Bronchitis, runny noses, blah!!

We have been pretty sick here in our household! I took the kiddos to the doctor yesterday and he said Mason has bronchitis so we had to start him on amoxicillin & breathing treatments (which he HATES!) He gave me a prescription for Millie to start on Saturday if she isn't better. Her nose is still really runny, so I'm going to start her on her medicine tomorrow. I don't want my kids to be sick for Thanksgiving...we have way to much going on!! On top of the kids being sick, I've had a sore throat & must have gotten the colds from them (I guess that's what happens when all you do is wipe snotty noses!) Zicam truly works wonders though!!

I'm sitting here at 11:30 at night browsing Amazon.com trying to come up with ideas for Christmas for the kids. What do you get for kids who seem to have everything? Here's some ideas for Mason--a train set (probably Geotrax or a thomas train), a tent, doodle pro (like a magna doodle), anything Elmo, Backyardigans, or Diego. I wish I could find some Wonder Pets stuff, but I can't find anything yet. I'll have to keep searching! Mason's kind of difficult because his birthday is 3 1/2 weeks after Christmas! From us, he's getting his "big boy bed & bedding" and a big Tonka Dump Truck & Fire Engine. For his birthday, we'll probably get him a train set & a couple of things for his room. (We're trying to decide between vintage rockets & vintage airplanes as the theme for his room.)

For Millie--She is the HARDEST to figure out!! She has all of Mason's toys...and they are all still available in the stores. The kid seriously has all of the really cool toys! Ideas for her are--The Fisher Price Baby Grand Piano, Praise Baby DVD's, soft baby dolls (Disney has some princess ones), Gund has a my first purse that's pretty cute. I just hate to get more "big" toys because we are running out of room at our house! I'll have to keep searching! :)

Tyler hunted and hunted while we were in Sesser, and didn't get a deer. But, I had a ton of fun hanging out with Jessica & the kiddos!! Thanks Jessica for letting us crash your house and eat all of your food!! Wait till you guys see all of the sweet pics she took of Millie (actually...go to her site www.jessicahollisphotography.com and go to the children & fun site. There are some on there!) I'm going to post a layout here in just a sec of some pics of Mason and I during the photoshoot. I'm so glad to see Jessica's business take off like it is...she truly deserves it!

Scrapbooking news...I know...just what you all want to hear about, but it's kind of what consumes my thoughts/time! :) The frog layout of mine won layout of the week for the digi dare site last week. (I can't believe I'm just now posting this...that was last Friday!) I was so excited to see I had been chosen again!

Did you notice the new design to the blog?? What do you think of it? The blog header was made with Nikki Meador's Inspire Me Mini-kit (www.scrapwithnikki.com) It's such a pretty set! (and those are some cute kiddos in the blog header, don't you think?) I'm not sure I'm 100% happy with the new blog layout, but it took a lot of time to do, so it'll be here for a little while!

OK...wanna see some new layouts??
I took this picture of Mason the other day & loved it!

These are some pics Jessica took. Mason would not cooperate & threw a huge fit. I tried to calm him down & that's when these pics were taken...just wish I had on make-up! :) I think they turned out really sweet!

Can't leave out Millie...here are a couple of her!

I don't think I've put this one on here yet...if I did already, forgive me! :)
