found it!

I finally found the cord to connect my camera to the computer... here are a few recent pictures... we are still keeping busy "trying" to unpack in our new home, having therapy for whitney 7 times/week (6 through the early intervention program and 1 hippotherapy - horse therapy-), trying to get to the pool and enjoy summer and just living this crazy thing called "LIFE" :)
Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July holiday and that the summer is treating you well! I LOVE LOVE LOVE summer - July is just about as good as summer gets!







Anne's 2nd jump ever from the high-dive!!!

funny blog/embarrasing dad

If you get a chance, check out this article that Mike sent to me and to my parents/siblings this morning... this is something that would have been up my Dad's alley (thank goodness he did not think of this!) This Dad waved to his sophomore-in-high school son every morning dressed in costume this past school year. Here is the article:


here is a link to their blog if you want to check out some of the costumes:

here is a picture of the Dad in costume on the second-to-last day of school...

still here...

Hi~ we are still alive. We moved to a new house about 8-10 minutes from our old house at the end of April and were without internet access for about 2 weeks. While living in the new house we have changed out almost all of the flooring so we have still not actually "moved" in. We have movers coming next week to help us with the big furniture and to move things from storage units. Hopefully someday we will be a little more settled. In the move I have misplaced the cord that connects my camera to my computer so I kept thinking I would post when I located it and could also post some pictures. Whitney and Anne are both doing very well and seem to love the new house. Whitney's evaluation to transition from First Steps (early intervention) to the school system was last week. She went on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings from 9-11:30a.m. and she loved it. She did not skip a beat when I dropped her off and we received the evaluation report already. Her IEP (individualized educational plan) meeting to set goals for the coming school year will be Monday, June 13. Hopefully all will go well at this meeting :)

Hope everyone is doing well in "blogland"!!!

The face of a troublemaker

Hi, I'm Whitney. This is my teddy bear. Don't I look so sweet and innocent?
Look at this face - do I look like someone who would cause trouble or be naughty?
Yeah, actually I do - don't I???

Just wondering if anyone else has kids whose sole mission in life seems to be to "seek and destroy"???!!!
