A visit To the Fire Station

Thursday we went with our Mommy play group to the local fire station for some education. The kids LOVED IT! They got to hold the fire hose and play in the water. The fire fighters built them a mini pool out of tarps and medal rods. It was the coolest thing I've ever seen. THey met a fire fighter in his full gear and were taught fire safety from a singing fire truck. It was so great! Next time they do it we'll be there again for sure! Everyone should check to see if there local fire department does something like this. Lexi has been spouting off fire info ever since we got back!












Happy 28th Birthday Daddy!





You're an old Man Daddy! Closer to thirty than I am :) LOL! We love you!!! XOXOXOXOXO

Our New Kitten

So, we had a female kitten only five or so weeks old. She suddenly passed away one morning. So Matt grabbed a shovel and we gave her a proper funeral. When speaking to the vet's office they suggested we try a knew kitten as soon as we were ready. The kids and Matt were of course were ready right away.... as for me it took a little while. We went a few days later and brought home Buddy. He's been truly great for everyone! Fun and very affectionate kitten.


What's Happening Now....

Hello all! I've been asked on several occasions to update my blog.... So here I am on a Sunday morning home from church with a sick little girl. What better time to do it :)! So here's the happenings, Matt started Language training almost two months ago now. ( can't believe it's already been that long) He's totally kicking butt and being blessed with help from Heavenly Father. He's been able to get high scores each time they test he scores in the mid to high ninety's. Yes we feel truly blessed! It's amazing to see all of our blessings so clearly now. Everything we have done has led us here. Lexi and Andy will be starting school in August. This I can't believe! Lexi misses the cut off date for Kindergarden by two weeks. She was very upset! But I found a program that she can attend called more at four. It's just like Kindergarden but run through a State funded Preschool. Since Andy has had so many speech issues he gets to go a few hours a week and enjoy preschool. As for Andy and Speech... He's amazed me! Grandpa called yesterday and Andy talked to him... ( he thought it was Lexi because he was talking so well :) He was amazed at how well Andy was doing. Andy has also felt confident enough to talk on the phone. The Grandparents are all enjoying that! As an update on me.... the medical testing still goes on. I've got several appointments in July and yet another Bone scan. I'm hoping that this will yield more answers. I've been pretty sick for the past couple months now. Stress Fractures and several compound fractures in my right foot and toes/ankle area. That's what started all the testing anyway. I've also had several other symptoms that a "normal" 27 year old shouldn't have. They have several ideas as to what might be going on it's just all a process of elimination. I will update you all as soon as I have a handle on exactly what it is and how they will be treating everything. On a brighter note I've been able to have the cutest little babies in the house. I started watching some kids and am really enjoying that! I've also been blessed with a few very close friends here who have always been more than ready to help me out by doing things like watching the kids for Dr.'s appointments and such. Thank you guys... you know how amazing you are :)! Anyway, we'll keep taking one day at a time and being thankful for what we have been blessed with!
