SICKO!!

Ammon has his first cold......it's so sad!! He's had it since Wednesday, but it has gone thru an evolution....started with a fever and stuffy sounds on Wednesday but the fever passed so we could stop worrying. Now he's got a runny nose, boogers, coughs, snorts, crying, whining, restlessnes, sleeplessness, chapped nose-chin-cheeks (from mommy & daddy wiping up all the aforementioned stuff), he's loosing his voice so when he laughs or whines it sounds like he went to an Aerosmith concert the night before!! I think that's enough....you get the picture. Its sooooo sad, he just feels horrible and wants to basically be held all day. He has played in the floor with some toys a little today but not like he usually does. I feel so bad for him, I know how I feel when I'm sick and I can do something about it....he has no options!! Poor boy!!

Notice the tear under his eye & the drool about to detach from his chin!

On The Inside Looking Out

This is one of Ammon's favorite things to do......look outside the window behind our bed. He gets so excited everytime he's on our bed, he crawls right up to it immediately and looks out of it every morning. He watches everything outside, the traffic passing the house, birds, powerlines but his favorite thing is to watch Duke, Daisy & Bo run around and bark at nothing and in this case, look back at him. Ignore the fact that you can bearly see out of the window!! It's so dirty and the dogs keep it that way!!

Kenzie

My niece Mackenzie is visiting from California for the week. Yesterday she and Ammon were able to meet for the first time. He loved the beads on her shirt...too cute:)

Our Saturday

I am just getting around to posting after eight whole days.... that is crazy for me. Life has been pretty uneventful around here lately, so there hasn't been much to post!! Saturday started off with a baptism of one of my primary kids, not a bad way to start your day. Unfortunately I was to busy to get any pictures of Garrett, I will have to get his mom to send me some. After the baptism we meet my friend Amber at Frisca's, a kinda new Mexican restaurant here in Burleson..... yummy! My mom was with us also.

After eating lunch we went to our house only to find ourselves bored. Amber had a few picture ideas so we then became camera happy.......

Sadie,Ammon and me..... I don't think he likes kisses:)Saturday night I was invited to a Christmas Party of Surgery Center that I used to work for so this is a picture of me before I left my little Ammon. It is sad to come home and him already be in bed:(

Firsts for Ammon

Ammon ate his first biter biscuit.... I think he might like it;) He was such a mess. Cookie up to his elbows. Yucko!! At least he enjoyed it.

Sliding with daddy. He really didn't know what was going on.

Mountain Man breakfast*

Our ward had a camp out Friday night.We didn't feel it prudent to have a 6 and a half mnth old in 40 degree temperatures over night. So Saturday morning we went out there around 7 for breakfast. Jason is the Scout Master in our ward, so of course he got volunteered to cook. Mountain Man breakfast is what they made, wow it was impressive! Tater tots, eggs,ham and cheese all mixed together. YUMMY!! Cooking wasn't so bad with six dutch ovens. Biscuits and Cinnamon rolls were also on the menu. I was just amazed how much and how well the dutch ovens cooked. I decided a dutch oven is something we neeeeeed. That is what we are getting for Christmas. I am so excited. We love to camp and have not had the chance to go since Ammon is only 6 mnths. I know some of you would probably camp with a young kiddo, but I want him to be able to walk:) Easier on us all! Also camping is so much more fun when you are properly equipped.

We were all cold, but Jason was red faced and sweating from having his face in the fire. Ammon was in a great mood and had a smile for everybody.
OH, and also because I missed out on smores the night before, I had two after I ate breakfast:) There is nothing healthier than to start your day off with chocolate and marshmallows!
Veronica, check out your dad in this pic..... he is so funny!!! LOL

Giggle Box

The video was taken yesterday. Ammon loved daddy's quack quack sounds. He thought it was just so funny! I love when Ammon laughs like this and I am so glad we finally got it on tape. Ammon gets in these moods and everything will make him laugh. He is so much fun. Gotta love him...
I
We got to eat lunch with Jason at work today! It's not often we get to do this, Jason loves eating lunch with us.....plus there is a GREAT chinese place near his work, mmmmmmm Chicken Lo Mein mmmmmmmm. Funny thing is I don't even like Chinese food?! But, anyway Panda Delite is de-lish.

Dwight and Elvis....

Question!
Which is best, brown bear or black bear?
False, black bear!
Jason was Dwight K. Schrute for Halloween, can you tell?????? He wore this to work and it took a while for some people to figure out that he was in costume. Someone at work came up to him and said "are you that guy from The Office?" She had just realized who he was, she said she was thinking to herself... "why is Jason dressed like such a DORK today?" He does look like a total dork though....LOL... love you babe!!
***********************

We went to a Halloween party last night and Guess who was there..... yep, Elvis! He is still alive, saw him myself. Elvis even put on a little show for us. Ammon's first concert, it was wild, lots of groupies...... those chick are NUTS!!!!














My little pumpkin on Halloween...... ignore the mess, focus on my cute pumpkin pie!
