8/3 Now this is twin loving! This has to be my favorite picture.

Notice the big boy undies!!

8/6 The kids have been sick since mid July. Ugh! They get the white t-shirt treatment when they are sick. Neither one can handle their secretions so they vomit all the time. Double UGH!! 

Tyler is a good big brother and helps Bailey watch the iPad while she takes her breathing treatment.

 

8/15 They really enjoyed drawing on this little castle. It is good therapy for Bailey's hands and great entertainment. It was not so entertaining to put it together and then getting the marker off of them. If I ever get another one it will be the simple house.

Not only did Bailey get it on her hands but she also got in on her face and glasses.

8/17 Tyler wanted to go see Troy Landry and his sons at the deer expo in Montgomery so he and Lee went this time by themselves. Applause from mom!! I couldn't think of any reason we needed to go.

8/19 Where did the summer go? It goes by so quickly. I was super ready for them to go to school. They were fighting all day and driving me insane.
First day of school

8/22 We went to orientation for the little kid's school. Grandaddy came up and went with me because Lee had to work. We sent them to a school that is super small and only has 4 in their class. While I know that the therapist thinks they need it for their speech, they don't have to worry about their lungs and health. Their school is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. On Tuesdays Wyatt will get speech from the public school system and Bailey will get speech, vision, OT and special ed. On Thursdays they continue to get OT for feeding with Rusty.

Poor Mac Mac! No wonder he tried to die by starving himself. He is always having someone bother him X4. Wyatt likes to share his soccer ball with him.

8/26 First day of school

Poor Wyatt had a rough hair day for his first day of school.

I left them with Wy man flying his plane. They were both happy and didn't even notice I was gone.

8/28 The second day of school

Bailey says "Yay" for school

June 2012 Part #2

I knew I had more pictures of our vacation. More boring pictures for everyone to see. LOL I forgot that the first part of the vacation was on another card.

June 2
Our first day in Gatlinburg
We tried a new cabin this time, and we were very disappointed. It said it sleeps 6-8 but that is a big fat story. The bed that the kids would have used was a pull out couch. It is hard to pull it out when a pool table is in the way. There was a sign not to move the pool table (not that we could have) so how can you count that as a bed?

Can you say busted? He is always doing something he isn't suppose to do. He is just like his big sister. Unfortunately, he models a lot of the things she says and the noises she makes. 

 6/3 We made good use of those season ticket to Dollywood.

 

All 4 kids loved the driving the old cars. We had to ride them several times. I can't wait to see if Wy and Bay are excited about them this year. 

Wyatt's first time driving the car. Don't you just love that hair? Poor fellow!

This is the only picture I have of Bailey driving her car. Lee rode with her every time. I just don't feel comfortable trying to get her out when the ride is over. She has no depth perception which I am sure is caused from the lack of peripheral vision. This means she doesn't help you get her out at all. She loved riding and was so very upset when she had to get out of the car. I really wish she could ride Dollywood's train, but it is an open, coal train. That is a definite no no due their lung issues. There are reminders of their lasting effects of prematurity everywhere. 

 

Now that is a good brother! Lee said he would probably be too big to ride with them this year and I reminded him that he would have to ride with them then. He hasn't said that again.

 

6/6 You know they didn't get to leave Gatlinburg without me getting a sign picture. I even tried to get them to go more than once. No one listened to me.
