nd three little angels all snug in their beds posted by emily at 8 57 pm no comments wednesday march 16 2011 the verdict is in well we have been waiting for over a month to get ethan in to see the allergy doctor since he was born he has coughed constantly he can t run skip jump rough house or do anything high energy without coughing the poor guy every time the weather changes he starts in too he coughs so hard it hurts when we got to the doctors office he was a little nervous we waited for quite a while so i gave him my camera to play with i never give them anything important to me to play with my phone and camera are absolutely off limits since it was just ethan i wanted to calm his fears so i gave him my sacred camera he embraced his artistic side and began snapping away he was such a trooper when they brought the white prongs out and pushed them on his back it itched and hurt and he didn t shed a tear when dr white came in we found that ethan is not allergic to anything inside praise god the cats can stay he passed with flying colors on everything but one thing outdoor mold the bad news outdoor mold is in the air 10 months out of the year the two months it isn t january and february everyone is sick anyway the good news its treatable pulmicort breathing treatment everyday bath everyday every time he comes inside he has to wash his hands and face hopefully he will grow out of it in a year or two posted by emily at 9 02 pm no comments tuesday march 15 2011 dorothy lion monekys and giraffe oh my we got home the other day and i was busy making supper when the kids decided to pull out their old costumes out it was so funny they had monkeys a lion and giraffe first they practiced their biggest roars followed by their best monkey impersonations princess dorothy then they proceeded to pull each others tails that was what they did for the next hour i have to say it was nice to fix supper in peace for once see mom this is how monkeys do rrrooooooaaarrrrr landon s best monkey impersonation posted by emily at 8 33 pm no comments saturday march 12 2011 how do we discipline ethan without breaking his spirit that is the long time question we have wrestled with he is our most difficult and disruptive of the bunch rob and i look back to when they were just little babies he was our best baby easily the most laid back and happy its funny i can see the character traits he s inherited from rob and me from what i ve been told rob was a very goofy little boy he did everything in his power to annoy his sister he did things like throw a croquet ball in the air and miss it and knock himself out he was just goofy always into something he wasn t supposed to ethan is the same way he doesn t play with things like normal people he breaks stuff or hurts himself because he doesn t play like a normal kid he takes toys and causes turmoil and disruption ethan is similar to me in his lack of imagination and enjoyment in playing i didn t like playing pretend or barbies or dolls as a kid i was more task and goal oriented give me a task and i would work on it until i completed it he is just like that he doesn t know how to play pretend ethan gets bored with toys and activities quickly he may not have the knack of playing but he has been given an ear for music that is definitely a trait not inherited from myself or rob he can hear a song one time and practically have it memorized he even puts the vibrato in his voice when he sings i pray he has a good voice when he gets bigger every second of his day he has a song going through his head you know how you hear a song and it drives you crazy because you can t get it out of your head ethan can learn anything by music that is his niche so how do we try to reign in his outbursts and disruption without breaking his spirit he is in trouble for screaming and yelling songs teasing and disrupting the other kids he is always in trouble its been rough i feel like he likes getting in trouble this week has been particularly bad for ethan he was very disruptive and blatantly disobedient he ran out in the drive thru at mcdonalds turned around and smiled after being told seconds before to stay on the sidewalk stuff like that all the time so i made the tough decision to keep him home with rob and me friday night instead of letting him go with the others to grandma and papaw s house we spent the next 24 hours working with him and trying to start a new strategy we went to walmart and bought 5 rain gauges they are the perfect size for pennies so now we are earning pennies for any good behavior we are going to reward pretty much anything good once they get pennies up to the 1 they get in a treasure box once they fill their gauge up to the 5 they will go to walmart to pick out a cheap toy ethan picked up on it right away hopefully this will give him something to work towards we will see posted by emily at 7 32 pm 4 comments tuesday march 8 2011 pizza we had a fun filled evening at sandy s pizza tonight our long time friends brian ashley and soon to be big sister trisha met us at our favorite pizza place we both have been really busy and have looked forward to getting together for a loud rowdy but fun time any time you get my five little ones together with their best friend trisha there is bound to be lots of shouting running laughing playing and loads of fun sandy s has buffet on tuesday nights and kids under 6 eat free that is right up our alley it has been a really cold dreary rainy day the rain has set in and is going to be here until morning i think i m hopeful for warmer weather soon the kids are itching to get out and play i can t wait for the time change this weekend i m trying to train for a half marathon on april 30th it gets dark so early we haven t been able to do much running outside with the time change we will have another hour of daylight to get in some miles sorry i haven t posted in a while i haven t taken any pictures lately i hate to post without pictures that s partly the reason i haven t posted lately i kept telling myself to take the camera with me so i can snap some here or there so i decided to go ahead and post anyway i promise i will try to get some new ones up soon nothing new really going on hopefully we can fit something fun in this weekend that i can report back with have a good week posted by emily at 8 57 pm no comments saturday february 19 2011 slumber party so thursday night the kids asked to sleep in the living room i was quick on my feet and told them we would do it on saturday night that stopped any objections and got them into bed peacefully i momentarily forgot my little boys and girls aren t 3 anymore