New Family Pics
Dennis' sister Wendy asked him to take some pictures of her family. Since he set up the "studio," I decided to get some pictures of our family as well. I think the kids took some exceptional pictures of Dennis and me as well. Check it out:
February 2009
February was a rough month. Nothing major, but I was out of sorts, obviously not posting, so these first few pictures reflect the month we had.
Last weekend Aspen had a major allergic reaction to something. The poor thing was miserable. Turned out she had a double ear infection in her left ear that exacerbated the allergic reaction. We spent the day Monday at the doctor and then spending $100 on new detergent, soap, lotion, cream, and antibiotics. Whoa! Hopefully we can figure out what it was before she looks like this again:
The day after my exciting ski excursion, I tripped in the garage on Shaylee's scooter. I've always been a lovely bruiser--ouch! (For reference, this picture is just below my knee, and was taken almost two weeks after the accident).
We decided to take a trip to the pet store rather than paying to freeze our toes off at the zoo. We came home with a cute new fish, El Negro, but he didn't last the month. Poor guy!
Shaylee had a birthday! This was one of the highlights of the month (oh, except that she's now 15 and eligible to get a driving permit--yikes!). I think she had a fun week. The Sunday before her birthday we had a fun dinner with Grandma Pearson. On her birthday the family had some yummy fondue. Then the Sunday after her birthday Dennis' family came over for our monthly FHE and we celebrated again. She got clothes, duh, some yummy candy, and a new digital camera from mom and dad. She's almost finished with her Young Womanhood Recognition award so she can get that driving permit--one skirt left to finish (we're so close!!!).
For President's Day, I took the kids up to Mrs. Cavanaugh's Chocolate Factory in North Salt Lake. They give factory tours, but neglected to tell us that no one was working that day, so we got to watch some fun videos about how the chocolate is made, sample some yummy chocolate, and enjoy some quality time together.
Shaylee whacked off her hair, and it looks darling, of course.
Connor just likes the bleachers.
Our neighbor made Aspen some new hair bows--aren't they darling?

Devin has been playing basketball and really enjoying it, but I think he's ready for soccer to start again.
