So here are some updates on us (exciting I KNOW!)
Daniel still works from home and ALSO has a night job. He gets PAID to get BUFF!! woo woo. He, my sister and two brothers work at fed ex loading trucks. Oh did I already post about his new job?? oh well. Nothing else new with him... except his ever growing biceps! oww oww!! hottie I tell ya
As for me, well nothing new at the moment. Just trying to keep everything balanced in life and trying to be patient for Spring! We have a trip for Hawaii planned (I KNOW!!!!) and another trip to Moab and another somethin somethin planned around then too! :) :)
As far as Ireland... well I have a whole post on her in the works. It is extremely sensitive to me and I am trying my hardest to write it with honesty but not trying to sound snotty or braggy or whatever else. I sure love my goo bear Ireland. She is rockin at dance class! Her teacher is awesome and is impressed with Ireland's dancing skills. Ireland has never put up a fight to go and looks forward to it each time!
Ireland is at an extremely emotional stage right now and I find it hard most times to understand why she is crying over something that to me seems so silly and to her is just devastating. We are learning to not get mad and be patient and understanding of whatever she is going through. She is so sweet and such a good helper. She is just sensitive like her mama! We cry over everything and that isn't a bad thing with her because she is so tender hearted and just wants the world and everyone in it to be ok, safe and happy! She is beautiful and has great manners. She is smart and knows so many things and asks so many questions. Bright young lady she is!!
Leighton- my poor, sweet Leighton. If it isn't one thing it's another with her. Poor girl has always been sick, always catching everything, always getting hurt. Right now she is getting over Croup. Besides the barking cough (that mainly was just at night) you would never know by watching her. She plays and jabbers and runs around like "what? I am FINE guys!" she is on steroids and antibiotics (because on top of croup she also has some other bug) She already naturally has this adorable raspy voice so since she has had this sickness it magnifies her raspy-ness. SO cute! When we say prayers she repeats us and it is too precious! She LOVES scriptures!! I kid you not. I pull them out and she claps her hands and says "scriptures! scriptures!" but in a one year old way you know. She sits down and just.... listens. there aren't even pictures!! She loves to be read to that much!!!
Oh also Leighton needs glasses. temporary ones though. I have noticed her right eye randomly wanders and she goes cross eyed for no reason. It's called Amblyopia and is totally something we can fix. We take her to an opthamologist Monday for a THREE hour appt. they will give her glasses that blur her good eye which forces the bad eye to see correctly. Not sure how it works. Dan took her to the pediatrician and got the details, not me. It makes sense now why she is ALWAYS running in to things and falling in to things. She has been walking and running for months now and isn't clumsy so as sad as it is I am glad to know it's her eye sight so now we can fix it!
well all this is repeat info if we are friends on face book but this is easier for me to look back and find and read so I will always repeat things here. Anyway I am exhausted and don't make sense so... good night
