Travis turns 4
Travis with his pinata and new cars shirt and cars decorations. Such a big kid! He says now that he can fish off the canoe and fishing will be easy because he's four. He didn't think he should have to do any more chores though now that he's four?????
Sorry Luke and any other Hanson's to follow, but we will now not be starting friends parties until 4 years old, unless I cave. 4 and 5 year olds are the nicest people! This party was a piece of cake! They all listen so nice and took turns so nice. And they didn't even really destroy the house, even though they could of. Eva and the girls took out every necklace/lip gloss/hair tie/pony/barbie/accessory/ art project that they could find. It took me a week to clean up. The boys, they threw bean bags at therapy cones and went hunting for deer most of the time. So nice.
Kaden N, Eva, Jamie, Colton, Kaden B, Travis
Musical chairs.
Luke at the party. Is this kid a Buckhouse or what???????? Looks like my brothers.

I'm eating my 5th meal of the day at 8pm.... spaghetti and meatballs. I also took a two hour nap today about having two cavities filled, so I should have the energy for this. Having babies ruins my teeth. With Luke, I got gingivitis (OK, so I rarely brushed my teeth because I threw up every time) and a crown. Now, if my previa and puking wasn't enough, I've had a root canal, two cavities filled and I have some gum/viral infection going on. I seriously see my dentist as much as I see my OBGYN when I'm pregnant.
Also, it was mother's day. If you refer to the May 2008 blog, you can see what Eva wrote about me last time for her mother's day "questionaire." Seriously, if I was a teacher, I'd do these things FOR SURE and just laugh my head off. This time, there were questions again... one of them being "My mom looks funny when she...............Eva answers................................IS IN THE SHOWER." I couldn't stop laughing and she says "well, you do!" She also wrote "I wish my mom.........WOULD PLAY WITH ME EVERY DAY." After I ask Eva what she means because I am so crushed and full of guilt, she says to wants me to just play with her for an entire day and do nothing else. I'm glad I looked like the worst mom ever to her teacher just wishing for me to play with her because you all know what a mean mom I am. Then, lovely Travis made the SAME WISH when he blew out his birthday candles. Nice.

So, as you can see I haven't updated this for awhile. Been a little busy being sick as a dog. No new changes really in the baby category. I still have complete placenta previa and so I still have all the fun bleeding that goes along with that (sorry guys) and still all the worrisome, bad risks that go with that. Although (KNOCK ON WOOD), I must admit that the nausea appears to have gotten a little better. I am very, very , very hungry and can eat more than noodles. Not much, but I'm slowly expanding my food choices to include things that have nutrients. I actually walk around the house instead of just lay on the floor for at least the majority of my day. I only have to take 1 puke-pill a day, and those are almost history as I have to quit at 20 weeks and I'm 17. I actually smile sometimes now too!
Ahhhh Lukey. Chris calles him "Hitler." I just think he's 1 1/2. Little story from Luke about his life....
"I wouldn't be so naughty is there wasn't all this stuff that the big kids are doing like playing computer and such that I should be getting. I really got into all this stuff we had brought upstairs for the flood."
"Ha. Got in the bathroom and stole a toothbrush. Dipped it in the toilet first. Daddy lost me one day while mommy was at her second home: the drive-thru. He looked and looked and I had got in here in the dark and shut the door and threw all the toothbrushes and washcloths and towels in the toilet. He even opened and closed the door once and couldn't see me because it was dark! Then I got mommy too by spreading Eucerin cream all over myself and the carpet and the remotes."
"Hmmmmm. I must sit and rest and plan my next escape to neighbor's garages. Too bad I don't know how to walk. Check out my dirty knees!"
"Haircut and driving like a big kid."
"Pre-haircut, but looking cute on Easter. Daddy didn't see much of church but I showed everyone how great I am at saying 'bye-bye.'"
"Nobody lets me do anything. Travis and the boys at daycare start chanting 'no lukey, no' when they see me coming. I wanted to bang a sharp, metal picture frame on the piano keys very badly...."
"...and then I wanted to play memory with mommy and Travis..."
"...but, nobody lets me. So, I'll just lay on the floor and mess up the rug and kick and scream and throw the extra cards all over."
"I was giving Toni a drink our of this cup. Mostly I just try to sit on her over and over again."

Our friend, Aimee Mitchell, turned 30 and had a great party. I even stayed out until 10pm!!!!! Anyways, someone gave her a gag gift of prunes and she sent them home with Chris because our kids eat them. See, I wasn't lying!
The prunes were probably one of the first healthy things I had fed them for the past 2 months. Cereal for dinner is one of their "pregnancy favorites." Hey, there is at least a banana in there.
We do have the house pretty much put back together.... when I say "we", I mean my neighbor, Gerry, my husband, and my mom and dad since I am not allowed to lift anything. Our basement remained dry. Thanks Fargo! This was our FEMA shelter as Chris called it. It was mostly exciting to jump on the beds on the floor. (Look how sweetly Eva is reading her brother a book.)
Eva did squeeze in a 6th birthday party between my few weeks of bedrest and the flood. I spent the party mostly lying on the couch and eating oatmeal and cream of wheat and not being particulary pleasant. I just let them destroy the place. They seemed to have fun!
The kids dancing... but the funniest thing about this picture is Travis "dancing." In the background with his thumbs up.
Eva's Hannah Montana decor and the CD's she made for her birthday treats and her new outfit from grandma.
Luke doing his part to destroy the party. Travis says that Luke is "a wrecker, a button pusher and a shover."
The sidewalk after the March 10th blizzard. No wonder we had a flood!
Chris rescuing us during the blizzard shoveling away the snow from the exhaust when the furnace wouldn't work.
Two videos. Luke just being cute. Travis singing a very popular country song... if you can hear it through Luke's whining day.

Below: This is silly Lukey who figured out a way to play basketball, even though he can't yet walk. Yes, yes, I am a pediatric physical therapist and he is 14 months old and probably at least 3 months from walking yet......what can I say? We're big, that's a lot to coordinate!
Also, Travis learned a very important message about cold and metal today. I always tell them that they can only eat NEW snow. Well, we get to daycare and on her storm door, there is a nice, fresh, row of new snow. Travis tries to lick it off......I start screaming for Sheila to get water.....luckily it was a just a little row of snow on the metal and the screen was above it, so just the tip got stuck. We made quite the grand entrance to daycare this morning!
