Still Infected

I just got the mommy gut feeling that the antibiotics hadn't worked from the last post that I had made about her ears and called the doc yesterday to see if she could be seen. She has her one year check up on Friday, but Friday is a long ways away when it comes to babies and their ears. We got Lola in after school and sure enough, her right ear is still infected. So a new set of antibiotics was given (the same thing happened at her last ear infection in November I think, Amoxicillan didn't work so they had to give her Omnicef to get rid of the infection). She has an appointment with the specialist on Monday the 16th to see what is going on with her ears and to see about tubes. Honestly, I want them to do tubes so that this whole ear infection thing goes away. Seems like Lola ALWAYS has one and then I feel like a bad mom that my kid is always sick.
I will keep everyone posted as to how that appointment goes when we know!

Chad Turns 30!!!

Happy Birthday to an amazing husband, daddy, and best friend!

Don't even know what to say?

Chad is out for a night on the town and rocking a new look! What does everybody think? I think it looks totally sexy and I wish he was staying home with that mustache and chops!





NOT!



He looks ridiculous! It took him almost 45 minutes to groom himself for the groom to be - Todd Kelley tonight! It is his bachelor party and Chad is going all out just for him!

Kyan's Birthday Party - Only 2 Weeks Late

We celebrated Kyan's birthday this year at Peter Piper Pizza! It was on Tuesday and planned very last minute, seems like this is how I do it these days, as Lola's birthday is next week and I haven't done anything for it yet! (Yes, you will be getting a call soon - but will be nothing fabulous for her either!)
Anywho, Kyan couldn't have cared less what day of the week it was on or who could and couldn't make it! He had a blast with his cousins, Michelle, Mason, Gage, and Sage, his friends, Steven, Daniel, Jayla, and Avery! Of course the kids' parents were there with them: Susie and Jearel, Rae Lynn, Camille and Brandon, and Angela, and Ryan! Grandpa and Grandma Moffitt made the speical day too!


The cutest story that came out of that night was right after Kyan blew out his candles. I reminded him that he needed to make a wish after he blew out his candle, forgetting that he would just blurt it out loud. This is where he clenched his fists together, closed his eyes and said, "I wish to be a real boy!" When he said real boy, he opened his eyes like he had just seen the light! We were all laughing because it might have been one of the cutest things he has ever said and it came out of nowhere, he got a little embarressed, but I tried to assure him that that was a great wish and that he did a good job! He is so sensitive!

Kyan's Mohawk

Can't even remember when this happened, but Chad and I were in the living room watching TV and Kyan comes out of our bathroom with the following hairdo -

He says all proud, "I'm a good mohawk maker!"

There was so much goop in his hair it was disgusting! He got into Chad's hair paste and decided that he was going to make himself a mohawk! He did a good job minus all the paste he used, TOO much! Needless to say, he was so proud of his mohawk and wouldn't let us touch it! We took a bike ride to the park shortly after - gooped up mohawk and all!

Superbowl Sunday

Mommies with their girls! I realized that as much as we are together with our girls, we didn't have a picture of the four of us! So Uncle B snapped this one of Susie, Jayla, Lola, and myself!

Brian and Chad

The Swishers

Auntie Susie trying to get a look at Lola's 5th tooth! Below is the face that Lola made after she was done messing with her!

Uncle B and Lola

Yes, that is one OLD tv set up in the bathroom, so that even when you are taking care of your business, you won't miss any of the game!

JayLo

Mommy and Lola

Kyan and Daddy playing our Cardinals Bean Bag Football game, from the looks of it I think Kyan has a better advantage!

Those that went (well, almost had everyone in the picture!)

Once again, we trekked over to Chad's dad's house for a long day of celebration! It is a tradition to watch the big game at Brion's house each year - this year was that much more special because our very own Arizona Cardinals were battling the Steelers! This was one that will go down in the books as the most fun Superbowl party of them all! Great company, great food, and great football! Our Cardinals gave it their very best and almost pulled off a victory!

It was a so nice to see how many people turned out - it was important to Brion, as well as us! This is the one time each year where everyone comes together! Thanks so much to our close friends and family that made the day with us!!!

TAG - You're it!

Candis tagged me on her blog, so now it is my turn...

The idea is: you go to your 6th folder of pictures and choose the 6th picture in that folder and post it. After that, choose 5 people to tag, or to play along with this. This picture happens to be Chad and I's departure to Hawaii, where we were married! Oh how I wish that is what I was doing right now!

So I tag:
1. Susie
2. Rae Lynn
3. Camille
4. Colleen
5. Discello

Can't wait to see your pics!
