October 2009

Let's recap the month in a nutshell....

Jadyn - Needs another tooth pulled, her adult teeth come in twice as fast as her baby teeth come out. This is getting expensive, there are a LOT of teeth in a kids mouth! Found a handful of new friends at our church home. Feeling more "at home". Schoolwork is getting better and easier flowing. Finally connected "real" world to her history. She is learning the Middle East and connected what she is reading with NCIS. Ha! Love it!

Jeffery - New buddy from church as well! Learning to play football and how to play like a real boy, been hard when he only has had 2 sisters to play with. Doing great at school! Missing Lafayette less and less. Still counting days to when he can play the video games. It seems that just as he is about to regain the games he does something to mess it up again. My poor guy! I keep praying he learns but I don't know that it is possible, he is a BOY! lol

Jenna - Has surprised us with how well she does with Torbin. She is so loving and playful with him. Just like a big sister should be. She hates when he is upset, she tries her hardest to calm him down. She has been sick this week. Still whiny so not quite back to normal but getting there. Liking school a lot! She has learned how to read 1 and 2 vowel words. She can even write her name in cursive! She is so proud of herself.

Torbin - Belly laughs now, rolls around like nobodys business, and can even sit up for a few without assistance. Ah my baby boy is getting big already. How fast they grow and learn. He is only 5 months old and wearing 12 month clothes. Now if only he could figure out that you have to use your hands and arms to crawl. He throws them out like he can just take off and fly. Not getting anywhere that way.

Josh - Seeing a chiropracter now. Not sure how we feel quite yet other than expensive! Over the 2 night classes in Lafayette he is enrolled in. Still has another 2 months and its wearing him out. Not moving quite as well as he did a few years ago. Moving more like an old man, ha and I keep reminding him he will be 30 this year! So long 20's!

Theresa - Busy Busy Busy! Trying my hardest to keep up with laundry, but it's an unending task. We had a rough week at the beginning of the month with food vs money. Money won to the bills, food lost major time. But God pulled us thru! Now we are trying to bless those that have blessed us. We never gave up our tithe to the church though. I am so proud of that about us. I have been busy trying to enroll us both at Southeastern University in Florida, online degree for Theology. I am so so so exicted! We are gonna minor in Missions. Trying to finish up the paperwork for FAFSA and enrollment. It is way more work than I originally thought, but going to be well worth it I hope.

Will keep you all updated! Persevere, Pray, and Possess Patience! God Bless!
