Tommy

After I gave Tommy a bath, I left to find him a shirt to wear. I came back and found him asleep on the rug. I guess taking bath was just a little too exhausting for him.

Samantha is 6 months (back in November)

Look at this baby girl! She is the most adorable little blue eyed girl I've ever seen. I'm not bias or anything!! She is so happy and content and the kids love her. Unfortunately, at night she's had some issues and always has until recently at 7 months. I'm not kidding when I say that she used to wake up 10-15 times a night screaming. It was torture!! There were so many times where I ended up holding her on my chest just so I could get so rest. Wow, bad memories of sleepless nights are coming back to me as I'm writing this. But luckily the worst is over. To make a long story short, she's on reflux medicine and she's doing much better which means I'm doing much better. It's amazing what a little sleep will do for you!! Now I feel like I need to catch up on things!

Thanksgiving 2010

For Thanksgiving this year, we packed up the van and headed to Canton, Ohio to visit my Aunt and Uncle. It was so great to see family. The kids played the Wii. I made cards and Lee got to relax. What more could you ask for.

Happy New Year to all of you loyal Pooled Reflections readers. I have so much to catch up on and isn't that always the case!!! But first I wanted to give credit to my friend Raven who worked her magic and helped me fix my bog and teach me a few pointers on Photo Shop. (Let's see if I remember them.) And second I need to thank Anna for taking the fabulous family photos of us.

More coming soon!

This video almost made me pee my pants. It is hilarious!

Indiana Pacers game on a Saturday night

We told the kids they could have a choice between the Circus or an Indiana Pacers game. Tommy didn't have to think twice. He chose the basketball game hands down! Kassie on the other hand, had a very hard time deciding. In fact, she shed a few tears because she "just couldn't decide". However, it turned into a teaching moment, where we talked about how to make decisions.

We bought Family Night Tickets where you get a free hot dog, a bag a chips, a small drink, and a t-shirt. Oh, and we got a babysitter for Samantha because the game started at 7 p.m.

Here's how the night went.......

We get to the stadium parking structure and didn't have any cash. So we had to drive around until we found an ATM. Luckily it wasn't too far. But meanwhile, Kassie thinks it's the end of the world because we got there and had to leave. She quickly realized that we were going back and stopped whining. The kids were super excited about the outing with just the "big kids". When we got there and found our seats, we were pleasantly surprised that we could actually SEE the court!!! We ate our smashed hot dogs that were swimming in ketchup and mustard and got greasy fingers from our chips. The kids even got to drink an entire small Sprite all by themselves but without a consequence though. Kassie literally had to pee 6 times and Tommy twice! But hey, it's family fun night! They got to scream "GO PACERS" until they were red in the face.

(I'm really not trying to choke Tommy in this picture! I may have wanted to today at church when he was being so naughty during Sacrament meeting due to the lack of sleep because he didn't go to bed until 10 pm! Don't worry! I don't think of choking my kids!)

You know you need to bring binoculars when you sit in the "nose bleeds".
