I hate my toe nail, I mean the lack of one . . .
It doesn't take much to pop it loose, whether I stub it, get is caught in a shoe or sock or someone/kid/dog accidently steps on my toe, the nail pops loose. Well just my luck I stubbed my toe last night . . .low and behold my toe nail came off! GRRRR! I painted the rest of my toe nails red to match the ugly spot. LOL!
The boys thought it was really cool to touch my toe where my nail used to be. Boys will be boys!

A bite mark & the flu
When I showed up to pick up TJ from daycare this is what I found . . . TJ had a toy another little boy wanted and this little brat decided to take a bite out of TJ. GRRRR! I was none too pleased to say the least. The teacher and director of the daycare felt horrible. I gave TJ lots of loves and of course he was fine the very next day. What a champ Bubba is.
Later that same week Hunter boy got the flu. I honestly thought it was just the 24 hour bug that he gets every year since he was one. Boy was I wrong. Hunter threw up and laid around for two additional days. Jake and Charli were right there to comfort him as well.
We got the whole damn family sick! It honestly wasn't intential but I still felt bad. Next time Hunter throws up every 20 minutes but never spikes a fever, and is acting normal the very next day, he will be kept down for another 24 hours, just to be sure! LOL!
Hunter boy is 6 . . .
Hunter wanted to go to Chucky Cheese's for his birthday so on Friday, New Years Day we headed to Layton for some fun. Grandpa Steve and Grandma Sue joined us as well.
On Saturday January 2nd we had the family up for cake and ice cream. Hunter was spoiled of course . . . new DS games, transformers, GI Joe toys, a new coat plus we lucked out back in the Fall and got a 4 wheeler for free from a gal that Troy works with. It needed some electrical work done so Grandpa Lane came to the rescue and helped fix the machine. Our luck didn't stop there, Troy mentioned to a guy at work that we needed to get some nice helmets for the boys, well low and behold, he happened to have two that his boys had grown out of. SWEET! We love free stuff!
TJ loves being just like big brother. He has his own helmet and has taken over the battery powered 4 wheeler that used to be Hunter's.
Christmas 2009
I remember as a kid my sister and I hung out in the bedroom with Mom while Dad went to see if Santa came. Troy and I continue that same tradition with our boys. The boys couldn't wait to see what they got . . .
TJ was so excited to see the ET toy . . .Santa even brought ET the movie for his new DVD player.
Hunter boy also asked for cowboy boots like his daddy. He found some he liked that were John Deere at IFA so that is what he opened from his dad and I.
Troy has to go on the roof quite often at work and needless to say it's damn cold! So the boys and I got him a face mask to help keep him warm.
Jake and Charli got bones from Santa too . . .
Christmas Eve 2009
We headed to Lane and Leann's first. We enjoyed a few hours at their house, the boys thought it was so cool to get their own "credit card" aka gift card to Wal-Mart so they could pick out what they wanted. Grandma & Grandpa also got the boys cool pens and activity books as well. Troy and I got yummy cookie mix.
Since Aunt Marie passed away, we have been going to LaRue's for Christmas Eve for dinner and to open gifts. Both Melissa and I like to stay home on Christmas day so it's nice to have a place to meet and exchange gifts. Grandma Rue spoiled our family. We all got comfy PJ's, Troy and I got a levi blanket she made. Grandma got Hunter boy a stereo and Bubba a GEO Trax set. Aunt Melissa, Uncle Jeremy and the kids got Hunter and TJ the cutest slippers. TJ's sound like a chicken and Hunter's moo like a cow.
TJ loves his Great Grandma Poorte . . .
We had to make a quick stop by Aunt Kari's on the way home. She helped Santa get that very unique gift TJ asked Santa for. LOL! Unfortunately with all the bad air we had to give Hunter boy a breathing treatment before we could head home as well. Thank goodness Grandma Sue was there to come to the rescue.
A quick visit with Santa
Hunter was excited to tell Santa that he was a good boy and wanted a DS for Christmas!
Troy's 39th birthday . . .
Since the weather was crappy and the crud was going around we didn't have many people over. We let the kids play too. They thought it was great to have root beer in their cups and play with the big kids! I love Hunter's face when Bobbie throws the ball.
