Don't say STUPID

Okay, this just totally tells me that Zoey actually does listen to me. Lately she has had a little potty mouth, nothing bad or anything, just saying words such as the following:
Stupid
Dumb
Poopy Pants
Retard
Idiot
I know, it is horrible, don't know where she learned them...well, I know some came from me and Cory. Whenever she says any of these words I tell her, "Zoey, we don't say naughty words, don't say that again."

The other night we went to visit Cory's dad in the hospital and as we were driving home we were talking about how we feel bad for Cory's mom because she is stuck at the hospital all day doing nothing.
I said, " I feel bad for her because she is stuck watching STUPID sports all day."
Zoey says, "MOM, don't say STUPID!!"

Oh, thanks for the reminder Zoey!!

I Am a Bad Mom.....

Because I failed to get Zoey a flu shot this year AND she got it! Yep, Influenza B Virus. Zoey has been a trooper, has fought through her up to 104.2 temp and all. She has now had a fever for 7 days and the doc says it could last a few more. So, the following are how she has been spending her days cooped up in the house! It is not fun and I am hoping none of the rest of us get it.

Zoey has been wearing one of my T-shirts pretty much the whole time. She has been playing dress-up about 10 times per day. I literally have cleaned up dress-up clothes a countless number of times. Oh well, at least she is keeping herself busy!

Below is one of the ways Zoey fell asleep. She has been sleeping in my bed with me and Cory has been sleeping in her bed. Here she was watching a movie with her new Sleeping Beauty doll and fell fast asleep.

She looks so uncomfortable.

Once again, fell fast asleep on the couch watching another movie. I just thought she looked so beautiful and angelic in this picture. If only she always looked and acted like an angel!!

And here is one from today, sitting on the couch eating starbursts, her favorite candy. She ONLY eats the pink ones and leaves the rest for her dad. She is a cutie and we love her. She has definitely been a trooper! Sorry sweetie for being sick!

Colston is 6 Months

It is crazy how fast these little guys grow up! Already 6 months and still going strong. It is funny, I honestly don't remember what it was like without Colston. He has brought a lot of joy into our little family. He is always smiling and is so good natured. I can honestly say that I am very blessed to have him! He seriously only cries when he is either really hungry or tired. The only bad thing about him is he is a horrible nap taker. He only takes about 3 to 4 20 minute naps per day. I am hoping that this changes quickly because mommy needs a break. Colston is a little chubby boy who loves to laugh, and most of all adores his sister. Zoey can just be talking or doing something on her own and just watching her makes Colston laugh. It is so fun to watch them and I am so thankful for my husband to let me stay home with both of them.

Colston weighed in this month at 19 pounds which makes him in the 76th percentile for weight. He was 26 inches long which puts him in the 75th percentile and his head is in the 50th percentile.

He is hitting all of his milestones perfectly! He is a little sweetie!

We love you Colston!
