Sledding at Uncle Bibby's!!

I have been waiting all winter to go sledding with Kit and after many failed attempts I made it! I was babysitting T.D. tonight so his parents could go on a little date and I took the two rugrats up to my Uncle Bob's for an awesome adventure. Bob has been working the last day on this great track for the kids. His yard is the perfect sledding yard. I remember going up there all the time when I was little and we would make some killer rides. Kit was a complete natural.  

She LOVES the snow. She is always wanting to go make "noballs" and have whoever is nearest to her throw it. She was a champ. I didn't dare to let her go by herself but she had lots of fun with Uncle Troy and Jada. Troy Danny was not much into the excitement this time around. I think he wanted to wait and show off for his mom. He spent the whole hour we were up there standing next to the door telling us "I done, let's go. I done!" We will have to get back up there soon for some more fun filled adventures!! Here is a quick preview....

Latest trip to the KidsCare!

So here is the latest excitement from our house. On Tuesday night Kit had this awful rash show up out of nowhere. I went to change her diaper before bed and was SHOCKED to see what was on the trunk of her body.  It was all over and red as can be.  She hadn't eaten anything unusual and she had no signs of any sickness. But to be on the safe side I took her to the kidscare anyway.  After an hour and a half of waiting the Dr. just told me to give her a little benadryl and keep my eye on it.  I was quite relieved because the nurse that 

came in before hand told me it looked an awful lot like MEASLES!! What?! I just had her vaccinated for that.  The Dr. said Measles spreads from toes to torso and you can't feel it on the skin.  PHEW! This was only on her chest and back and was definitely raised.  

I guess it really is just peace of mind to know she was going to be alright. The next day it was a lot fainter and was totally gone by Saturday.  I still have no idea what caused it, but it didn't seem to bother her and has not shown it's ugly face again. 

Just a quick update!!

Well this is Zak, so if the blog isn't as cute and clever as usual it is my fault! Or is it the fact New Mexico sucks? Maybe a little of both I guess. Anyway I came home on the 23rd of December for a wonderful holiday break! It was full of family parties and time at home! It was awesome to be home with my little LuLu and my beautiful bride. On top of being home it was Christmas, New Years and even the Sugar Bowl!! So we were busy:

 is always super busy with all the places we need to go and the people to see. So the last two years we have just opened our doors to "all sides" and partied the night away at our house. So much easier!! Oh and fun!! really it is fun to see the little ones getting excited for the brownies (our family's special elf's) to come and have the cousins together is something special to us!! Kathryn had a wonderful Christmas!! She still hasn't gotten the whole Santa thing yet but she loves getting new stuff!! She actually got a little bored with unwrapping the gifts but LOVED getting them!! 

 got her first kitchen set with all the fake food, and a whole bunch of super cute clothes. It was hard for her to understand the chicken leg in her toys wasn't to eat but to play with, but she is getting it now!! Loni got a new camera that she seems to like!! So there should soon be many picture updates and not so many words!! I saved the best for last...my new snow blower!

Awesome!! It totally throws the snow into my neighbors yard perfectly!! Once i get done using that i am now able to come in and wrap up in my super sweet new Utah Utes quilt!! Ok Christmas was nice.
New Years: Well it came in with a bang!! We again just opened our doors to our family and this time we spent most of the night, actually the whole night eating lots of food and playing carnival games on the Wii it was a good time. Princess Peterson didn't make it to midnight. She went to bed at her normal time...Eight!

Loni sure wished that she could have joined her then, but Loni made it to see Jake and Sam's sweet ten minute firework show!!

And of course the Sugar Bowl: Yes we are Ute fans that agree with everyone else that didn't spend the last of their money to go to New Orleans... "we should have!!!" With me being gone so much i know we made the right choice in not going and spending that time at home as a family. But again the same ole story...Loni made all kinds of yummy food and everyone was invited to come see the Utes roll the Tide. It was awesome. I am already excited for next season in section 36!!! Go Utes!!!

K that is all that went on the ten days i was home in a nut shell! Well not really that was a small part of three days, but i am sure you are bored. So i will have Loni load some pics and will be done!!
