New Life

So I guess we need to let everyone know what is going on with our family.

June was a hard month, we start it off with a speech therapist telling me that because Zarona has not made much progress at all with her speech since she got tubes in Feb that we need to get her looked at by a neurologist to rule out a neurological disorder DAS (Developmental Apraxia of Speech), we have yet to make an appointment for that yet, but we will shortly. 

Brandon lost his job at the end of June, yes it as for something stupid  yes he filled unemployment, yes we are doing good so far for July, We will wait and see what happens.

We still are hoping to make it to Utah this year. 
now that it is July we are hoping for some good things.

Joshua Turns 4

Yes, Joshua turns 4 and to celebrate he chose to mark what is his. The rest of the family is doing great. All is well with me, except for dish pan hands. Working in the kitchen and the dish room sucks but wow I get a free lunch so not all bad. Oh yea Joshua went Pee in the cats water bowl.  :) I think that was funny but Danielle does not think so. I say I am right. T.T.F.N.

Stitches :)

Joshua is a wonderful little guy who likes to get into a lot of things, even the knifes.

Last night well cooking dinner, Joshua some how came across  Brandons ceramic knife.

Danielle was in the kitchen washing potatoes for dinner and Brandon was in the living room with the kids, nothing out of order, then all of a sudden Joshua starts screaming, Danielle looks to see what is wrong and here comes Zarona with the knife.
Danielle asks Brandon if Joshua has a cut, Brandon says yes, Danielle then asks him to please take care of it. Brandon then goes to the bathroom to get a band aid, Joshua comes into the kitchen still screaming. Danielle looks at his hand then takes him to the sink for a cold water rinse of the hand for a closer look. 1 Band aid is not going to cover this cut. so Brandon got some gauze out of the first aid kit, Danielle put prusser on the cut with no susses in stopping the bleeding. Brandon got more gaze out. Danielle put new gauze on hand then wrapped it. Brandon took Joshua to the E.R and Joshua got 2 stitches :)
What a fun dinner time. Brandon and Joshua ate at McDonalds on the way home. Happy Meals make everything better :)

Zarona Update

Here is an update on Zarona.

We went up to OSHU Monday Feb 25th at o dark 30
for her to get tubes in her ears. The surgery went very well,
she woke up just fine and was doing great. We got home
and she took a nap, we have to put drops in her ears for 3 days.
there was a little fluid in her ears and the Doc said that it was very
thick fluid, right now she is back to her normal self. She has an
hearing apt in the middle of March, we will update you then on how
she is doing. T.T.F.N

Pinewood Derby

Last night was Zacharia s first pinewood derby race, he did not do so bad. He showed good sportsman ship at the event but ran his mouth a lot on the way home. (we have to work on that) enjoy the pictures.

Jacob

Jacob is a fun loving boy with a giant heart. His Teacher always tells me how wonderful a kid he is. there is 2 boys in his class who have really bad adhd and Jacob is there only friend. Jacob says that he loves to play with those 2 boys because they are fun and remind him of Zacharia.

Jacob loves school and loves helping everyone with counting.

The other day Danielle got the boys up for school, Jacob walks out in his church clothes and says ok I ready, Dainelle looked at him and said, is that what your going to wear to school? He then looked down and said no, church, we have school today? Danielle said yes you have school today. Jacob said oh ok, then went back to his room and got ready for school.

Jacobs favorite color is Red, Food is all good, thing to do is play outside, about school is everything. Jacob hates cleaning up anything that we ask him to but wont mind helping his brother :)
