Missing the Primay program! :(

Today is our wards primary program and Crew and I are at home. He is feeling much better, but still has a cough. I am so sad I am missing it, it is Mitchells last one. He is sooo glad. They all had their parts memorized and looked so cute, I had to take a picture.

Halloween party

Last night we went to a Halloween party and had a great time. Brady insisted he be a swimmer and I the egg. After weeks of trying to figure out how to make an egg costume, I finally came up with one. We had a great time and even won most original costume! Ya baby! In case you can't read what Brady's cape says, it says, Fallopian Swim Team. Needless to say we got a lot of laughs. Sorry, I don't know how to rotate my pictures so they all go the same way. Can anyone tell me how to?? :p

pumpkin patch

Last Thurs. Crew and I went on a field trip for his preschool to the Pumpkin Patch. We were almost there and it started to rain! It was windy and freezing. We had a hay ride in the rain, Crew was not feeling good and trying to make him pick a pumpkin was like pulling teeth without novicane! He then went through a little hay maze and was ready to go home. It would have been really fun if the weather would have been nice and if Crew would have felt good. We were supposed to have a picnic lunch after, but we were so cold and our hands were so numb, we just came home. Only to find out the next day Crew would have a fever of 103.8 and coughing like a seal. Yep, you guessed it, he got croup!! After two nights in the bathroom with a steam shower going and then going outside, I took him to the doctor. He has to be on a steroid for 3 days. Today he is much better but still coughing, hence that is why I am not at church at the moment! It's been a great week, I felt like I had a new born for a few days! (lack of sleep)

Ok,Ok, new post!

Alright, I have had enough complaints about not updating my post. You see, we are still eating, drinking, and sleeping football and I know you are all sick of that as am I. I don't have any little babies to take pictures of all the time like most of you have. So, here is my best shot at an update. Crew loves to wear his power ranger costume everywhere we go, so this morning we went to walmart. Everyone commented on how cute he looked. He also has to wear his angels hat everywhere we go. He is pretty dang cute I must say. I kiss on him all day. Lucky for me he still likes to snuggle and doesn't push me away when I kiss him. So....... then I thought, what other pictures could I take????? I thought I would take one of our legs we have in the front of our yard. Every Halloween we put up these legs and it is so fun to watch people drive by. They slam on their brakes and stare and then laugh. So, there you have it, my update probably until Halloween. We are all doing well and are all healthy. (knock on wood) Love and miss you all!

We Love Fall and Football

Fall is the time for football here at the Cottles house. We have practice every day and games all day on Sat. Katelyn is a cheerleader for Mitches team and loves every minute of it. Mitchells team is the orange and white, Jadens is the black and yellow. They both eat, drink, and sleep football. Katelyn is in all her glory cheering. She is so dang cute. Jaden plays center and snaps the ball. He is very good at it and loves to play defense too. Mitch plays both offense and defense. He took a hard hit to his kidneys, but is doing much better. Hope and pray that neither one of them get hurt seriously! Go Broncos, Go Steelers!! (the name of both their teams)

Football = Black eye

Crew was out playing football with his Dad and brothers the other day and came in just screaming. Apparently he had been "going long" to catch the ball and was running at full speed, not looking were he was going. You guessed it, he ran smack dab right into the metal bar of the tramp. Layed him out flat. Poor little guy, I don't know if the pictures will do it justice or not, but his eye was swollen and turned all black and blue. We call him our little prize fighter!!
