Surgery date change!

Surgery has been moved up to October 26th!!
We have an amazing group of friends who are stepping up and helping us with childcare, meals, grocery shopping, laundry, etc.
Although I am starting to get nervous, having 5 kiddos is distracting :)
But my heart is heavy...
October 25th will be the 3 yr anniversary of saying goodbye to my Momma.
If my family crosses your thoughts, please pray for us.

Surgery!

Yes, surgery!
Only it's Mommy's turn this time!
I will be having a total hysterectomy, estimated date is November 16th.
I have been terrible at posting recently even with all my camera excuses!
So, with so much going on in the next 6 wks I doubt there will be much of an increase in posting. I will promise one big post with LOTS of pics before surgery because the Little Princess turns 1 on Nov. 6th! And there is Halloween happening... and an early anniversary celebration... and whatever else happens to come up with this crazy family!

Catching Up

I lost my camera... about a month ago!
So we have some catching up to do!
*yet another stupid blogger disclaimer... for some reason some of the type wants to be a link. sorry*
On Sept. 4th our first baby turned 10 years old!

Our first celebration was a mother/daughter lunch at Red Robin with friends.

The second celebration was Sydni's "Minute to Win It" party.
If you have ever watched that game show then you know these
girls had a lot of fun!Face The CookieUsing only their face muscles to move the cookie from their forehead
to their mouth!A Bit Dicey
Stack 5 dice on a popsicle stick that is in their mouth

Junk In The Trunk

The object is to get the 8 ping pong balls out of the kleenex box
that they are wearing around their waists!
This was one of the funnest games!

Well, this wasn't a part of any of the games...
just girls being silly!!

10 candles!! So hard to believe!So here are some random pics of some random things
we've been up to.
Amelleah has been enjoying the cooler temps and
actually being able to play outside!
These pics are not that great in quality but
they are so cute anyway.

Lincoln LOVES pushing her in the swing...
he is laughing, not crying, in this pic.I was upset this one was so blurry...
they were looking at each other.. SO CUTE!Friends!
The Coons are now a family of 4.
We finally made it to Oklahoma on Labor Day to
meet baby Xaris!The boys had a blast playing outside.Miles earned his nickname, Uncle Boogie...
can you guess why?Yes, he picked her nose!
We also watched about an hour of an air show!And talked two other families into going to the drive in.
How many engineers does it take to tie down the tailgate??

And then they just took it down.... haha!"strike a pose"
good thing these boys aren't on facebook yet!

Very random pic...
I was talking with a friend one day and Lincoln kept asking for
chocolate milk... I keep trying to put him off...
Then he came into the living room looking like thisA cup of chocolate with very little (if any) milk!
That's my boy!!

So school has been going well for all three kids.
Lincoln and Amelleah have been going to a mom's day out program at our church one day a week, which has been great for all of the doctor appointments Salyna has been going to lately.
(that will be another post)
We've had to break out the nebulizer early this year... Amelleah has been having a rough time from what appears to be allergies and chest congestion. The doctor is concerned that she may have asthma. Her leg scar is still doing great. She will be walking VERY soon!
