Ok so I am still getting used to blogging and I am such a procrastinator but it's a work in progress, I know I have so many updates and its a nice form of keeping in touch so First things first, I am at my new job and have been for three weeks I am so stoked to be back in mortgage and Love working with Danell my new boss... She is great I am in my very own large office that is also very empy... I just have not had the time to put things up and my personal handy mans been working too much overtime to come hang my pic's. I would do it myself but they are huge and heavy... I love being part time again I am only working 12-5 and the money is better and I am able to make it to all of tielers appointments and I am not constantly Running from place to place the kids love it too. As for Gary he just had his 29th birthday on the 8th and I bought him a new Grill it is so nice we have been using it like crazy! He has been working lots and the overtime checks are great! Jaxen just got his well child check up last week at the doctor he is taller for his age which is funny being that me and gary are on the shorter end ( GARY is average height... excuse me...) but he is up to 34 pounds and I can't beleive how big he is he is growing up too fast!! He is on a new medication for his asthma which seems to be working alot better, he is actually taking it finally he has learned how to suck in his air its pretty funny. Jaxen is totally into coloring and making things with his art stuff he is a side walk chalk artist as well. He has been enjoying playing with Tie they can play so cute together they hide and gigle its fun to see them play together finally! As fot tieler she has had a hard six weeks after finally getting rid of the thrush that we could not get rid of, we come to find out that the reason she had lost her voice was becaus of a severe case of esophagitis. We had stopped giving her the prevacid with ok from the pediatrician and she devolped ulcers in her esophagus, we could not see them becasue of the crazy thrush that had spread down her throat. We feel terrible she has been dealing with this for over a month the esophigitus is painfull. :( But she is back on the medication and doing well the past few days we are hopeful that her voice will return and she can gain more weight. Sadly she lost almost a pound and a half dropping her back in the 2nd percentile ( SO FRUSTRATING) But the good news is we are finally starting soy milk this week! We are so over the formulas and she loves the taste! Hopefull we can bulk her up! She also is doing well in physical therapy she is almost there with the walking a few more months and she will be ready! She has been climbing up the slide like a spider its so funny she looks so small but she is so fast! I will upload the video of her on the slide when she gets to the top she turns around and slides and says WEE! It is so cute. With adversity comes strength, we are so blessed to have the health we do everytime we are at primarys I am so lucky that we are able to go back home, Even through times were we have been there for days we still go home. There's so many families with sick kids and I am grateful every day that we have been able to have things we can manage, Its not easy but manageble and for that were so blessed. We are so grateful for everyones love and support we have the best families and friends.

Getting Lost in it...

Wow! So 2008 has been a crazy year, I fell like I have been in a whirlwind of change and growth... I guess my perceptions have had a large amount of growth. I always thought when your were "old" or an "adult" or "a parent" life turns you into someone else, But I still feel like myself even though everything has changed! I cannot believe it is August.. and soon winter again :( Life happens too fast!
Well I am soon to be unemployed...Yay! But only in between jobs but the break will be awesome!!! I can't wait to have a couple weeks with the kids, Jaxen has been so much fun and so difficult... 3 wow; is a leap from 2 he is so smart but with his intelligence comes his desire to test the limits.... He has lots to say!! LOL Some of the stuff I seriuosly wonder were he thinks of it! Tonight he told me he was going to fix the truck and he would do a good job, just like daddy... Gary couldn't not smile it was cheesy but cute....
We are also celebrating the money saved now that we can buy soy formula!! YES!!! Tie gets to try it for two weeks and if all goes well (so far so good...) she will have it for 3 months and move to soy milk by eighteen months!! We are so psyched about the extra funds even though they will go staright to other things like all our funds do... :) it's a huge savings by 75% She seems to really like it and is adjusting smoothly!! (Thank Goodness!) We have had such a hard year but have learned so much, its been a week of reflection on the expeirences of life...Good and bad! Tomorrow's a new day!
