Alot of nothin' goin' on

Ok so we have had a lot and nothing going on lately. Lets start with Kooper. He is growing like a weed. He is getting so big and really packing on the pounds. He seems to be having trouble focusing on you when you talk to him unless you are at about arms leght. I am going to the Dr next Friday and going to talk to him about it. But he is doing really well on the new diet. I am doing better I am finding things I can eat and trying things I thought I would never try... tofu.... still not a fan but it is ok. Kooper is also trying to sit up and is laughing all the time. What a blessing he is!

We went to my Aunt Lala's high school graduation party the other day and Jocelyn got all these fun pictures with Aunt Lala's camera.

Chase was a mess. he peeped out so he was in a diaper and shirt for most of it...uggg. He has so much fun. When I told him we are going to Grandpa's and Grandma Bethsy's he said Bethsy and Wawa? I thought it was so cute.



The kids all think their cousin Alana is a jungle gym and she always gets a really good work out when they are around.
Tate is now 100% potty trained...YEAH!!!! He has pink eye right now and trying to keep him away from Kooper is like trying to keep Chase out of the peanut butter... it is just not going to happen. Tate is a very good helper but some times loves Kooper to much. So when I told Tate he had pink eye he told me "no mom my eyes are blue and green" He is so cute.

Jocelyn and her Paapa. AAAHHHH. I love this picture of them! Jocleyn has had a rough week. School got out and now she is stuck with me every day poor Jocey. She had a infected cavity last Friday and it got so bad I had to find a dentist to take her to on Saturday and she got on some antibiotics and now is feeling much better but will go she a kid dentist on Monday.


Bryan went to Torrey Pines is San Diego for his birthday with our brother in law David. They had a great time. Bryan is just working like crazy and now with the heat he is working even later than before. But if you need wheels or tires go see him he will give you the friend/family discount!
I am working really hard at eating all the right things for Kooper and it is hard and emotionally draining but I am figuring it all out and even found a good vegan restaurant and the best part is they have soy ice cream and chocolate chip cookies! I have lost another pant size and a few more pounds. I just need to finish toning up my tummy and I will be able to go down one more size and be in a size 8!!! I can't wait!

GREAT NEWS!!!

Ok so I got the call we had been waiting for. Kooper doesn't have the glutaric acidemia. YEAH!!!! He how ever still can not tolerate any meat or dairy at all. I don't know why but the Dr said that he is to young to do a food allergy test on and that we could put him on a costly formula if I didn't want to be on the diet. Well I have decided that I would eat the diet he needs. He is worth it to me. I am eating a pretty vegan diet right now so if any one has ideas for recipes I am open to try just about any thing. Thank you for all your love, support and prays.

Still no new news

However Chase has found a new fun thing to do. Pull things out of the freezer and put them in the microwave to cook for 30 seconds at a time. He has figured out that if he pushes the start button that he can cook things just like the other kids. He cooks corn dogs, chicken nuggets, Popsicle, meatballs, things not found in the freezer that he cooks are baby socks, burp clothes, toy lizards and Bryan caught him trying to put a metal magnet in the microwave yesterday.....uuugggg.... but he is sure trying to take care of him self...lol....

Still no word on Kooper I have put 2 call in today and the Dr is with patients and hasn't called me back. I should get one at the end of the day when he can't place a second call into the geneticist. I don't want to have to make a appointment and pay $20 to talk to a Dr and find out what is going on.

I just keep trying to hold my head up high and take things one day at a time but it is hard when Kooper don't feel well and crys allot like he is in pain. I just don't know what to do.
