Sick Kiddos

Okay so since last weekend Avery just seemed to get worse, she is such a mellow baby and hardly ever cries so when she was so grumpy on Monday and Tuesday we knew something was wrong! Wednesday morning we took her to the doctor and sure enough DOUBLE EAR INFECTION! Ahhh I hate ear infections! Jaxson had like 4 or 5 by the time he was one and I thought we were doing really good with Avery being almost 8 months and not a single ear infection. So after we left the doctors office we headed to Wal-Mart to pick up her perscription, it wasn't quite ready yet so we just shopped around a little. Next thing I know Jaxson looks up at me and says, "Mom, I didn't poop my pants!" I'm thinking OH CRAP that means he pooped his pants! He's been potty trained for 6 months and NEVER had an accident, WHAT! We headed back to the bathrooms and sure enough DIARREAH all the way through to his jeans! I had this brilliant idea to wash his pants out in the sink and dry them with the hand dryer, well it was a good idea until I had the pants all washed and realized the dryer was BROKEN! So here I have soaking wet pants and a naked boy, poor thing felt so bad he just kept saying, "i'm so sorry mom." So I wrapped him up in Avery's blanket and headed out into the store to buy him some new undies and some cheap sweat pants. We paid for them then went back to the bathroom to get him all changed. As I was picking up the perscription he is telling me that he is so tired and that he wants to go home to take a nap, then I knew something was wrong, anyone that knows Jaxson knows that he would not VOLUNTARILY take a nap! We finally get in the car to drive home and on the way home Jaxson is telling me he is SO hungry, a few seconds later PUKE!!! Yes, he threw up EVERYWHERE; all over himself, his carseat, the floor! I was kind of shocked because he seemed totally fine all day up until just a few minutes before that. So now we have two sick kids and if that's not enough I started getting sick last night, nothing worst than being sick with sick kids! Good thing I have a great husband that helps SO much! I hadn't got around to folding my clean laundry that had been piling up and I came home last night from work and it was all folded and the house was all clean, not to mention while he was taking care of our sick kids! I'm so lucky, thanks babe, I love you!

Jaxson with his throw up bucket handy! Deven bought him that new movie Bolt to watch while he's sick and he LOVES it, as soon as it ends he asks if he can watch it again.

Discovery Gateway

Last weekend we went down to Salt Lake and went to this place called Disovery Gateway. It's a children's museum where everything is hands on and it was so much fun, Jaxson loved it!

His favorite part of course was the WATER! Dev put the little poncho cover on him put that didn't seem to help much. By the time we got him to do something else he was soaked!

They had a little grocery store where they could shop then check themselves out at the cash register. So cute! A grocery store that mom actually let him pick things off the shelves.

Jaxson thought he was pretty cool to dress up like a fireman, doesn't he make such a cute little man in uniform! Our friends Brad and Carly came with us and that is their little Alex, Jaxson's buddy.

Jaxson got to sit in a life size helicopter and pretend he was driving it, he couldn't quite reach the floor pedals so he got down and pressed them with his hands. CRASH!!!

This little construction site was so cool. They lifted the building blocks up with the crane then built buildings, knocked them down, and threw the blocks down the shoot. As you can see Deven enjoyed this one just as much as Jax did!

Avery just hung out with me the whole time, she wasn't feeling very good (next post) so she was pretty cuddly and slept a lot of the time. Poor girl, she looks like she doesn't feel good in this picture! And if that wasn't bad enough we went to eat a California Pizza Kitchen for lunch and I was holding her while I was eating. I had drank most of my water and went to get another sip and tilted the cup a little thinking it was almost empty, NOPE, the waitress came and refilled it and I guess I wasn't paying attention because I dumped ice cold water all over Avery's head! MEAN MOMMY! She was NOT happy and I don't blame her, I felt so bad!

This was Deven and Jaxson attempting to do a news cast. I don't think Jaxson quite understood what was going on until he saw it on the camera. He decided it was boring as soon as he sat down and tried to ditch dad.
