PRJFury

So tonight was the debut for Jungle Fury! It was an hour long special that we have been waiting for for weeks. Since Hank has been sick I went to Wal-Mart and got him the two other Jungle Fury power rangers that he wanted. It was fun and I finally saw a smile on his face after three days.

His three Jungle Fury Power Rangers!

My favorite! Green Elephant runner

Getting better

Hank is getting better, according to him. He is only a little bit sick today and is a lot better. He does this little thing with his fingers to show you exactly how much better he is feeling. We are still sitting at home today and watching tv. Tonight is Power Rangers Jungle Fury debut so we are getting ready for our celebration at 5:00. I promised popcorn and a party so that is what we are doing. Hank has been marking the days off for about three weeks waiting for today.

I will post again after our power rangers party with some pictures.

Sick Again

So it is 1:00 AM. We just got out of sitting in our bathroom with a hot shower running and a shower steamer in the tub. If you don't know what that is it is a pellet you put in the shower and it releases a mentholatum steam. Hank has had a fever pretty much all day. It goes away for a little while then it comes right back. His fever is sitting at about 102 right now but he just took some more bubble gum medicine and hopefully will be ok again soon. If not I guess we might be making a late night/early morning trip to the doctors. I guess it is a good thing that his mom is normally a night owl, and that we have the day off tomorrow.

Big Kid School - He got in!

We received a letter stating:
Dear Kris,
We are pleased to inform you that Hank has been officially accepted into Kindergarted class for the 2008-2009 school year. ETC.....

Hank was so excited! BUt he wanted to know why the letter wasn't to him and it was to me! I told him that they had to tell his mom since I was the one paying for it. Anyway I am excited as well. I am glad that Hank got into private school for me it was important that he is in a small classroom and will get the individual learning experience. I also like that he will be wearing a uniform, this will save money on clothes and keeping up with his friends. I also thought it was awesome that Old Navy is in the middle of their kids sale so I purchased a couple of shirts tonight in celebration!

Will Always Remember

My Aunt Barbs birthday is today! She is an amazing person whom is so loved and deeply missed.

I spent Valentines day SAD - Some people think this was because it was Single Awareness Day, for me it was sad because all I could think of was My Aunt drawing a Valentine on her stomach for the doctors. She was happy and positive and laughed the whole time. This was one of the last times that she laughed the way only she could laugh. I know that she is laughing today and is pain free and enjoying her birthday.

Our Fun Snow Evening

So we could not go out and play in the snow last night. It was cold and there were huge wind gusts, Hank would have blown away (his words). So we played Power Rangers, that is the favorite game at our house that is for sure! He has these power rangers that have all of these additional pieces to them, when combined they make an animal. Or you can put the pieces on the ranger and it morphs the ranger into battle mode. I can't beleive how my vocabulary has grown since watching power rangers :) Anyway here are some cute pictures of Hank with the Red Power Ranger and his Lion. (He couldn't get me to make the other animals).

Running through Sprinklers....What?

So in order to understand this post you would have to read the Hollinger Blog. This is what the weather looks like here today in Utah. So much for Spring time and running through the sprinklers. Maybe we can build a snowman this weekend!

And we are going to get another inch. The most horrible part of this storm is not the amount of snow it is the winds. I am just glad that I do not live down in Utah County. They have kids who are still at their elementary school, and it is 9:30 at night.

Big Kid School

So Hank and I went and checked out his new Big Kid School on Sunday. Wow was that hard, I didn't realize how emotional it would be for me. I think we have made our decision to send him to Redeemer Lutheran School. This is the same school that our cousin Andrew went to and Grandma B used to teach Kindergarten there. Hank thought it was really cool that Papa B had built the play hut that was still in his new classroom. The Pastors wife will be his teacher her name is Cathy Fisher. So Hank is excited and if you ask him why the main reasons are:
1. He will get three reeces
2. No Nap time
3. Really cool toys to play with.

I am excited because he will be learning and growing. He also will be wearing uniforms so I won't have to buy as many articles of clothing :)

Papas Birthday

Sunday we all had dinner at Papa Greats house for his birthday. Some of the family was able to make it, Sherry, Craig, Brandon, Jeffrey, Grandma Janet, Briant, Kim, Hank and I. Of course Grandma and Papa were there. I know it was Super Bowl Sunday but since I do not watch sports I had fun watching Hank play with Uncle Bri.

Aunt Sherry made a coconut cake for Papa and cupcakes for the rest of us. The family members who were not able to be there were missed dearly.

Power Ranger Picture

Here is the picture of the Power Rangers that Hank

finished coloring after Aunt Carole sent it to him!

Grocery Shopping

So I caved in and went grocery shopping. I hate shopping of any kind. Ok I do enjoy shopping for crafts but that is it. Hank and I were armed with a grocery list and a few coupons so we went to Harmons to get the shopping done. $175 later we left the store. The good thing is that we now have some healthy food to eat and will not have to shop again for a long time. We have lived in our apartment for almost a year and I have only gone grocery shopping like that three times now. No wonder Hank never eats anything healthy. (those are his words)
