Monday- President's Day

So on Monday Tracie and I took the kiddos on the Badger Mountain hike. They didn't quite understand what a hike was so I was telling them we were going to climb a mountain. As we were approaching said mountain Henry was getting a little nervous and said,"mom, I am a little scared about this mountain climbing thing. how are we going to climb the mountain? Are we going to use ropes or something?" And then HW asked "what if our hands get slippery?" hahaha they thought we were going straight up the mtn.
So after getting everyone out we started our walk and as you know the trailhead are just plain flat, nothing spectacular or anything and Henry informed me, "we aren't climbing a mountain! This is just called WALKING!!"
We didn't make it to the top, but we made it at least half way, maybe more:)

I'm-a-back!!! That's what Mario says....

Well, it has been awhile since I have had a chance to sit down and write on here. Things have been busy around here. We went to Seattle to visit for a weekend-that might have to be a seperate post. And we got sick on last time for good measure. But now all is well is the Lamberson household so maybe we will start with just a general update with a side of sarcasism, cause that is the kind of mood I am in. Hey I do what I want....
Nash has been either busy on the truck or busy in the office, so either way he is busy busy busy. That is good, he is very driven :) And he loves what he does.
I am also busy with my new job as a tatoo artist. I recently opened my own shop. I specialize in children's tatoo's and permenant make-up... juuussstt seeing if you were paying attention:)
Henry is currently learning about presidents at school and just had his 100 day party.
Hudson is a suprisingly shy little boy in school. Every time I go to watch hhim at school he is so quite. His teacher's say he is the quietest. Who woulda known?!?!
Olive is walking and trying so hard to talk. She has things she is saying, we just can't understand her! Dang us! She enjoys being all up in her brother's business. That is her favorite and her best. I heart it.
So there you are all caught up on the fam... now onto this weeks stuff.

Why am I not in bed right now??????

Really I mean really, why did I not got to bed like and hour ago right after Nash got home from work? I just don't know. I know I will pay in the morning, but I am just awake for some reason. The kids didn't nap at all today and so here I sit, finally getting some time to myself. An old episode of The Office playing in the background- The Cat Camera one- for those of you who are truely interested. "Also, I'm pretty sure she coughed up a hairball." ok enough with The Office....
Anyways, where have I been!!???!!! Seriously...oh wait yes that's it we all got sick again. UGH COME OOOONNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!! This time it was the Stomach FLU. I will spare you the Gory, poopy, pukey, details...well that is basically it. It lasted from the night of O's big par-tay, until wed. I never puked, knock on wood, but I am still battling the queeziness.
Well this may be cut short... Baby O is waking and may be needing me. She has yet another double ear infection. Might be time to make the switch to goats milk. More on that later....

Today

Well there is much to do today....what's new right? I am heading off to the gym this morning for Zumba, where O will probably end up on my back cause she hates nursery. It seems to take like two weeks to get her back into things if we have been gone for awhile.
Then I have to rush home and get HN fed and out for school...but first I have to change O's diap. HN just came in and said "Mom Olive is Def. poopy!" Sooo off I go!!!

supercalafragalistexpealidooocious......or something like that anyways....

HN keeps galavanting around the house singing this song. He has not yet seen Mary Poppins, he has just heard the song from the new Disney Sing it video game and he loves the song. I have a feeling the movie viewing will be in our future.
Whilst talking about old movies let's talk about how I have Wizard of Oz songs stuck in my head. I bought the movie on Black Friday-on Bluray, and we have watched it several times. I just love that movie. Ok, I just heard the laundry, so this is all you people will probably get today.

The Plague...

Soooo Nash and I finally went to the dr. yesterday. We have had the cough for like two weeks now and we went in. We recieved antibiotics and an inhaler. Then we went one hall over and O and HN had their appt to check their ears since they both had ear infections. Well HN still has fluid and redness so he is going on MORE anti's and if that doesn't work, it will be tubes AGAIN for him. O looked good. Praise God!
Then we get home and HW has a fever so today we went BACk to the Dr. and now he is on anti's too! The Dr. said the only thing saving O from not getting this horrible bug is probably nursing. So she wants her to increase her nursing to try to prevent it. OHEMGEE, this thing needs to go away already!!!
So today's agenda...fluids, movies, and well that's about it....staaaayyyy tuuunneeddd!!!

AMOX, M J glove, and other oddities

while I whole hearted appreciate the fact that you are clearing up my child's DOUBLE ear infection (yes two of my children brought back that little souvenir from KY)I DON't appreciate the LOADS of CRAPPOLA that you bring with yourself!!! I mean seriously 2tsp a day brings like 3 or more diapers a day of poo. Really. COME ON!!!!!

While we are on weird things, let's talk abou how HW is wandering about the house with one red glove on. Yes, it is because he can only find just the one, but still all I can think in my head is..."Billy Jean is not my Lovvaa, She just a girl who claims that I am the oonnnee, Buut the kid is not my soooon!! Heeeeeheeeee!!!" Wrong, maybe a little, but I can't help it. I am a product of my age.

Baby O right now, and HW both did not nap this afternoon. I thought, we would drift off and ease back into reality this week with a movie. Well that didn't happen. We got a little over half into Wizard of Oz, when HW realized he was hungry and started causing a ruckus thus disturbing O and making her rouse from almost asleepness. Now we are in the playroom playing with pretend food, which is quite funny for O, she grabs a french fry, and is always disappointed. baahaha. Still funny everytime. The two little ones are also enjoying the slide toy that I bring in every winter. We have had this since HN was one and it has provided hours of indoor and outdoor play.
Well, I suppose I should do something productive, like oh unload dishes or some such thing like that. Blah blah.
