The things that make life wonderful.

Cole loves the backyardigans. This is him drumming to the caveman song. He loves dancing and drumming and jumping and climbing. He's a busy little guy.

We love when grandpa comes to play! He'll stop by when he's in town for work!
Avery in the hospital with RSV, Pneumonia, double ear infection and dehydration. It was horrible. Poor thing. I had been to the Dr. 3 times that week and she just kept getting sicker and sicker. I went Saturday morning and by that night she was so lethargic I called my awesome nurse neighbor Jenny Fischer, trying to be calm she told me I should take her right then to the emergency room. Avery was so sick. Her oxygen was in the high 70's (should be high 90's) she was so dehydrated they tried 6 different places to get an I.V. they even had an ultrasound machine out trying to find a vein. They never could get one.  Needless to say she was admitted to the hospital for 2 days.
Home on oxygen. She hated it and kept pulling it off plus the stickers that held it in place. Then she'd scream in pain.Then she'd scream while I attempted to put it back on. Lets just say it was a pain but I'm so so glad we got to come home with oxygen instead of staying at the hospital.


Wally and Cole playing with the train table!

Waiting for the sled ride to see the elk at Hardware Ranch. Cole loved the horses and as we rode in the sled he used his finger gun to shoot the elk. So funny!!

Cole's first snowman.  He's so funny. He calls snow, noes, and this is his noesman.

This is Avery feeling much better. Before she could stand she'd kneel and look over the edge of her crib. She loved it and would smile and smile at her new trick.

That is so sad to see Avery all hooked up! I am so happy that she is feeling better. Both of your kids are so darn cute!

What a great update! I love that last picture of Avery kneeling in the crib! and I LOVE the "noes"man. Also that picture of Dad kneeling down with kids on the floor is so cute! It's always fun when Grandpa comes, when Grandpa comes HOORAY!!!

I'm so sorry to hear that Avery was so sick; poor Avery (and poor worried parents). I'm so glad she's feeling better.
Your kids are so adorable!
