Christmas

We spent Christmas day with Randall's family and then a few days later we celebrated with my family! The kids loved unwrapping all of the girts and throwing away everyon's trash!

Bad Mosquito!

Well, we knew that Chase was sensitive to mosquito bites because the ones on his body would stay long and get bigger than normal. However, we had no idea he was this allergic! He got bit right next to his eye and it started as just a big bite. Then he woke up the next morning and he looked like he was really tired with a puffy eye. Then the day care called and it was completely shut. Poor baby. It didn't bother him at all, he was such a good boy. It looked horrible. His friend Kohen has the same reaction so we felt okay with how he looked medically, but wow! After about 2 days of benedryl it finally went down. So needless to say mommy caries benedryl in her purse now and he will get off on him every time he goes outside. This happened right before the freeze. So after the snow and freeze we thought for sure all of the mosquitos were gone, no! He got bit about a week later on the leg, he had a big calf that day! Just so everyone knows, the doctor's office was not concerned and said it was common for people to have these type of reactions! Poor Chase! What a good boy!

Snow in League City

It snowed in League City and it actually stayed for a few hours. Unfortunately the babies had already gone to bed when it changed from a light sleet to snow, but we took lots of pictures of all of the snow. It was wonderful. A white Christmas early in south east Texas! The neighbors brought all of their kids out and had snow ball fights in our front yard, so much fun. Here are some pictures of what the house and yard looked like! What a miracle it seemed like!

Our "Future Silverados" and "Silverado Studs"

The Silverados were having team pictures so Kandy and I thought it would be fun to get all 5 kids together and take a picture. Well, the bottom picture is what you get with 5 kids under 2 1/2 years old! Carolyn is showing off her smile, Charlene is upset, Chase has no idea what is going on, Kamryn has no idea what is going on, and Kohen has a pumpkin from the Halloween decorations on his head! We had shirts made for all of them for the Friday night games. Of couse our 3 only made it to one game, that was enough for Daddy, Gertie, and Cheif! But the shirts are adorable! The girls' shirts say "Future Silverado" and the boys' say "Silverado Stud" (on the back)! Super cute!!!

Our Fall day care pics! They are being mailed out soon (I promise and hope)! Poor Carolyn, not a good angle! She loves little cameras, just not te ones with all the big flashes and everything!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! We have been sick all week (well, Chase and Charlene) so we dressed up Thursday and played in the house! Charlene loved her costume. Chase didn't want to put it on, but when he looked in the mirror he loved it. Carolyn had a hard time fitting in hers so she got upset. Once it was on she was okay as long as the head wasn't on. We are going to keep them around the house for a while to play in!

Our New Tent!!

Randall found this tent at Academy for $17 and couldn't pass it up! He set it up one Friday while I was at a football game and they loved it. He said they played in it all afternoon until they went to bed. It pretty much covers our living room so we had to put it up, but I think it will be the football game toy to help time pass for Daddy by himself with all 3!
