3 yr & 1 yr Check ups......

Miss Alexandra Lynn had her 3 yr check up & Dustin had his 1 yr check up yesterday. It went great. Everything is wonderful. Ally had to get 1 shot & Dustin had to get 3. They did not enjoy them at all. I even had to make Ally face the wall when Dustin got his 3 so she wouldn't attack the nurse for hurting him... ;)

Also...my daughter is not modest at all. She did not want to wear the robe, so she was just in her undies, she had to go potty so she strutted down the hallway in her daisy duck undies... she told me it was ok if people saw her boobies. (gotta love that)

Easter morning at our house.

Fred Meyer parking lot. Ally thought this was super cool. She ran to the car & her boots were literally FILLED with water..she was crying. We dumped out the water & took off her pants to hush her up. It was pretty funny.

I took them in to get their Easter Pictures taken at Kiddie Kandids! I just love that place- quick & easy!!! They were both happy & ready to smile!

oh yeah....I can walk!

So my mom forgot to tell everyone that I have been walking for about 3 weeks now!

I also have 2 1/4 teeth.

here is a video of me walking outside...the yard is NOT even... I need to talk to my daddy about that!

BEWARE>>>>>

I got this in an e-mail:

A student at HBHS (high school) had pancakes this week and it almost became fatal. His Mom (registered nurse) made him pancakes, dropped him off at school and headed to play tennis. She never takes her cell phone on the court but did this time and her son called to say he was having trouble breathing. She told him to go to the nurse immediately and proceeded to call school and alert the nurse. The nurse called the paramedics and they were there in 3 minutes and worked on the boy all the way to the hospital. He came so close to dying. Evidently this is more common then I ever knew. Check the expiration dates on packages like pancakes and cake mixes that have yeast which over time develop spores. Apparently, the mold that forms in old mixes can be toxic!

Throw away ALL OUTDATED pancake mix, Bisquick, brownie mixes etc you have in your home.

You can check this website.......http://www.snopes.com/medical/toxins/pancake.asp

P.S. You might want to tell this to your children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces and anyone else who keeps these types of mixes in the cupboard.
