Our Blog

So I have seen so many great blogs from our friends that I decided to jump on the band wagon and create one for our family as well. It seems like an easy way to keep everyone updated and something for me to do while the girlies are napping. :) So here goes my first post.

First of all I have to mention that Brant really wanted to name this blog "Poopinmyear" but I decided against that because well I wanted this to be a blog about our family and not sound like something disgusting. However I am sure in the future Brant will be posting something that he thinks is funny and witty so that is my disclaimer for him. :)

We are ready for winter and sickness to be over with! Last week I had the stomach flu and this week Brayden has had a fever for the last 3 days and a wonderfully runny nose. Ayla has also had a runny nose but I think that may be due to the fact that another tooth has come in. This is her second one so now both her bottom front teeth are in. YEAH! Solid foods here we come and hopefully sleeping through the night will follow ugh! She is 7 months now OMG time goes by so fast. Faster I think with the second kid than the first.

This weekend another cousin has a birthday. The month of January is full of family birthdays for us to celebrate. Such a fun time for us all to get together and one of the many reasons why we moved back to Minnesota so we didn't have to miss them. This weekend happens to be Onika's birthday which is the closest in age to Brayden. She turns 3. Onika is Brayden's little partner in crime although I shouldn't really say that, they don't get into trouble together YET. :) They do LOVE to play dress up and trade socks and shoes whenever they have the chance though.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ONIKA!
Hopefully noone will be sick for the festive celebration. (knock on wood).

Well that is all I have for my first blog ever. I hope everyone is staying warm and healthy! Have a great week.
