Randomness

After 3 very long months of straight sick kids (really its been 3 months), Im happy to say were mostly healthy (Taylor just got another cold two days ago).  The babies have had 3-4 ear infections a piece and the each have had RSV twice.  Brayden is still having his oxygen levels monitored when he sleeps because he was so bad and is still having issues keeping his levels up sleeping.  Its been a crazy few months and very stressful.  Hopefully we are through the worst and we can stay healthy for a bit. 
We are doing great if we can just stay healthy.  Having four kids is wonderful.  There are still days when I look at all 4 of them together and it looks like a ton of kids to me.  We are a huge spectatacle every time we go in public.  I am getting a small sense of what celebrities go through when they go in public.  EVERYONE stops us, asks us tons a questions, tell me there glad its me not them, and want to pull the car seat covers off to see the babies.  Their babies people, just because theres two of them, they still look like babies. We live in Utah, theres 5 babies every way you turn. And they ask me 2-3 times just to make sure they heard right that I have 2 sets of twins.  Its annoying, I know were rare, but Im am starting to not be nice.  I just keep walking or I try my hardest to pretend I dont hear them and walk faster.  I know it sounds bad but, really I get so sick of it.  The worst part of it is Josh and Taylor are always asking me, "Mom, why does everyone say its so bad to have twins, and they dont want them?"  Try explaining that to a 4 year old.
Lonnie is doing great.  He has somehow stayed healthy through all of this.  The rest of us have passed it to each othere 2-3 times each but he stays healthy.  What a blessing.  He just got a unreal job offer that we are so excited for.  I am so proud of him.  He officially starts the first of April. 
Here are a few pics of the past little bit.  Weve been stuck in the house a lot so we dont have to many photo ops.  Enjoy!!   
Sorry couldnt figure out how to rotate this one

Brayden- getting his breathing treatment. I couldnt believe how much time it took out of my day doing 2 babies breathing treatments every 3-4 hours

Our little outing to Orange Leaf (they have Diary free ice cream).  Its so fun to be able to take my boys to get ice cream.  Weve never been able to, because they cant have dairy, until this plays opened.  They love it.
