Jack-O-Lantern, Addict, Old self, New Baby

Madison has been losing teeth like crazy! We're up to 5 lost now. She's looking a bit like a jack-o-lantern if you ask me....

Hannah is addicted to her DSi. We have rules and my kids aren't on it all the time. Saturday they hadn't played on them so as I'm passing their room upstairs and taking a quick glance to see if they had fallen asleep (it was bedtime) I see a glowing duvet in Hannah's bed. I had to run downstairs get the camera and then back up again to take a picture....too bad I kept the flash on. So you get to see Hannah's face. I couldn't get mad, it actually made me laugh. I had to give her credit, she was trying to do it under her covers....too bad her covers are white...sneaky sneaky.Isabella is once again smiling. Hannah came into the kitchen while I was cooking dinner and asks, "Mom, what happened to Isabella?"

"What do you mean?"

"She's smiling again!"

So cute....she told us the other day she was really concerned since Isabella wasn't smiling like she always use to. My poor kiddo...things are looking up again though so we're hoping this antibiotic will just kill everything that is keeping her sick.

I also have a new beautiful niece! She's adorable and I can't wait to meet her! She was born yesterday, February 22nd and was 7 lbs 1 oz. I may get to go out to Salt Lake City for a week or so in a couple of weeks so I'm pretty excited if I do get a chance....not under the circumstances of course. She's having some complications right now...so we have Kenadi as well as her family in our prayers. I'll also get to see my nephew...I think he thinks I'm just a voice on the phone. My sister is a star and is doing great considering what she's dealing with. I admire her and her family....isn't it funny how the sister you grew up not liking very much can become one of your best friends even though you're thousands of miles away. I guess that's what happens sometimes when you grow up....at least a little bit.
