Reason #1 BIRTHDAYS!!!! (And an Anniversary)
Sadie turned 2 on January 14th. Bryce and I made a cake for her on her actual birthday and the kids had a hay-day decorating it with all the sprinkles!
Jared and I celebrated our 6th Wedding Anniversary on January 24th (also Bryce's birthday). It's amazing to look back and see how much we have done together.
We had both the kid’s parties on the same day. Bryce was super excited as this was the first year he was able to invite friends. He had his party at Monkey Joe’s, it’s a place full of inflatable jumpers and slides (the parents are even allowed to go on them)! Bryce was super excited to share his “Incredible” themed birthday with his friends. He truly enjoys being 4!
We had Sadie’s party back at our house with all of our family. She had a Hi-5 themed birthday. Hi-5 is a kids’ show on Discovery Kids that has lots of singing, dancing and skits. Sadie is OBSESSED with it…it plays non-stop on one of our DVD players! She loves to say she is “2” and is living up to it, complete with imagination, energy and of course tantrums!
Reason #2 SNOW!!!!
Snow has been falling, falling, and falling. Bryce LOVED the snow!!!! He crawled in it and “rolled down the hill”. Jared bought a snow-blower this year and has definitely got his use out of it this season. These snow days have lead to some school delays and cancellations for preschool this week and I have enjoyed spending the extra time with my kiddos.
Reason #3 SICKNESS!!!!
Sadie was diagnosed with asthma last year and we were lucky to escape the entire summer and fall without any flare-ups or use of the nebulizer. Well, that has all changed. All the yucky germs are lurking about and caught Sadie! She had a double ear infection, sinus infection and flare-up all at once, so the nebulizer is back in full use! We also found out that Sadie’s ear tubes are no longer functional so she will have a new pair put in. With her history, her ENT feels it’s best to also remove her tonsils and adenoids at the same time. She is scheduled for surgery on February 24th. Sadie did great with her last surgery, but this one has a bit more recovery to overcome and I pray God’s blessing for a speedy recovery!
Bryce has usually been my “healthy” kids, but these yucky germs got the best of him as well. He has had an ear infection, a sinus infection, and the stomach virus…yuck!
We are on the mend to good health. I just hope Spring gets her QUICK!!!
So, that’s the update in the Hamilton household for the Winter of 2010!
