Quick Post... Natalie Talking

I didn't get her laughing.. but she was telling stories!

Trip to McCall & Riggins

Well last Wednesday Matt went up to Riggins to go hunting. I left Thursday morning with the girls. Well Madi decided she needed to start coughing so hard she made herself sick. I was pulled over in the middle of the canyon on Hwy 55 with Madi sitting in her portable crib while I cleaned out the car! JOYFUL. She then managed to do it again. I decided to take her into the doctor when I got into McCall. They decided to test her for whooping cough...they had to stuff a swab up her nose and down her throat. It was a terrible experience. The girls and I drove down to Riggins on Friday to see Matt and his Dad.

I took Madi outside for a few minutes on Saturday, it was not very warm but she had fun running around, and sitting on Grandpa's motorcycle.














Here are a few pictures of last week. Madi loves to ride her bike... we make her wear her helmet! She is growing up so fast. And Natalie is now 3 months old and loves LOVES LOVES to laugh. I will try to get a video this week.

Sick Girls!

Well both girls have really bad colds this week. I had to take Natalie in on Thursday. She is so stuffed up she can't breathe. She started to throw up and was choking. I had to use back thrusts to get her to start breathing again. SCARY STUFF when it's your own kids. Thursday morning she started throwing up around 1:30 am. I took her out to the couch so I could sit up with her. I plugged in the humidifier and stayed awake the whole night just making sure she was breathing! Well she just has a bad cold.

A few days ago we found Madi a new stuffed animal to sleep with, except he is not stuffed! Gauge really likes Madi's big girl bed!

And finally the girls and I are pretty upset that just last week is was 91 degrees and now it is in the sixties.  Madi was not excited about the rain and wanted to go outside and play with Gauge! It broke her heart that I wouldn't let her because it was so cold!
