He really liked looking at all of the animals, and chasing his big sister around.

The fish beg for food. It is really funny to watch. you can buy minnows and feed them if you want.



Isn't she brave! I don't know if I would have done this at her age. She wouldn't smile for the picture though. She wasn't going to take her eye off of him.
