What a Bummer...

After Airplane Grandma (my mom) had one sleepless night and I had one and then last night Daniel and I getting NO sleep I decided to take Lincoln to see Dr. Agolia today. First Lincoln had a rash that the Doc was not worried about and a goopy eye that he said was probably from clogged tear ducts, again not a big deal at this point but later could cause concern. Moving on to the other parts of his nearly 20 pound body that is right...just shy of 20 pounds!! Oh yeah well he checked his ears and he has an infection in the right one. Doc said we should give him amoxicillin 2x/day for 10 days. So I will hope that Daniel and I get some sleep tonite!

Family Update!

Hey Guys!! Hope all is well out there!! I just wanted to give everyone an update on each of the kiddos and Daniel and I, since we are so exciting!!!

Madison~ Well, this week she is in 2 bible camps!! She goes to one from 9-12:30 then home for lunch and a nap. She wakes up just in time to go to the one that is from 5:30-8:00. She has been so tired this week. She is getting very excited about school starting! She wants to know more about her teacher and what her school is called. She is starting kindergarten... What am I going to do?

Parker~ OMG that boy is saying or at least trying to say EVERYTHING!!! His words now include... cookie, milk, juice, Banna(for Savanna who is our neighbor), tractor, car, truck, bike, hat, bite, Mama for Grandma, gosh I know there are a ton more plus he is saying Oh 2 of the most famous.... Papa, MOW!!! I guess he thinks Papa needs to mow all the time!!! But now he does got to Daddy's mower and say daddy!!! He thinks that every time Madison goes potty that he needs to go also. I think Daniel said the other day that Parker was in the bathroom with him and watched him go potty...well then he went potty on the floor in his room. I guess that is progress? Who knows!! He also tries to say Lincoln, it is so cute!!

Lincoln~ my snuggle bug!!! He is rolling like crazy and really making ground!! Daniel was holding him the other day and he said DADA!!! Along with a ton of other jibberish!! I guess that is progress too! Boys I tell you they are a different breed! We have moved him up to a size 4 diaper. Now he and Parker are wearing the same size?!? If he was not so wide we would not have this problem. When we were on vacation he got used to the travel swing that my mom has ... so now we take the swing back and forth to moms house and our house. I am trying to get him back in OUR swing we DO NOT need anymore PLASTIC in our house that is a baby toy!!

Daniel~ Well he is out of town pretty much every Wednesday nite. Soon however that will pick up to Tuesday - Thursday. It has not been to bad lately. And it is super that my mom takes the kidds once a week for a break!!! He was going to try to get back into baseball but I think our schedule is tooooo hectic of the summer for that.

ME~ Well, other than being a taxi driver and helper for camp, I am just doing the regular. Trying to get to the gym everyday!! So please be praying that I get there and work out!!

On OUR Way . . .

So, I am in the car on my way to Kansas City where we are having a post-wedding shower for Jen Schlotzhauer the newest member of the Pike Wives Club. I ponder quite frequently what our husbands think of this little "thing" we have started. If your husband happens to be a PIKE and he has expressed his opinion about this I would love to hear what he has to say about it!!!

I enjoy these particular girls because I have never had a group of girls I was really close with. Not that we are all best friends but I feel very confident that if we (any of us) ever needed anything we could call each other and we would be there to help if we could. Since some of us have children and others live out of town. But I think it is really AWESOME that we can all get together and hang out and most importantly the biggest issue most women have ~ GET ALONG!!!! I don't feel this closeness with the girls in STL. I mean not all of them. I love the girls in KC!!! GIRLS YOU ROCK!!!!

NO TIME

So today it hit me that we are leaving for vacation in . . .5 days. HOLY COW. I have about a million things to do and only time for about 500,000 things!! We have had a ton of things going on however it is nice that my mom has the two older kiddos so that I can attempt to do things here!! I should have sent her with a couple of loads of laundry to do while the kids are with her!! She is so good she would probably do it for me!! I will be posting photos to www.feagans-family.spaces.live.com while we are gone so feel free to check things out there while we are in Estes Park, Colorado and also Colorado Springs, Colorado!!!


I am so excited that Daniel's cousin will be staying at the house with the dogs so we don't have to run them here there are everywhere!!
