This weekend we had some family visit for David's birthday and to celebrate Thanksgiving early since we are heading out of town this week. 

David, PawPaw, Avery & Brooke check out a message from Santa. They were so excited!

Keely was feeling pretty bad and wanted to cuddle with Mommy. She is feeling a little better today with some strong medicine. My poor baby girl!

Now to get ready for a busy week ahead. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband today! 

I am so blessed to have you in my life. You are the greatest, sweetest husband and an amazing best friend!! Our little girls are so lucky to have you for their Daddy.

We love you so much!! We appreciate all you do for us.

The blog has been bumped down on the list of priorities lately thanks to some sickness that keeps hanging around our house. 

Last weekend Claire developed a fever. She actually had two febrile seizures with her fever Friday night. I rushed her and sisters to the after hours clinic (by myself because David was working) to find out that the seizures were most likely harmless, but we need to be careful with her in the future when she has a fever because she is likely to have them again. 

By Tuesday Claire was pretty much back to feeling like herself, but as we got closer to this weekend, Keely developed a fever and a cough. 

Frustrating! 

Anyway, we're doing all we can to get her well again while praying that the sickness stops here and our family can be healthy. We do miss church and socializing in general. :)

Here are some pictures of the girls when they were all feeling good. One of our favorite things to do in the evenings is turn on music and let the girls (and sometimes Mommy & Daddy) dance. Fun times!

and now.

Height: 32 in. (50-75%)

Weight: 24lbs 8oz (50-75%)

Keely last year...

Height: 32 in. (50-75%)

Weight: 24lbs 9oz (50-75%) 

That's right... ONE ounce difference!

Out of the wagon and onto checking out the turtles.

I am thankful to have these moments with them!
