Band-aids might cure cancer!

You may as well know the secret we've been keeping. Band-aids can cure anything . . . possibly even cancer. Paige is working on the research now. She started yelling during dinner that her lip hurt. "I think I need a band-aid" she sobbed. When I said "no" the sobs turned to full out screaming and writhing in pain. Sometimes you do what you have to do to make the noise stop, so we headed to the bathroom for a band-aid, and SURPRISE the pain immediately stopped. IT'S A MIRACLE! Dr. Shane's diagnosis . . . sudden onset lip pain. How can you take a kid seriously when they have a band-aid on their lip?

Make your mark!

Tonight we put the finishing touches on the playroom.

I'm a rock girl

She's been saying all day that she's a ROCK GIRL! How can I argue with those hips? Watch out Hannah Montana, you've got competition!

Playroom

We finally finished the playroom, and I think it looks great! Ty and Paige really love to play in there even more now. Here's a before picture


. . . and here it is now!

Jack

"Grandpa Jack"

This is what your smile would look like if you stuck your feet in pumpkin guts . . . try it sometime!


We carved our first pumpkin of the season last Sunday. The kids were so excited. Little did we know that "Jack" would end up in the nursing home less than a week later. Pumpkins in Arizona have a life expectancy of 1 week!

No boys allowed!

We had so much fun with Heidi and Kylee at the nail salon! Kylee and Paige were so excited to pick out matching colors and have little flowers painted on their toes. I'm sure the ladies working at the salon thought we were crazy, snapping pictures left and right. Thanks Heidi and Kylee . . . we're so blessed to have such awesome neighbors!
