Happy Birthday Cindy!!!

Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Cindy!!!!!! Happy birthday to you!

For those of you who don't know today is Cindy's 32nd birthday ;) It probably won't be one of her most enjoyable birthdays ever since on Tuesday Cade went to the doctor and came home diagnosed with a double ear infection, tonsilitis, and the early stages of pink eye. Yesterday Kaitlyn went to the doctor and came home with a double ear infection and spent most of the night caughing, tossing & turning, and moaning with a high fever. Sadie is cutting teeth (probably 4-6 at a time like our other kids) and I had to go to work today.

I'll do my best to make it end well but I'm sure a phone call and/or e-mail would be appreciated today ;)

Cindy is doing a great job. Everyone of you who know her would be very proud. The kids are now almost 4, 2 1/2, and 5 months old. They all play very well together and are the happiest three little kids you'll ever meet. Cindy is fantastic wife, mother and friend. I'm sure being home all day cooking, cleaning, washing dishes, coloring, gluing, and listening to dumbo and dora isn't the most exillerating way to spend your time but she does it and keeps a very possitive attitude. I love you hun!!! Thanks for all you do and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Mouse killer

A couple months ago I found a little field mouse in our garage. I set a trap and got one, then another, and another, and another. I haven't caught one for a while so I think they are all gone.
Well a couple of days ago I was watching Dumbo with the kids. There's a scene where dumbo visits his mom, there's music, and all of the various baby animals are being shown with their mothers. Then the little mouse starts to cry and Kaitlyn looked at me and said, "the little mouse is crying because you killed his mom and now he misses her huh?" :) What do you say to that? :) I convinced her that those were diffrent mice and that dumbos friend is probably just lost and looking for his mom who I'm sure is still alive :)

Our family picture attempt

So we've been talking about going to get family pictures for a month or two and still haven't. Now most of the leaves have fallen and the color is gone so we decided to get out and at least take a few on our own. We'll probably still go get some but here are the results of our attempt.
