~Christmas~ WAY LATE!!!
I am finally getting around to posting Christmas Pictures. We celebrated with my sister and her husband before leaving for WI where we celebrated with Daddy's side of the family and then PA, where we celebrated with my side of the family. It was a fast safe drive to PA with hardly any traffic and NO SNOW!! The kids slept most of the way. We arrived in PA Christmas morning and the kids were so excited to open gifts, so my brother, Daddy and I had to suffer no showers and little sleep while we opened gifts. It was not bad, just took a long time as we have such a growing family.My older sister, her husband and their son joined us while we stayed there too!! We had such a great time visiting and playing with everyone!
After we played a few days with all of our new toys we decided to see some sites, even though it was a little chilly out!! My sister found out there is a Crayola factory in PA, so we scoped it out and had a great day exploring the whole hands-on, child friendly factory. The kids had a blast drawing on walls, making cards and bags, playing with modeling clay, getting souvenir markers and coloring on the floors with chalk. Above the factory the have a child friendly museum where they had fun playing in water, playing with blocks, looking at trains and big ships and learning about damns and bridges.
So there is our Christmas post. Next I have to post Our Little Guys birthday parties!! Hopefully I can do that tomorrow!! Have fun looking!

Our first (playable) snowfall!!
We finally had/have enough snow to play in. The boys were so excited to wake up and find the yard covered in snow this morning. However all of our snow gear is MIA at the moment,(can't imagine why?? LOL) so I just dressed them all really warm and we were only out about 10 minutes. It was really cold, but they all enjoyed every second of it. Here are some pictures, this was Gianna's first time in the snow and she was a little afraid at first and then thought it was great.

finally Moved IN!!
Last Friday we closed on the new house and started moving in. After a bunch of late nights, unpacking, sorting and organizing we are finally moved in. I have not found the charger for the camera battery yet so I have no new pictures. I ordered a new one off ebay that should be here soon!! Yesterday we bought a new washer and dryer, I am so excited about doing laundry now!! I know it is weird to say but Nic has promised me for a long while then when we bought a new house he would buy me a new washer and dryer. I know it is something extra that he didnt have to do, he could have bought some older, used ones off Craigslist. Here is the link for the ones he bought for me, http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_02627712000P?mv=rr We hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving Day!! Happy Eating and then Happy SHOPPING!!!!

A little bit scary......
I am going to tell the whole story, just so you get all the details. However for those that cant wait until the end I will give the outcome now and then tell the rest. Friday night our little Princess had a Febrile Seizure.
Now from the beginning.... I had taken the kids to McDonalds to play after we had spent the day in the house cleaning and packing. While we were at McD's I notice princess had a low grade fever, but I just figured it was due to her teething, plus I didnt have any Tylenol with me anyway. So we drive home, I unload the kids and we go into the house. Meanwhile Daddy had just gotten home and was talking on his phone in the car, a common practice as sometimes the house can be pretty loud. I was turning on the outside lights to let Stanley outside and all the sudden princess was on the floor and let out a little cry. I had thought she had fallen, as she does alot now because she is still learning. I picked her up her legs twitches a little and her head and eyes both went to the side and she closed her eyes. So I gently jiggled her and called her name, she opened her eyes and looked at me and then laid her head on my shoulder. So I run outside to Daddy and get him off the phone. We called our doctor and he said to take her into the ER as she might have hit her head on the floor. (At this point I still had thought she had fallen.) So we rush everyone into the car, call some good friends to take the boys to and then we were off to the hospital.
At the hospital they took her temperature, blood pressure and monitored her heart rate. Her temp was 102.3 at that time. Higher then what I thought it was. Then the doctor came in and checked her ears, they were both infected. So they gave her a shot of antibiotics, a tylenol suppository and then did a CT scan. The scan came back negative so they gave us a prescription for Augmentan and told us to give her Tylenol and/or motrin around the clock. They said between the ear infections and the high temperature is why she seized. However once they have a seizure it is likely they will have another.
So we are just watching her very closely for the next few days and going to see her doctor on the 16th. Jeepers things can go from great to grim in a matter of seconds!!
Her fever finally broke last night and she is coming back around to her normal self.
Daddy and I were both a little nervous when all of this happened, we are relieved to know she is ok.

Pumpkin Carving!!
(I started this post on Tuesday morning, I am just getting around to finishing it!)
Last night we carved our pumpkins!! The kids had such a great time doing it. It is was so much fun seeing them get so into it. Daddy always does the majority of the carving, we draw the face and then he carves it out!!I should mention there is a picture of Princess crying, she was VERY afraid of the pumpkins from the moment I brought them into the house until Daddy cut hers open and let her feel and see it. Here are the pictures!!
