Craziness

Well I have managed to get all the laundry done, and that is HUGE in the Munn household. That hasn't happened very often in the 8 years we have been married, so needless to say our house is a little less full of piles. We spent last night at the emergency room with Abigail. She had two severe bloody noses that sent mom and dad into a panic. We could not believe how much blood came out of that little nose and body. They think they were caused by this yucky cold that has been passed from person to person in our house. She tends to get bloody noses when she is sick but we had never seen one that bad. She was very brave at the hospital and has decided she would like to become a doctor. We also have had car troubles with the Jetta and will be getting it back today from the shop. We took it in because there was a little light that came on saying we need to get it checked and about $1000.00 later they think they have everything fixed and working right. We certainly hope they have it fixed and working right, but feel blessed that we just got our tax return back and had almost that exact amount of money still sitting in our account. We are constantly blessed. So now we are just trying to take it easy before another form of chaos comes our way when we bring home a baby. The doctor thinks it will be sooner than later but he says that every time and on our due date I always go waddling in to his office, so we will just assume we have 2 1/2 weeks left to go. I still have some cleaning to do so it will be ok.

Good Times all Around


I was on a business trip this week and had the opportunity to go watch the Harlem Globetrotters in Seattle. It was pretty cool. I have never seen them before and while it was choreographed, it was still cool to watch some of the monster dunks that they did. All that I have to say is WOW!!! They are amazing.

We are also excited because Kim is starting her weekly appointments for the baby and the doctor said that she is pretty far along and may not make it to her due date. For some reason I am giddy about this. I want to finally see this beautiful girl and spend time with her. My little Rooster is going to be SO jealous.

I am jacked


I think that this is the best year of my life. On top of every other blessing that I have had, now I find the long lost mission companion. I have been looking for my friend since I lost contact with him after he came to our wedding over 8 years ago. I have been randomly Googling him and this last week I went on another spurt of trying to find him. I took a random guess about the year that he graduated, Googled it, figured out what city he was from...long since forgotten but I knew that he was from Cali. I then tried a few combos and found him in California on a Chiropractor database. From there it was easy. He called me a few hours later and I really hope that I didn't scare him away cause I was so pumped to hear from him. It has been over 24 hours now and I am still all jacked up about it. He was one of my best friends on my mission and one of two that I would actually like to keep in touch with. Justin, glad to hear from you.

Happy Birthday



It is Kim's Birthday today and she is so happy cause she was pulled over and ticketed this morning on her paper route. Nice way to start the day. Poor girl isn't just getting older, but she is now a fugitive of the state. Have a great Birthday Babe. No more tickets...

Kids

Kids are great. I am obviously partial to my own, but I really do think that they are some of the best kids in the whole world. We struggle with the obvious stuff, like cleaning their room, sharing, etc. On a whole, they are wonderful children. This is in large part due to my wife. This weekend we had a wonderful time just hanging out. I enjoy seeing our children interact with other kids. It is a wonderful thing to see Hailee developing into such a great young lady. Abigail is sassy, but you can really see her growing up. They both are wonderful kids, but even better examples to our, for the time being, littlest Natalie (Rudy, Roo, Rooster, Buddy, or whatever you want to call her). Hailee woke up on Sunday, took a shower, got the other kids in the bathtub, got them out, made breakfast and had them almost ready for church by the time I got back from my meetings. That may not seem like a lot, but she is 6. She does this kind of stuff every day. Abby loves her little sister. She plays with her, shares with her, wrestles with her and comforts her when she is sad. You can really see the look of concern when Natalie is hurt or sick. She is a great kid. I won't comment on Natalie yet, but she sure is a great kid too. I love to come home after work and have her so excited to just hand out with me. She is so cute and is really helpful too. I always tell them that they are the best _insert_age_here_ year old ever and I really do believe that.

When will the sickness end?

I cannot wait for us to finally get over being sick. One person always seems to have a runny nose, cough, pink-eye, gas :) etc.... the list just seems to never end. We will survive cause we always do, but not without me whining just a little, and sometimes a lot. Mike just returned from the Klondike campout with the scouts and he had a BLAST. Ok a blast might be stretching the truth just a little, but he did return with some very funny stories and he has all of his limbs despite the cold, cold weather. We sure miss him when he is gone. We use him being gone as an excuse to have a girl party. The girls love to eat Little Ceasars Pizza and crazy bread when he is gone- because Mike doesn't care for Little Ceasars cheap pizza. They also got to stay at Grandma Dree's and Grandpa Todd's for the night. They loved that. I sure appreciate all support our family is to us.
