Stitches again!

Yesterday morning Doran split his chin open. He wouldn't tell me what happened and no one saw. All he would say is he bumped into Sharky and fell. It was a pretty small cut, but it opened up wide and deep. I took him to an instacare because I wasn't sure if it would need stitches or super glue or something. The doctor was so nice and the kids loved him. He had Doran laughing and not scared. He didn't like getting the numbing shots before the stitches, but he even laughed while he was getting the stitches he liked the doctor so much! Finally we found out that he tripped over Sharky and hit his chin on his bed frame. Poor little guy!

Fire Training

Last week Seth's fire brigade had a training that families were allowed to go to. It was really fun! The boys got to see Seth in his fire gear, the fire truck, and watch him fight chemical fires! After it was all done they gave everyone pizza! The boys loved it! We asked them what their favorite part was nad and Doran said, "The pizza!" Brock said, "When I got to wear your hat." They both looked really cute in it.

Woot woot! Look at that name across that butt!

Once it got dark they started doing the fires. It was crazy. They would basically explode and then they would go in! With this kind of fire they have to fight it differently. Rather then trying to put it out, they try to find the source or leak and turn that off and then get the fire out. It was neat watching them.

Buttons

Granny has added lots of buttons to her button jar. The boys love playing with them! Doran has been making button people and I love them!

Halloween 2011

I am so behind on blogging! Halloween was a few weeks ago and I am just doing it now! We had a blast for Halloween! Doran was Atom from Reel Steel, Brock was Spiderman, and Sharky was a shark or a dog being eaten by a shark. They all looked awesome! They had a busy Halloween. Thursday they had their preschool party, Friday we trick or treated at the Legacy Center, Saturday was the neighborhood trunk or treat, and Monday was Halloween! It was a blast. Doran changed his costume 5 times leading up to the big day. First we was going to be Harry Potter, then the red power ranger, then the black suited Spiderman, the Darth Vader, and finally Atom. The day of Halloween he wanted to change to a red ninja, but I said no way! Brock was always set on being Spiderman. We went trick or treating with out neighbors the Mills. We always joke that we are going to be family some day anyways!
Here is Sharky in his awesome costume. We thought he looked pretty awesome. It wierded him out a lot at first, but once he calmed down he liked it too.
The boys loved the Legacy Center party. It was a ton of fun and they got lots of candy!


At Miss Julie's Halloween party we played pin the nose on the jack o lantern. Doran and Brock were the two closest (that were actually blind folded)! They felt around and figured out where they should put them!
Ready for the preschool party!
