Look MOM !!!

Today when we finally got to the eye doctors and I had gathered myself together

got the kids loaded in the stroller and then got Kaidin out of the car he said… LOOK MOM…

so I looked over to him pointing at his shoes… “It’s my old fashion look, you like it?”.

WHY yes Kaidin, I LOVE it!

Ahhh just another day in the life…

BODE vs. the kitchen chair

As if yesterday wasn’t bad enough this morning while I was changing all of the kids to get ready to go to the eye doctor for our follow up for the big “event” yesterday Miya decided to pull on one of our “solid wood” high back dinning room chairs from behind. The only problem was that Bode was in back of the chair watching her do it and it landed smack dab on his forehead leaving this huge golf ball (this picture was a few hours after) size knot of his head. After I burst into tears and pulled myself together the rest of the day was a good day. While I counted my blessing and reminded myself that there were going to be many of these events in my future….

A little bruised smiling face

Today was not a fun day… The kids were all playing and I was in the babies room making beds, picking up toys , ect. Bode & Miya were helping make messes while I cleaned. I was making the beds when it got very quiet over in one of the corners. I looked over to see Bode reaching under one of the dressers that sits up a couple inches on peg legs doing what I assumed was reaching for a toy that rolled under the dresser. I continued to finish making the beds and then I looked back at them again and saw that Bode had pulled the extension cord which has all the baby monitors plugged into it OUT FROM WAY UNDER the dresser (I didn’t even know he could reach that far). When he dropped his toy and looked under he must have seen it and went for it. Within seconds I went to get it from him but it was too late. I watched him bite down on the cord and he let out a horrible scream that will forever be in my mind. I grabbed the cord and it was super wet from his teething drool. He cried and cried but seemed ok. I shoved the cord back under without looking at it just because I wanted to take care of Bode. After a long while he stopped crying. It was the saddest cry. All seemed ok and we ate lunch. At lunch I noticed his eyelids starting to turn black & blue. I called his pediatrician that said we needed to bring him in. I took him in and two doctors evaluated him and sent us to the ER for more test. My poor little man! I have to say he was happy as could be, smiling away and saying “HI” to everyone. The ER was very nice, took us right away but the ER doctor confessed that they only see about 4 patients a year with this situation (YEP! That would be my family). So he had to call the Burn Center and Poison Control to see what to do with little Bode to make sure all was ok. After an exam they did find the entry and exit spots… they did an EKG and his little heart is great. We saw the pediatric eye doctor to make sure all is well and his eyes are perfect! Besides being a very scary day and the “bruising marks” on little Bode we are all OK. Thank God.

Here are some pictures and as you can see he was super happy as always…

I love you little man!

Hip Hop ~ Holla

Kaidin is loving his Hip Hop class...

These boys are adorable.

I can't wait to see them perform in June.

Grandma I wonder where you keep your wings???

Grandma I wonder where you keep your wings.

Are they hung in your closet with the rest of your things?

Do you put them away and just use them at night

or give them to someone to polish up bright.

I know you have wings, for this must be true,

'cause God always gives them to Angels just like you.

We love you Grandma...

Love, Kaidin, Miya & Bode

Hip Hop = LOVE

My lil man Kaidin started his Hip Hop class tonight and OMG I am so in LOVE!

He is just the cutest thing ever! It is all boys and the best thing you have ever seen.

He went right in (ran right in actually), didn’t even look back to see if

I was in the building and started his routine in line-up...

The class started 3 weeks ago and so the other boys are already into the routine for the performance at the end of June, Kaidin jumped right in and did so good

and stayed up with the other boys as best as possible.

What a little stud. He was so focused and LOVED every minute of it!

I was so proud of him and am so proud of the little man he is becoming!

Kaidin's School Valentines

Today Kaidin had school and he was so excited for the Valentines “Party”.

Here are his teachers, he loves them all. We are very lucky.

This is Kaidin's "girl friend" Ashley some of you have heard him talk about.

Too cute how he talks about her and holds her on a pedestal.

She is as cute as could be!
