A house full of girls

Here are two girls that LOVE to dress up. We are constantly entertained by the different costumes that they come up with. They always have made up names and fun ideas. Today they were "stretch girl" and "dance girl".

I always have to laugh at Brad. He is constantly surrounded by girl everything. Our girls are VERY girly and they expect him to play right a long. I had to get a picture of the latest...Barbie bandaids on his big manly foot. He had a couple of blisters from playing basketball. A couple of months ago, he had to go to school with a Hello Kitty bandaid on his finger. :) I love it!

Sweet Olivia


As many of you know, Olivia has battled lung problems from the time she was 6 months old. She has spent a lot of her little life in hospitals and doctor's offices. With all that she has been through, she is SO sweet and the best little patient. Last Thursday, she was admitted into a Topeka Hospital for pneumonia and asthma issues. She was there for a couple of days, when they decide to life flight her to Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. She really scared us! We are SO THANKFUL for good friends and family that prayed and fasted for her. We really witnessed a miracle. She is doing so much better!!! She should be able to come home in the next few days. Brad has been at the hospital the entire time because our little Ella has RSV and is not allowed to be with Olivia. I have been in Topeka with Ella and Addison. We went up for a visit today and Olivia was so cute!! She said, "Addie! You have got to try a helicopter ride, I saw the sky!" It is so great to see that she is acting like herself again. She even had the energy to play Barbies. :)
