The flu, a new oven, and a bird house

This last week has been one that I could forget and be alright with.
It started out Monday with Tavin getting the flu at first we thought it had something to do with some bad milk but as a fever and more vomiting we deducted it was the flu. So I spent the day on the couch with Tavin either sleeping or throwing up, luckily for Mclane and I Adrian had the day off to help.
Tuesday Tavin was feeling a bit better just a bit tired.On Wednesday Mclane got sick and as far as boys not being good at being sick he is the worst. That was the beginning of the bad day Tavin started not feeling well again (the dreaded runny poos) Tuesday I was having my new oven delivered. Our old stove pooped out on me the week before, we ordered a gas stove seeing as when we bought the house we were told it was a gas/electric hook up. well I found out the hard way when they came to deliver and hook up my new oven it was only electric!! all while my child is throwing up in a bucket down stairs.
Well this is the new oven, we had a guy come the next day and hook up the gas line (again while I had a sick child down stairs) and the oven guys came back the next day to hook up the oven. and yes you guessed it while they were hooking it up Tavin threw up Right in front of them!!
On Friday Mclane and Tavin were feeling much better and Mclane remembered that he wanted to build a bird house with his dad. They used the old fencing that Dreako knocked down.
As you can see Adrian did most of the building.

Mclane got to pick out the paint and paint it himself. Don't you just love the color?

He made sure that Adrian and I didn't help with the painting. He would hold up his hand and say " this is my bird house I don't need help".

here is Adrian not helping but wanting to rather badly.

This is the finished product, Mclane got board after about 20 minuets so Adrian finished it.

So far we haven't seen any birds I think it has something to do with the color, we even added some seed to entice the birds.

I had to add this picture of Adrian, I got an apron for cutting the boys hair but Mclane only likes Adrian to cut his hair so he gets to wear my purple apron :~)

Trip to Utah

This last weekend we headed home to Utah, for some relaxing.... kinda!

As you can see from Tavin's face it is a long drive and the boys were ready to get there, and so where Adrian and I. After one boy having a potty accident an other throwing up twice and a puppy getting car sick( he was in the back in a kennel) it made an eight hour drive much longer.

We are always happy to get to see family Mclane and Bostyn are best buds they love to do every thing together. Mclane was worried that Bostyn wouldnt be there.
Rub a dub dub three kids in a tub, who do you think they be..
I did say they like to do every thing together. One day Erin and I will show this to their future spouses!

Mclane showing off his mighty muscles by lifting Aunt Erin with his legs.
Not to be out done Bostyn lifts her mom with just her toes!! What strong talented kids!!?
Do you believe it???
The first day there Adrian and Mclane got Aunt Katie to get her Wii out and we spent two days playing it. It is so fun to watch the kids Bowl or box each other.
For those of you who read our blog on a regular basis you will know Adrian got his but kicked at boxing by his Grandpa well here he is loosing to a three year old. Adrian was rather excited to see my sisters hubby Jordan they are great friends and like to get into trouble when ever they are together.

As you can see we played the Wii till all the kids fell asleep..
Well most of them any way.

We love to get to go home and see every one and it was even more fun to get to have Adrian with us. It has been over a year since he has been around my side of the family. We cant wait to get to head back and have more fun.

Random pictures

So I have had a few pictures that I thought were cute and wanted to post
One day Mclane had decided that he wanted to go to Panguitch to see every one (mostly Camri, Alyssa, and G&G Shish) So he packed up his little suit cases and told me he was going to miss me but he had to go, and I could come for a visit.
This is one of Mclane showing off his cap pistols that Grandpa Shish gave him when he was a baby. We had put them in a box when we moved from Washington and three years later we found them. He was so excited.

Just a cute picture of Tavin in the truck.

My smiley hubby

And a happy Mclane on our way back from getting our new puppy.

Tavin loves to play with every ones shoes, Daddy's boots are his favorite. So I was helping him walk around in them and Adrian took a picture.

1..2..3.. Jump!! yaaa Tav.

I have recently discovered that a puppy can be used as a training tool for children. Our cute little puppy is a destroyer of things left on the floor.
I kept telling Mclane that when we got the puppy he couldn't leave his toys laying around or the puppy would get them and chew them up.
(and yes his head is stuck in the oatmeal bucket)

Well it is working I tell Mclane " you better get that before Kenai dose" and he runs and puts it away. It makes the other parts of having a puppy a little easier.
