Life

hello-
we are here, alive, and happy!  yep we are!  =)
its amazing how different life is with 3 kids, and how it can throw a person off, and how much harder it is to get things done.  there is always something that needs done immediately, or someone needs something immediately, or something!  its so crazy!  but we are settling into a 'normal-crazy'  but i guess since its normal its not really that crazy, just busy.  *sigh*  i like it.
monkey is so happy.  well- relatively happy.  he is working on getting 6 teeth.  its been about a 18 day process, and as of this morning i can feel 4 of them.  so we are getting there.  he is getting happier, and its really cute to watch him feel his teeth with his tongue.  he is getting more and more of a personality and 'verbal' about what is good or bad.  i think its funny when he throws a tantrum, he just gets all wiggly and red.  heehee.  i love it.  oh and he is going to be a..... MONKEY  for halloween!   i know not very orignal, but how could i resist when i found a super cute costume!
chunk is now into Batman and Spiderman, and of course Transformer and dinosaurs.  he loves them all and talks about them all constantly.  he is always trying to fix things and build things and see how things work.  sometimes it makes life slightly difficult.  but its a good thing.  at the end of the year, he will be getting things to encourage building and stuff.  we are excitied for him to get them.  he is also trying to help more, and he really is a good help!  most of the time, he is only 3.  and for halloween he decided to be a tiger because we are the daingerfield tigers!  i have to say i dont think the costume is super cute, but its the one he wanted, so oh well.
jellybean.  she is all girl, and then some!  she is so girly is make me look like a tomboy sometimes!  it kills me sometimes!  she is also so stinkin sensitve, like when we were all sick, i was talkin to joe and said something to the effect of, 'oh, i feel like i could die!  oi!'  and she runs up to me with ginormous tears in her eyes and says "mom, dont die!  i would miss you so much!  i love you too much to die!"  it made me feel really bad!  so now we have to be careful that we dont use the "D" word, or others that relate to it.  but she is going to be a pink fariy princess for halloween- no shocker there!  but she is sweet.

that is all of us (minus monkey) with Izzie, this would be the bittersweet day that we gave her away.  it was a really hard desicion, but we knew it would be best for everyone if we gave her away.  the only reason that i was so ok with this, is the fact that i knew that she was going to a better place.  we gave her to my VT Patricia, and i think the main reason she came to see me, was to see izzie.  ;p  and i have gotten updates, and izzie is doing SOOOOOO good!  she has had hardly any accidents (which was a daily occurance here) and she is so happy.  so i am happy.  it has been kinda sad, cuz lady has been a bit lonelier, but she and ripple are playing lots and we are also seeing more or tiger.  its nice.

anyway- that is us for now!