and remember things now it wasn t long after they returned from grandma papaw s house peyton asked if we were going to sleep in the living room in two seconds the blankets were drug in along with their pillow pets we went into the basement and did some wrestling throwing jumping and lots of laughing after a premier of the little mermaid a childhood favorite of mine we came upstairs for jammies rob i hauled the trusty mattress up and the kids piled on that was it they haven t moved landon is the first and only one asleep so far it s been a great night posted by emily at 10 02 pm 4 comments tuesday february 15 2011 if i could have one more moment i would give you one more kiss i would tell you how much i love you i would grab you up in my arms and squeeze you until you begged for air isn t that what we all say about the passing time today i didn t feel the way i thought i would feel sunday was the day of total celebration the day we all came together to have a huge party and show the kids just how much we love them i had planned on today being somewhat similar i wanted to make it as special as i could when i woke up i found myself lacking in enthusiasm and excitement of course i masked all of my feelings and put on the biggest smile and woke all of them up with a big happy birthday they popped up and were happy to have another day dedicated to them as i got them settled in with cups of cereal and mickey mouse club house i went to finish getting ready all morning my mind drifted to the moments just before their birth up through their first few months i ended up meandering downstairs and looking through their scrapbooks i was looking for something something that reminds me in the most intense way of just how blessed we are i wanted to find their diapers these diapers aren t just any diapers they are the diapers they wore right after they were born i pulled one out and just held it i remember the day they were born like it just happened i could retell the evening just as though it were moments ago it is forever etched in my mind and heart the day our lives were changed forever this is my mp3 player pictures just don t do it justice i carried the diaper with me all day i took it to work with me and throughout the day i picked it up and just held it i don t know it is weird i wanted to go back in time just for those couple of hours when they were born so i could have those moments back and know what i know now that way i could hold them without fear of losing them i would tell them all the plans i had for them and all the adventures they would have together i would take every second i had to will them to fight instead i look back and see a frightened mommy who was trying to be strong i wasn t pushing them to fight i was preparing myself for loss instead of being their rock i was protecting myself today did not feel the way i had hoped it would feel no it was full of memories and moments i will never get back i put on a happy face and made the evening fun for the kids but inside i wanted to go back in time and relive every moment i could i wish i could rattle off all the funny things they have done over the past 4 years there are so many moments i wish i could relive i don t want to do it all over again the good lord knows i definitely don t want anymore kids but i have this panic of forgetting you know how over time the emotion fades and the memories we once treasured are gone that is what i fear this day was bitter sweet i can t tell you how excited i am to go places and watch the kids take in the world as they see it at the same time i realize time is passing so quickly it is like watching the sunset and seeing the very last ray fall below the horizon the days of diapers and cribs and bibs are gone the last few glimpses of my little babies are quickly fading i am scared to blink for fear that they will be gone and i will have missed it today was a good day it was a day of celebration and reminiscing i embraced it fully and am so glad i have this blog to remind me of just how blessed i am posted by emily at 8 41 pm 2 comments sunday february 13 2011 sweets treats candy galore a tasty celebration as ethan peyton landon jenna sydney turn 4 today was party day the countdown was over anticipation was at its max they have been waiting for this day for at least a month we went to church this morning and rushed home to start decorating thankfully my sister and brother in law came by early to help decorate nikki was a lifesaver too she locked herself in a room and wrapped presents while i finished setting up the cake stuff seriously we would have been in trouble if we hadn t had help thank you my aunt jody and i made the cake balls they were lions tigers frogs butterflies and flowers they were a huge hit thanks jody for all the hard work you put in to help with those once people started to arrive things got busy we sang happy birthday and after cake and ice cream the kids scattered outside the lord decided to give us a birthday present too warmer sunny weather you can t ask for anything better when you have as many people as we had in our house the doors were open and everyone could meander about we quickly transitioned to the presents i felt bad rushing through them but people weren t supposed to bring gifts we had so many we had to keep it moving to get through them all we love all of our friends and family they spoil the kids rotten sydney was so excited for the princess dress up stuff she got the girl so so animated landon is more subdued he wanted to open the cards and look at everything peyton was thrilled to get a cape pirate hat and sword from grandma shannon and papaw tony he has wanted one since before christmas he didn t take it off the entire night jenna had to put everything on that she opened she had her cape hat and ball glove on my fingers are raw from ripping boxes and twisting wires to get things out it was an awesome day oh yeah they also got a trampoline from grandma esther papaw bob aunt mel uncle shawn see what i mean about being spoiled we got the girls each a barbie and the boys a remote control car we also got them each a ball mitt t bat and balls they can t wait to get outside and start practicing what a great day the only thing that could have made it better was if papaw bob could have been here to celebrate with us he is a huge part of the kids lives and they missed him next year we will make sure to plan the party on a saturday to everyone who came and celebrated this great day with us thank you we love you all posted by emily at 9 27 pm 2 comments older posts home subscribe to posts atom background home our journey to
