Update on Jack Jack

This is what Jack Jack looked like 1 week after the accident! Pictures don't do him justice, but his face was a variety of colors! He still gets stares wherever we go, but we just say he has a boo-boo! Then we get lots of stories from other people about their kids and the accidents they had. This one will definitely go in the baby book!

Thanksgiving

So, we went home to Iowa for Thanksgiving and had a nice meal and some time with the family. Here are a few pictures. Here are all 3 kids. Do they look alike??
Isn't she beautiful?? She is so strong and happy!

Aunt Raena.

Best friends Aunt Rhyan and Aunt Teresa.
Uncle Hoppe!

I didn't get a good picture of nana! They were all blurry. We will get her at Christmas! :0)

Santa?

*This is copied from the Enke blog* Cami wrote it well, so why write it again?? I did get the picture in here, but you might have to squint, but we got it!

Regan and I took the boys to Dynasty Buffet (THE best Chinese restaurant in the upper Midwest) and the boys were acting particularly squirrely after eating their main dishes. I gave a stern look to my Hayden and said "you better watch out.. Christmas is coming and Santa might be watching" So, just as I say that, and I see the fear of God in Sam & Hayden - I look up to see a man standing at the buffet stand, dishing up some lo mein and cream cheese won tons - when I notice not only his impeccable taste in food, but his red shirt, large jolly belly and a long white beard. NO LIE!! I burst out laughing and took the opportunity to tell the boys... "hey! for all you know, Santa is HERE RIGHT NOW!!!!!" I looked over Regan's shoulder and motioned her to look, to which she also gasped at such a sight. We became believers in our own threat. I did manage to take a picture (OF COURSE I DID!!!!) but I was being all sneaky and trying to pretend to take Hayden's picture as "Santa" sat down to eat. The picture didn't turn out very well and it's on Regan's camera - so it won't be on the blog yet. But it's there and so was HE!!! :)

You should have seen the look on their faces! Oh, it was priceless! They kept looking at me and Cami like, "Did you really ask Santa to come here??" We laughed forever!

Poor Jack Jack!

Oof! What a day. Jack did not have a good day yesterday! He tripped and fell going down the stairs, and hit his head HARD! As you can see in the picture, it looks really bad, but the good news is that the Dr. said that he is perfectly fine, and he was his usual smiley self two minutes after it happened. You say to him "Jack, do you have a boo-boo?" and he immediately points to it. He is fine, we just feel so BAD! Poor kid!

Limuti family

Here is a recent family picture! Isn't it great? Cami and her family had the best birthday dinner anyone could ask for last night for me, and she took this picture. It isn't the best, but it will do. Things are going ok here at the Limuti house, we just had a fab time with my aunt and uncle, along with my grandma. We had a nice time.

The boys are doing great, Sam is loving school and all is right. Jack is definitely trying to talk more than ever and its really funny hearing him try to say all the neat words. Everyone seems to have the sniffles, but nothing serious.

Hope everyone is good. Leave some comments if you want!

Update at the Limuti House

Hello everyone! I thought I would take a quick moment to tell everyone how we are doing. I don't have any pictures to show anyone, as we are using a friend's computer. Our computer has a nasty virus, and we are waiting to get it fixed. My friend was very generous on letting us borrow her laptop, just so I can check email everyday. So, until that is fixed, no pictures.

Halloween was a lot of fun! Sam was a NASCAR driver, (the m&m guy) and Jack was one of the 101 Dalmatian dogs, maybe #57? :0) We went to our friend's the Enke's where we had an awesome supper, and then we went around their neighborhood and got some great candy! It was so nice out, we barely needed coats, usually you are freezing! I think even one year when I was a kid, I went trick or treating in a blizzard! So, that was a nice change, not being cold. This was Jack's first year, and he was so excited! He wasn't really sure what we were doing, but he certainly figured it out after the first house! He would run up to the house, make sure they gave him the candy in his hand, inspect it, and then once he was satisfied, he would then drop it in his bag! Then he would turn around and run yelling "daddy" running to show him what he got. It was so cute. He absolutely loved it. He didn't want to quit. Sam also of course, loves Halloween, but this year was not as fun. He was really into it at first, but as we got going, he just didn't feel well. He was running a fever, and wanted to go home. Which brings me to the next point....

Sam has been running a fever since Friday, with it running anywhere from 100-103. So, when he woke up with it again yesterday morning, I decided to take him in. I was thinking it was ear infection, since that is usually what it is. So, I was surprised when the Dr said his ears were clear. Turns out, he has tonsillitis, his throat and tonsils are inflamed. He said its all viral with the fever can run up to 10 days! Wow. So, I have him on Motrin and Tylenol. That's all we can do, but the poor kid cant go to school today, so he is really bummed out. You cant go to school unless you have been fever free for 24 hours. Still has one. I hope this goes away soon! Jack has a cold, with a bad cough, but its OK.

My beautiful niece Parker is getting bigger by the minute! I wish I could post pics of her, but I will once I am able. I cannot wait to see her on Thanksgiving! This is what I hate about not living close to them, we cant see each other very often, but I think someday we will.

Sam has Fall Parent days this Wednesday, which means that I get to go and spend the whole day with Sam at school to learn about what he has been doing, and how he is progressing, so I am looking forward to that. I will let everyone know how that goes!

We get the dreaded flu shots this week also, even though Joe and I have had the stomach flu this year, hopefully we can avoid any other strains for a long time! Do not want a repeat of that!

I hope everyone is having a great fall, keep us updated on how you are doing!
