Field Trip Day

I had two very tired kids today!!! Ike and Elle went on a field trip with school so they were gone all day (they usually just go 1/2 days) and didn't have naps. They BOTH fell asleep on the couch watching their new Diego movie (thanks Grandma) around 4:30pm. Ike must have just needed a power nap because he woke up in time for supper. Elle, on the other hand, slept through all of us trying to get her up! Joey tried so hard to wake her, and eventually succeeded!!

Ike...awake enough to eat 2 tacos, but still pretty out of it
Crazy Joey who just wanted to play with his brother and sister because he was stuck with Mom all day!!!

Time with Daddy

Of course Andy didn't want to take time to look at the camera....baseball was on!!!

What happened???

Today I woke up a bit dizzy. This is the 2nd time it has happened in the last few months, and while this time wasn't as bad as the first, I decided to go and get it checked out. I must have been feeling awfully brave because I ventured down to the local Chinese Medicine Dr (brave because I have never done this before, not because I don't trust them). He did the tests they do and then treated me. This is what my back and neck look like after his treatment (yes, that is one huge bruise)!!! He did some DEEP massage with some tool, and while it was a bit uncomfortable (ok, it hurt), my dizziness was gone. I might even go to him again if I have to. Ahhh, another big step for this missionary!

A trip leads to a fat lip!

Fun with the Bikes

Well, I finally decided it was time to buy the kids bike helmets. I know....they should have been wearing them all along, but better late than never, right??? Maybe not. Anyways, the kids LOVE them and put them on every time they go outside! We'll see how long that lasts!!

Takin' a break for a drink
Posing for the camera. Check out her "beautiful" outfit. She changed into it after school and told me that it matched because there was pink in every piece!
