Changes

Well hello again! It has been a while since I last wrote. I'm finding it is getting harder to find the time to write. Before I start telling about all of the changes going on right now I want to wish my dad a happy birthday. Today was his B-day, and this weekend we were hoping he could come over for cake and ice cream. Plus the super bowl is on too :o) But now it is supposed to snow, and snow a lot!! Our area is supposed to get any where from 12-30 inches of snow! I don't think I've seen 30 inches of snow since I was a kid during a blizzard. I don't really remember what year the blizzard was though, maybe 1994?

But anyway... there are a lot of changes happening. My brother and his family has come to stay with us for a short time. They got a house a few houses down from ours that they are moving into next weekend. It's a great house too, 3 bedrooms, walk in closets, finished basement. It is nice! I will be happy once they move into their own place. It has been sooo hectic with 6 kids under one roof. I am starting to get sick of breaking up fights between the two youngest, and having my niece teaching my boys bad things. Ugh!! One more long week lol.

We also visited Samantha for a short period of time over the weekend. Brad got off of work early so we drove over to see her, and gave her a valentines day gift. I had bough her a cute webkinz that came in a valentines day bag. She really loved it. Brad also asked if she could tell her mom to call us. Shockingly Sam's mom called! The phone conversation went well, and we may possibly be getting joint custody of Samantha now. I am hoping that is the case. I won't believe any of it until it happens though.

Bradley has his glasses now. He seems to be doing really well with them. He is such a cutie pie. Today Bradley had an accident due to his cousin April. April decided she would teach her little cousins to jump on their beds. Then she pushed Bradley and he fell and hit his nose on the windows ledge! Now my poor boy has a purple nose, and beginning to have black eyes. I am really angry with April. She has been being so bad. Unfortunately I am having to give Bradley a break from his glasses until his little nose heals.

Parker had his CT scan to check if he had fluid on his brain again. Thankfully it came out fine. Parker will be visiting a behavior specialist to make sure he isn't autistic. I'm not thinking he is, and if he is it's a slight case. Parker is so smart at times, and such a sweet heart. He has forgotten things like how to write his name, and how to use the bathroom. One day Parker just decided he was going to stop using the potty. Now he is doing good again, and isn't having many accidents. We will see what the Dr. says.

Dustin is very frustrated lately. He is my little love bug, and is used to not having to compete with another baby. With his cousin staying with us he is really acting out. AJ is 4 months younger than Dustin who is 23 months old now. AJ and Dustin fight like cats and dogs. It is funny at times to watch them interact, but they really do not get along at times. Dustin is always running to me crying and points to AJ and tells me "bad boy". My poor boy! Sharing is really hard for him at his age, but he is doing pretty well. But this length of time he has had to give up all his toys to his cousins is really hard on him. I am sure he will be happy when they move into their own home, and he gets to visit them, and not see them every minute of every day!

Well goodbye for now, I will update more when I know more.
