Not me Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.


I did not let my kids where the same clothes for two days straight including to bed. Nope not me. My kids always have on clean clothes every day and jammies at night.

I did not let Evan have ice cream and a cookie for breakfast on Friday morning. Even though it was 90 degrees. Nope nobody would do that especially not me.

Somebody did not ask if I were Evan's big sister when we were walking on the beach the other night. And I most certainly did not almost say Yes because I was so flattered.

I did not call the bus driver on her cell phone to see why she was late picking Morgan up for summer session at school this morning. I mean really who would be that impatient?

I am NOT sitting here typing this not me Monday post when I am supposed to be cleaning for the inlaws.

Mini golf fun

So we have decided we really love going to play putt putt. Evan is just too funny to watch. He totally does not follow the rules and sometimes even uses his putter backwards. Is there really anything cuter?
Yesterday after church we went for the second time in the past few weeks. This time to Shell we Golf. It was a lot harder then the last place we went and though it was not really handicap accessible for Morgan we had a great time. Luckily I have a strong husband who was able to carry her special needs stroller and all through the course.

Something big happened at our house this week

We have waited 7 long years to see this..................Drum roll please..............................


Wow! Can it be that she is feeding herself???????

Yes she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so proud and amazed. Thank you so much God. For so long I doubted this day would ever come but you knew it would. I must say it was well worth the wait. We still have a very long road ahead of us as far as feeding goes but this is such a huge leap.

She has been feeding her self about 1-2 jars of baby food a day. She won't do it in the morning yet because she is to sleepy but she has been doing it consistently.

Sometimes(especially lately) we question moving to Delaware to get her help since we had to give up our house in PA to live in house that is not ours but something like this makes us realize God has us exactly where we need to be.

A Pirate in the Delaware bay?

This guy has been spotted several times lately.
Hmm!

A cake,a rainbow, and a case of pink eye 6/20/09

Today was Morgan's 7th Birthday. It so hard to believe that she is 7. Not to mention that she now weighs about 44 pounds which is huge compared to the 3lbs. 5oz she was at birth.
Today did not turn out exactly as I would have liked.
When Morgan woke up this morning I took one look at her and realized very quickly that she had a case of pink eye in both eyes. Yuck! We went through this last June. Not sure what it is with June and pink eye in this family?

So my mom and step dad decided not to come down for fear of getting the dreaded pink eye. I already swear I am getting it, not sure if its paranoia or not.
It also rained most of the day. That seems to be the norm lately.

I have to admit I was feeling really down and depressed. That was until I saw this.
Just as God put a rainbow in the sky as a covenant that he would never flood the whole earth again, I feel I was given this rainbow to show that even though today did not go as I had planned God is always there for us. It was only in the sky for a few short minutes but it sure had a big impact on me.

Oh and here was her cake. Since nobody was coming Brent picked it up at Walmart. I think it was the perfect cake for a princess. Even though she would never eat it LOL.
Sometimes things don't go the way we want but in the end it all works out.
