My sons all together

One of these kids is doing his own thing.

Cooie poses for candy

I had to get out of the house and escape the sick kids. Cooie will do what I want for bribes. This time it was a piece of candy.

Collin has slight Pneumonia

The ER visit was a good call since Collin has slight Pneumonia. He seems to be getting better today. Looks like we will be taking it easy this week.

I can't believe it's November

Muuuwaaaaa!

Hey Collin.... do I look as cute as I think I do?






Halloween was crazy busy. Collin had his Halloween party, we carved our pumpkins and went trick-or-treating. I have eaten too much candy and wish it would all go away. The boys are getting sick. Tony is on his was to the ER with Collin at the moment. His breathing was just a little too labored for me, he's fine but we just want to be sure it's not in his lungs. I will update in the morning. It seems someone is sick every other week around here.

Halloween Party for Collin

Collin had a blast at school today, it was the Halloween party! It's so much fun to see the kids all dressed up in costume. Collin decorated his pumpkin he picked out from the pumpkin patch last Tuesday, made mini pizza (for mommy to eat) and walked thru the church showing off his Robin costume. Before leaving the house Collin received tons of giggles from little bro. I happily removed Mr. Peanut in the car........I was roasting! Tee hee. Happy Halloweenie to all!!!

Another Emergency room visit

Cameron had his first ER visit on Friday. He had 3 stitches in his forehead. I was in the other room and did not see what he did. Collin told me he hit his head on the Ottoman leg. We bought a cushy Ottoman instead of a coffee table thinking we would avoid injury. Leave it to one of my dare devils to hurt themselves on what I consider to be the softest item in the house. Go figure! The ER nurses took little Cameron, Velcro his arms, legs and body into a little papoose. I stood helpless looking only at his little Roobez shoes as they poked out the bottom. He was so upset he kept gasping for air. It had to be done, but it was still hard. His laceration is pretty small actually. I am happy he got the stitches to better his chance of no scar. You can see from the picture he isn't too phased by it now. The roses are from guess who.

We've moved

We finally moved.....yippee! It is so nice a peaceful and the kids are loving the backyard, as you can see. I love clean babies, so this is hard for me. I am trying VERY hard to let little boys be boys. How am I doing? The boys love the new place and so do I. It may not be our dream home but I can honestly say it's a pleasant change from Rancho.

I ran into the most friendly Beaver today!

Today I decided to take my camera out for some sight seeing. I had no idea I would run into a friendly beaver. I have photos to prove it!

Just photos today...enjoy!

La última y más noticias

Made you wonder if you had the right blog didn't I! It's still My 3 sons, ha ha!

The latest and greatest news....if you were trying to translate!

So here it goes.......................................................................

The house we have been waiting almost 5 months to buy....is not going to happen! I will spare the details but basically the title had liens and could not process without those being cleared up by the previous owner. All is well, since Tony and I found a WONDERFUL home. We are getting financing in order and we may be able to put an offer on this one.....nothing is for sure. At this point, I just keep thinking something is stopping us from buying a house right now. It's been a crazy roller coaster and it's making me sick. The boys are great and healthy.

  I just love Cammy's little head and this photo shows it off nicely. Plus I can't resist a baby in Oshkosh overalls.

  Collin and Cooie having a brotherly moment. Cooie is of course very serious as he tells Collin that he is going to kick the Hawks butt. It was really a crow they heard, but I kept that to myself. Don't ask me where he heard about kicking butt, but maybe we should have a conversation about that.....add it to my list!

Went to Spokane for some fun with our buds

Our good friends Jake, Janelle, Caleb and Emily had myself and all the boys over for a sleepover. The day started out at Greenbluff, the Apple Orchard we visited before moving, it was the "deydrated pea" place. You may remember the story about the pea in Collin's nose.
Cameron just loved it! We would hear these little giggles from him as he was diving in. It was a great visit! Thank you for having us.

So Dramatic...Geeeeesssshh

Look's like Cammy is a baby for halloween! How original.

