Were they waiting patiently or were they posing for the camera?
Tom volunteered to cook and had to be at the church at 7 am.
Afterwards the kids all played water balloon toss. That was a hit for sure. They even liked trying to get the Bishop wet.
I've captured some cute pictures of the kids this summer and thought that I would share them with you. The one of Eliza is blurry but soooo cute of her. This has been a rare look in her trying life. What do you guys think???
We have done so much it seems like this summer and I have the pictures to prove it. This day we went to a local lake with a friend.
You have to be a member to use these facilities but she can have guests. It was such a nice place.
They had a lake, a pool, campgrounds, putt putt golf. It was so nice.
Our friend invited us and that night she called me to tell me that her trailer had burned down to the ground. So sad but we had such a good time before all the bad news.
As you can tell we all had such a good time.
We are back and have so much to update on but first thing is first. Guess what we found out about our sweet little Eliza. She has acid reflux. The day before we left she had a well baby and shots and I talked to the doctor about how she cries all the time and is not eating well. She has only gained 4 ounces in 2 months. The doc says she has acid reflux and perscribed medicine. I was just elated that something could actually be wrong. I mean I thought why is it that the Lord has seen fit to send us such a hard child and I must be doing something wrong. So the way the doc described it is this. Her tummy hurts and spits up acid into her esophagus and it is getting burned. So she gave her medicine to control the acid and medicine to coat her esophagus so that she will want to eat instead of it hurting. I have tried everything bottles, formula, cereal and nothing. The doc said that when a baby has this they just learn that it hurts to eat and decide they won't do it at all. She is back to my sweet little Eliza that I met when she was born. I am just elated. I wish that you all could meet her- the happy her. She is just a doll.
I can't believe that Nathan is actually 9 years old. It was fun watching him get all excited about his special day. We went and saw Wall E in the theaters Saturday afternoon and then came home and did cake and icecream. We told him that we had a special activity planned. They all wanted to see the movie but we kept telling them that there was no way that we could go becuase it costs so much to go. They were all excited when we walked into the theater. Nathan was even more excited when Tom walked in with his friend Zach. They got to see the movie together then hang out at the house together. He is still my baby but he is so big.
