Saturday

Saturday was Devin's Blue & Gold Pack meeting. The theme for the night was "fasching" which is German carnival theme. March is Fasching here in Germany. Everyone dresses up in Halloween type clothes and parades around. I am sure you will see pictures of Devin doing that another time.
Devin got his "Wolf" badge, one gold arrow point and 2 silver arrow points, and computer belt loop. Good job Devin! Do you think Devin has on enough beads?


We had a good evening with some great German food!
I am so counting the days til we move :)
I am ready for Utah and than GA. Time can go fast right now, please!

Baby Dane

I Just found these 2 photos on facebook from family. Dane is in the front in this first photo.
I can SO see Jarom in Dane's face here. He might even be around the same age as Jarom, 3-4 years old, I'm guessing.
Look at all those BOYS!!! I bet Dane was interesting back than!

Pneumonia

I finally got Dane to go to the doctor (first time I know of). They did a chest X-ray and he has pneumonia. He got to stay home from work one day, a first again. I think everyday he is feeling better. I really do not know why Dane, or men, have such a hard time going to the doctor. Dane thinks he should do everything in his power to fix the problem first and the doctor is last resort. I feel the Hospital is last resort not the doctor. He has been sick for almost 3 weeks before going to the doctor. Men.....I just have to love my man :)

Library Story Hour

Every Thursday I take Jarom and Ammon to story hour at the Library. They always have a number and letter of the day. Today was number 10. He is really starting to like story hour now. Something I find interesting about Jarom is his organization. He always has to have the stickers exactly in the circle. You can't even see the circle because he gets it "just right." He will sit there until he gets it right. I am thankful he smiles for me now too.
The books your children want you to read to them!!!!
Very interesting.

Since Monday was V-day and Family Night, we made Valentines for Jesus to show him how much we love him :) www.ldsfamilyfun.com is a great website for ideas!

Just a cute picture
Today has been a better day for me not being sick. So thankful for good health!

Sick, Sick, Sick

What do you do when both parents are sick? Dane has a fever/cough and I have a stomach virus that started today thanks to Jarom. I can not keep anything in, not even water. I feel very weak. It is amazing how your body can keep going (nursing) even though you can not drink anything. All I have to say is I better loose some weight, he he :)

Happy V- Day

Over the weekend the sickness has spread to Devin.
The house has been calm :)
This was 5:00pm on Saturday!
I got these nice flowers all through out the house for V-Day. Dane tried to hide the flowers in the hall way, but I could smell them. So I got them early. I needed piece of Florida here in grey Germany. I have been missing all our stuff around the house. So flowers were great. Can not wait to get to GA and start my flower collection again.

See the snow outside :( We just got it again.


Just some picture we took today, Sunday.
Ammon got his "first" tooth on Saturday.

I'm cool dude!

6 months

6 months today!
It seems so short on one hand, but a long time of no sleep!
I am so thankful to have this little guy :)
Since our stuff is gone, we got some family games for family night.
The kids loved, ring around the nosy.
Love our Army furniture :)
All I have to say is I should have kept MORE toys!

This week I have a very sick little 3 year old. For 2 days now he has not been able to keep anything in his tummy, not even water. Today, I gave him soda and it stayed :) He was so funny how he wanted to carry his bowl EVERYWHERE, just in case he got sick.

Special Sunday

As I was getting ready for church today, Dane said he was staying home because he felt really bad, sick. The kids were a handful in the morning. As I was trying to deal with the 3 kids and myself, I told myself, "maybe I should just be late to church. Can I really handle all the kids during Sacrament?" I knew I could, but did I really want to? Ammon normally does not make it through sacrament and Jarom can be another handful. I told myself, "no I need to show my kids that sacrament is important no matter what. So we went! The meeting was one of the most touching Fast and Testimony meetings I have had. I felt the spirit so strong. I know Heavenly Father helped me. I recieved blessings for choosing the right. Ammon slept the entire meeting and the boys were wonderful. It almost felt like angles were around my kids helping me. Those are the memories I will always treasure.

Pinewood Derby 2011

Saturday was our Pinewood Derby car race for Cub Scouts. Devin decided he wanted a "tank" car. He did not come close to winning, but tanks are slow, right?
As we were almost ready for the races to start, Jarom pointed to the wall in the school gym and said, "BAT!" Dane was so kind to take it outside.



Look at those cheeks! You just want to kiss them!

We also went bowling which is very often in our family. Jarom likes to have complete control over "his" bowling balls!

Here is the cheer for every pin pushed down.


Here is our Primary. I got it from someone's facebook :) Devin is on the right side.
