Well this week we found out that Emily needs tubes put in her ear's. So on the 19th she will go in for surgery. I am nervous because they have to put her under. We actually went in for an appointment for Joey and they had a cancellation and saw her at the same time. We found that the Joey and Em both have Eustachian tubes that aren't completely developed, which is genetic. However, the doc said that Joey's ears look better than last time and he wants to see what the audiologist has to say on Tuesday. He think thinks that Joey will need a steroid nasal spray to open up his Eustachian tubes. He doesn't think he has enough hearing loss to worry about, if any.


I have done a lot of couponing this week. I am totally bragging but only because I copy this blog to my diary and for no other reason. I got 4 boxes of dish washing detergent for $0.74 each. 6 bottles of Laundry detergent for $0.50 each and 4 bottles of Pantene for a $1.50 each. Spent $11.96 Saved $36.60. I know it doesn't sound like a lot but these are items I buy all the time. So if I were to look at it I made myself $36.60 in 40 minutes of shopping. The fruit snacks were an amazing deal. I paid $0.09 a box for 20 boxes spending $1.80 and saving $48.20. These will last me for 10 months. I had to add the cute picture of the kids. Joey asked me to put Emily in the car with him while we were waiting at customer service.


The kids were having fun playing together on the Edwards Express, even Rose.


Grandma Jill, and Aunt Sara bought the boys dinosaur or crocodile hats (I can never tell the difference). It was cute to see them all running around roaring at each other.


I know I added a lot of videos but like I said it is going in my computer diary. The boys attended a meet a greet your primary teacher. They had a lot of fun. The played a lot of relay games. They had popcorn attached to the shoes with rubber bands and they had to empty them in a box. They built a tower with marshmallows. Which I didn't get on video. They had to run and get plastic eggs open them and then do what the paper in the egg said, situps, pushups, jumping. I find it funny that Joey doesn't know how to do a push up, but the little blond girl, evalilly knows how to do them very well. Hmmm I guess we need a little more muscle in our home, just teasing.



Emily started crawling this week. Well I don't know if you could really call it crawling rather scooting around on her belly really fast. More of an army crawl. She is driving the boys nuts. Are they in for a real sup rise when she is into everything they own in a couple of months when she is walking.



I started college with the Pathway Program for BYU-I onThursday. So far I really like it. I am always like that at first. Gung ho and then half way through I don't know why I even started. I am hoping this is different. A religious school is awesome. I don't know if it is because I am being taught by the spirit more or that it is just an easy class but I am understanding things that I think might be hard for me to grasp otherwise. I don't know I will let you know how I am doing in a couple of weeks.



Eric went back to work on Friday with stitches in his foot. He says it is really painful. He gets his stitches out on Tuesday so hopefully it will help him feel better. Well that was the week as I can remember. Love Kristina
