Helping words to get through life

"To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did" When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.
'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' "

Fun, Family, Friends and the 4th!!!

Sorry it has been so long but things have been bussy here. At the end of June my Aunt Cissy and her daughter Brittany came down to see us and the kids. Paisley loved both of the so much and was always talking to them. If Brittany got out of sight she would cry until she could see her again. It was so sweet and she even talked about them for a week after

Brittany and Cissy with Keyton.... Was really bad and this was the only picture of them.

Then it was off to Abilene for the 4th!!! Tryon's whole family was there and it was so much fun to hang with all the Sibs. Paisley loved playing with Mara and Mikayla all day everyday. She really loved being a big girl with them, swimming with them (which made her to brave), and getting so much attention from everyone. Blake and her Play a game where she would scream then he would and then she would say you got me and he would so no you got me. They did it every night and she is still doing it now with anyone who will. I also loved watching her and Mara play together with what ever they could find and at every house. Mikayla was so cute taking care of her and helping her get on the bed. Keyton loved getting held and really loved his Abbey. He would let her do anything and everything to him. I am so glad for the time with everyone.

Then my Brother Jaden came to see us!! It was his first time to see Keyton and Paisley was only 8 months the last time he saw her. We had a great time...He is doing great and loving living near Dallas, He is a choir leader and his church and is working for the rehab. center right now and loving it.


Paisley and Jaden... Later will post the one with Keyton but its on Mom's camera.

Now for just the update on the kids and the cute fun pics.

KEYTON is getting to big, on the 20th he rolled over for the first time from tummy to back. He does not really know how he did it yet but it was sooooo exciting!!!! He also started eating on the 21st just once a day and is so excited about eating with the family! Also (thank God) he is starting to only wake up once a night to eat (FINALLY!!!!) I am so glad and am going to wait a few weeks then move him into His room!!! I will be great to have him in his own area! He is trying to say mama and is always happy and talking all the time. He loves his time with Paisley!



PAISLEY, she is just to smart! She now counts everything she can and can count to 10 sometimes 12. She is still working on the colors but knows blue orange yellow and pink. I love how she talks so well and learns new words like they are nothing. I love how she loves to "read" to Keyton and teaches him. She will point to a letter and say " Keekee A Keekee thats A" or " Keekee Keekee thats blue" She is doing my job. She loves to now help "carry" the car seat (she calls it walking Keekee). It is too sweet. Oh by the way she knows how to say Keyton and does if I tell her something is his she will tell me "Oh thats Keyton's ____" , she just likes to call him Keekee.


Oh ..... We had a big scare with her this week. On Sunday we went out to eat at Chili's for the anv. (with the kids.) and she wanted to try the hot sause. Tryon did the fake dip but that did not fool her, so he gave her some. She loved it and had a little bit more than we would have liked. Later that night her face was a little swollen, we watched her and sleep with a moniter so that if she started gagging I could hear her. The next day her face was fine but I found spots forming on her legs. Mom looked at it and said it looked like chicken poxs so we went to the dr. She said it was not (by now they were all over her and spreading fast) it was a really really bad reaction to something and if she had to much it could be fatel. Well by the time I got home her legs were almost all red plus her arms lower stumic and face. Called chilis to find out what was in the hotsause and found out it was the jalopenos. Now she is on med. to get the hives gone and it has been 3 days and they are just now going away. So we can't cook with jalopenos for her or let them touch her skin!!! I was so scared and freaking out the whole day when she started breaking out.

Bad rash but not at its worst...
