Halle is Counting!!!!

Halle is counting now!! She has actually been doing it for a couple of weeks, but only continues to get better at it. We were just able to get her on video tonight and wanted to share it with all of our friends and family. Listen to that redneck draw at the end though!!!! What is that?

Happy Birthday Too Me......

I just thought I would share with everyone our girls trip to Belmont last Saturday night for my birthday. We had all been talking about going to stay in the cabins at Mimosa Ridge for a while. It is wonderful over there and so close to home. We took lots of food and good drinks too. We had the best time singing karaoke and just laughing together. Thanks girls for such a wonderful weekend.

Snow Day 2010

You can see where we had to drag out feet through the snow to make snowballs.

All bundle up and headed outside

Front yard

This was the first thing that Halle did when we got home that day.

I didn't even have my coat off yet before she was staring outside.

Back to the doctor we went!!!!!

Okay, so I have about decided to let my sister start keeping Halle instead of letting her go to daycare!!!!!!!!!!!! I awoke this morning to Halle in her bed barking like a seal!! I thought oh she will be okay. Well I went on to get ready to go to work and when I went to wake her up I could literally hear every breath she took. I called my step-mom to see if she thought the strep could be part of it, but she mentioned bronchitis and I freaked out. So, I called Darrin and he told me to go ahead and take her to the doctor in Tuscaloosa. So, we left the house about 7:20 this morning and signed in at the doctor at 8:30 with 10 other walk-ins ahead of us. Well we finally got called back to a room at 10:00. We got to see the doctor about 10:30. I was not very happy and Halle was getting very antsy. So, she now has the Croup. She could not go back to daycare today and they want her to stay out tomorrow. They say that croup is usually a three day illness and on the second day, which would be tomorrow that they usually run fever. So, here we are again at home. I finally accrued 1 sick day at work yesterday and had to use it today!!! That really sucks. Hopefully I will get them built back up soon. Please keep us in your prayers that Halle will get well soon.

Happy Birthday John Huston

This past Saturday we all went to Greensboro for John Huston's first birthday. They had it so cute with a dog theme. They had cookies that looked just like dog biscuits, cereal that looked like dog food and some yummy puppy chow( just the name of it), but it's made with chex cereal, chocolate, peanut butter and confectioner sugar. Yum!!! Oh and don't forget about the yummy cake and ice cream that I broke my diet for. I really hate that I forgot my camera at home. So I have no pictures to share. Happy Birthday John Huston. We had a ball!

I am trying to catch up.....

There has not been much new going on with the Hynniman family lately other than sickness. Two weeks ago Halle came home on a Thursday running fever. The next morning Darrin took her to our local doctor in town and she tested positive for the flu and negative for strep, but they treated her anyway for strep since it has been going through her daycare like crazy. So, we were treating her with antibiotics and tamiflu for about a week. She stayed in and we were all going stir crazy, but with the weather being as cold as it has we decided she better stay in. She finally got to go back to daycare last Tuesday. We are all so excited that she is feeling better.
