Hot Blooded....

So must of you know that I love college football. I mean I would trade 10 games on Sunday for 1 good game on Saturday. So it came to no surprise around the house this weekend that two once proud football programs of TAMU and Nebraska would not garner any takers to televise the game. Not even the Vs. channel... they show Downhill mountain biking for goodness sake... So I tuned in to the game on the Internet and listened to what team that was going to suck a tad bit less today while Mom so graciously took the girls shopping at the mall. Yea, I know...twist her arm! I am glad to tell all of you that The Cornhuskers sucked a little bit more on this windy Fall day. Hide your carbohydrates...this guy is coming to town next!

I am tired of having sick kids. It makes me so sad for them. They can't yet communicate to us what hurts. Brooke is usually wild and crazy and won't stand still even if you bribed her with all the Pooh dolls and pacifiers in the world. Today, she crawled a few feet, sat up and just looked at us for like 5 minutes. Her eyes and nose both leaking fluids. Then she found one of your throw pillows and laid down on it and just stayed put. Allie is more dramatic. She cries some freaky wolf howl cry like, "Ahoooowwwww!" We live in an area that was once infested with Coyotes and today some still linger...I am sure they are all in our backyard after Allie's "calling of the dogs!" We are only into Fall for about a week now and they are already sick. I pray that this is not a LONG Winter. People, wash your hands and sneeze into the crevice at your elbow bend and not in your hands. *In Best Smokey the Bear voice* Remember folks, only you can prevent RSV, MRSA, and the Flu.






The girls in sweeter times. They have been sick off and on for a couple of weeks now. Mom N' Dad have had to deal with our first bout of fever in the girls. Mom is nice enough to do all the rectal temp checks. I get the forehead sweep machine. Mom should get a medal for all the "dirty" work.





Allie really gets into her books!


The girls are finally getting some hair around other parts of their heads. They used to look like Charlie Chaplin! From the look of this picture, I guess they are not going hungry often!?


They both love this window. Hence the finger, snot, booger, grease smudges all over the glass. We have to sure up the curtain is some type of origami knot in order to keep the little crazies from pulling down the whole window treatment.


Allie doing her best Dad impression!
