It would be an understatment to say we had a crazy week. That would be normal around here.
Bryant came down with the flu which kept him down a good week. We're still praying he's better and can make it to school tomorrow. He's had off and on fever for a good 5 days now, BUT was fever free today. We'll keep our fingers crossed.
Friday, Dayden decided to walk around and "talk" into the tube extender from the vacuum. Well, like usual, he fell but with that in his mouth and hit it on the table. That caused a big bloody mess with a busted lip and a tooth pushed backward which led to an emergency trip to the dentist. Not a great way to have your first trip but he did great. He let them do an xray and was such a big boy when they pulled it back into place. He cried a bit but was over it quicker than I was. Now we just hope it tightens and stays in place.
So that was our week. Never a dull moment.
Oh and totally off subject, Casey has a favorite Bible story that he requests every night (and has for a month or so now). It's the story of Mary and Martha. We haven't figured out why that's his favorite but he always requests the story with the girls and will even turn the page if you try to read a different one. :)

Growing up
That's what the boys have been doing "Growing Up"!! It's so bittersweet. I love them being teeny boys but I also love to see what they are becoming and learning.
Bryant is turning 6 in a couple months. That sounds so crazy to say that out loud. I remember him being my tiny baby like it was just the other day. He's doing great at school. He spells stuff for us all the time, reads random signs, enjoys books, and loves writing letters to us. He's also pretty darn good at math. He's a smart boy and I hope he keeps it up. And of course, he's still the best big brother. Sure he beats them up from time to time but that's what big brothers do. Other times you'll find him hugging and kissing Dayden saying how cute he is and how much he loves him. When he leaves for school, he'll go hug both of them and tell them bye. He's such a sweetie :)
Casey will be 3 in a few months (gasp)!!! That gasp is for the fact that he'll be three as well as the "terrible three's"....we didn't have "terrible two's" here not even with Bryant. The three's were way worse! So we're hunkering down and holding on for the ride :) But for now, he's still our little ham. He loves to captivate everyone with his smile and eyes. He's quite a character. He loves Bryant and always wants to do what he is doing and he loves to scream at and hit Dayden. I guess that's the way the middle child rolls ;). He's also a smart little boy. He loves to have you read him stories and then "read" them to you. He can count objects to 10 and match with the number. Pretty smart kiddo!
Dayden is 15 months old and our momma's boy!!!! He is ALWAYS wanting momma to hold him, pick him up, sit with him, or just be in his sight. What can I say, he loves me! He just had his check up and is a healthy 22lbs. He's not the biggest boy but he's in about the 50%. Definitely not a Bryant but growing well. He loves to eat so I'm sure he'll catch up. He's a walking monster. He's everywhere all the time and gets into EVERYTHING! I remember saying that about Casey, but I think he may be worse about getting whatever he can reach and trying to get things he can't reach. He loves to be in the middle of his brothers even when they are wrestling around. He can hold his own. He enjoys hitting and throwing toys as much as the others :) He's starting to talk more and more. He says: momma, dada, tank ooo (thank you), bye bye, nigh nigh, ball, and of course UH as he points to everything he sees :)
We definitely have our hands full with these three active boys but we wouldn't want it any other way!!!
