Spring Fever

Dylan's new room!

Home improvements are non stop at my house, and as much as we try I find it hard to finish everything. Dylan's room has been neglected for the last 9 years, so i decided to try and tackle it myself.

Before.....

After.....

I am very proud of how it turned out! And I did it all on my own ( except of course for hanging the shelf and the chair rail...those big power tools scare me a little.)

Dylan even got to go to the store and pick the paint. The best part...

The black is chalkboard paint, it must be un to be a kid!

So Sick

So little Jennsen had just gotten over the flu when she had her 12 month doctors visit.
Talk about bad timing! She of course needed her shots. So with the doctors ok, she received 4 shots (6 vaccines total). Dylan was very cute, he had to leave the room because he didn't want to hear his baby sister scream.
Now, I've been through many series of shots having three kids, but never on the heels of a sickness.
That night Jennsen had a HUGE fever. The next morning we were both exhausted. I set her down in our room and couldn't believe how sad she looked. I was amazed at how concerned brother and sister were. Luckily her fever broke last night and she seems to be doing fine today.

Lesson learned! No more shots when someone has been sick.

Happy 1st Birthday!

Jennsen turned 1 on February 7th
I can't believe a year has flown by already.

12 month stats...

Weight = 19.07lbs (18%) Height = 29.92in (77%)

Birthday Joy!

Proof that mom bakes!

Present Time!
You would think we told her to be careful.

She just loved what Nana and papa Craig gave her.

Cake eating time!

I'm used to my kids shoving as much food in there mouth as possible. so when Jennsen picked it up and daintily ate the frosting off, i was a little disapointed but hey, makes for easy cleanup.

All in all (besides the kids having the flu),

It was a great 1st Birthday
