One rollercoaster of a week!

The week started out great! The kids had new church clothes (compliments of G.G.'s discount) and were very cute. Ethan was super excited for class (which was a first!)Gage had a matching sweater like Ethans but wouldn't put it on until we were ready to leave...

Sadie had a really cute Valentines Day dress...



I wasnt needed in nursery so I got to go to relief society which was soooo nice! Ethan loved class and Sadie was her usual terror!
Then the week began and Gage had another stomach bug...had to keep him home from school,Yipee!! Then Sadie and Ethan caught it worse than Gage. It was not pretty! Then came wednesday and lookie lookie what Gage decided to do...



He hopped over the gate to get into my room, went into my bathroom, took off the childproof lock on the cabinets and got into the hairclipper kit and found the sissors! He butchered himself! I thought a good punishment would be to send him to school without fixxing it but when he got off the bus, he still didnt realize how rediculous he looked?! I buzzed off all his hair which put him to tears, and me on the inside, and now this is how he looks... My little skin head!


By Thursday I had caught the bug and Justin had to miss a day of work to help me with the kids..not good! We need all the hours we can get with his job here lately.

Come friday and my house is bacteria infected, kids are back to their old wild selves and Justin calls to inform me that Brent is finally putting him in a truck...WAHOO!!! He started today which is crappy because its Valentines Day but great because what better gift than to be able to pay our bills=) He is hauling equipment and doing small jobs for Brent all around Georgia and will even be going up to South Carolina when he is needed. Basically he is at Brents beckin call which will give him CDL experience and a lot more hours. Yeah!! What a way to end the week....

Haha... I'm sure it helps that Gage is a boy- that would have been a bummer to have had to buzz a little girl's hair.

Hope you guys are doing better and recovered from being under the weather.
