Painting Pumpkins

It is way to cold to go outside to carve pumpkins, and I don't want the mess inside, so Justin and I painted the pumpkins instead!! He had a ball and it was a good thing he took off his shirt, because, he got paint EVERYWHERE!! Brian and Justin are going to brave the cold tomorrow and carve pumkins. I think, I will stay in where it is warm!!

Scott's Deer

Justin and the deer that Scott shot up on Stacey's land. I think Justin was just as excited as Scott was!! Justin posed for pictures with the head, while Scott was cutting up the other end! I guess working for Premium Meat was worth it, he saved some money on having to have someone else cut it up for him. YUCK!!!

Sick Kid Update

We went to the doctor today and.....NOT good news!!! He has gotten worse. They have doubled his steriod and he now has to have a breathing treatment every 2 hours, and he is also on a antibiotic. His doctor said that the next 24 hours will be the deciding factor if he will have to be admitted to the hospital. If I could just keep him on the couch and not trying to bounce all over the house it would help!! But on the other hand the doctor said that if he was just laying around and not up and moving he would already be in the hospital!! So needless to say we will be in the house for a few more days!!

My Sick Little Boy

Well, we made it through another trip to the emergency room!! Justin has a viral infection in his lungs. I took this picture on Wednesday morning (10/14), after he had a breathing treatment- you can tell he is forcing a smile, and would much rather be sleeping! He is very ANGRY with me and his dad, because he can't have any "sugar" milk, until he is breathing better in a couple of days-he told me if I don't give him some he is going to die!! How dramatic is that?

Haunted House!!

Well here you go Andrea! This is my entertainment center, not to fancy, but I like it and Justin thinks its cool!

Slumber Party!!

I volunteered to take the Katie's kids overnight for Paul's Birthday- WHAT WAS I THINKING?? Just kidding, they have been fun, we watched Halloween movies and I fed them full of candy and junk food!! That is my right as their Aunt!!!

Baby Bump Watch #2

Mary's Baby Belly!! She is 28 weeks and going strong! Scott says she almost has a "Outie " belly button! Watch for the next picture in a couple of weeks.

First Snow - Oct 2, 2009

Andrea, Just thought you might like to see the first snow of the year!! It is so pretty with the tops of the mountains covered with the fluffy stuff!! Can't wait to see you at Christmas, give Stockton a kiss for me!! Love you ,Joanne P.S. Tell Ammon "hi" for me too!!

Bear World 2009

We stopped at Bear World on the way to Yellowstone, Justin had a ball looking at all the animals and wanted us to roll down the windows on the drive through the animal park so he could get closer to the bears!! (Good thing I was driving and had control of the window locks!!) We all walked through the petting zoo and Brian and Justin got the baby goats going so the would butt you with their heads!! Guess who got the bruises? ME!!!

This was the first day in the park, and also the farthest we could go in the park!! There was a fire on the Old Faithful loop and a road closure on the Mammoth loop, but we had a lot of fun anyway!

The Talbot Men in West Yellowstone!!

Brian, Landon, Jesse and Justin. This was taken Sunday morning while we were in Yellowstone. Landon was able to come with us for a couple of days on our vacation. It was good to see him!! He is living in Twin Falls and going to school to be a Fish Biologist, he has been working with Sturgen, and says some of them are up to 8 feet long!

Justin on Vacation 2009

Justin and his new stuffed creature- a white Buffalo that he has named "Horny"!! Before you laugh remember he is only four years old and it is a very innocent name for a animal with horns!!

First Day of Preschool

Country Kids Preschool!! Justin was so excited for his first day of preschool, he even changed his mind about his shirt 3 times! He was not really thrilled about having to get out of bed, before he was ready, but he made it out and had some cereal and toast and of course a glass of "sugar" milk. And after a round of picture taking he was off to school. I walked him into his classroom and took a couple of pictures, and he said he would be ok, and I could go. It is official, he is no longer my baby, he is a big boy now!!

Just in time for the first day of school- Justin has a infection in a eyelash folical!! Makes for cute pictures with a swollen face! But isn't he HANDSOME!!

Baby Bump Watch #1

I am starting a baby bump watch on Mary's belly!! This picture was taken on Sunday, Aug 30th . She is 21 weeks 2 days. They are thrilled to be having a little girl- so is Grandma Joanne- they are going to name her Kathryne Alexandra, but said they will probably call her Katie. Keep cheking in for new updates, I will take a picture every chance I get!!

Russell James Eddings

Uncle Jim was letting Russell wear his hat, for the first few seconds he liked it, and then he threw it on the ground- isn't he the cutest- Russell was sick while we were camping and they had to leave a day early so he could have his breathing treatments.

Camping

Some of the family posing for a picture while we were camping- what is up the the face on Tiffany? We had lots of fun, until it started to rain!!

Justin just pulled this coke out of the cooler, that was still full of ice and water from camping then, dumped the ice cold water off of the top of the can, down the back of Brian's neck. Justin laughed until I thought he was going to pee!!

Mommy's Big Helper

I told Justin, that we had to clean the house from top to bottom, before we go camping. He took me very serious!! He cleaned the living room and he even vacuumed, to my surprise he even used the hose attachment and went along the edges!! I didn't even know that he knew what the hose was used for!! What a AWESOME kid!! Maybe he can give his dad some tips!! (haha).

Justin's 4th Birthday!!

Justin had a lot of fun on his birthday. He had 3 parties- the Talbot party, the Eddings party and a friend party. All he asked for was a new cowboy hat, boots and belt, so of course that is what he got!! Grandpa and Grandma E, gave hime the lincoln logs that builds into a ranch, and he loves it because it came with cows, horses and cowboys!! I made his cake with the lizards, I am not the best at decorating cakes, maybe I should have had Susan help with it!! Anyway he had fun!!
