The never ending headache

I had a HUGE headache this week
THis was the reason for not blogging on Sunday
More of th

I have two of these hampers
My boys love to play in them


 I love Braxton Photo bombing Michael in this picture;)  

I think Braxton and I look a lot alike in this picture. 
He is getting so big. 


 Max, so big rolling from side to side.  
He discovered his toes this week.
Tried carrots and apples for the first time 

 
Braxton was suppose to make a silly face with me
 his had is covering his
I just look ridiculous. 

This kid has got such a smile
His WHOLE face just lights up

I love this picture of Caden's crazy eye.

 WE tilt our heads to the side when we smile.
They must learn it from me
Braxton did it too in the earlier picture

 Trying to steal a kiss
 He was not having it

Wresting on the stairs.  
It does not seem to mater how many times I ask them to stop
This is the spot to play
I guess it will just take a really fall before they will listen to me
...ya right

NuGGetS

 This kid is so CUTE
The doctor wanted to try glasses before surgery
He had these on for five whole minutes

 There were no lenses in them
The doctor said the lenses will make them worse
He does not need them for vision, just for eye correction 
So the lenses will bother him more

THE WILLIAMS 
I can say that this is Caden's first friend
Grayson lived next door and these two would play for HOURS
Either the best of friends or the worst of enemies.

Recently (like a week ago) the Williams bought a house and moved
This is Caitlin, I have missed her!  
When she said they wanted to came spend the day we said PLEASE

All the kids playing

Max enjoying some V-D 
Strong Lexi

 Maybe Max got to much V-D
He is my burn baby
 We were out side for five minutes.

It did not seem to bother him much


Conference Weekend 
 We take the tramp down Oct conference and put it back up April conference

 The boys were so excited to jump again




Michael giving me a thumbs up
  
Caden picking at the one little spot on the tramp
If anyone knows how to patch a tramp please let me know



 He is biting his tongue...
I do that



The  headache I mentioned in the beginning NEVER went away.  I lost sight twice throughout the week, and double vision on Saturday.  
I tried to ignore it, oil it away, drink it away, IB profane it away, bless it away.
Nothing was working.
After throwing up all day Saturday and Sunday, I finally caved and went in to the ER
Four shots of Morphine, and a percocet finially got on top of the pain.
I have a sinus infection and something else called 
Arnold–Chiari malformation
A congenital malformation. Is generally asymptomatic during childhood, but often manifests with headaches and cerebellar symptoms. Herniation of cerebellar tonsils.[5][6][7] Tonsillar ectopia of more than 3 mm below foramen magnum. Syringomyelia of cervical or cervicothoracic spinal cord can be seen. Sometimes the medullary kink and brainstem elongation can be seen. Syndrome of occipitoatlantoaxial hypermobility is an acquired Chiari I Malformation in patients with hereditary disorders of connective tissue.[8] Patients who exhibit extreme joint hypermobility and connective tissue weakness as a result of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or Marfan Syndrome are susceptible to instabilities of the craniocervical junction and thus acquiring a Chiari Malformation. This type is difficult to diagnose and treat.[9]
  
THe doctor said I will get headaches more often then mosts, and my neck can become stiffer quicker than most.  I did not even know I had the problem, it just escalated my sinus pressure.

There is our week

March in review

I am taking a note from a friends book and going to try to blog every Sunday night.  Once a week seems doable...
Because nothing has been said about our lives for a couple of ...months... I will start at the beginning of March.

Th bumbo bath.  We suction the bumbo to the bottom of the tub and give the babies  a bath.  All four boys have taken baths this way, and this was Max's first. 

 He loved watching his toes play int he water.  

Look how fat he is!  I love all the rolls and the major Moobs. (man boobs) ;) 
   

St Patricks Day


 A leprechaun can into our house and picked all the green fruit loops out of the cereal.



 he also dyed out milk green

 This little projected was so fun. 
 Braxton was so proud of his design.  SO awesome

 My Caden.  
 Happy baby.  Such a good kid





Easter dying 
 So fun

 CRAZY eye
 We tried new things this year.  We tried the Shaving cream idea that is floating around Pinterest.  It was so fun, MESSY, but fun, and made really pretty eggs.

Easter Sunday
 Look how blessed I am!
 Braxton informed me today that he is six 1/2! WHAT!!!  He is growing up so fast


 I asked Michael to smile...this is what I got.  

This baby boy is such a personality.  He eludes it out of every inch of himself.
 His funny face
 Almost six months.  So happy and smiley

 The boys!  I am always so amazed how spoiled I am.  

 Today was a day were I was most definitely OUT NUMBERED!  But tomorrow is another day and it will be different and better.
Oh and PS  I made all the ties.  I am proud of myself and they looked so great!
Braxton took this of us.  I think he did a good job.
