Sickies

 I have been meaning to blog.. no really I have.  So this post will be about why!  We got back from spending New Years in Salt Lake and the next day, Jaxton started throwing up.  It was awful!  Every 15 minutes, almost like clock work.  Throw up everywhere!  On the couch, on the floor, we went through jammies after jammies.  So we went through that for 2 days, and he started losing weight.  I took him to the doctor and he threw up all over their office.  It was awful.  The doctor checked him, gave him a suppository and we had to come back the next day.  Oh, did I mention that while I was at the dr's office, Chandler (who was watching Paisley) texted me and Paisley was throwing up also!  Oh yeah, and Kyle was working concrete, so it was a one man show.  This went on for a few more days. Jaxt got over it and it seems that Paisley is still fighting the end of it.  Even through all of the madness, I love the snuggling and the "I only want my mommy"... I can't help but cherish those moments.  Kyle went to Salt Lake for work for a few days, so I headed down to Vegas to stay with my mom and get some help.  As much as my parents tried, these poor kids wouldn't let them do anything, so it was basically me alone again.  But it was nice not having to cook dinner and every morning my mom would braid Paisley's hair.  I know they are little things, but they really helped.  But the drive home today sucked.  Both kids whined and fought.  I am tired and worn out.  So there it is. Can I add that even though they were sick... how cute are these kids??

New Year... New Resolutions

I'm not a huge fan of making resolutions.  I do it every year, and like most other people I break that resolution in a month or so.  So Kyle and I decided to make more realistic resolutions.  So here they are:
Shannon:
    1.  Journal more (whether that means blog, scrapbook or actually journal, I wasn't specific just be   
         better about recording what we do)
   
Kyle:
    1.  Do better in school.  (He already does great, but it's his goal to stay on top of it)

So there they are. 
Happy 2013 everyone!!!  I'll probably be seeing you soon!
