<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It's been about 4 months since I have blogged.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">My oldest guy can read...legitimately read. He is 4.5 and for him reading makes complete sense. He enjoys learning and doing flash cards and we have been practicing through readers every day. He loves to read so this is a real gift for him. As a side note: I TAUGHT A CHILD TO READ! (well the Lord did, plus help from my MIL, my grandmother and just his general aptitude) - but still many an intentional hour was spent and it might be the most rewarding thing I have ever done. Seeing the excitement on his face and learning a lot of the rules with him...these moments and memories I CAN take with me. It was worth it! Next up - math.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Mike and I got Landry as our 3rd anniversary gift..."go big or go home", so Great Dane it was. She was our front runner to kids...a little taste of reducing our selfishness. Over the years, she ate through the carpet, ate a bed spread, ate our dinners off the counter top (more times then I would like to count), she welcomed three boys into her life, she loved them with gentleness and protected them with her sheer girth, she walked faithfully with Mike on many a morning, she kept Mike company in his office day in and day out. She was a part of our family...although it was "touch and go" in the love arena during some of the longer tiny people rearing days, but the reality is we loved her well and she loved us. She was a wonderful first dog and a great companion to all five of us.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We all said good bye to puppy last Friday. The boys were sad, especially Graham. So far, he is ok with the explanation of she just couldn't stay with us anymore - she was too sick and not getting better. I think soon enough we will have to say that she died, even though he knows she is not coming back. We have steered clear of the she "returned to the dust" convo ...so far. I am super weird (no surprise) and don't feel like I should say she is with Jesus, because I just am not certain on the eternity of pets, although I might say something along those lines because it's age appropriate, any who - sorry pet lovers. Feel free to prove me wrong in scripture, please. Sweet Trackers thinks she is at the doctor getting a cast on and not coming back. His only experience at the doc played out in puppy form...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Coop- I knew from the moment I got pregnant with you that you were a Divine gift. You have been loved deeply and easily named our family peacemaker. My guess is that you will fold right in with your brothers without hesitation. You are easy going and flexible (two things I need constant refining for). You are always good for a smile or laugh. You are like a strong tower...sturdy, sturdy, sturdy. When you started standing it was immediate and in the middle of the floor. You have just started walking this week and it won't be long until it is a full run. I can't get over what a sweet baby you are. The Lord has blessed us with you.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We try and make 1st birthday parties <em>easy easy</em>, inviting less people, spending less money and just celebrating one year of life with a new family addition. I struggle with birthday parties in general, because what I really want is to celebrate my child, not to feel stressed by entertaining or spending a ton of money. Anywho, something that stays consistent is we like to do something that our kids really like, regardless of age. You know bounce party for Track, park party for Graham and what Coop really likes is ... to eat and be outside. No better place to do both then Chicken Scratch. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The month of March brought our 1st <strike>broken</strike> fractured bone. Mike was playing with the boys, business as usual, and sliding down the slide at Central Market with them. I was hanging with Mr. Cooper - ha, and I heard a scream that I knew was pain. Tracks tiny Nike got stuck between the slide and Mike's chunky butt thigh (jk jk - about the chunky part). Their bodies kept going, but his little foot stayed static. Yes - I had been previously warned about sliding with toddlers - thank you Hobbs and YES I felt like a giant dummy when "it" happened to me. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Trackers is the toughest of all of us...we knew it was bad when we couldn't get him to stop crying. He wouldn't put weight on it AT ALL. We thought maybe just a bad sprain and after nap time he would have forgotten about it and hobble around. Nap time came and went and no standing, no crawling, no moving. This is my child that runs everywhere. Needless to say, I was heart broken and obsessed with trying to "fix it". AKA...not trust anyone and wait it out to see if his body would heal itself or if a miracle would rain down on us or if my lame essential oil training would just mend it right on up.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">He learned to cope and crawl in a few days, but I just knew something wasn't right. We took him to see Dr. Chartrand who did an x-ray and saw NOTHING....that's right, NOTHING. I got him home and was set on carrying the man everywhere until he thought he could walk when the phone rang and the doc said he thought he missed a tiny spiral toddlers fracture. The course of treatment was a long leg cast...what the what? My toddler needs a cast. This was just about enough to put me over the edge...I mean what is wrong with me? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I agonized for a few days...AKA...waited to see if that miracle healing was coming. I debated a 2nd opinion, I asked countless friends, I talked to my midwife, I got an opinion from a large animal vet (thanks Dr. Harper for ALWAYS entertaining me), I researched pediatric orthopedists, I googled, I read, I prayed, I talked Mikes face off about it, and watched Tracks every move and pitied the dog out of his little soul (aka rocked him for hours whilst reading George and The Puppies over and over). </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">In the end, Mike and I decided to get a cast from Chartrand...knowing he would let me call/ text him if I was concerned at any point and I knew I could get in and out and hold Tiny Trackers the whole time (most important to me). We also just felt comfortable in his house/ office/ care. There are many reasons I chose Chartrand to care for my kids...and in the end what I like most is that I know he likes/ loves my family and kids. He critically thought about my child and his care...he consulted someone else and called to change his diagnosis...now that's impressive. He answered my asinine questions about "what would you do if it was your son?" for the 900th time. He let me WAIT until I was ready. He was likely thinking "for the love of all that is, woman...it is JUST a cast", but you would never know that.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Shortly after Track got his cast one of my closest girlfriends called to say her 3 year old broke his arm. She took him in, got him casted and ta da in a matter of a few hours had him whipped up - where it took me a week - that is like 167 hours faster than me at decision making. Can you tell I am jealous? She trusts the system and to top it off her house is ALWAYS clean. There are times I think...I wish I was more like Jenn Self. Then I think...I am supposed to be wishing I was more like Jesus...well Jenn is like Jesus, so its kind of the same thing.</span></div>

He only complained at night when he was tired of dragging the cast around or when he couldn't keep up with his friends. He taught me that when you need help, humbly ask someone that loves you. He taught me not to worry about what other people think about my crawling two year old. I don't need to justify. He took my creativity to a new level...life went on. We didn't watch TV for three weeks and we didn't not do the things we normally do. We just went slower and everyone pitched in to help.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I have seen tenacity manifested in my 2 year old child recently and willingness to change in my 4 year old.

