liv-ers

olivia (or "liv-ers", as she is known to some) is getting to be such a good baby. she is very pleasant. she likes to smile and laugh a lot. now, if we could just stop her from spitting up everything she eats and scratching herself.

hey baby...nice glass!

i got a new lens for my camera. it sure is pretty. hopefully i will have lots of new pictures to post soon. nice shower curtain!

cruppen

we have been sick since christmas. but the culmination of our sicknesses came while i was away in missouri. harrison was complaining that he had trouble breathing. maizie called the pediatritian and had about two hours before he could be seen. harrison's complaining got to the point she dropped everything and took off, luck for us. after 5 minutes in the car harrison stopped breathing and began kicking the window trying to get air. maizie saw the instacare and pulled right in. she carried him in and everyone dropped what they were doing and began working on him. they called the ambulance immediately. a brother in the lobby was able to give him a priesthood blessing. and he was rushed to Utah Valley. there where about 12 doctors and nurses that saw him in the emergency room. it was the crupe, he was admitted and stayed there tuesday, wednesday and was release thursday afternoon. we took him back thursday night because he was having trouble again but he came home that night. we are so blessed to still have him with us. everything worked out. he still has alittle trouble breathing and is forced to whisper, something new for him.

he knows how to make the most of a bad situation.

the pediatric wing was better than home with every video game console known to man. Harrison i have cookies for you! really, cookies, and candy!

one of the great nurses at utah valley. harrison really seems to like her.

it's beginning to look alot like christmas

we have had two good snows here in utah valley. the kids have really enjoyed it. "we" were able to make our first "successful" family snowman (we named him "goob"). when i say "we" i mean madelaine and i while harrison had us running all over the yard telling us we had to get it done before the snow melted. ti general nou-a (our little general), he is a good dictator (oh i mean delegater). we all hope there is snow in missouri this christmas. we will be there at the harpers for christmas having a ball. well, we hope weather is good going and coming but we hope to have a white christmas while we are there. until then, here's hoping everyone a very merry christmas.

here are some pictures of our newest edition "goob," the snow here in utah and our sweet olivia who is too young for the snow, although we know she is a party animal.

a visit with "gee gee"

we went to show off our new baby to her great-grandmother. maizie and i think olivia has gee gee's expressions, we see alot of gee gee in her. i think it is the eyes.

this is for you mom and dad

hope korea is treating you well.

here are (some of) the ones who miss you.
