Recap of the last few days

Published by Kerry | Filed under Uncategorized

Thursday – We spent a couple of hours outside with our boys, enjoying the crisp fall weather while the fire department inspected our house to make sure we didn’t have a gas leak, carbon monoxide, or radon.  We will never know for sure, but we think the smell was the glue or solvent fumes coming over from our next-door neighbor’s (dead guy, for those of you who’ve heard us talk about him) hardwood floor installation.  Max and Wes LOVED the flashing lights of the fire truck, and we were really relieved that it wasn’t anything serious – better to be safe than sorry, right?

Friday – My sis flew in for the weekend!  Before I went to pick her up from the airport, Jeff and I took advantage of the beautiful night to take some pictures of our favorite little dudes.

I went to pick Kristy up from the airport Friday night, and we went straight to Michael Jackson’s This Is It – and it was sooooo good!  I’m so glad I could count on my sis to see the movie with me (and enjoy it as much as I did), because God knows Jeff would have never watched it with me.  A little Kerry trivia for those of you who don’t know my love for MJ – in elementary school, I once got my name written on the chalkboard with three, yes THREE, checkmarks for insisting that Michael Jackson was my brother.  The teacher wanted me to tell everyone that I lying about the “fact” that he was my brother, and I refused – so I stayed after school for almost an hour.  Good times.

Friday night was a rough one for the boys.  Kris and I came home to Jeff cuddled on the couch with Max and Wes (Kristy wasn’t upset by that at all, that way she didn’t have to wait until morning to see her little nephews).  They both would NOT sleep to save their lives, and we couldn’t figure out why…until we saw this.

We haven’t been able to get a good shot of the inside of Max’s mouth, but it pretty much looks the same.  Ouch!  That would certainly explain why our normally-good-sleepers are VERY fussy and inconsolable lately.  Not very good timing, considering I was just bragging to Kristy about how adorable and sweet they were both being lately…

Saturday - The five (six, including Rexy) of us enjoyed some time with our little dudes in the morning, and then headed over to one of our favorite restaurants for lunch outside.  It was in the 70′s yesterday, which is almost unheard of this time of year (in Colorado), and boy did we soak up some sun! 

More pictures to come later today…
