Recapping the last couple of Months

It's been a long time since we have been able to post. It's been busy. Here we go:
Christmas Time

Parker getting over RSV

Colby going to the emergency room two nights after christmas with Croup.
For christmas the boys got a train table and a thomas train and a bunch of other toys and clothes.
Karii gets a Upper GI done to see why she still has the same pain after having her gallbladder out. She has a Herniated stomach and gastritis.
Old Neighborhood Party- I decided to have all the kids in my old neighborhood over for a party a lot of them were going to be in from out of town. It was so fun to see everyone and their families and to catch up. I just wish it could have lasted longer!!!
January
Tim turns one year older and wiser too!
Surprise trip to Michigan. Tim's Father passed away in January from a fight with Colon Cancer and Leukemia. We got to go to Freezing cold Michigan for the funeral. I have never met him but it was something Tim wanted to do and it was good for us. It was cold and we got to see his family again and we got to see a lot more of them than last trip so it was nice. Get this Tim's brother's Fiance has a dog that is a brown lab mixed with a Weiner dog.....who would of thunk? Cute though! Sorry we didn't get pictures of everyone in Tim's family but we got some!

Kari finds out the back pain isn't from her stomach....she has more tests done. She has Scoliosis....guess those embarrasing back tests in Jr high for this didn't find mine....nothing they can do to help with the pain... :( More pain to deal with.
Kari's dad almost had his stomach out again.....but it got canceled again. They have to figure out his Liver problems first. Poor guy has everything wrong with him. But his stomach disease is Genetic....so guess who has to get a Colonoscopy in their 20's and early 30's.....yup all his kids....aren't we Lucky!

Tim get's yet another attach with Kidney stones poor guy. We went in the emergency room a couple of monday's ago and they were slammed. They said yup you got one...it's huge go home and drink lots of water and cranberry juice. Two mornings later we end up there again with more pain. they take and x-ray.....it hasn't budged. It needs lithotripsy. They blasted the stone. over two weeks later he is still sore and thinks is still passing the fragments. He was sick...he said it's worse than birth because we get epidurals!!! Now ladies yell at Tim not me :)

The day back from Michigan The bishop visited us and called me to be the Relief Society Secretary.

Here are a few pictures


This is our house in a horrendous mess the day we got back from Michigan. We had to leave without cleaning it and returned and started unpacking. My bishop said I needed to blog it to prove to everyone that my house does get messy and the only reason it's clean when they are over is because I know they are coming.

This is us waiting for our flight home in the Detroit Airport


Poor Tim this is how he ended up sleeping in the hotel during Michigan trip. I can't sleep with Parker and so some how he ended up with both of them.


This is Parker on his cousins bike. You can see the Brown Lab/Weiner dog in the background. And the cute young lady on the couch is Tim's youngest brothers fiance Jenn. She's a sweetheart.




This is us lounging around in our last night in Michigan. This is the hotel splurge we make every time. It's a nice hotel in Novi Michigan about 30 minutes outside of detroit. What freakin nice beds!!! We all slept good that night!



This is Tim's Best friend from Michigan that he grew up with. Her name is Angel. She is with her daughter Gracie and her husband Troy.

This is Angel's son Cole. He had more toys than we have ever seen in one room and Colby was in heaven. He begs us to this day to go play at Cole's house.



Again the wiener dog/black lab mix... Toby


Parker with future sister in law Jenn

This is Tim with his Uncle Harry (they look a ton a like you would think he was his dad) and Harry's wife Robin and Tim's cousin Ethan.



Again sorry a duplicate with Tim looking down



Tim's mom holding Parker

Tim's Cousin Sandra with the blonde hair and Jessica with the brown hair the funny thing is I have a cousin on my dad's side that looks just like jessica.


This is how we fed Parker in the hotels.


Colby getting bundled to go out in Michigan weather



Parker's first hair cut

This is just a picture of Colby one day he went downstairs to play with is train table and it became quiet and this is what we found. Him sleeping under the table.

Closer shot of our tired boy


This is a picture of my old neighborhood gang party!

Just a cute picture of Parker...and yes those are his gorgeous blue eyes!


This is the boys loot for christmas....spoiled much?
