The long and the short of it

Hello!
I haven't been posting because we have been so busy. I wish that I had more time to get more pictures. I will have the best of intentions and then life will get in the way.
Everyone is doing well after a few tough weeks.
1. Braeden kept getting sick and I was getting more and more worried. We took him to the doctor's on Wednesday and found out he has pneumonia. He is now on antibiotics and is feeling much better but they have some yucky side effects which make me feel so badly for him. I just can't wait for the little guy to be all better. He is talking up a storm and has so much personality. He continues to be my littlest best friend.
2. Riley is now a full fledged mother hen. She is too cute. She looks after Braeden and worries about EVERYTHING. She is my little helper and has such a sweet, nurturing side.
3. Waverly had a boo boo on her chin which she proceeded to scratch and scratch until it became infected. SO...we were off to the doctor for her and now she has creams and ointments to control her infection. She is obsessd with not wearing a bandage. I am obsessed with her wearing a bandage. It is fun. (Not really) She is my feisty one. She is too cute but a handful.
4. Rhys goes from being my buddy to pointing out everything Shawn and I do wrong. It is tough to go to a nine year old so fast. We are all adjusting, though, but it is one step at a time.
I will post pics when I get a chance!

Date Day
































Yesterday the little girls went out with Shawn to see Beauty and the Beast. They got all dolled up for their date with Daddy. Shawn said they loved the play and they got these adorable light up flowers to bring the Beast back to life. Last night, they told me the play starred the Beast and 'Belt'. Adorable!

The boys and I went shopping. We are re-doing the kids' rooms so we went shopping for curtains and rugs. We had a really good time. It was nice to spend some time with just my boys.

P.s. Don't think I left Rhys out! He stood there the whole time with us but REFUSED to have his picture taken!
