Yogi Bear

Saturday the older girls and I went with my sister and my nephews to see "Yogi Bear".  It was an okay movie.  It was funny in some parts but mostly just drug on.  Mallory enjoyed it and Isabella did too when she was sitting to watch it.  She got up 3 times.  First was to get another snack, second was to go potty and third was to get a drink.  Mason, my two year old nephew, did better than she did.  That girl has got to have some form of ADD. 
All in all we had a fun day.  The girls love being with their cousins and they all get along so well.  And I enjoy every minute of being with my girls and seeing my nephews.

Wii is Entertaining

Mallory was playing her new game, Babysitting Mama, on the Wii last night.  When my mom and I went to see Haidyn we found her like this:
She found the game to be quite fascinating.  I'm not sure if it was the colors on the TV or the sounds that the baby makes in the game that interested her so much, but I just may have to find my Baby Beethoven movie so that she stays entertained longer than 5 minutes.

Rollerskating=Fun for the whole family

We must really enjoy rollerskating because we went again on Sunday with our church.  We had gone last Saturday to Sioux Falls for Bella's birthday.  I only fell once that week but it happened to be on my bum and I think I damaged something.  It still hurts to sit.  But yesterday I only fell once and this time I made sure I didn't land on my backside so instead I tried to land forward and ended up on my knees.  Have a pretty bruise to show for it.  With Eric's help I made it back up and did pretty good after that.  Haidyn was well cared for by Barb, the pastor's wife.  The older girls had a great time and both only fell once.  Eric, again, was super skater and would only stop to help me off the floor. 

The rest of our weekend was pretty good.  Friday night E and I went out for drinks and supper with my family for my dad's 62nd birthday.  Happy Birthday Dad!!  We have tried to make it a tradition to do supper for both my dad and mom's birthdays.  It's kind of nice b/c Dad's is in January and Mom's is in May.  Because we weren't sure we wanted to go that far for supper we just went to the Sunset Grill.  It was still a fun time.  We were sad to not have Trisha and Brian there but hope they will be able to make it for Mom's birthday supper in May. 

Saturday Eric had overnight drill in New Ulm so the girls and I just hung out at home.  Mallory and I did not get out of our jammies all day.  Haidyn was kind of fussy because she has been having problems with constipation.  She probably pooped about a dozen times but they were all very hard.  Poor girl!  This is her second time having this problem so her pediatrician has prescribed something for her as he thinks she may be prone to constipation.  I gave her prunes for lunch and supper and that, thankfully, has seem to loosen her up since her diapers yesterday were mostly all soft. 

Haidyn is also sprouting her first tooth!!  You can BARELY see it, but you can DEFINATELY feel it.  I was quite surprised to feel it come through b/c she hadn't acted fussy at all.  So hopefully she will do well with teething.  She is such a good baby and we are so blessed to have her in our lives!!
