Another Monday!

PINK eye has kicked our butts around here. Braylen got it the week before Spring Break. Which it took a 3ml bottle of eye drops to get rid of it. Mind you the little bottle cost $65. But was worth every penny. Check out how my little man looked.

* This is Sunday around 2:30.
* This is Sunday night around 10:30 p.m.

* And this is Monday around noon.

~Poor guy, you know that it was painful but he was a real trooper.~

Guess what? Now that Spring Break is over and we have to go back to school. Yep you guessed it Dayton woke up this morning with Pink eye. Thank goodness we have a few drops left. He actually doesn't look that bad. But the school nurse sent us home anyways.

~My turn is coming.~

I'm a new Auntie again!

At 12:53 this morning Leah my sister-in-law had Laycee. By c-section.She was breech which caused her collar bone to break.She is doing okay. She wasn't due till April 27th. But she was in a hurry to get here. She weighed 7lbs 13oz. She looks just like her daddy. Which is sad but for some reason she can pull off the look. She is just so beautiful! Here are some pictures I took, you can be the judge of her beauty. LOL!

Spring Break @ the Ralls' Place

Spring Break is almost over for us. Which I seriously didn't get a BREAK! Jamie worked and the boys and I just hung out.
*Monday- I was up at 5:45 to get Megan, my niece. She stays with us while her dad is at work. Dayton had an appointment with the ENT at Talihana. The ENT said that the knot that comes and goes is a lymph node nothing they can do about. WHAT?

**Also when Jamie got home from work Dayton wanted to practice baseball. Here's what happened Dayton and Jamie were playing catch and then they yelled for me to watch. It's gonna be a high ball and then it smacks Dayton right in the forehead.

It was a real baseball too! It made a THUMP!

*This is Kendri, my sister Valerie's niece. She called needing a babysitter for her so of course I said that I would keep her. She is around 18 mos. and wears 4t or 5t outfits. So guess what we did? We went for a walk. She was really an okay kiddo. After she threw up on me and fought about taking a bath.

*Tuesday-Megan came over again. So the day started at 5:45 when she got here. We went to Mena and got a new dryer because my other one was making this horrible screeching noise. I had to get it out of here. Dayton and I played catch for awhile. I think he's gonna be pretty good. We bought the movie "Bolt!" We liked it. Gavin came over and he spent the night.

Megan and Dayton

*Wednesday- Just me and the boys again. On this day we took a 4 mile walk. Which wasn't really all that bad. The older 2 boys complained more than poor little Ol'Braylen. Then they played or should I say the fought about everything. While I cleaned house. Then off to Chruch. Gavin also stayed the night again. Which doesn't happen much anymore.

*Thursday- Another day that started early. Gavin had a dentist appointment in Ft.Smith. His mom picked him up at 8:00 a.m. Jamie worked all night so he needed to sleep so what were we going to do while he sleeps? O' I know another 4 mile walk. Yeah I'm crazy. This time it was just Dayton, Braylen and I. While we were walking I had to keep yelling at Dayton to stay on our side of the road. And this is Braylen's response to that, " yeah Dayton you will get ran over and then It will be just me, right mommy?" Then he says "then I wont have anyone to fight with." I'm fillin' some "Brotherly Love" aren't you?

*Also Thursday night Gavin had baseball practice at DeQueen and Jamie took him. Around 8:30 or so Jamie calls and says that we are under a tornado watch. So I get out the emergancy candles and wait. Hoping that they make it home okay. Then the phone rings again and it's Jamie saying that the radio said that the tornado would be at grannis- wickes area around 9:00 by this time Jamie is at Gillham and it is 8:55. I tell Dayton and Braylen about the tornado and all Braylen kept asking was "when is the pornado coming?"

*Friday- Just the boys and me again. I know we are always together. No breaks when your kiddos don't have grandparents. Another long story, lets not go there. We had errands to run at Mena, which involved a lot of waiting. Which is not good for the boys. They have trouble being still for a few seconds. Lol! So the errands are done and still time to get in some spring\easter pictures. With a bribe to go to the park at vandervoort. Win-Win for me, I can handle that.

This is after we took the pictures. I thought that they turned out okay. There was mud everywhere but I told them if they took good pictures for me that we would go so we did.

What a Wonderful Weekend!

This weekend was so nice. The weather was perfect. Saturday Jamie took the boys fishing. He happened to take a picture of Dayton and his fish. If I would have gone there would be more pictures but I didn't go. I decided to get my hair trimmed and get groceries by myself since Jamie had the boys.
I felt lost with out them. I ran into several people that I knew and they were shocked to see me without the boys. I needed a break from them and they also needed a break from me. I also believe that they needed time with just daddy. As soon as I arrived home they both came running out the door. At least they missed me. I know I missed them. It will probably be a long time before that happens again. Now on Sunday we got up ate breakfast and headed to church. I helped in childrens church, which was so fun. I may start helping more often. After church we snacked a little then headed outside where we stayed the majority of the time.

I like this picture of the boys jumping. How my camera caught that I don't know?

We ate M&M ice-cream sandwiches. Yummy!

We took a ride on the 4 wheeler too! Dayton did most of the driving. Really he did.

And the park @ vandervoort. They really need newer stuff. I think I'll complain to the mayor. Lol!

My baseball player. We went to the picnic grounds where the baseball field is and played catch and ran the bases. And yes I ran too!

Braylen is trying to make a fashion statement,I guess?

Brotherly Love!

Spring time and flowers? Braylen just had to give me flowers. I really don't like flowers because they just die. But I put these in a vase. For Braylen's sake.

Hope everyone as a great week.

I know the weekend will be busy so get ready for some more pictures of what goes on around here.

Celerbrating 81 years!

On Tuesday March 3, 2009. This man celerbrated his 81st birthday. This is Jamie's Grandpa from his Mom's side. We all call him Papa Doc. Most of you may know him because he's a Big Hornet fan. He goes to all home games and some away games.
He also loves the kiddos. Though most aren't related to him they call him Papa Doc. He's the one on halloween night that hands out apple's instead of candy. Lol! He would also do anything for you. A short story about him that makes me laugh is... He came to the preschool last year because he knew I worked there and walked in with a gallon of ice-cream for the kids. He is always doing things like that. LOL!

I don't know why Braylen was sitting in the corner eating. This picture makes me sad. But he did eat everything on his plate. These are pictures of a few people that came to the party.

We all had a blast. There was plenty to eat and 2 cakes so plenty of sweets as well. Oh yeah he also had ice-cream. This man as lived an awesome life. He is one of 10 kids.(I think)

Not sure why I don't have a picture of Dayton and Koty? All of Papa doc's kids were there except 1 she is in Iraq. And most of the grand kids were there.
