June 2022 until this summer 2023, has been the most difficult point in my life. I was at my lowest mentally, physically and emotionally. Tim and I separated and I am in an apartment and he is in the house. The kids have been splitting their time between us. It has taken a toll on all of us and we are adjusting to a new normal. (I don't even know why I said that because during covid, it was so annoying to hear it all of the time. lol) This is one of the reasons I am behind on updating the blog. The other reason is because I am lazy. After 10 years of updating this, I didnt want to stop so here we are. I am going to quickly get caught up from January-Sept and then I will be updating it much more frequently.
We didn't do a whole lot during these months. Avery continued to have hearing issues so the ENT doctor ordered an ultrasound of her ears. Since she has had hearing issues since birth, I am surprised they were just now ordering this. It turns out her right ear was not formed correctly and she is missing part of one of the bones. She would have a repeat hearing test and exam and then we would discuss further treatment options.
Ray is making snow!
Party at Chuck E. Cheese for Reagan's friend. I hung out with Mommy the whole time.
Get Air, I liked it for a while and then I got too tired from jumping.
My feet look huge in this picture
Daddy got us a gaming system that has a bunch of old Nintendo games on it. Mommy was introducing us to Super Mario Brothers. Her and Aunt Janet used to play this all of the time growing up.
Daddy got us rollarblades and Mommy got us the helmets and pads.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Mommy was so excited to vist Joe and Buddy. She misses them so much.
Reagan is nuts! She sat like this for over an hour one day
Lily and Momma helping me do my homework. I had covid but didn't realize it yet. Mommy had it too. I didn't feel great that day and then Mommy didn't feel great the next so we took tests. I am so used to doing those tests. They tickle my nose!
I was sick and my nose wouldn't stop running. I used more than one box of Kleenex over the weekend at Momma's.
I decided to dress up in my gymnastics leotard and do my own make up. Looks great, doesn't it?
Fun at the playground at Mommy's apartment
I finally had a tooth fall out on my own! My teeth were so bad from being born so early and having to drink Pediasure all day, everyday. They brushed my teeth but most of them were in bad shape so I had at least 3 dental surgeries over the last few years to pull them out and cap some of them. This was exciting when it fell out while I was eating a chicken pot pie. Lol. I could finally leave it for the tooth fairy!
Reagan always needs to bring Giant back and forth between Mommy and Daddy's house
This is the ultrasound of my ears. Mommy told me they were just going to take a picture but I was scared because it was really loud and spinning around my head. I am such a good girl and I sat completely still the whole time.
Practicing my headstands
Reagan likes to dance. She is trying to do the floss right here :)
This is Lily. I love her so much! We have had multiple dogs and cats but she is definitely my favorite :)
