Marion updates and a giveaway

Hello,
 We went with my parents to church the other week and Marion was so excited to bring home her nursery hand out. She was singing the song I" I am a child of God" on our way home. I managed to get a video of her singing it again for me here.

Here is a digital scrapbook page I made using the my memories software.

Thanks I hope all are well and have a good day!

Liam is doing fantastic

Hello friends and family,

 I am sorry for not updating this sooner. Liam has been rash free for about two weeks now. We took him to see his pediatrician two Thursdays ago and his doctor said that the rash was not Molluscum, so he was cleared to go to school for that Friday. Well, so we thought..until we discovered that night that Liam had  come down with "Pink eye". Ahhh poor kid, he had to miss his first week of school,but by the next Monday he was ship shape and ready to go. The doctor said he just had a reaction to something and he recomended to the lotion "Amlactin" it is awesome!

Don't get me wrong though,Liam still had about five molluscum bumps around his privates,but that is gone now thanks to "Zymaderm". It really works and the best part is that you can get it at Walgreens in the first aid section.

Here is the website where you can learn more about it. Naturopathix
Thanks for all your concern and prayers.

Problem with Molluscum Contagiosum

As some of you may know, my son has been diagnosed with Mollusum Contagiosum. He has had this for about 6-7 months now,but we have just recently found out what it was called. On our first visit with the doctor he said it was a virus that would eventually just go away. Well it spread and so we took him in again,at this appointment the Doctor diagnosed him and then he applied some medicine on each bump to help the bumps fall off. After he did this they turned into bubbles and then flattened out. I thought everything was going just fine,
Before

Until two days ago. He came in at 3am to go to the bathroom and it's then that I noticed that the bumps had spread not only in the areas surrounding his previous bumps,but now they had traveled all the way down both legs and arms and his lower back.
After

 The large ones are the chemically treated ones,but look at all the new ones!

You need to enlarge these pictures in  order to really see all the bumps.
 Poor poor little guy! I feel terrible! He can't go to school until he has a doctors note and it would have been his first day of kindergarten yesterday,he was so sad! I wish I would have never gone into the doctor he would have been better off with the 40 bumps he had before vs the hundreds that he has now! I can't even see a Dermatologist until the 19th of Septemeber.
  Now I know I sound like Debbie downer,but I am trying to stay optimistic. I found this topical serum online called " ZymaDerm". You can find it at Walgreens in the first aid section or online. The company is Naturopathix. It is expensive,but if it works it will be worth it. I am supposed to apply it twice a day for at least 30 days. This will be good practice of patience. I don't really have many other options right now anyway. This will be the longest post of them all. I am just trying to record my progress on here to see if this stuff really works. I just feel sick, I just want him to get the help he needs.

Daddys little girl

As I was going through my pictures I noticed a trend going on. I noticed that I had an awful lot of photos with Marion and Mark. Here are a few recent ones that I love.
Now as some of you know, Mark has to work on Sundays so when he gets a Sunday off it is a big occasion and I have to take pictures like I did here.

This next picture is just one example of the many times they snuggle on the floor. This is Marion's favorite thing to do. Usually she will have her 49ers blanket with her,which by the way used to be Dad's,but he let her keep it. The boys are still mad about that.

Here they are I think watching a preview on Redbox.

  This next one was taken in April and this just slays me. Is this true love or what?

 Every moment like this makes me love him even more. There is nothing more priceless than a Daddy who loves and takes care of his babies.

We are still here.

Hello,
 Sorry it has been so long since I have posted on here. But I did want you to know that we are still here.

This month has been a cluster of experiences. Aiden and Liam finished up their soccer season. Aiden has informed me that he is done with soccer. He has played three years of indoor soccer, but he would like art lessons instead. Liam will go to soccer under the condition that they always supply snacks at the end. Here are some photos of their soccer parties.

This month was also the month for the "Mother and son dance".
 I was so excited! Aiden was crying because he didn't want to go, but we went anyway and we really cut a rug! He now wants to go next year.

 Speaking of dances...Auntie Robin went to prom and I helped her with her hair. It was so fun and she looked beautiful!

 This month was not only for mothers and sons,but also for the "father and son camp out"! The boys were beside themselves in anticipation. This was their third year so they are getting a hang of this whole camping deal. They went up to lake Hemet and had a blast!Mark even caught a fish with his bare hands! A dead one that is,that was floating on the water,but he didn't tell everyone that tidbit.

Now you might be wondering where Marion is this whole time, she is still here as well. She has been miss chatter box lately. In fact we have to watch what we say because she is repeating everything! Yesterday she was calling me "Connie" Instead of Mommy. Or she will say "Hey mom". The little stinker. 

Here is playing tea party in her room.

I hope everyone is doing well, remember to check out my craft blog. The crafterbug.

Marion these days

 While thumbing through the pictures I realized that I needed more Marion photos. I took this one this week.

She is such a cheezer when when she wants to be. Her vocabulary is expanded everyday. Today she was saying " I want to come" and "I want some". She also took her diaper off twice today so that she could sit on the toilet. She is trying to catch up with her brothers. Speaking of brothers,Marion loves the boys room. That is where she colors on herself at least 4 times a week.
    The other day we got to have her little friend Rubi come over to play.

 They were playing dress up with some stuff we had. I need to make some dress up clothes for future play dates.

They had fun most of the time. Until Marion started hitting poor Rubi and she was sent to bed.

The tooth fairy came to town!

We have reason to celebrate! Aiden Kimball Wallace was successful in losing his tooth on April-2-2011. He has been working on this particular tooth for about a week. He would like to tell you how he lost it. "I was opening a honey jar for my biscuit and it was too hard for my  hands. So I used the bottom of my mouth and it opened and hit my loose tooth. It landed on my napkin." So there you have it folks, now you know the secret of how to lose a tooth.

We made a special little bag for the tooth fairy.
