ELMO LIVE!!

About 3 wks ago, Elmo was in town!! We bought tickets when I was still pregnant knowing I might not feel up to going and invited Nana to go along as well. Even with the early arrival since my hemoglobin had dropped so much, I just wasn't up to it and had to settle for lots of pictures and play by play via text message. They all had a great time, especially Buggy.






My cousin Beth sent some adorable burp rags for Konnor. She sent some when Katie was born too. (She uses them for her babies now.) Beth is so sweet to always send big sibling gifts too. Kelton and Katie were exited to get to open presents too.





Kelton, ever eager to try every activity available to him, has started soccer and had his first game on Saturday morning. It was too funny to watch. Basically a herd of little boys running around kicking each other a ball.




Normally I'm not much on bought blankets. My mom has always made all my baby blankets and Eric's mom quilts. However, these blankets from Target are so awesome. There were two I really liked, but wouldn't splurge on more than one. I was thrilled we when received the other from Eric's cousin, Katie. They are so snugly and we use them everyday. One side is minky fabric and the other side is fuzzy stuff that we've been calling lamby. :)


In his ongoing effort to be "just like dad". Kelton insists on wearing a white tank under his shirt everyday now. Naturally, Katie wanted to try one on as well.


After 6wks of just picking up a few things we needed here and there, we finally had to make a big Walmart trip. We spent $79.18 but saved $34.99, although that doesn't count our big splurge of a stainless steel trash can with lid and food pedal. The Easter bunny did some shopping too which basically negated our coupon savings, but that's not bad for 3 kids! Hopefully when the madness settles a bit, I can work on getting our stockpile built back up.

Now, what you've really been waiting for....our little Koggle in his infinite cuteness....










I am so happy to be feeling mostly human again. I am definitely bowing my head in thanksgiving that things didn't become more serious. We would really appreciate continued prayers that the C. Diff. doesn't return after my course of Flagyl is done.
