Don't you want to visit our house?

We have had a whole lot of interesting illnesses going round our house lately.
Here's a brief run down:
Corbin:
1. scratched finger that set up an infection in his lymph nodes
2. Roseola
Matthew:
1. Had surgery to have a cyst removed from inside his lower lip. Everything was good until early the next morning when he woke up with a high fever and severe swelling. After visiting two ERs he was finally sent home with steroids and antibiotics...which leads me to number two.
2. He broke out in a rash from head to toe. After Corbin just getting over Roseola we just knew he had the same thing. Wrong! He was having a delayed allergic reaction to his antibiotic.
Ann Elise:
1. Went to the doctor on Friday and was diagnosed with your average run of the mill ear infection.
2. Went back to the doctor on Saturday after running a high fever and was sent home with multiple diagnoses of ear infection, strep throat and the flu.
Oh, and during all of this Matt had the stomach bug and I had a mystery illness that involved a high white blood count, two doctor visits and a cat scan.
Don't you want to come on over to my house? No? I can't imagine why not. :)

Ten Months Old

Our Little Miss Leecie is ten months old today and to celebrate the occasion she decided to debut her latest trick...climbing! Matt & I were sitting in the living room and looked over to find AE standing on top of her superstar mirror. She was so proud she had to show us her new feat over and over and over again. I was hoping this was one trait she wouldn't inherit from her mama, yes her mama. I was such a climber when I was a young one so very long ago. Matthew and Corbin both inherited my keen ability to scale things in the blink of an eye and I was really hoping that Leecie would be a little more down to earth. :)
I am in disbelief that ten months has come around so quickly and then I realize that Matthew is ten years old and I think I had better start researching time travel so I can be sure to get the most out of the precious time I have with my husband and children. Why is it that the older we get the quicker the years go by?

Leecie reigning over all...

Out of the Box

Leecie got a new kitchen set for Christmas and of course the best part was the BOX it came in...bet you didn't see that coming. My kids are such a cliche. They have played in and out of that box more than AE has played with her kitchen.

This girl will do anything to get to her pacie...even if that means going into a dark scary cave, I mean box.

Corbin trying his very best to fit in the box. I can still remember when he WAS small enough to fit.

Me & My Daddy

Hi, Ann Elise here, just checking in. Have I told all you bloggers how much I love my daddy? My daddy is the bestes daddy in the whole wide world. He plays with me and rocks me to sleep every night. I love you daddy!!!!!!!!

Daddy is a little camera shy at times but trust me, he's holding my hands as we dance in the kitchen in my brand new Tinker Bell night gown. I saw this in the store with my mommy and I just had to have it.

Don't I look cute?

These next two pictures are of me curled up in my daddy's lap ready for beddy-by-land. My mommy was trying out a new feature on her camera. What do you think? I know already...you think I am just precious.

Everybody thinks that. :)

Random Pix

My hot dog has a first name is O-S-C-A-R.
My hot dog has a second name it's M-A-Y-E-R.
We were driving through Tupelo a couple of weeks ago and to our surprise we found not one but two Oscar Mayer Wiener Mobiles parked behind a Mexican restaurant. I didn't know they served hot dog tacos. Ewe...could you imagine if that were true? Gross!

She absolutely loves that lion. She will even roar on cue.

Munchin' with the Martins

We were blessed enough this past Sunday to get to have lunch with Matt's family. It was especially nice to get to visit with Loyce.

You scream.
I scream.
We all scream for ICE CREAM.
AE: I was visiting Mommy at work today and I decided to give her ice cream a try. WOWIE! Is that stuff good or what? I really just couldn't get enough of it.

Maybe I will just touch it first...

Lip-Smacking Good!
