It's been a while....

     I haven't written a blog post in so long!  Since I started working I've been much busier and my days at home are usually filled with laundry, cooking, cleaning, and having fun with Channing.  Recently I had my first L&D night shift.  And I'm happy to say that I survived!  It was actually really slow. Which made it feel really long.  At about 3am I hit a wall and felt like I was gonna fall asleep on the spot.  But I found that if I get up and do something then I wake up.
     Channing has been really sick.  He's never been this sick before.  On Monday I took him to the doctor and he ended up having a double ear infection, strep throat, and a possible UTI.  It's only Wednesday now and he's so much better after starting on an antibiotic.  I'm grateful for doctors and antibiotics.  And Justin gave him a blessing, what an awesome guy I married!  After Channing was so sick and grumpy it's really nice to see his happy self back. 
     I was planning on writing more but it's almost 11pm and I've only slept 5 hours in the last 40 hours.  Here's pictures to tell you what's new.
He's getting 3 or 4 new molars while battling being sick.  The drool was endless!

Over the weekend while Channing was not feeling good he didn't want to eat.  One night he would only eat a bag of fruit snacks for dinner.  At least he got some "fruit" haha. 
This is the day after he started on antibiotics...and obviously feel much better. 



I love it when he holds my hand.

It's a Good Life

Happy Father's Day to Justin!  I honestly think he is the best husband and dad that I could ever ask for.  Did you know that when Channing wakes up randomly at night all I have to do it shake Justin awake and he'll go take care of it?  Yes, I am lucky.  Dinner was steak, asparagus, and bacon wrapped corn.  Mmmmm.  I love the new things Channing learns everyday.  The other day he saw me use an oven mitt and had to give it a try.   Yesterday I walked around the mall, shopped at Target, and got a strawberry limeade from Sonic.  It was fun.  But then Channing didn't want to take a second nap and was cranky all day.  Oh well.  At least half the day was awesome!  Yup, Channing still loves pouring water everywhere.  And sitting in it....

Merry Christmas

It was a white Christmas here in Meridian, Idaho.  On Christmas Eve we went to church for an hour and then came home and let Channing and Mckenzie each open one present.  We made peanut butter blossoms for Santa's cookies.  And we wrote letter's to Santa.  We also watched mormon messages about the birth of Christ.  For a few weeks the kids were earning pieces of straw to put in Jesus's manger.  Each good act or deed equaled a piece of straw placed in the manger.  Then on Christmas Eve we placed Jesus in the manger and talked about how all our acts of kindness created a nice, soft bed for baby Jesus to lay in.  It was a great visual for them.  (I got this idea from my Relief Society last year.) Making cookies. Mckenzie opened a book from the Crawford's.   Channing got a fort building kit from the Crawford's. Letter's the Santa.   These cute kids. Who knew Mckenzie wanted a puppy.... ...

Our Thanksgiving

Days are flying by too fast and I cannot seem to keep this blog up to date.  We are already in the month of December!  November went by so fast.  I absolutely loved Thanksgiving with Jeff, Cortney, and Patrick staying at our house and my mom and dad visiting.  We ate some great food.  Cameron made a fantastic turkey in his smoker and all the sides were de-lish!  Some of my favorite moments were taking family pictures then going to chick fil-a for dinner.  Watching the new Spider Man movie with Jeff and Cortney.  Oh, and Jeff bought us all ben and jerry's, yup he's a good brother.  Shopping with my mom, sister, and sis-in-law.  Watching all the cousins play together.  My dad meeting Isaac for the first time.  Going out to breakfast with my mom and dad.  Channing's reaction to seeing Anna and Elsa characters at the Scentsy Commons Christmas lights--he's super bashful and his teenage years are going to be hilarious.  One...
