Sickies

We have been sick this year, which doesn't help that my new year's resolution was "Healthy," but it isn't even close to what is was last year, so I will take that as a success!

Greyson has had Croup 4 times since Christmas, but luckily we have given him Nebulizer treatments every time and cough medicine and that has kicked it right out of him. Just this last time, we did have to get him the steroid treatment, but no ER visits (except Christmas) so that has been really nice.

Garett now has Croup, but Nebulizer treatments and cough medicine for him should do the trick.

Gavin has had sore throats and a cough for a while now, it comes a goes. I think he just gets really run down fast and needs to recoup every now and then.

All 3 of them have had the colds and Garett had RSV at the end of January, but we are all growing up and fighting our illnesses better! Yay for that!

Home Depot February Preschool Trip

This Month for Greyson's Preschool Field Trip, we went to Home Depot. They build these floating boxes to promote Kung Fu Panda 3. Greyson had fun making his and getting an apron and pin.

Growing Up

This boy is getting so big for his high chair, but I don't want to move him to the table with us yet. It is like that in between stage where he is too big for the high chair/grocery shopping cart, but not big enough/old enough to be on his own at the table or walking around the grocery store.

They grow up so fast!

Binky Bear

A couple Weekends ago, we took Garett to the Mall to Build A Bear with one of his binkies for him to put it in his bear. We have taken Gavin and Greyson to Build A Bear in the past and let them pick out their own stuffed animal from us, and it was Garett's turn. So it was a double hit getting him his bear from us and getting rid of the binkys. He picked the Camo bear and we put the binky in it, and now he loves his bear, and doesn't want to go anywhere without it.

Valentines Day

For Valentine's Day this year the boys picked out Ring Pops and we attached a note to them about their Valentines being Gems. Gavin wrote out 30 and Greyson wrote out 11. He is getting better at writing his name.

On Valentines, we made these Strawberry Waffles that were so yummy, and the boys actually loved them. We will have to make them again soon. Other than that, we had a really low key Valentine's together.

Old Boy's Room Remodel

This should be a 2015 blog post, but oh well. So after we moved the boys out of their old room, we moved the computer into their room and made it the office/computer room/craft room/movie/book room, all of thee above room. So we painted it so we wouldn't have to worry about moving everything out of it to do that before/if we move. So here is the before and after!

It was a baby blue color

We painted it a Mint Green Color

Selfie

These boys. They always want to take selfies.

Cuties!

Krispy Kreme Field Trip

Last Thursday, the 21st of January, Greyson had his Krispy Kreme Field Trip. This is always a favorite because you can look at the cool machine that makes the doughnuts and see them being made through the whole process. Greyson and Garett loved it and of course loved the doughnut they get, and of course we have to get a dozen to take back for Gavin and Mike.

Garett Stats

I have been completely horrible when it comes to blogging about Garett's stats, so here I will just put it all in one place:

6 Months - 7/28/2014 he was 17.5 lbs and 26 inches height for 38% and 22%
9 Months - 10/2/2014 he was 19.68 lbs and 28 inches height for 40% and 48%
1 Year - 1/12/2015 he was 20.4 lbs and 29 inches height for 16% and 25%
13 Months - 2/15/2015 he was 20.5 lbs and 29.72 inches height for 11% and 31%
15 Months - 4/30/2015 he was 22.4 lbs and 30 inches height for 17% and 13%
18 Months - 7/8/2015 he was 24 lbs and 30.5 inches height for 25% and 8%
19 Months - 8/5/2015 he was 24.01 lbs for 21%
20 Months - 9/10/2015 he was 26.24 lbs and 31.69 inches height for 45% and 16%
21 Months - 10/2/2015 he was 26.8 lbs and 32.25 inches height for 49% and 22%
2 Years - 1/21/2016 he was 28.2 lbs and 33.75 inches height for 52% and 30%

He has grown quite a bit and is I think the biggest of my 2 year olds.

Ice Castles

Last weekend, to celebrate Garett's and Mike's birthdays, we went up to Soldier Hollow in Midway to see the Ice Castles. The boys had the best time looking at them and wandering through them. They had ice slides and snow to play in. It was every boys dream. They had so much fun. After about an hour walking around and seeing everything, we headed back to Heber and ate lunch with Mike's mom. It was a great Saturday to get out and explore while celebrating Mike and Garett's birthdays!
