Superbowl Sunday

    millie skating
      feeling better!

       john campbell taking garlic..whoops!

  eating superbowl "sundaes"

Since john campbell has rsv we scheuchzers partied alone for the superbowl.  It was hilarious watching ben and millie eat their superbowl "sundaes" and to hear millie cheering loudly for the "steemers"!  If she hollered for them once she did it a thousand times!  We were cracking up.  It was a good finish to a challenging day with her.  I admit i left the garbage disposal running a little longer than necessary to drown out her "whys" at one point.  She is so funny sometimes and she doesn't even mean to be.  The other night when i told her to go to her room and get in the bed she said "Awww nuts!  That stinks!".  

John Campbell seemed better today.  He has been such a trooper through this crummy thing.  I have been taking some garlic to try and get that in him since i am nursing.  We noticed his breath smelled like garlic yesterday mid-morning and we were amazed that the garlic was that potent.  Then later that day when i was giving him his supplements and it was time for the vitamin C  i got mike to get the camera to take a picture of the funny face he makes, only this time he started crying.  I told mike that he doesn't usually cry when he has to take it.  Shortly thereafter i realized that i wasn't giving him vitamin C but crushed up garlic!!! Loser mom! No wonder he smelled like lasagna!  Poor baby....we are back to vitamin C now:)

Millie got some pink barbie roller skates from the cochrans for her birthday and the past two days ben has had them on every chance he has gotten!  He and millie scoot all over the house in them.  Mike locked the wheels on them so that only one wheel actually rolls but they are loving them!  Ben cracks me up in his lightening mcqueen pajamas and barbie skates.

Me, mike, and john campbell are suppose to go the grammy's this weekend but i am playing it by ear at this point.  I really want to go if cam is well but i hate the thought of being on a plane
which is so germ infested with a baby who just got over rsv....what to do what to do!

Sometimes i feel like the days are flying by....I feel like i just got up and now i am getting ready for bed.  I was feeding john campbell tonight while i watched ben roller skate and it seems like i was just cradling ben in my arms a few days ago.  I can't believe he is 4.  My precious babies...you will be 18 years old before i know it...i hope there is not one moment where you are not treasured.  I am so grateful that the Lord allows me to be your mommy.

  1. I love the pic of Cam! (the one where he's smiling, not the garlic face) And I love the part about leaving the garbage disposal running...
    They do grow up quickly, don't they?
