Happy Easter!!

We had a great Easter this year!! The boys got spoiled as usual. And now we're all enjoying the great easter candy. The other day Tyler spilled some nerds in the kitchen. Peyton thought that was awesome and was getting mad at me when I was trying to sweep them up. He kept chasing after stray pieces that I didn't get with the broom!

Easter Egg Coloring Fun!!

The boys had a blast coloring Easter eggs. However, Peyton touched one when it was still a little warm so he kind of freaked out and wouldn't have anything to do with them again. The other day Bryan and Colby asked me if the Easter Bunny was real. I didn't want to lie to them because to me this is the most unreal character out of all the holidays. So I told them the truth, that it was just mommy and daddy. Does that make me a bad mom? They are still super excited for Easter and seeing what we got them, and finding the eggs that we're going to hide, so hopefully I didn't ruin the holiday for them! I also explained the real reason we celebrate Easter, so after that they thought the Easter bunny was kind of silly too!

Loving the sun!!! Hating the sick!!!

My boys were in heaven yesterday with the nice weather. They got mad everytime I asked them to come inside for something. Poor Tyler is still not feeling very well with his cold, so he didn't want to do much besides sit and sleep.

This is Tylers sick face :(

I even caught Peyton trying to sneek outside a couple of times.

And this is what I found this morning after being on the computer for a couple of minutes trying to get Bryans primary talk for Sunday. The baby chewing on a sword, Tyler fast asleep on the floor surrounded by every blanket I think we own. I'm still not quite sure what they were going for, but I kept hearing the words "disneyland, and airplane"?

Our "FUN" week!

This past week has been anything but "fun" thats for sure. I'll start from the beginning and try to remember everything that has happened. It started last Monday when I noticed Colby having really big, really yellow eye boogers. My kids have never had pink eye but I was pretty sure thats what it was. Tuesday morning, same thing with Bryan. Well, we made an appt for Tuesday to go see the doctor and get it fixed. Sure enough, pink eye. Colby also had some fluid in his ear but the dr wasn't sure how bad it was so he gave us a prescription just in case it got any worse. Wednesday Bryan is complaining that his ear is bothering him. By later that night, it was "killing him" (he's such a drama king) so I made Rob run to the store and fill Colbys antibiotic prescription to help it. I think me and Bryan got about 2 hours of sleep that night. He was up all night long saying his ear was hurting him. We had some ear numbing drops but apparently that wasn't helping very good. So we watched Bolt and Robin Hood all night long. And Rob works over night so it was just me and him. Fun huh!! Tyler and Peyton got the pink eye on Thursday. Sunday night Peyton wakes up every hour freaking out. He is normally an awesome sleeper so I knew something was wrong. Luckily Rob doesn't work on Sunday nights so I had some help this time. We took him to the dr yesterday and his ear drum ruptured!?! Poor kid. And now Tyler has a bad cold that he can't breathe through his nose at all, so he's walking around sounding like Darth Vader. He's not very good at blowing his nose yet so that doesn't help much. So I thought I would take a picture of all the medications and prescriptions I've been dealing with the last week.

We've got the eye drops, that I have to give each boy every six hours for the pink eye. Thats just loads of fun~~

The black lid numbing drops, heavenly!!

Peytons and Tylers Tylenol

Tylers saline nose drops to help his plugged up nose, also loads of fun

And Bryan and Peytons antibiotics, every morning and every night

Lets just say that without insurance and cafeteria plan money, we'd probably be in a lot of trouble!!

Easter Pictures!!

Finally!!! I got a cute one with all the boys smiling. Trust me, when you have four kids and you're trying to get them to all smile at the same time, its hard!!! But I think they turned out adorable!

Bolt Party!!!

We bought the boys Bolt this weekend and decided to have a party on Saturday night to watch it. They hadn't seen it yet but we heard it was good so we bought it. Well, this whole week Bryan has been practicing with Peyton trying to get him to crawl. He was getting so close, he would move his knees once or twice but then he would face flop it and start crying. For our Bolt party we made some popcorn for us to share. The boys all wanted their own bowl so I told them to just go get a little one and they can share ours. Well, Tyler spilled his a little bit on the floor and was trying to clean it up. The next thing I see is Peyton crawling as fast as he can over to the popcorn and shoving it in his mouth. It was pretty funny so I thought I would take a picture. He loved the popcorn by the way, so much that Tyler didn't have to clean it up, Peyton just took care of it. And Bolt was great for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, I definitely recommend it.

Colbys Birthday Dinner

This year we decided to start a new tradition. Normally for a persons birthday my parents will take everyone out to dinner. Well, we decided to start taking out just that persons birthday with mommy and daddy. I was all excited thinking Colby would love it, you know just being with mommy and daddy and going wherever he wanted to go. Well, I was wrong. When we went to drop the other boys off at my parents house they went outside to do some yard work and play. Colby wanted to stay of course. So he was so upset at me when I took him away and went in the front to wait for daddy to get off work. He kept screaming, "I want grandma, I want grandma!" So then I started just walking down the street cause daddy was almost there. He was kicking and screaming the whole time. People driving by probably thought I was trying to kidnap him or something. Well, daddy finally got there. We had asked him before hand where he wanted to go and he had choose Bostons. I like Bostons so I was excited. Well, last minute he changed his mind and wants to go to Golden Corral. YUCK!! I really don't like that place so I told him it was closed. That started with the tears again, so I said fine we'll see if its open. In his cute little tear voice he said, "Well, can we just wait until they are open? I'm fine waiting." How can you say no to that? So we went to Golden Corral, again. My parents had already taken us there last Friday for his birthday dinner. He was so embarrassed when they sang to him that he tried to hide under the table. So this time we didn't make them sing to him. We had fun though!! I hope its a tradition that they will eventually like to do.
