Lets see where do I even start?
Oh maybe the life changing event of our house burning down? Well there isn't really much to say other than I received a phone call while I was at Tommys parents house and he was at school, letting me know that our house was gone. Upon arriving, it was a mess.. Basically we were told it was an electrical fire; the electrical cord grounded out that went to the fridge.
We have been recovering from that. We are very thankful for everyone who has helped even if it was just a little. We couldn't have done it without them.
A week and half later everything is starting to settle out, which I will be so glad to get back to regular routine things, not that children are that regular or routine, so heck what am I saying?
Since we had another house, we moved into here, and practically remodeled it. We got new carpet, new doors, a new window (we still need 2 more), tiled the dining room, painted the boys' room. The house is smaller, but that should make it easier to clean.
We are handling very well. I once read that when things go wrong, everyone always looks at the negatives in the situation and never the positives. I have tried to look at the positives in this and not dwell on the negatives, if you let the negatives tear you down, then my boys will see us sad, and they will be sad. Instead of thinking of what I lost, and cant replace, I think of what I do have. We were not home and we are all safe, that is a very good thing. I DID have my laptop and my camera. Sure I lost many photos and prints, but I do have lots of photos. Sure I don't have any equipment but I still have the most important part. I can sit here all day and say all the things that I lost, but why? Why, let it bother me greatly, instead try to think forward and to the future.
Anyway enough of my mambo jumbo stuff that is being imprinted in me the more I go to school. Ryan and Isaac are doing really well. They love their room, its all decorated for them, and they have super cute beds, we bought them new bedding, so they like that. Ryan has adjusted from moving to the new school. I am extremely nervous for Isaac to go, he starts tomorrow hopefully that goes well.
Kahleb is growing so much; taking steps more often, and getting braver. I think since we got the carpet, that it has helped tremendously, since when he does fall it doesn't hurt. I love his smile and happiness, always so smiley. I also love watching him throw a little tantrum, its to cute, of course we just ignore it. This past week he has had a cold so he hasn't felt totally himself. Other than that everything is going great with my chunker.
The newest baby is doing well too. We had our level 2 ultrasound on Tuesday. He was measuring on the smaller side of the average for his age almost 15 ounces. The doctor did mention however that the placenta was really close to the cervix, although in technical terms in really means placenta previa, he did appear to have high hopes that it will move up by 28wks, if not than that could mean that I would have to have a c-section.. Which is a terrifying thought to me! On a good note he has been quite active this past week, which I always love feeling their movements.
Tommy and I are doing great! I am starting to get a cold, which just really sucks. And Tommy is getting over one. But all in all things are good for both of us, just been busy going to school full time.
.....Until Next Time....
