February Post

It's time for my usual end-of-the month post. That seems to be all I can remember to do anymore! February was a very busy month for us and we finally got some snow. My birthday was the 10th, the kids had dentist appointments on the 11th, I had a Quiz meet in Hutchinson on the 12th, and then Ryan joined me there for a weekend away from the kids. We had a great time! I started a dance fitness class the next week and got to attend a fun party on Saturday night the 19th.

This last week was the busiest with Cindy's EEG in Wichita on Monday and then Ryan being gone long hours at work the rest of the week. Tonight I have a Bunco party to attend and then I think things will start to slow down other than the regular, standing activities. Phew!

Here are a few photos from our adventures over this past month. The kids really enjoyed the snow and Ryan had to bring them in literally kicking and screaming:




















Ryan surprised me with beautiful roses on our Birthday/Valentine's Day Weekend:




















It's fun to see the kids playing together. Kaden was giving Cindy "horsey" rides:




















For Cindy's EEG, they had to stick 24 electrodes to her head with this super goopy stuff. After she woke up, it looked SO funny!
















Her test came back great. There is no sign of continued seizure activity. Hooray! As always, there are lots more photos to view on DropShots.

It's Almost February

Wow! It's been almost 2 months since I last posted. That's mostly because there's not a whole lot to post about. Christmas was good. I think the kids had a great time and you can view pictures at DropShots. We have all been fighting a lingering cold since around Christmas time, some of us worse than others. Hopefully that will get better soon!

Today I decided to hot roll my hair just for the fun of it. Cindy saw the rollers in my hair and decided that she wanted them too! I had so much fun putting her hair in rollers. Here she is, so proud of them:



Her hair was nice and curly when we took them out:



From the back:



Unfortunately, within an hour, the curl was completely gone. After her nap, she begged me to do it again. She was so cute about it, I gave in. But, I think I may have started something. Before dinner, she drug me to the bathroom, pointed at the hot rollers and said, "Hot hair please. Hot hair!" I think she really, really likes it!

I realized as I was taking these pictures, that they are the very FIRST pictures I've taken so far in 2011. Good grief. What kind of mother am I? LOL! So for good measure, here is one of Kaden too, lest he accuse me of not taking a picture of him in January 2011 some day!
