What a Long Week!!

Kyle has been out of town all week for work...what a challenge. Things have gone well for the most part, but I miss my husband!! It has broken my heart the way that Kendall runs in the house every day calling for her Daddy...and he isn't there. She asks me everyday if Daddy is ever coming home. Kyle is having a tough time too...which actually surprises me. He isn't real emotional most of the time, and I figured he would kinda float through this week without it really bothering him...I was wrong. He says he misses his girls like crazy....I just let myself assume that that means me too:) Things will be back to normal...whatever that is...tomorrow night and I can't wait!
Oh...Addy is rolling over. She started about a week ago. I don't know if I had mentioned that earlier or not. She was 3 months old yesterday....time really flies with the second one!

Not much is happening...

Everything has been pretty normal around my house recently......everyone is finally well, and both kids have been sleeping all night. It kinda seems too good to be true so I am waiting on something weird to happen. Kendall had her first haircut last week...it wasnt' really long...but it needed to be cut just to look healthy. She did a great job. She also had her first dentist visit on Monday....that wasn't as good as the haircut. She did okay with the brushing, but not so good with the scraping....and we didn't even attempt the flouride because she refused to use the little straw that sucks all the spit and water out of your mouth. She kept telling the hygienist she was "all done". I was really glad to get out of there. I will post some pics later. I can't seem to find time at home to do that....I have to take time at work just to write this. It is sad when things are less hectic at work than at home!!!

Call me Cruel.....

Calvin is going to a new home. He has become an expense that we can't afford. I tried to tell Kyle that from the beginning, but you know how men can be. We have spent about $300 on our "free" dog in the past month, and now something is wrong with his foot. Kyle wanted to take him to the vet, and I told him we didn't have the money. The kids are getting more expensive, with haircuts and dental appointments and preschool.... I told him that if he wanted to sell his new(used) truck then we would be able to afford the dog. He finally agreed that he may be better off with someone else. It is funny how reasonable men become when they may have to sacrifice their toys!!!! Kendall seems okay with it....I don't think she was all that attached yet. I hope she handles it well. I am sure we will have a family pet one day...when the timing is better.

Sick Again

I am beginning to hate winter. We are sick again. It started with Kendall this time...coughing, runny nose, and a fever. We went to the doctor and they checked her for the flu. Luckily it was negative. The did give me some prescription cough medicine for her and it is the BEST stuff ever. It stops the coughing all night and doesn't make her jittery like OTC medicines. I thought that she would be the only one sick for a few days, and then yesterday I started coughing and running a fever...this morning it was Kyle's turn. We are just hoping to keep it away from Addison.
On a more positive note...Addison is sleeping through the night and has done it consistently for about a week and a half now. I started feeding her rice cereal a couple of times per day and she started sleeping through the night. I don't care what the doctors say....you sleep better when your tummy is full. She is starting to lift her chest off of the ground during tummy time, and I swear she is already trying to roll over. She prefers her side anyway, and I think one day soon she is just going to roll all the way.
Calvin....the new puppy....is good. He sleeps in the garage in a cardboard mansion. Now that he isn't keeping me awake I guess he isn't so bad. As long as Kyle continues to pick up his poop I think I will let him stay.
