a pinch to grow an inch

okay, okay...now the voices in my head can stop telling me to update my blog :-) i'm slowing adjusting to going back to regular schedule. owen went back to school the first week of the year and nick went back to work this last week. which ended up a weird week with all the snow days and didn't really feel normal. right now a normal week should go like this....nick leaves monday thru friday around 5am, i have to get all 3 kids dressed and fed by 8am to get liv on the bus, noah to his sitters and owen to school downtown but now the new twist is that 2 days a week owen has to gets labs done by 9:30am at the kidney center. so last week it didn't really run like it should with the snow so we will see how this week goes. owen is doing amazing.....as always. he has even grown a whole INCH since the surgery!!!! he is probably a good 2 1/2-3 inches taller than noah.....yay owen!!! he really is such a trooper, when we go out he only needs to wear is mask when around big crowds and we were just running in somewhere real quick that wasn't crowded and when we got back to the car he said "mom you didn't put my mask on"....there was a time when he would fight me to put that thing on. right now our biggest struggle with him is potty training or even more just him letting us know when he needs his diaper changed. when he goes in his diaper it causes awful diaper rash because of his immune suppression. he won't tell us when we needs his diaper changed and because of his booty problems he goes quite often. :-/ it's a cycle i'm having a very hard time finding a way out of. but on a very good and strange twist in the story Noah went pee pee and poo poo on the potty tonite :-) if i can't get one i'll get the other...lol...i only laugh so i don't cry.

kids playing in the snow....noah's first time. he loved it until it was all over his face.
owen's first day back to school. his friends were so happy to see him.





some of our x-mas pictures i should have posted weeks ago

a silly thing that owen said....me:owen i'll be right back just lay there, don't get out of bed....i come back in his room to find him out of bed.......me:owen what did i say owen:don't get out of bed me:so when are you going to start listening to me? owen:hmmm...maybe tomorrow night. :-) gotta love his honesty.

  1. I don't know how you do it all but you seem to do it all with so much ease. Noah is so happy now, I think he knows you all are in a good place now so he can sit back and enjoy life!
