Toddler time

We have had a busy week. On Thursday I went to get the Twins from the Toddler lab. When I got there Mackenzie was crying on her teachers lap and her nose was bleeding. THey said that she had fell and scratched her nose. I looked at my baby girl and her nose was huge and bleeding bad. To me, it looked like she had broken her nose. I was so upset, I almost started to cry with her. I was babysitting this day as well and so I had 5 kids under 5 with me. I needed to take her to the ER because it was getting bigger by the second. Thankfully another mother there that was in a previous ward asked if I needed help. So she came with me and waited with the other kids while I was in with Mackenzie. They were not able to tell if she had broken it because it was so swollen. So we have to wait until the swelling goes down. She looks so sad with a green nose. The bruse is changing colors. This was our first major accident and I am glad that she is OK.

Mackenzie did her own makeup.

We went to work with mike one night and the boys are HUGE helps to dad.

Uncle Brian came to visit this weekend. The boys love to cuddle with him.

OUr friend came over with her new baby and Mackenzie loved to hold it.

Mackenzie loves to comb hair. I think she might be a stylist one day!

I think these two look like the twins.

I am not sure how well you can see this, but Mackenzie ran into the rocking chair at pre-school and hurt her nose really bad.

Here is her nose one day later.

This is just too cute.

This picture Nana and McKay are having too much fun.

I liked this picture of Mike and Jordan next to a GIANT elephant.

These kids love to sled. We played in the back year for about 45 minutes one day. I was freezing, they were not!

When we got to see Grandma K, we went to the zoo. The kids are learning so much about animals these days.

Meet our snowman. We made him a few weeks ago. The kids LOVED it.

Here is Grandpa K on new years day when he came to Rexburg for a visit.

Long time no post

Well, it has been a while since we have posted anything. We have been very busy with life these last few weeks. We have had company and visits and enjoyed them all. First we were able to go to Salt Lake and visit Grandma Karpowitz for a day. They kids were in Heaven with grandma to tend to them. We ate good food and went to the Zoo. This was a great thing for our kids to do. THey loved all the animals. They keep asking to go back. A few days after we got home, Grandma Pickup came to visit. We had so much fun with her. We got to go to see the movie Curious George and Jordan loved it. We played and ate and had lots of fun. Teh visits are never long enough. The kids kept asking Nana if she was going to leave. It is so hard to have grandma's go home. We reminded the kids that Nana will be back soon. Graduation is only 2 months away.
Mike is busy with school. When he gets frusterated, I remind him that this is it. Only 2 months left and then never again if he does not want. I know Mike will do great. He always does.
That is pretty much it with our little family. I wil lpost LOTS of pictures here in the next couple of days. I have some great ones.
