School has started!

Well, our latest adventure this weekend was our first broken bone in our household. Brooke takes the 1st prize. She was playing with Dayne in the backyard and tripped over his leg. She broke 2 bones near her elbow but will only have to wear the cast for about 3 weeks. We had to take her to the emergency room since it was late Saturday night. She was screaming so much they had to give her an IV to provide medicine to calm her down :)

Well my dear sweet Ali started the 2nd grade. She loves her teacher and is really excited about what the new year will bring. For those that haven't heard Ali was diagnosed with a seizure disorder that we discovered about 3 weeks ago. She had been having some small facial seizures for the last few month but at the end of August she had a Grand Mal seizure that gave us a bit of a scare. But after a day of testing in the emergency room, the seizure disorder is something that she will grow out of at about the age of 16 and will not have to worry about it in the future. We are so grateful.

Sydney & Brooke have officially started Preschool. They are so excited to be big girls and go to school. I hope that this year will be one of many advancements and they will begin to find who they are as individuals as they learn new things.

Dayne has started 4th grade this year. He is doing scouts, piano and will start Basketball soon. He is becoming so independant and definalty growing up. We just love his fun personality. Now the only challenge for him is to find the time to do homework and not spend all of his time with all the neighborhood boys.
