Applesauce!





We had a great day today! Chanse took the day off and the girls didn't have school. So we got up and started picking apples from our tree. we still have most of the red apple tree to pick. we went over to our friends the Nelson's and made really yummy apple sauce. We made 32 jars today and only used about a fourth of the apples. The girls were so helpfull, and we couldn't have done it without the Nelson's. They have three boys that came to help pick. We will finish on monday!

Renting a room at the Pediatricians office!





Poor little Elizabeth has had a very rough couple of weeks! Two weeks ago we took her in to the doctors office, and found out she had a sinus infection. Then last week we took her in again cause she wasn't feeling well and she wasn't eating. This time Ear infection! Today she woke up with red dots on the back of her neck. I thought she got mosquito bites at the ward FHE night. So I went to show Chanse and realized the red dots were all over her body! So once again we were on the way to the Peds office. Worried that the rash was infectious the peds office didn't want us to come in so we waited in the car. They came out and determined that it wasn't chicken pox and we could come in. So to make a long story even longer, The Dr. determined that it was a very bad allergic reaction either to her ammoxicilian or the watermelon she had at FHE. We gave her the ammoxicilian in the doctors office so that they could keep an eye on her for a little bit. The receptionist said if you had her all dressed we wouldn't even know anything was wrong with her! She is such a happy little thing! We didn't see any huge changes so we gave her some benedryl and came home. I dooo have to tell you that she is brilliant though. She went poopoo on the toilet today! What a big girl! It is easy to get a completely naked baby on the toilet in time when she gives such obvious signs of potty! (such as red face) Well all this and she is cutting two teeth but she is still happy most of the time!
And after all this, STILL a smile on her face!

Kymbal's first day of school!



Feeling so big for the first day of kindergarten. She was so excited to go to school in her cute new clothes that she got to go pick out with Grandma. She thought she was all that when she got to go with grandma and pick out her own clothes, and she was!

Cute little school girls!


I am not sure who was more excited Savannah or Kymbal. Savannah was so excited for Kymbal to experience Kindergarten she could hardly stand it. Savannah had a great kindergarten year. I am sure Kymbal will too. Kymbal has been looking forward to being in the same school class as her friend for the last 6 months. Luckily for us they got in the same class or we would have been in trouble.
She made it through the first day! She made new friends and has a great teacher. It should be a great year.


She found her friends, and she is just as happy as can be. So the kids are all over having a great time and the moms are all trying to keep the tears in. It is a great sight to see. I actually didn't have to much trouble until the next day when Savannah and Kymbal walked alone from the street to class. I sat at the top of the hill and watched them walk hand in hand to the kindergarten door. I was so proud of them being so independant but at the same time so sad that they didn't need me. I just wanted to carry them to class give them a big kiss and then hold them during class like I used to when they were little. I really am not this sappy but I just love my little sweeties. They are loving school and I am proud of both of them.
