If your child looks like this......


Looking at my lovely little princess reminded me that kids can not pick out clothes for themselves (daddy it seems would love some help too). However this combination is all my fault....So if you look one day and your child looks like this.....you might want to try this idea. (at least while they are little and don't mind you picking clothes for them).
Take some perfectly coordinated outfits like these above. Thanks to some family that found them at a consignment shop. (be sure to check yours out. These were part of a deal where you could fill as much as you could fit in a bag for 25 dollars.....now if only the grocery store would let me do that =) Anyways I'm rambling......
Just place outfit together on hanger like so and they are looking great every day!!! (only took me 5 years and 3 kids to figure this one out!!!)

On to Thanksgiving which was great! Very relaxing, great cooking. We tried to get the family pic to look something like this.....


And got some of these....hahahahahaha





You say but what was wrong with the last pic? Look at the pouter in the corner.....

And you all know Chris has been working on the lights for MONTHS. Well our house is fine but the subdivision entry way was a little bit vandalized on Thanksgiving night. Come. On.


So our Thanksgiving was awesome! Hope yours was too. Time to go cook dinner before people become grouchy =)

I love Mustard

The color not the condiment...unless we're having steak (weird, yes).
My FAVORITE color of fall is mustard yellow.
So I could not resist when I found this yarn, enjoy =)
Find the scarf here on Etsy.





Also the Christmas lights are almost done! One day he wants to set them all to music..... The girls wanted to help daddy and yes those are fluffy princess dresses under their coats =) And last but not least our cute little guy.



More to come!

Cochlear Surgery

Here is a few video's from You Tube.

WARNING:
This video is of an actual surgery so if you don't like the sight of blood or tissue don't watch. This is actually the same cochlear that will be given to Chris.

This is a video we showed to B and M. B especially has lots of questions about daddy's ears.

Thanks to all of your generous support we have the funds needed for the surgeon. We can't be more excited that this can happen a lot sooner than we anticipated. Words can't say thank you enough!!
I called the surgery coordinator to notify the hospital and make sure our insurance information is up to date. Hopefully not much has changed in hospital pricing. This will be an outpatient procedure. It has been a year since he saw the surgeon for consultation so he will have to see him again.
He will also have to get an MRI done. This will be his first and only MRI as after the procedure he will have a magnet under his skin.
