Our kids as of late......

 David recently started patch therapy on his left eye. His right eye is far weaker than his left eye, so much that his brain has always known so and has just programmed itself to allow the left eye to do all the work. The hope is the patch will force his brain to make the right eye focus and work since the better left eye is covered and out of the picture so to speak. He wears his patch a minimum of 5 days a week at a minimum of 2 hours a day and a maximum of 5 hours a day. He has done amazing with it. He doesn't give us any trouble at all. We will continue with follow ups every 3 months and hopefully between his glasses and the patch, we can get him some real improvement.
 Makayla finally got her braces off!!! This was phase two for her, so she is done for life!!! She is just doing some retainer maintenance now and that is it. She has a beautiful amazing smile!

She also just started her first real job!!!  She is working at Wonderland Amusement Park. Yes, she worked a few weeks last summer at a Mother's Day Out with me but she did this interview, paperwork, training, the whole nine yards. Y'all, our kid is all grown up.



 James Henry got braces on!!! He got his put on over Spring Break. This is phase one for him and he only has them on the top teeth. He had absolutely no issues at all. Dr. Moore had to pull one baby  tooth that day so the tooth fairy left $5.00 for the trauma of a dentist pulling your tooth, although laughing gas tends to leave out all trauma.
 Christopher is doing great, still doing his thing at the zoo! He has had no medical procedures, ha! So, this is him last weekend holding a Madagascar Hissing CockRoach!

Our little Buddy

 We just got a sweet new addition to our crazy crew. His name is buddy and of course he is a miniature schnauzer. His color on paper is liver but he is a dark chocolate brown.
 He is already spoiled rotten and fitting in well with the rest of the gang. David may love him a little too much sometimes.
 He's a keeper for sure. He has a feisty personality and loves to talk and talk back. He thinks his bark is very serious.

 We just love our little guy!!

Family Fun as of late

Fun happenings around here as of lately....

James and I along with our friend Chip went to the David Crowder concert. It was phenomenal!!! 
 We took David and Addi to see Disney Live! They had so much fun that we had a blast.





 I took the kids to the circus...

 The boys rode an elephant! It took David some convincing but once he got started he was game!





 Circus food = dynamite!


 The last two weekends have been so beautiful that we have actually been able to get out to the parks and enjoy the outdoors!

 David and James Henry have been putting their Christmas presents to good use.




 This guy.....
 this is what ER visits are made out of......
