I took Logan to the Doctor yesterday afternoon and he has an Upper Respiratory Infection, Viral Infection, Rhinitis and Pharyngitis. I have been giving him a lot of pedialyte because his urine outtake is not that good. The Doctor prescribed Zithromax. He has been getting up a lot during the night just crying and really congested. Poor little guy. We have just been staying in doors these past couple of weeks trying to keep him healthy.

Today the girls had a Church activity it was Hairstyling and when they were done they had there pictures taken. They had so much fun getting there hair done and it turned out so good, They look so beautiful.

We had a very busy weekend, Saturday we worked on the outside of the house adding more rock and also put in some solar lights up and down both sides of the driveway and walkway. It looks really nice.

Sunday we worked inside the house Richard added baseboards to our Master bath because when we moved in there were none there. The girls and I organized there bedrooms and moved furniture around adding a little more space.

Richard starts his Vacation July 3rd so we will be paint the garage one of those days. And plan on taking the kids out and do stuff with them.

We just found out today Richard's Beaver,UT run got cancelled so he will be on extra board which means he will go were ever there is work. So all this week he will be going to Wickenburg, AZ which is great that is awesome miles. I cannot wait for his Vacation to start we will have him for an entire week.

Logan is SICK AGAIN, he was better for an entire week and got sick again his cough is worse. I have no idea why he is getting sick all the time, I really don't take him anywhere. He has a Doctor's Appointment today at 3:30. I had to cancel his Therapy tomorrow and they told me he might loose his spot if he misses anymore which they tell me all the time. I was like OK I will bring him sick. They said well we don't want you to do that. Well then. So I have to get a Doctor's note saying he is to sick to go to therapy. I swear....

I have been remembering the past and all of the things Logan has over come, so I decided to look through some old photos and found these he was only one years old at the time these were taken. He has grown so much since then his personality has really blossomed. He understands everything you say to him. I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I have.....

What a big Ham....




Logan loves his glow worm, he calls it his Baby






Logan had Therapy today, he did good in Speech. His Therapist uses the Kaufman Flash Cards and really tries hard at pronouncing the words he sees.

O.T. he cried so I had to go in and sit there while he did his therapy, He really needs to be seen twice a week but she is completely booked so Logan will be put on a waiting list when an extra day becomes available.

For some reason Logan has this fear of falling when he sits in a child's chair he freaks out, but if he is in a chair with a table in front of him he is fine. This just started up recently and I have no idea why. Also when I sit on the couch and I put him on my lap facing me he freaks out he is afraid he will fall down.

Another concern is when he chews food he does not chew very well he will take a bite chew once or twice and then swallow. Today she gave him a piece of Licorice to see if he would chew it and he just took a couple of licks and that was it. He will almost eat anything by mouth, but he does have texture problems if that makes any sense at all. So we will be concentrating on that also.

Almost forgot Logan ate 4oz of vanilla pudding in Therapy.... way to go Logan :)

Happy Father's Day

WOW what a day it was, the girls had so much fun and they really made out, Gift cards, Money, Jewelry, Jewelry Boxes. My mom made the girls jewelry boxes they turned out so cute, it is something truly to treasure for years to come. Richard and I got the girls Nintendo WII w/gaming accessories, case and sonic unleashed.

Everyone came and had tons of fun, after 2 1/2 hours of skating the girls were ready to go home bruises and all. We had some family come in from California and after the party we came back to our house and Richard Bar b qued. I was so tired by the end of the day.

Today the kids and I made it out to Church, Logan was in Nursery for 2 hours and he did pretty good, fussed on and off for a little bit but was fine. We came home and Richard just woke up and is getting ready to leave for work, unfortunately he has to work today. Before he left for work he was able to set up the WII for the girls so they are playing with that right now.

Logan is doing great back to his normal self throwing toys and tantrums and being a little cutie pie. His Nurse was able to come over yesterday and watch him so I could concentrate on the girls and there special day.

I also wanted to wish my Husband a Happy Fathers Day. When I look at you being a Dad to our Children my heart swells with gratitude and pride, I feel so blessed to have a Husband like you. I am so thankful that my children are blessed with a Father as caring, thoughtful, and supportive as you. I want to thank you for always putting our children's interest first. We love you from the bottom of our hearts.

Happy Ninth Birthday Elizabeth and Alicia

I cannot believe my little girls are already nine today they grow up so fast right before your eyes. We have a big day planned. They are having there Party at the Skating Rink from 12-2 and all of there friends are coming they are so excited. Then at 3 we have family coming over to celebrate and open more gifts. We are having a Bar B Que hamburger's and hot dogs and all the fixens.
I feel so bad for Richard he got home this morning and will only get about 2 hours of sleep.

I will post pictures tomorrow.

This morning Logan had an appointment with Dr Stewart his Orthopedic, every time we go there he says the same thing it does not look like Logan will need surgery for his legs and he does not know if Logan will walk. While the Surgery part is great, I am a very optimistic Mother and I believe my son will walk some day. The Doctors have been wrong with Logan in the past. He gave us a Prescription to get him a walker/stroller chair for him to use while he is in School.
Since his AFO's (leg braces) were getting to small they fitted him for another pair, we should have those in about 4 weeks.

We then came home had lunch Logan got to take a little nap and out we go again I called the pediatrician and was able to get him in. Logan is still not feeling well and has been very cranky these past few days, He was up at 2am this morning just screaming and did not want to go back to sleep. After an hour of screaming I put him down he fussed for a little bit and then started talking to him self, then up again for good at 5am. The Doctor said he does not have an ear infection which totally shocked me. He has Pharyngitis and Stomatitis he gave me a script for it. So hopefully he will be feeling better real soon.

Alicia and I are doing so much better which is good because Logan keeps me up a lot at night.

Richard is doing good he has been out of town and hopes to be back by Saturday morning for the girls Birthday party.

Thanks for checking in on our family!
