I'm Back!




Okay, after receiving a whole lot of flack from everyone, I am finally updating my blog a little. Not a lot has changed with my family but here is an update. (To the left are my boys with their cousin James).





Jesse James (above) was born on March 13th 2008. So he will be turning one in just a few days. I can't believe it. Time just flys! He has been an awesome addition to our family. He is such a good baby. He rarely cries and just doesn't make much noise. His little personality is coming out more each day. He has 6 teeth already. He still does not crawl or walk. He gets from A to B by doing his army crawl. We have tried and tried but he just has no interest in either. Landen loves being a big brother and is a great helper for his mom.
Landen started Kindergarten in August of 2008. He says he doesn't like school, yet he is always talking about it and telling me all the fun things he does. So I think he is trying to fool me.

In October of 2008, Landen was diagnosed as being bi-polar with ADHD. We have found him a great psychiatrist that has been working with him and monitoring his daily medications. Landen is now taking 2 medications twice per day. He never lets me forget to give them to him either. Since beginning the meds Landen has improved greatly. Poor little guy was dealing with a lot and is now a much happier kid.

We have just signed Landen up for Flag Football. His season runs from March 28th to May 16th (I think) with games on Saturdays. Garrett has spent a lot of time with Landen showing him how to play. Landen has developed a great arm and an amazing spiral. Landen can't wait for football to start.

Garrett and I had our second anniversary in October of 2008. Life is good!