Meet my lil Chipmunk, Alvin

Alvin.........I mean Cameron, is proud to announce the arrival of tooth #5 and possibly #6.

I don't remember Collin and Connor growing up as fast as Cameron is. He is so determined to be like the older boys. He is by far the most fearless out of the bunch. He climbs the bunk bed ladder, chairs, and oh man does he love standing up high. I am fearful he is an adrenaline junky! He climbs on top of the toy box and looks at me with this grin of total accomplishment and excitement. When I can't see Cameron, I get very nervous.

I need to remember that life is unexpected

Almost a year ago, Collin woke up sick. I just thought, oh it's Hives. Yet another "thing" we picked up along the way. Everyday I think about how awful it was sleeping next to my first baby in a hospital bed. Not knowing what was wrong or if he was going to have a life changing disease. Cameron remains a constant "what if" and yet they are all so wonderfully healthy. I read about freak accidents or terminal illnesses everyday (yeah, I know.....that's my first problem). Yet, every day we complain about silly minuscule things. They may seem big to us in the moment, but they are not! So, here's the challenge. Start a fresh day and say NOTHING negative, to yourself or your loved ones. See, if you can bite your tongue for one entire day. I tried this myself and was not successful, but it was a fun challenge non the less. It made me really see what I need to work on. Maybe, add to the challenge everyday and see if eventually you get thru an entire day of a new "positive" you! While I was sick in bed, I was able to catch John Edwards, Crossing over. I liked what he said about living in the now (righting our wrongs), because we can't change anything when we are gone.

Flowers from my SWEET boys!

I received flowers from my boys today! They picked them out because they had my favorite color "pink". These are so special to me, I had to document and preserve them for ever and ever. These came in especially handy since I have had an aweful head cold and I got a burn on my thumb from my straight iron. I have had frozen mixed veggies on my hand for the last 5 hours and counting. OUCH, this hurts!

This is my 100th Post....Wow

This post sets "my 3 sons" blog at "100" posts and I can't believe it! I must say, this blog has really helped me get thru some rough patches. It's nice to share and know that other people are interested in my little family. I know you are all stopping by even in you don't post comments. So, thank you for checking in.

Cooie loves lolly pops, what kid doesn't right! I used this one as a bribe to get some pictures of him. Man, was he cooperative. When we got to Walgreen's, I told him they had lolly pops as big as his head......I don't think he believed me. When I showed it to him, his eyes grew big and he said....."it is as big as my head, mommy". Oh, how lovely to be 3 and just loose yourself in a sugary mass of goodness, the size of your head.

PW's B&W Action:
These days you don't get a photo of this little man without his tongue. Not sure if it's a nervous thing or if he's just being goofy.

I got some ACTIONS.......

Actions in CS3 that I have been dying to try out and I am having so much fun. This one is from Pioneer Woman, she is wonderful!!!! You can check her out on "the blogs I visit" section.

Please comment and tell me what you think, I am dying to get some CC. I have a bit of an orange color cast going on, but otherwise, I think the action looks fun and colorful. The more and more I play with it too...right!

The first image is SOOC (straight out of camera)

Finally........

The results from the ultrasound and the AFP test came back. It looks like Cameron has...................Gas! Tee hee

Everything came back normal, even the gas is normal. Just like we all knew it would. So, here's to good health to my little Cammy Poo for the time being and have a great day.

The kids played with Spidy today!

It was Cousin Cooper's 5Th B-day and Grammy got Spider Man for the party. What a hit he was, even Tony had fun with Spidy. Collin up until this was always afraid of people in costume. I will never forget pulling up to a stop light and looking to my right. "Hey Collin, look it's Little Caesar!" He screamed so loud, Tony and I could not contain our laughter. He was about 2, so it took him that long to get over it. I am not sure, maybe it's just Spider Man he likes.

Getting some practice in for some October Jobs

Well, I am taking on some jobs for October, so Collin is my little poser. He is a good sport and when he's done he tell's me, "mom you get 2 more shots -k-"!
