Praying Women

I am so excited about a new blog. The blog is for women to share their views on their Christian walk. I value what others share and how they have conquered life's trials and tribulations.
Check out the new site and save to your favorites.

We have a Walker and Crawler

As of last night, Caylin took her first 3 steps. She walked to me and Caleb. She is not a pro yet and still prefers crawling but she is on her way to walking. Colby has now started crawling on his knees and Caylin is the leader and he crawls after her. It reminds me of a bunch of hamsters running around. :)

Clean Bill of Health

The twins went for their belated 9 month well check. (They are really 10 months). Caylin weighed in at 17lbs and 26.5 inches long. She is short and squaddy. Colby weighed in at 17.14 lbs and 29 inches long. He is long and thin. I can't believe at one time Colby was 4.9 lbs and Caylin was 4.4 lbs. They were so tiny at one time. As much as they eat I am suprised they are not as big as a house. I have the bills on formula and baby food to prove it, LOL. No one had ear infections and are growing well. I am so proud that everything checked out. Dave went with me and we had all 3 because I had to take all of them with me to make the appointment in time. It was a mess as you can imagine. They did receive their second flu shot and of course that was not welcomed.

Fall Pics







Caleb was gone with his daddy and he missed out on Fall pics I had the urge to do. What do you think?

Tempers Flying

Whoever invented terrible two's did not mention that temper tantrums started way before that. I have a little girl who when being picked up is kicking those feet and throwing a fit. My sweet little boy baby is starting to throw a fit when he doesn't get his way as well and Caleb he is doing pretty good. I think being consistent with him helps a lot.

These children!! If I am gray headed before I am 30 just nod your head and say your hair looks pretty and then secretly think to yourself oh my, LOL!!

Everday is an adventure!! :)

Long Day

Today at school we had reading benchmarks. Most of my kids did well and I am proud of them. It was very long supervising them all and watching them take a test. I am hoping the stress will end soon. The TAKS test puts a lot of pressure on you and the kids.

What is anyones take on tests???

Prayer Warriors

My father in law "Big Dave" starts his chemo tomorrow. He has 8 hours of the treatment via intervenously. He has to watch a video to explain the process before he starts treatment. The treatment will probably make him feel bad so he will need lots of rest. He has 3 medicines prescribed to help with side effects. It is looking like he will have treatments every 3 weeks. He goes back Friday for blood work and next week he sees the doctor again.

I know the Lord has a reason for everything and sometimes it is hard to understand why things happen. I am confident that Big Dave will be fine because he has 3 little reasons to keep going (Caleb, Colby, & Caylin). He is a well loved man and I appreciate him very much. I need him to still take on Lil Dave when he is bothering me, Ha!!
