Yet something else!

Life is pretty crazy around our house most days. With six people living in one house I don't know how to keep it sane.
Today was just another testament to how great the six of work together. Cliff and I got home from working at the church around 1:30 today and Isaac had been fussy so getting him to take a nap was our first priority. I started rocking him and he was burning up. Fever of 102.5. Cliff got him some medicine and called the doctor while I tried to sooth our littlest blessing.
The boys got off the bus and came in quieter than ever because Cliff had met them to tell them Iz (our family name for Isaac) was sick.
Once at the doctors office he seemed to be feeling better---always happens that way! Doctor looked him over and the last place he looked was his ears. ANOTHER EAR INFECTION! AAAAHHHH!!! This is starting to drive me crazy. This is Iz's fifth or sixth ear infection since he was born.
Another round of antibotics and lots of prayer. Prayers have helped before and I fully trust God that He will take care of him this time.
The ear, nose and throat doctor will be contacting us soon about tubes.
It is hard to see any of my children in pain, but something about a baby in pain is almost unbearable.
Please pray for Isaac and the rest of the family as we have to make decisions about his health.

Arthur got his first 100% on his spelling test today!!! We are very proud of him!

I am moving!!

UNBELIEVABLE DAY!!!!

I found a frog in the house today. Those of you who know me well are probably surprised that I am still living in the house. Isaac and I trapped it and then did the girl thing and called Cliff to come get it out of the house. I told him that if it would not have been removed I would have just burned down the house.


Noah should not have put frogs on the ark!!

Isaac keep getting mad because the butterflies would fly off when he finally saw them.

Something New

God gives us new things all the time.
Do we take the time to appreciate what He shows us everyday?
Our family has experienced so many things this past summer and even this past year that will forever change all of our lives.
On Novemeber 9 God blessed us with Isaac. He was born the fourth boy to our family. He was a blessing from God. All things went well until delivery and the doctor said the cord was wrapped around his neck twice. God has blessed Isaac, he has no affects from this ordeal.
This summer as a family we worked camps together, we took a vacation to Branson, we moved, and hit many milestones, especially Cliff he turned 32.
This blog is something new that I will be updating as often as possible. I am excited to not be working outside the home this schoolyear. Being at home when the boys get off the bus is one of the greatest joys I have everyday. Seeing Isaac wake up and look around for me and saying my name is something that will always be a highlight.
I hope you will enjoy these blogs about our family.
