The Strasser's

Well to start off we went to story time than came home for lunch enough time for a 40 minute nap a least, not true. Alyssa didn't even sleep and Owen slept on and off. Than we went to the doctor. Alyssa had her 3 year appointment. For her weight she is in the 48 percentile, height 3 percentile. Plus she had her shots, she screamed so loud. I felt so bad. Than after that I came home and took Cory's car to the car wash and vacuumed out his car. It was so disgusting. He left a bag from Carl's Jr in his car when he was out and about and after a while we couldn't figure it out but than he was taking out some trash and it was that bag. BUT in the bag were, magits. So I was such a nice wife and went and vacuumed up the dry one's, ya I almost threw up, I did wear gloves because they were all over the floor in the back. Plus I shampooed his car!

So while Vanessa was here we went to Silver Falls. I don't look good in this picture. But I never get in pictures.

Well I have lack of energy lately. Not sure why. But hopefully will get over it soon. So this morning I was in the shower and Owen was asleep on my bed. I heard Alyssa and Owen and they woke up while I was in there and she got on the bed with him and they were playing. When I came out Owen was on his stomach and Alyssa was standing on his back. Owen has the desire to stand up now. He has I think 8 teeth in but I could be wrong. He crawls pretty good. I think he would do better if the floor wasn't hardwood. I can't believe he will be a year old next month. Alyssa is three. She knows a whole bunch of letters and we are working on the rest of the alphabet and number's now. She has her 3 year check up on Wednesday. She loves to ride her bike. She loves to pick out her underwear in the morning, and clothes sometimes. Alyssa is liking to play with Owen more. There is really nothing new with Cory and I. We have our 5 year anniversary on Friday. We are actually going to hopefully g...

I am reading another book Hunger Games. I am not done with it. I am only about 180 pages into it. But so far it is worth recommending.

It is one of those average days. Cleaning the house, laundry, wrapping books, and entertaining the kids. I am going to start working out. I haven't had a whole lot of energy. And I am tired of feeling fat . Owen is standing up more. he has taken a couple of steps with thing that you can push when learning how to walk. I am trying to wean him. Alyssa had her hair trimmed a second time. Her hair is coming in thicker now which is nice. So I am going to wait for a long time to trim her hair again.

Well not a whole lot has been going on. Just cleaning,cooking, laundry all the normal stuff. Some days it doesn't feel like I get a whole lot done but I am working on it. We are going to plant a garden. Today we were going to put the plants in the ground by the weather didn't want to work with us. So hopefully tomorrow! I just finished a book called wings definitely a recommendation.

Yesterday Alyssa, Owen, and I along with Cory's Family went to the zoo. It was a nice day. I tried to take a whole bunch of pictures. The monkey just sat there and was watching Owen. Owen loved watching the monkey. Giraffe Alyssa at the zebra's Alyssa at the hippo's Here is Owen and Alyssa sitting in the bald eagle's nest Here they are with all the cousin's expect for Ashlynn and the one's that Heather & Aleta are pregnant with Alyssa and Siosi Owen chillin in the stroller Kylie and Owen on the hippo Lazy Hippos

Last week was not Owen's week, went to the doctor, has ear infection thinking that Alyssa gave him a fat lip with a toy not quite sure fell off bed made lip worse biffed it a couple of times while crawling went back to the doctor for a nausea shot and a antibotic shot had a fever has high as 104.5 It was definitely not his week. So here are some pictures of Owen's lip after the swelling went down. Some of his skin on his lip was coming off Owen would hold his lip like this and I couldn't look at it.

So I am doing pretty good haven't had to take a whole lot of pain meds. It was the first couple of days that weren't so good for me.

We were having a garage sale today and I decided to go something cold to drink from Sonic, half off drinks from 2-4. I didn't make it. I got through the intersection of state and Lancaster and was almost to Sonic. I was in a long line of cars that were stopped. I was getting ready to move and all of a sudden there was a huge push on my car from a minivan and the minivan got pushed by a suv. no damage to my car but there was some to the minivan and to the suv. I am just really sore I went to the hospital and got checked out cause my neck was sore.

Made a another trip to the doctor's office today. Who would of thought. Two trips this week. This morning his temperature that was the highest was 104.5, along with 1 time vomiting and 4 diarrhea diapers. Ya I know to much information. So I called the doctor once yesterday morning and once last night. Well I was told to call again today and I did cause he threw up. When the nurse came out and got me she said you can't have your parking space yet. Owen ended up getting an antibiotic shot and a nausea shot. They said if it doesn't work by Friday to bring him back in. This kid is the pretty expensive with all the appointments and hospital stuff. It's a good thing that we have different insurance.

Last night was not to fun. Owen was up quite a bit. Last week he was pulling on his ear some and fussing. I wanted to wait to make sure that he just tired and pulling on his ear. Well last night did it for me. So this morning I called and scheduled an appointment. His appointment was at 1:40 I got there about than, and I went in he weighed 24lb 9 oz. On a scale of 1-10 his ear infection was at a 3, so it went up from the last time. Last time he just had a little bit of fluid in his ear and the doctor didn't diagnose it as a full ear infection. So that only took maybe 15 minutes that I went to the pharmacy and I got a number I had 171. I waited for a little bit than my number was called. The prescription hadn't been called in yet. So they had me sit down and wait. I didn't think it would take very long. Oh it did! I waited for an hour than I asked someone if it had been filled and they said that it wasn't called yet and someone was going to call to talk to the doctor. Th...

So yesterday 12 years ago my parents were in a motorcycle wreck. If many of you don't know about the wreck I was like 12 or 13 years old when it happened. My parents were on their way to Logan on a motorcycle and they weren't wearing helmets. My dad has brain damage, short term memory, he broke all three bones in his left leg. My mom broke her pelvis in three different places and she has some really long screws in her pelvis, and she also broke all three bones in her left leg. I don't think about it much. I just wanted to make a not of how long it has been since the wreck.

I posted three entries with pictures.

After the parade and lunch we went to David and Kimber's and Alyssa played on the slip n slide. The boys liked the pool at the end.

We went to the parade yesterday. It was nice weather. I put a lot of sunscreen on the kids. Cory, Dan, and Kurt did cotton candy, and sno-cones. Here's some pictures of us while we were waiting for the parade to start.

Here is my handsome husband showing off his muscles. Here's Kurt, Dan, Cory So yesterday we went to the parade. Cory and Dan were selling cotton candy and sno-kones. Cory got sunburned. He has a pretty cool sunburn on his neck from the apron.

Well i haven't updated much. There hasn't been much going on. We went to a funeral not to long ago. The Iris festival parade is tomorrow. Than Vanessa and her family are coming all the way from Wyoming. My mom is getting married next month. I hope to take pictures and update more now that summer is coming. Last night I went to the craft store and got some fabric to make a bag. I will post pictures when I am done. Owen is crawling around now. He is working on his 7th tooth. I think he might have another ear infection, I am hoping he doesn't though.
