Another view of Tate's left hand.

Tate's left hand...

Last night (Jan. 27th) we were at my mom and dad's house and Tate's leaned his hands onto their fireplace and burned them both really bad. We took him to the ER and they put some cream on and bandaged them up. We now have to take him in daily for the next several days to whirlpool and physical therapy. This morning they popped the blisters and cut them off. It was very sad to watch him go through this. I just wish I could take the pain for him. They did this so that no infection will get into the wounds. Then we soaked his hands in the whirlpool and they bandaged him again. He looks like he has two big mittens on. I'll try to get more pictures on later. I am also trying to get the picture of his right hand on, but I am having troubles getting it off my phone. Stay tuned for more. Please include him in your prayers.

Shane's new look after a morning of having a fun snowmobile ride!

Shane's snowmobile accident...

Shane was in a snomobile accident a couple of weeks ago. He got his eye cut up pretty bad, but it is healing nice now. We are just very grateful he wasn't hurt any worse.

Watch out! Tate is started crawling Dec. 27th. He is now into everything! He thinks he is as big as the other kids now!

Making cookies, great fun! We had a nice mess of dough, flour, frosting, and sprinkles by the time they were done! But, the cookies tasted great! Good job, guys!

Making Cookies

Aunt Heidi made sugar cookie dough and brought out for Addi and Dax to cut out and decorate. They had a blast! Thanks Aunt Heidi!

The Princess turns 5!

Addi counted down the days for months until her birthday when she would be 5! She was so excited! Now, she can't wait until Dax's birthday (in August) when he turns 4, then she gets to start kindergarden!! Happy Birthday, Princess!

Princess Cake

Addi wanted a princess birthday cake this year.

Happy Halloween!

The kids were so excited to be dressed up for Halloween. Addi was a pretty princess, Dax was a roaring lion, and Tate was a cute little chicken. They had a great time trick or treating...

Shane and Aly dressed as "Hicks"

Shane decided we would dress up as "hicks". It really was a lot of fun. The kids thought we were great!
