Bunk



As an early Christmas gift, Grandpa and Grandma Wagner bought the boys bunk beds! We opted to do this a few months early because we thought Carter was ready for a big boy bed and Brittany was in need of our crib-worked out perfectly! I was a little scared at first because I knew this meant Carter would be in and out of bed and it would take a while to get him to sleep. The night before we got the bunk beds, I took off the side bar in his crib and used a side rail we had for Landon. Basically it turned out just how I thought it would but he is getting better. Some nights he will come out 20 times but if I sit next to his bed, he is more willing to stay in there. I am really trying hard not to sleep WITH him because I know this can lead to no good.


Landon has known about the bunk beds coming and was absolutely thrilled about them. He was a little nervous about climbing up and down the latter but after a few times, he ran out saying "Mom, I did it! I went down the latter!"





Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! Merry Christmas :)



Sicky

The past month has been a rough one at our house. What I thought was just allergies turned into what I thought was just a head cold, which turned into a fever and cough that lasted a week that turned into an emergency visit to the doctor after hours. We knew something was not right when we just could not break Carter's fever. He laid there pretty much for a week, eating pretty much a few goldfish crackers a day and a sippy cup of apple juice. I have never seen a kid so sick, it was really scary! After having an x-ray done on Carter's chest, it was discovered that he had pneumonia. I felt so bad that I had not taken him in earlier but with antibiotics, he was himself within a few days. Now he is back to normal, looking for Mario all day. Thanks to our families for their support and prayers! Now I am crossing my fingers that we don't get sick like this again anytime soon...

Shark Party

After the trip to the aquarium, we had a SHARK themed party for Landon at the Wagner's. It was complete with Pa-Pa's famous "crazy" cake, homemade frosty by his mama, dinner, presents, and even a pinata! Can you believe he asked for shark toys for his birthday? So weird ;) We had so much fun celebrating with Landon and can't believe he is already 5.

Aquarium!

Landon LOVES the aquarium. He could stay there for hours and go every day. It was no surprise that when we asked what he wanted to do for his birthday, he said "Go to the aquarium!" We were orginally going to go on his actual birthday but since my dad was only in town for a few days, we went a few days before his birthday. As a special birthday treat, Landon, my dad and I got to go experience the penquin encounter. We actually got to go behind the scenes and see the penquins! They were so stinking cute. Landon was a little sad that we had to go and wanted to stay to feed the penguins. He quickly got over it when he got to go look at the sharks again. Such a fun day for an almost 5 year old!
