I don't think there is a day that goes by where Camden doesn't ask to hold Leif at least a gazillion times and then tell me "mom, baby Leif is soooo cute!!!!" He is such a proud big brother and especially while Parker was gone and I got sick, he helped a ton. We love having him in our home and in our family. He is such a kind-hearted little boy-such a blessing!!!!
We love our Owen. He really is our most crazy child yet. I know we only have 3 and one is new so you never know, but he is really living up to the second child position for sure. He has lost the desire to take naps now during the day so he usually drops at about 7:30pm. He was up a little later the other night and I knew he was playing in our entry way. Every once in a while I would listen for him to make sure he was still there and was doing okay(I was nursing and trying to get Leif to sleep) and I all of a sudden realized that I didn't hear him anymore. I paniced and ran into our entry way and found him asleep just like this!!!! We have found him in some of the funniest positions while sleeping, but this one is right up there with the best!!!!
K, really funny but kinda not fun thing happened. We were going to grill up some elkie patties (burgers made with elk meat but with a name like krabby patty for cam since he loves spongebob) anyway, we went out to BBQ the patties and found our BBQ face down on the snow-covered cement ground down our back patio stairs (there are 5 stairs). We had 70 MPH winds the other night and crzy amounts of snow and I guess our BBQ paid the price. Needless to say, we will need to purchase a new one in the spring-We love us some BBQ!!! This one could explode in our faces now and we don't love that!!! Really funny though that this happened cause it had moved on us a couple times with outher storms but something always made it so it didn't go down the stairs. There was nothing stopping it this time!!!
This has been me since monday afternoon. On tuesday afternoon the doctor finally got back to me and told me that I do have strep throat. I am finally feeling confident enough that I am not contagious anymore(thanks to antibiotics) to keep the mask off most of the time. I still have a nasty cough so I keep one around to cough into so I don't get the germies all over the children!!! I belive I took this picture on tuesday afternoon and I hadn't showered since sunday morning-Hot huh??? I have to say though that the vicks vapor rub all over the feet with socks over them for bed time-works great to keep the cough away at night time!!! I got really good sleep last night because of it!!!!

We got to have Ezra over the other day while his daddy and parker took care of the elk that they got. Cam and Owen love having ezra over to play. They have seen each other a lot lately and that always causes problems with 2 year olds. They do have fun though and I can get the boys to do pretty much anything if they know they get to go see Ezra!!!!


The boys wouldn't really cooperate yesterday but they got close enough to at least get a picture. Owen was watching george of the jungle and wouldn't look away from the tv, and you know how newborn pictures go, they look in whatever direction the brightest light is. All in all, we got a picture of all three and none are crying!!!!


K, I admit, the fam picture was scary!!! I had Cam snap some pictures yesterday-he did a pretty good job too!!! Anyway, this is how exciting our life is here at home. It snows a lot and we like to keep the baby indoors as much as possible!!!
