Amber in her Banquet dress and Fransisco

Lyndsay trying to get the rest of the spaghetti!

Birthday cake - yum yum!

Opening presents - she opened the baby and wanted to be done!

She was protesting having to wear shoes and she wasn't feeling well from getting her shots!

Another week gone by! This was a big one! Lyndsay turned one on Thursday! Tuesday night she broke into a rash all over - allergic reaction to something but I couldn't figure out what! She did it again Wednesday and Thursday! Finally figured out (with help from mom and heather and Jeremy) that she was reacting to baby wipes! I had bought some walmart brand wipes this week and started using them. The babysitter was using the ones from Sam's still during the day. Isaac did this, too when he was about the same age! So, no more walmart wipes for Lyndsay and she hasn't had the rash since! We celebrated on Thursday with a ham dinner, cake and ice cream for Carly, too. Still getting over coughs, sinus junk but the doctor says it's been hanging around for a long time... Fun, fun fun! Amber went back to college on Monday and Fransisco got to go along to keep Grandpa Sam company and awake, too I hope! I fell way behind on laundry this week and took yesterday off to take Lyndsay for her one year check up (she got 3 shots and had blood drawn for the lead test Health Plus demands!) - she looks like a pin cushion poor baby! So, then went to H Care to get some more support knee highs for work and then to Walmart for a few things, then to McD's and got the kids lunch then took it to school for them. Isaac came home with a headache so I took the rest of my day off (didn't get home til noon) and caught up on laundry, changed bedding, etc.

Rented some movies last night and watched one then passed out cold in bed while hubby watched another. I think we were all in bed by 10pm on a Friday night! Curt got up at 7am this morning and I didn't even hear him which is unusual for me the light sleeper! Lyndsay woke up twice last night so I must have needed the sleep... I still woke up at 7:30 am but that is sleeping in big time for me! I've been trying to download pictures all day and that's been a pain - computer keeps shutting down for some reason! The kids are all wrestling right now, making lots of noise!

I took Lyndsay yesterday for her first pair of Stride Rite shoes (first pair of shoes, really). I've only had shoes on her two or three times - she hates them! She cried and cried! So, I'll put them on her for awhile and then take them off when she hasn't fussed for awhile! If she wants to play outside, she'll have to learn to like wearing shoes! The minute I take them off, she takes off all over the house again! The shoes are like a cage to her:)

Well, I might try and talk hubby into going out for a date night tonight. We might end up staying home and having homemade pizza though, we'll see! Enjoy the pictures and have a great weekend!
