Completely appropriate for today...


Jakob has lost 4 teeth in the last month or so & Isaac FINALLY lost his 4th tooth this morning.
(he woke us up at 4:15am after rolling over and it popping out!)

We're all sick...

Yep. All but John (lucky stinker!). It was confirmed today what I have suspected - the boys all have strep throat. Pretty sure I am the one that started it and still have it but its "unconfirmed".

So here we all are, starting to go stir-crazy! John 'gets' to escape to work every day, but we'll be confined to the house till we aren't contagious anymore...

Christians mouth... Nasty!

Jakobs mouth and "whoa" tonsils... YIKES!
Even the Dr and nurse today were surprised at the size of his tonsils! I imagine he'll be getting them out before too long.

I couldn't get a pic to show you of Isaac's throat. Not that you are terribly interested anyway!

Here's to a healthy Christmas!

By Christian

~Jakob~

Every time I find
The time to remind
That I would be nothing
I would be bluffing
If I said I don't care
About that long hair
And about that grin
Right above his chin
But I don't own
That accident prone
Funny little man
He made me who I am
I love him with all my heart
It would hurt to be apart
Even though he farts
And his smart-alek remarks
I love his eyes
I wouldn't plan his demise
He was born to stand out
Not dawdle in the crowd
He is not a copy
He is an only
The one, the only
Jakob


(This was written by Christian. After a particularly rough day of fighting and generally not getting along, I gave them the 'what-for' and told them to go write as many good things as they could think of about each other. Chris came to me with this beautiful and eloquent poem a little while later. It was so heart-felt and sincere. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have.)

Creatures

These are just some of the creatures I encounter as a mom of boys...







(Yes, this is a real bullfrog)

A 11 & 13 year old views...












These wonderful pictures were all taken by either Christian or Jakob.

My favorite is the one of them together, it reminds me that they DO love each other and aren't always at each others throats!
