Tired from a long day of exploring.... So full of happyness. this is why i get up everday. to see my two smiling lil kiddos full of unconditional love. i love you lil ones...

Crazy beautiful little Bella.
I think miss Bellas favorite part of our trip was the fishys at the aqarium. in the pic where her nose is all curled up is her new face she has been doing. pretty hilarious...
We are going to be in trouble with this little girl. She is so pretty...She did pretty good those two days we were all over Seattle....
Not only is Benihanas my fav restaurant but Maddy loves it too. He loves wearing the chef hat of course and all the skills the chef has.
Oh Jake how time has changed. I am so thankful you got to come and visit me. I would have been super bummed if you didnt get a chance to see how beautiful this island is. So thanks. I miss you and I can't wait to see you sometime hopefully in the next couple months....
Cherie my love and I. Thanks again girl for going with me and being a huge help with the kiddos. I would have been a huge mess without you. plus it was super fun having you there with us. I am glad I got to show you around Seattle..........


Family Visits.....OH how I love them... My parents came up to visit us and to be with us for Maddux's MRI. Which went well and the tests came back negative for a tumor. WOOT WOOT!!!! I am so thrilled. There are still some other issues they are trying to resolve but the worst part is over. So yay. We couldn't be happier. It was so nice to have them be there for me. I think they saw how i struggle alone without my hubby. But it was great getting to spend some time with them. Right after they headed home my brother and his roommate Jared came to visit. They flew into Seattle and Cherie (my friend) and I went to meet them there. We stayed downtown Seattle which was so much fun. I have lived here for 3 years and have done all the fun stuff there is there but I havent actually stayed in the city. So we had a blast going to the Space needle, and going on a cruise, and just walking and exploring pike place. And of course we had to eat at my fav Beni Hanas. It was so special to me that my brother made it up here finally. I miss you bro!!! Thanks for coming and we hope to have you both back soon.

The last few weeks have flown by for me. I have been so super busy its been kinda nice. It makes the time pass a little faster til I get to see Tilden again. Tilden is doing the best he can. He, of course would rather be home now with his family and helping me out. we miss you like crazy and cant wait to see you walk through those doors. We love you babe hang in there... Right now we are getting ready to start growth hormone therapy for maddux and keep on the thyroid medicine. and in the meantime try and get Tilden home. I need him now more than ever. And our sweet little Bella girl. She is growing way to fast. Almost walking she is on the verge. She is holding on and then letting go in between the couch and coffee table. And oh man is she an eater. My family expierenced it first hand how much this little munchkin eats. and if I can't get it to her fast enough she is growling and hollering at me. IT is pretty cute. I can't get over how adorable all of her faces are. She has so much charachter and spunk. I love my kids and am so blessed to have such a great family here to support me through these tough times. Thanks guys. We miss you all so much......... Now Cylee and Mike you guys need to get your butts up here already....haha

This is just a little recap of what has been going on in our lives lately.
