We as a family love to do things together. Therefore once again we are sick. I asked Carson this morning where it hurt. "My nose and throat." I then asked Ian the same question. "In the closet" came his reply. I don't try to understand it, but I guess if I keep him out of the closet he will feel better.
I can't believe that Braxton is 4 months old already. I blows my mind that time has gone by so fast. Then I realize that I haven't slept in 4 months. That would explain why I'm so tired. Yesterday we gave him cereal for the first time. Here is his reaction:
He didn't really care for it and I don't think that any of it went down his throat.
In other news I think (knock on wood) that Carson is potty trained. He finally deiced to go #2 in the potty. We got him some new undies that he even wears to bed without any accidents. We will see if it continues. Ian will go #2 in the potty, but won't tell me when he needs to go #1. Goodness it's one thing or the other isn't it.
A lot has been going on the past few days. Here are some of the highlights.
-The boys woke up at 4:45 yesterday. That's right 4:45am ready to play
-Ian fell asleep on my bedroom floor yesterday for over two hours because he was so tired. My kids NEVER fall asleep like that. I wanted to take a picture, but feared that it would wake him up.
-We found out Braxton has his first ear infection yesterday. He is the first in the family to get one. The older two haven't ever been sick other than minor colds. I'm afraid this is an omen.
-Carson went #2 in the potty tonight. He even did it without me begging him to do so. After "trying" 3 times today he finally went. I'm crossing my fingers that it will continue.
-Ian refused to wear a diaper today. He HAD to wear undies. Now if he would just tell me when he needs to go.
-I joined Face book. I don't really get it, but I like to find some old friends.
-I received a calling in our new ward. I will be teaching the 9 year old primary class. Should be a lot of fun.
-I asked Carson who his best friend is and he told me Ian. I asked Ian who his best friend was and he told me Zack (his nursery leader)
Braxton is seriously the happiest baby I've had. He loves to smile, laugh, and coo the minute you look at him. 
He loves to play with his brothers. This picture is of him playing with Carson. 
Could he be any cuter?
I can't believe that Carson is a Sunbeam. Last week we were at a baby blessing so yesterday was his first day in his class. He was so excited he could barely sit still in opening exercises. He loved to color and eat cookies. The good thing was that Ian still loved going to nursery.
Last week we woke up sick. I thought it was because we stayed up for New Years Eve. (Yes, I let my kids stay up. I'm a bad mom.) Anyway, Ian was throwing up all morning. This was a first for me. My boys have been pretty healthy and haven't ever tossed their cookies. After naps he stopped but had an upset stomach the rest of the day. I started with a sore throat, and Kevin had congestion problems. Ian started feeling better after a day or so and Kev and I are still going strong. I went to the doctor on Tuesday because it was getting worse. Come to discover it is a virus, but I developed sores (kind of like cankers) in my throat. With it being a virus we can't do anything but wait for it to go away. Kevin is still struggling to keep the junk out of his lungs. Braxton woke up yesterday having a hard time breathing, and Carson has a sore throat today. We are on this wonderful soup and sprite diet. It has been a wonderful way for us to spend quality time laying on the couch watching movies
