Early Father's Day Gift for Dave

The kids and I decided to spoil Dave this year since he has worked really hard on our house. We broke down and got him a new Plasma TV. Needless to say I made him promise to still stay productive and he said he would so everyone is my witness. :)

Remodled Bathroom

Many of you know that our house was a two bedroom two bath house until the twins came along. We didn't have anywhere to put them so Dave and his dad turned our garage into a bedroom. I am going to have to brag on them because it looks really good. Despite the new bedroom we didn't have a bathroom on that end of the house so Dave and his dad decide to make us one. I am so excited because they did a great job. Again, I am going to have to brag because the work looks like a professional. I guess that is one good thing about a perfectionist husband and father-in-law. :)

New Jacuzzi tub (very relaxing)

Typical Afternoon

The kids love to play and play. It ranges from pushing each other over for a certain toy that they only play with for 2 seconds, to sharing with everyone, or running away. A chaotic as it may be I am so happy for the simple peaceful moments. Take a look at our playtime.









Kisses and Love





Someone got Caylin's toy







Sharing







Dress Up

We have another WALKER

Finally Colby has started taking steps. He is so cautious that he has been afraid to let go of our hands and the wall. He reminds me of my Pepie Raymond, slow and steady. I will be very suprised if Colby ever turned out to be a risk taker because he is so safe, LOL!! Pics to come of our little baby.

Blessings in Disguise

I would like extra prayer for our family. We have had a run of unforunate events that have crossed our paths. It has been very discouraging and makes you question your abilities and such. I guess this is a test of my faith. I know things happen for a reason but it doesn't make it any better. Pray for the kids and us as well.

Teach me Lord, Teach Me Lord to wait....

Ear Infection and Screaming

I need a lot of prayers for Colby. He ran 103.0 fever Saturday and was diagnosed with a right ear infection. He has been having screaming fits and is very irritable. It has been very stressful with all the crying and the others feed off from it as well. Please pray that I will stay calm and compassionate. The screaming is awful to hear and you just want to make the pain go away. He is on antibotics but it usually takes the whole week before he is back to himself. Hurry week!!

Obsessed

I don't know that it is all about but each of my children have a certain obsession. Caylin is obsessed with splashing her hand in the potty water, it is gross. She waddles in the bathroom when I am in there and opens up the lid and has a field day. Colby is obsessed with the broom and how it works and Caleb is obsessed with me sleeping by him so he can go to sleep at night. I am not sure what my obsession would be??? Anyone with strange obsessions??
