Love my kids

Kallie 7 months 133

What do I love about a three, almost four year old?  That dress up never gets old and has no limits.  And I love this little boy and his imagination.

This little girl is mighty sweet as well.  She is getting so busy all the time.

Montana’s Toy Drive

Kallie 7 months 082

The Toy drive in memory of Montana was such a beautiful experience.  We collected toys from friends and family for a couple months leading up to the Anniversary date of Montana’s death.  Each donation meant the world to us.  Thank you so much for your farm toy donations.

The week of our scheduled toy delivery, was the week Kaden got sick and had to spend so much time at the doctor/hospital.  Which made this experience even more near and dear to my heart.  Kaden wanted to go with us to deliver the toys to the sick kids at the hospital.

The hospital gave Chloe a special book and spoke to her, it was very sweet.  Chloe was so excited about the day and to give all those toys in memory of her baby brother.  Kim did well.  I was hard for her, but good for her at the same time.

Thanks to our wonderful friends and families, we donated almost 200 new farm themed toys, books, and games.

We took Chloe and Kaden ice skating after we delivered the toys.  Fun to watch Kaden learn how to ice skate.

A Big Scare!

Kallie 7 months 071

The last week of January Kaden had huge lymph nodes in his neck and other parts of the body.  We took a trip over to Children’s Medical City, and it ended up his cause for the lymph nodes were unknown.  He started a strong course of antibiotics, and the hospital recommended he see a hematologist/oncologist because his blood levels.  It was scary seeing the referral written out for our child to go to an oncology/hematology doctor.  The follow up was a few days later in Dallas at Texas Oncology.  The doctors were amazing.  The facility amazing.  And, we ended up with all good news.  Nothing bad like lymphoma or lukemia, praise the Lord!  But, the cause for the swelling in his lymph nodes is unknown.  We are to go back and have blood drawn again to ensure his levels are back to normal.

This all happened just a few days before his 4th birthday.  Lance and I were so scared.

After this little boy having to have blood taken three days in one week, we had to have some fun to make up for all the scary/painful stuff.  Kaden was so brave and good.

We were so relieved and thankful for good news for our little man. 

Kallie at Six and Seven Months

Kallie 7 months 022

Lots of things happened during your seventh month, Kallie.

You got your first bottom tooth in, then a couple days later your second tooth in.  You rocked and scooted the beginning of the month, then by the third week of the month you were crawling all over the place as well as pulling up and standing.  You are so interested in walking and would rather stand than crawl.  Your hair is growing so fast.

This is a 9 month dress the last day you wore this size.  You quickly went into 12 month clothes in the beginning of your 7th month.

You were actually still 6 months old in these pictures.

Visit from Sister

Kallie 7 months 016

My sweet sister and her two beautiful boys visited us in January.  These sweet little ones where 6 months and 7 months old.  I think Kallie outweighed Austin by a pound at this visit and both were wearing about 9 month clothes.  Austin had his two bottom teeth at this visit, Kallie still with none.
