Myles Milestones

Last month we celebrated our precious Myles first birthday. Myles is such a good baby and this last year with him has been nothing but enjoyable moments. We are so thankful he is a part of our family!

Month of December

Wow, December flew by fast! And now we are approaching a new year. Here are the highlights of December.


Cara had her first dance recital. She learned tap, jazz and ballet. She was pretty nervous about being on stage in front of all those people, but she did so well. We really are proud of her!







There is nothing better than baby bath time!



Do I have cute kiddos or what?!





The kids were fitting in their last chances of being good before Santa came. I woke up to breakfast twice the week of Christmas!



Traditional nativity re-enactment, this year with Tenney cousins.



Myles is a little big to be baby Jesus, but it is his first Christmas and still precious as ever!☺



Gramma Peck made these really cute capes for Logan and Scotty. She even embroidered their names on them. The boys like to wear them inside out so as to "not reveal their super hero identity." Cara likes playing with them just as much and wishes she had a cape just as cool. She is pretty resourceful herself and came up with her own super hero costume. She is Butterfly girl, Logan Spiderboy, and Scotty is Lightning boy! They even have stuffed animal sidekicks: Flutterby, Leapfrog, and Monster. Thankyou Gramma for the wonderful presents!

Trauma Queen!

I am going through a pretty tough week and it's only Wednesday. First, I have been having headaches for the last six months, pretty much everyday. I have seen three doctors, with no relief, and now have an appointment with a neurologist on Friday. One of my doctors sent me for a traumatic MRI this morning, (found out I don't like enclosed spaces!). So now I am waiting for Friday to see what the results are of that. Hopefully uneventful. Till then I wait.
Second thing, yesterday I found out that my permanent birth control(Essure- google that if you want to know what it is), was a 50% failure. After waiting three months for my body to produce scar tissue around the devices, I went to have it x-rayed. I was put through a very traumatic x-ray where they inflate my uterus with a solution, with no numbing or pain medicine, painfully uncomfortable! Having suffered through that whole ordeal just to find out that not only had one of them not scarred over like it should have, it somehow dislodged and is now floating in my abdomen! I went to the OBGYN today and he said that he has NEVER seen this happen.(Lucky me I won the lottery!)And now I have to go through surgery to have my tube tied and the object hopefully removed. If he can't find it, he is just going to leave it there. Nice.
So needless to say I am pretty traumatized after the last three days, and it's not over yet. I am handling it all pretty well because it is all out of my hands. I trust my doctors and trust that they will do what's best for me. And I trust the Lord. It is all in His hands. And I know that He is aware of me. I have already seen in this trial His tender mercies several times over, and for that I am grateful.

Bucket bather!


Myles loves his bucket time! He is too cute! Agree???

First Day of School! Wahoo!!!


Happy days are here again!!! Excited kids and excited mommie!
Cara has the same teacher this year and that makes year three with him. He really enjoys working with Cara and she has come so far in her academics that we felt it was a good thing to continue. Logan has a great first grade teacher that is full of enthusiasm and great ideas. Just what we need for Logan! Looks like it will be a great year!