I am frequently tempted to cancel this or cancel that for the sake/ comfort of my kids or myself. I know better now...I have missed the chance to say good bye in person and have opted out of celebrating milestones with friends and family...no longer will I be that person...im changing my ways. Demonstrated by stepping out 3 days after a baby came out of my body people. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I'm super serious about this. I would like nothing more than to be able to ride around town with all of my kids in tow. Imagine with me....1 adult seat (b/c Mike is a joy squasher), another seat behind me for G, a car seat for T and a bike trailer (with two seats ) for C and any future babe. I know you are probably thinking its a safety issue, but I could totally do this - I'm in shape (sort of - well I'm not pregnant right now, so I'm in a good shape - kind of). Any who - We could wear back packs and go to the store or to the library. We could bike to friends houses around town. The freedom would really be limitless. After much consideration and research we had to rule this out (for now) - bc it would cost thousands (like $5K), so we decided on the poor mans option...SCOOTERS!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Our family has been in the dumps with a mild sickness since Christmas. We decided to lay out of church one more Sunday to make sure we don't start the germ fest all over again. We are all tired of feeling crummy and would like to re-enter society. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="color: #990000;">Side Note: I would be the worst person in life to have a chronically ill person over here.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We also like to make Sunday's our <span style="color: #990000;">"Sabbath Adventure Day".</span> Today we decided to take the crew to bowl at 9:30am. As you might assume we had the whole place to ourselves. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Ok - so all and all I think we would give our adventure a <span style="color: #990000;">"B-".</span> It was a new experience for the boys and that was fun, but it was also one will <span style="color: #990000;">WILL NOT</span> repeat any time soon.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We went to the <span style="color: #990000;">Main Event in Plano</span> and if you care about what your toddlers eyes are exposed to - then this is not your place. Music videos blaring and showing on all jumbo screens where the pins are <span style="color: #990000;">(at 10am - ridiculous).</span> Other screens showing movies with fight scenes, guns and monsters. On the first riding game it finished with two half dressed women cartoons doing a sexy dance holding up what place you got. <span style="color: #990000;">REALLY?</span> After writing this... I thought for a brief moment, "maybe it's just me being a prude - that place isn't geared for toddlers", but then they generously offer toddler shoes, bumper lanes, and ramps....so...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">In <span style="color: #990000;">January of 2013 </span>I made a resolution to read at least 12 books throughout the year. This year I actually wrote them down and finished the year at 15. I would say that is a goal well attained with two little boys and adding a new baby boy in March. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">3. Parenting with Love and Logic, Foster Cline and Jim Fay<span style="color: #990000;"> (Uh - I will likely catch flack for this, but I DID NOT like this book...Legalism ALERT and I know it is popular and may work, but I found it oppressive - at best)</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">7. The Christian Homeschool, Gregg Harris <span style="color: #990000;">(If you have never thought about homeschooling, this book will put you over the edge...it's old, but everything with education that's good is old)</span></span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">12. Pilgrims Progress, John Bunyan <span style="color: #990000;">(as my husband would say, Time Piece - enough said)</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">13. Generous Justice, Timothy Keller<span style="color: #990000;"> (ugh - I should like this more...I would have more crowns in heaven if I liked this more - Justice for the poor plus Calvinism - form your own opinion here)</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">14. Food Ninja, Matt Stone - Teach your kids to eat like ninjas <span style="color: #990000;">(GOOD)</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So if I had to pick one it would be #5. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Read it! It will open your eyes to a<span style="color: #990000;"> whole new scary world</span> you didn't even know was after your kids.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We had Grahams <span style="color: #990000;">4th</span> birthday party here at the house this past weekend and it was a <span style="color: #990000;">major success...</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We wanted to have a <strike>old school</strike> <span style="color: #990000;">classic</span> party with a lot of outdoor options. We had 35 adults (4 pregnant ladies) and 16 kids - it was a sight to see for my out of town family. Mike drew a race track in the backyard for the kids to drive their bikes/ trikes on and we have a swing set, some various "plastics" and chalk. The kids stayed outside 100% of them time and played <span style="color: #990000;">HARD</span> all over the back yard.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I felt really blessed to have a house on a great lot that everyone felt comfortable in. It was the best party I have ever thrown and it was almost <span style="color: #990000;">overwhelming</span> to have so many dear friends and family stop their weekend to love my family and celebrate Graham. I am so thankful to have friends and family so near and it isn't even November<span style="color: #990000;"> (you know Thanksgiving...Thankful...Thankfulness).</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> I have wanted to take the boys to <span style="color: #990000;">Fossil Rim</span> in Glen Rose for quite some time.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Like any <span style="color: #990000;">responsible mama</span> I took the time to schedule this man a haircut before his 2nd birthday. This is no easy task, as I have two other little dudes to care for. I made all the arrangements and prepared my bribes (kels and an iPad) and off the the club we went. My boys are chic and apparently Mike feels strongly about getting their hair cut with scissors as opposed to shears??? Thankfully, we have an<span style="color: #990000;"> upscale salon</span> at the club (health club not unce unce unce club) where I work. I mean what a better setting for a child's haircut than an upscale salon, right?</span></div>
