Utah+Winter=SUCKS!

I am so sick of Utah winter I could SCREAM! There are many reasons for that statement but the main one right now is because this winter brought a lot of sickness to my home. Right now Crew, Indie, and myself are very sick and Nick is starting he downward spiral. I feel so bad because my little 2 year old and 6 week old baby are both snot faced and coughing up there lungs. The worst part is I can't really help much at all, cause I am in their same boat. Why do mom's have to get sick? All I really want is to help my little ones get better and I can't get better myself to even help them. I feel horrible hearing them cough. Crew has to be on breathing treatments to help loosen everything so he isn't wheezing and Indie has to be suctioned before and after every feeding to be able to swallow and breathe. Both are on antibiotics and I am hoping that it starts to work very fast. The Dr. said they both have a little redness and water in their ears. Not a full on ear infection but the start on one. As well as the flu. Which can very quickly turn into RSV. Scares me to death. I stayed up the first night Indie came down with her cough to make sure she was breathing all night. I have heard way to many horror stories and I didn't want my baby to be one of those. Maybe it's the new mom in me, but I wouldn't have gotten good sleep anyway.
Another reason Utah's winter sucks is because we can't GO OUTSIDE!!!! Well, we can if we want to take an hour to get the kids in their gear. Seems like a lot of work for the little time we will be out there. Esp. when daddy isn't home during the day to help!!
Needless to say I AM OVER WINTER! I want to be able to go running, walking, swimming, etc. without worrying if when I come home we will all be sick again! PLEASE GO AWAY WINTER! BRING ON THE SPRING!! The END!
**(sorry another post with no pictures. Busy Ly-soling the house instead of taking pictures this week!!)**

ONE WORD: PRECIOUS!!

I am so excited about the newborn photos my cousin, Jeanna, took of Indie! I can't even tell you how amazing Jeanna is, so I will just show you. Click HERE Scroll to the post with "INDIE" at the top! There are just a few of the many she took! I am so excited to get them up in her nursery! Cause HERE IS THE FINISHED PRODUCT!! I AM IN LOVE! I had a "vision" of what I wanted it to look like and I think it may be better than what I had in mind! I still want to add a few odds and ends but for the most part its done!! What do you think?? Totally Sassy and not too "babyish". I like the look of being able to have my nurseries grow with the kids. Crews moved with him to his big boy room and I believe Indie's will grow with her for years! I really don't have a FAVORITE part of the room but I do think that her name and the chandelier REALLY make the room!!













and all of this is for THIS PRECIOUS ONE!!!

CRAZY TWO

I have been so consumed with baby, diapers, feeding, cleaning, feeding, diapers, etc. You get the point!! That I have not had time to write all the crazy things that have been happening around here. So I decided to put them in one post!!!
Crew has been so excited to have a baby in his house. We usually find him in the pack n' play trying to "hold" Indie!! He can't stand it when she is sleeping. So he will usually try to open up her eyes for her. AHHHHHH! Now you may not think that's so bad but when I tell you that his latest new fun thing to do is come out of his room with his diaper off and all the contents inside of it on his hands... YES, you heard it right.... all over his hands, floor, etc. Well now you know why I freak out when he tries to touch her face without me knowing! The joys of two I tell ya! I turn my back for a few minutes and there is something waiting for me to clean up!! AGAIN! I think it may be time for POTTY TRAINING!?!?! We will see!
The other night while putting Crew to bed, we were helping him say his prayer and he decided that he no longer needed help saying the prayer and that he would take over and as soon as prayed for Indie he started singing "twinkle, twinkle little star" It was the cutest thing ever! If you read the last post you know that is his favorite song to sing to Indie. So it was really sweet to hear him say her name and then immediately think to sing her a song!! I love Crew! The moments I want to scream cause I am cleaning up poo off the floor and he is taking his 2nd bath of the morning I will try to remember these special moments!
