Emmie LOVED the carousel!
Riley went to Boo at the Zoo as a Princess
Logan went to Boo at the Zoo as a hunter. He was bothered that he didn't have a gun...
Little Miss Pig-tails! It's finally long enough to pull up - at last.
4 1/2 months already! Carson rolls both ways and scoots himself across the floor, Brady rolls...sometimes...and watches Carson.
Last night we went to Boo at the Zoo - without the babies. Just a big kids' night with Momma. It was fun (except for counting heads after dark).
My little unicorn
They loved it!
Emmie loved the carousel but held on for dear life

Carson sounds better today. By the way, he didn't have pneumonia/mycoplasm/whatever it's called. The official diagonsis is "bronchiolitis." Anyway, he was checked this morning and sounds better, though wheezy. He's happy as a little clam though.

Carson's home
Carson is home from the hospital. I'm glad to see him better. I took him to the clinic Saturday morning at about 8:30 and the doctor sent us on to the ER, and then he was admitted that afternoon. Through that whole day he was as sweet as he could be, flirting with everyone who came in the room and pretty much his cheerful self. Sunday was rougher, and he wasn't really doing well with his breathing. That night he had some oxygen and was able to sleep a lot of the night with me holding him upright, and then seemed to turn the corner Monday morning. He's still wheezy and full of snot but is more like himself. I'm really thankful to be home! Arkansas Children's Hospital is just another world.
While I was in the ER I listened to a podcast by an NPR guy who has cancer, and he was commenting on how when you're in the hospital it becomes a microcosm - and it's hard to imagine life going on as normal in the outside world. It feels so isolated! I spent Sunday basically on the edge of my seat either holding Carson or watching him get suctioned and breathing treatments, or just watching him sleep and watching his oxygen levels go lower and lower. I'm really thankful that he came through it and we're home. The hospital was also a window into a world totally different that the one I'm used to - we had some really interesting people sharing our room. Let's just say that not all people are kind and thoughtful of others...
Brady is sick, not to the level Carson was, but was up much of the night. He's just stuffy and junky in his nose and coughing and kind of miserable. Emmie and Riley have a touch of it, but seem better already since yesterday.
To those of you who prayed for us - thank you.

I just stopped Logan to tell him something trivial, which apparently he didn't want to hear about because he said, "Just let me mind my own business." Cracked me up.

the sweetness
Emmie alternately entertains and terrorizes the twins
he yanks out the pacifier then screams in frustration
Brady likes to grab his "binky buddie" and yank it out
my slew of children
Mom & Dad - married 51 crazy years
Emmie and her "Grammie Grammie Gram!" as she called her all week
there was a huge double rainbow last week - Em wanted to know where the pot of gold was

Em - Oh! I hate my tongue! My tongue has a yucky taste on it!
Me - Why, did you put something on it?
Em - Just my bubbles.
The other day Logan said to me, "Momma, we're more closely related to you than to Dad because we grew in your tummy. Right?"

Love the shirts, GInny. Deb - these are the pants you got them and the boys are already too chubby! They wore them Sunday but just barely fit
he sucks on whatever fingers or thumbs he can get
I feel like I could sleep standing up too
This is how I feel - and she only has ONE!
Emmie loved this one little baby goat and was not happy with the big goats that kept crowding him out...
Logan with his new friend
