Give Her A Brake

Alexis Lynn is our little improviser. Once she gets her mind set on doing something, it's as good as done. She's been busy working on constructing a "Parking Lot" for all of her road racers that have lots of SPEED! If you see her working on a parking lot near you..... Give Her A Brake!

I'm Going To Canada On A Bus

We've all been suffering from a sinus infection for the past twelve days. So, I take the girls to the doctor on the 1st day symptoms appear; runny/stuffy noses, fever, sore throat and ear pain. The doc sees the girls for one second and says, "I think they have a virus that will have to work itself out. I would continue to use over-the-counter medications to relieve the stuffiness and pain." One the fifth day, mind you it's Friday, we all still have stuffy noses and the whole nine yards mentioned above along with GREEN TREASURES! After making a call to the docs office they finally agree to call in a RX to help relieve the cough/congestion after 1st asking if I wanted to bring the girls back into the office! WHAT? And pay another $15 copay???? Needless to say, we were back in the docs office the following Monday and the girls now had an infection that required antibiotics. Since our sickness appeared to be lasting more than seven days and the girls were now on antibiotics, I made an appointment to see my PCP, paid another copay and pick up a prescription from the pharmacy for myself. OH, did I mention Craig, too, had a doctors appointment. We are copaid and coinsurance out! That's why I'm taking the bus to Canada, to get our meds a whole lot cheaper.

Copay/Coinsurance For 1 Week

Office Visits $393
RX's $188

She's Waiting For Us

Blu
(1989 - 2007)


They say memories are precious and I guess that is true,
I never wanted memories, I only wanted you
I love you my dear one with all me heart,
It makes me sad that we are apart
So by St. Peter's heavenly gate,
Some day I will meet you there,
So for me patiently wait.
Hugs and Kisses

" Gurgling, Grunting & Giggling "

Londyn Paige's Third & Fourth Month


The past few months have been amazing! We've changed dozens of diapers, given hundreds of feedings, answered countless cries, and dried even more tears...and the journey is only beginning. Londyn is now 4 months old and weighs 15 lbs. She now tries to sit up, reaches for objects and rolls from her stomach to her back. She's more lively than ever. She's becoming more aware of what we are SAYING as she notices the tone of our voice and the stress we put on particular words like, NO! We love engaging in conversations with her as she babbles right back, we call them early chats. Londyn loves to look at herself in the mirror as she smiles from ear to ear. She brings her hands together and reaches for nearby objects, stretches out her legs and kicks forcefully and occasionally brings her "BIG TOE" to her mouth for a quick nibble. She definitely notices when we are no longer in view as she cries to bring us back in sight. Alexis and Londyn have an enormous bond of sisterly love. Londyn keeps her eyes glued to "Big Sister" most of the time.
