And it begins again


And so it begins again. I took Brooklyn to the doctor yesterday and she has her 1st ear infection. BOO! I was hoping to have at least 1 kid that I didn't have to take to the doctor every other month. But apparently thats probably not going to happen. Bailey had her 1st set of tubes when she was 2. Kaden had his 1st at about 1 1/2. And his 2nd at 2 years old. Wyatt wins the most surgery prize with 3 sets of tubes and 1 eye operation, starting when he turned 1. Way to go, bud! Since Brooky is only 4 months old they will probably make us wait till she is closer to a year old. It seems awfully far away. Luckily she is still pretty happy even when she is sick. And she is still sleeping through the night. What a good girl! We love you Brooky Bear! Feel Better.

Wyatt



I thought I would do a quick update on Wyatt and his eyes. He is doing really well. They are turning yellow and he had a brownish bruise under each of his eyes. Today he is finally looking closer to normal. I am excited to be able to go to the store without people staring at us! Yeah!

Cheer Clinic








Bailey goes to this cheer camp every year and loves every minute of it. It's fun watching her learn new things and become more confident. The 1st picture is with one of my young women (Tammy). She is a sweetie and Bailey loves her. The 2nd picture is with one of her friends Paige Mottishaw and the 3rd one is with her cousin Jensyn (to the right). They are only 6 months apart and complete opposites. But they have soooo much fun together. They remind me of me and my cousin Jenny. No matter how different we were we still thought we were twins. Our moms even dressed us alike. :) Anyways, Bailey did such a great job. Keep on dancin' girl!!

Little Devil


So Wyatt had his eye surgery yesterday morning. They fixed 2 muscles in each eye. He is feeling pretty good, but as you can see he isn't looking that great. We are really happy that the surgery went well and that it is finally over. The next few weeks will be really challenging since we have to put drops in his eyes 4 times a day and it isn't fun for any of us. It definetely stings alot for Wyatt and we hate having to hold him down and see bloody tears coming from his eyes. :( I hope this is the last time he has to have it done. Unfortunely, we won't know for about 12 weeks.
I'm trying to decided wether i should take him to church tomorrow or not. I'm afraid we might scare everyone, especially all the other 4 year olds. We always thought he was "a little devil", but now he looks like it. :( Poor thing! We love you Wyatt!!!!!

Bells

I thought I would post a picture of the newest addition to our family. This is Bells, she was our kids most favorite Christmas Present from Santa. She loves to cuddle and run around the house like a crazy cat. Overall we are really enjoying her. Bailey is bound determined to get her and our dog, Nix, to "bond". The other day she made a sling out of a blanket and tied it to Nix's neck and then put the cat in it so he could carry her around. I don't think he was all that thrilled. But he is getting used to her.
