FINALLY AN UPDATE!

That is if I can get a breather...
(As I am typing-Ava is arguing with Kayla-blaming Kayla I should say-that Kayla ate all the cookies)...hang on I must correct this....

OK-Ava asked forgiveness for blaming and being rude...

All is well.

I have to say-life has been very busy!! Is there never a moment when I don't hear the word,
"mommy". I love that word-yes-but its been said so much lately. Isabel is now getting to the age where she is a part of "the action". Life is full!!!

For the past few weeks we have had dentist appts., doctors appts., illnesses, no school due to illness...etc.

This past week I went off of my Anti-Depressant medication. It has been a walk of faith for me. I felt like the Lord was opening a door for me to stop. I am excited to see more of how the Lord is going to work! I have been doing well with this so far. I have had much encouragement. So please if you think of me to be praying that I can go without these meds.! Thank you!
If you would like to read more about why I was on these meds, click here. It's amazing how much I have learned about depression and meds. as a Christian-how to look at it from a biblical perspective. God is so kind!

Now as for the children-yes the children...

Here are some pictures of what we have been doing lately...








This is Ava holding tubes of Kayla's blood at one of our doctors appts.
The nurse let her hold them after Kayla had her blood drawn. Ava was not grossed out the least little bit. She wanted to see up close and even hold the blood!
Hmm...I think she may be the nurse of the family!! :)

Girls just want to have good fun!

Ava and Isabel's first dentist visit...

My Aunt Dorothy gave Isabel these dress-ups.

(Isabel is getting so big!)

The boys wanted to have a camp out in the back yard. They did! Stefan told them that he bet they would come inside the house before morning. Yup they sure did!!
My pictures weren't very good-but I think they show enough...
