Buh, Buh, Poop!

By -
So, I am sort of thinking that the title of this blog will get more people reading it than normal. I mean, it's hard to not read something if there is poop involved. Okay, maybe that's just me. Really it's more about gas than anything. Makes you want to keep reading, doesn't it? Ha! I knew I had you hooked! Really it's about Trinity. It's usually about one of my kids, right? Spend any time around here and you know that's the truth. Trinity burped today. Then she tells Autumn and I that she "pooped". We looked at each other and asked her if she needed to poop. She's learning all that stuff right now, so it made sense. "No, me poop" she says. "Did you already poop?" we ask. Then we get it. She had just burped. "Did you burp?" we ask. "Yes."

Now we're getting somewhere. Trinity, the word is "burp". "Poop", she says. "No, buh, buh, burp". And then it comes, "Buh, buh, poop!"

Ha, everyone likes poop jokes!


This is about as good as we can get right now with the two of them. That'll work!


This also about as good as it gets with mom and two kids!


So how does this picture fit in? Seriously, what is that?


Miner's Jubilee weekend brought some fun in the sun for all of us. For Teagan, it was about the candy. Nice!


Trinity was in parade with her preschool, with her BFF Ava!


Looks like Teagan isn't the only one who likes candy!


The boy likes music, and he ain't too bad either! Love that he wants to try!


Drum Corp for 8 years now. Where did the time go?


So we close this post with a thought: grandchildren can get old folks to do all kinds of things, things they would never normally do. It starts to answer the question that Autumn and I asked (and still ask): we have kids so that our kids can make our parents do foolish things...ha!

Waiting For a Miracle

As many of you know, Trinity is in the pediatric ICU at St. Luke's Regional Medical Center in Boise, Idaho. She's been having seizures but as yet there is no diagnosis aas to what the underlying problem might be. Autumn and I are learning a great deal and I am getting a crash course in ICU medicine. Trinity has been sedated since Monday morning about 2am Mountian Time. She is on a ventilator, so the sedative is to keep her from fighting all the tubes. One thing we have learned is that we don't have control of this situation. It's hard because I don't want my daughter to suffer. I don't want her to have permanent damage from this. I want my daughter back because I miss her terribly. But I have to let all of that go and trust that God has our best in mind. I have to because I can't do a single thing to help her right now. So I pray and cry a little and sing to my baby. Autumn is doing the same. We have been incredibly blessed to have support from all over the ...

The end of a good thing

Okay, I am a fan of breastfeeding. That sounded weird. I don't like it for me, but for my kids. Autumn worked very hard at it, with wonderful results for Teagan and Trinity both. She was so successful that we are just now, 9 months after weaning Teagan, running out of frozen stores of breast milk for his bottles. Now, we haven't been giving it to him exclusively. He has been on cow's milk ever since he was a year old. It's been mostly for night time bottles. Unfortunately now that's over too. Here's our memorial service for breast milk: Proud mommy...and she should be! Yep, he loves him some breast milk! And now, since that chapter is over and a new one is started, we'll talk about the grieving process. Poor little Teagan will likely be going through an extensive emotional adjustment. Let's see one scenario of how it might  go: The first reaction will be typical crying. He doesn't get what he wants, so he cries. Hey, don't we all? At th...

I get bored pretty easy. I get tired of the same old thing. But I discovered something. I don't get tired of my wife or daughter. Do they get on my nerves sometimes? Sure, but I never get tired of them. We went to Boise last week (or was it the week before?) for follow-up appointments for Trinity. We were there for two days because Trinity was scheduled for a follow-up MRI and they won't see her at the neurologist's office the same day as the MRI. I can see why; she has to be put to sleep for the MRI because it takes over 45 minutes and she has to stay still. Trinity can't stay still for 45 seconds, much less 45 minutes! Here are some photos from the trip: Here's Miss Smiley-Bug waiting for her turn in the MRI machine. She was having fun crawling around and trying to pull on as many dangling cords as possible. She's so much fun to be around. She barely even cried when they put the IV in her arm. She did fight a little, just because she doesn't like being hel...
