Sad News

Well, I spoke too soon back in December. Bluey became sick about a month ago and after several trips to the vet and rounds of antibiotics and blood tests, he passed away on Friday, February 15th due to cancer. Brady was very sad and cried for quite some time. We went to the vet to say goodbye knowing that he would "die" that evening. I didn't get into the details with Brady because frankly, he doesn't need to know. Bluey was still very happy but was confined to the laundry room and hating it. He will be coming to live on the shelf soon, wish me luck with that conversation. : )

More Stitches for Colby

I'm starting to wonder if it is a bad sign when your child has been to the ER three times in his 2 1/2 years. Hmmm... Or is this just what it's like to have boys? Colby came running into the family room chasing after a balloon and as I said "Come here away from the TV", he slipped and hit the stereo receiver. Luckily the ER wasn't too busy. 2 facial scars at age 2. They were able to use glue instead of stitches, thank goodness. He was very brave, not a single tear.

Happy to be home!

Happy New Year!

We spent New Year's Eve with our neighbors, Lee and Blanca, and a few other friends. We went out to dinner and then to a club for dancing.

My husband just LOVES pictures!
Happy 2008 everyone!

Christmas with the Odem Family

Christmas #5 was at my mom and Ken's house with his kids and grandkids.

We were so wiped out when we got home. The boys had fallen asleep and we put them in bed. The next morning Colby wanted to open more presents. Ugh!

On to Christmas #3- Christmas Eve dinner with my family- Mom, Ken, Uncle Dana, Denise, Uncle Jud.

Christmas #4 was Christmas morning, just the four of us. We even had snow on Christmas this year. Ok, ok, it wasn't much, but it was white. : )

Majewski Family Christmas

Onto Christmas #2, the weekend before Christmas.

The boys could hardly wait to open their gifts. It was a good thing they got to open something before Christmas, or they just may have exploded.

We were joined for dinner and gifts by my in-laws, Dave and Sharon, my sister in-law, Janell, and her boyfriend, Jim.
I had a hard time getting pictures of the boys, they were in such a hurry to rip their packages open.

Christmas with Grandpa Steve & Chris

My dad works the second half of every month, so we always have Christmas before the 15th. The boys love to have early Christmas. Dad does a good job of getting them cool clothes.
