Not so cool with school

Kyla has been loving school lately,

yet just this last friday she decided school was too dangerous for her. I can see why she says this, because in the last few months I have had about 8 calls from the nurses office. And notes home from the teacher reporting yet another bruise.

Twice she has been kicked in the head as she bent down to get a ball on the playground. One kid in her class bit her, a week or so later he stepped on her during nap time causing his knee to land on her wrist and his body to fall on her head as she was sitting up. Her head smashed into the floor and gave her a goose egg on her cheek bone. ( did I tell you he is overweight?) The same day ( this last Friday) she had been knocked down in the playground and already had a bruise on her cheek next to the goose egg. And the list could go on. She gets so many bumps and bruises from school.

She had come home that day with a black eye, a goose bump on her cheek, a bruise right next to it, and a sore wrist. Her teacher walks her up to me and says "I swear we don't beat your daughter, although she does look like she had been tortured " I LOVE her teacher she is really cool!

Hopefully spring break will give her a chance to recover.

Well it has been a long time since we have written any thing on our blog. So I thought I would just post some random pictures for now.

So now we have bikes, and we love them. Especially family bike rides

Breven makes the best pillow!

Grandpa giving horse rides....all at the same time

We went to Cabella's, the kids thought the stuffed animals were very funny

Breven wants to be a cowboy. I totally agree. Cowboy hats are way to cute not to want one!

But he does look good in OU hats also.

Becky I guess was too hungry to wait for her dinner.

Chritmas pics quite late

kyla field trip n stuff

Becky's still smiling

Kyla got to go on a field trip in school and I got to go.

Kyla is the one on the far right

click on this pic and check out her face.

Chubby Cheeks! and check out those arms man, I'm a rollie polly

Already checking herself out

Kyla got this weird reaction to something, we couldn't see a bite or anything it just started swelling up. I didn't get a picture of her later, but it spread all the way down past her cheek bone. It was all red and swollen. It puffed out about a 1/4 in off her face. Kinda weird.

Breven told me he wanted to be like bat man so he put on a mask

SITTING UP! yea!

Breven all the sudden didn't like his hat going down on his forehead, so he pulled his ears out "to hold up my hat, Mom, my hat holder ears"

Some fun family pictures from the last few years. Many of these pictures were taken just as our families were beginning.

--Sorry the video is so small :( --

halloween! Halloween Halloween

Well we had fun with halloween. Or Most of us did. I didn't give Breven a nap, so he was pretty grumpy by the end of the night.

Andrew's parents came up over to celebrate with us. It was a lot of fun to have them here. And a great help also. Andrew's costume wasn't the best costume for chasing kids around.

Kyla was a butterfly fairy princess, Breven was a ghost, Becky was a bumble bee, Mom and Dad E were Sonny and Cher, I was a Gypsy, and Andrew was a puppet master.

We didn't get a lot of pictures of Breven, he was kinda a stinker that day

Becky appears to be slightly confused as to what is going on....and who in the world is holding her.
