Happy Thanksgiving

These two were the only two to let me take a picture of them before heading to the Davis Family Thanksgiving.

Touch my ice cream Aunt Nikki and I will bite you!!!

Please keep Ravens birth dads family in your prayers. His dad passed away this morning.

Even though Raven didn't know him, it still breaks my heart. It breaks my heart because now Raven will never get to know him.

We have chosen to have contact with certain family members and for those friendships I'm grateful for. We have also chosen not to have relationships with other members because they were toxic, but it doesn't mean that I wouldn't feel the same sadness and heart break if something was to happen to them.

Joe took all of the kids phones and tablets until 7 and he told them they need to enjoy each others company and bond with one another.

Nadia: well that's impossible besides we bond in my bedroom when we are playing in our tablets together.

These next pictures were of Joe's accident 16 years ago. I just wanted to preserve them since they are now fading.

November 08, 2016 HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARSON

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARSON

I can't believe that our baby is 8 years old.

He is now old enough to start scouts.

He is now old enough to be baptized a member of our church.

Speaking of scouts....

Tonight was Carson's first night of scouts and it was the Pine Wood Derby.

This is his cake.

From Grandma and Grandpa Davis

He has wanted one of these for awhile.

Took Raven to the ENT doctor and they cauterized her nose.

We are hoping that it helps, but so far she has had one bloody nose since we have been home.

Carson's treats for his class on Tuesday for his birthday.

I think Joe is having a bad day... First my migraine shot and now he made a plan explode in the oven. He went to add water to our turkey and the pan exploded. He thought he had heated the water enough but I guess not.
He went to get a rotisserie chicken

Went and saw Trolls for Carson's birthday and then he wanted Panda Express for lunch.

Grammy and Papa joined us.

Wind machine at the mall.

Raven got a second piercing in both ears.

Had my upper hole redone. The back of the hole grew over.

Quynsie got her cartilage pierced and boy did she think it was painful. This picture shows her shock really well. She has such tiny ears, they were not sure where to put it, but I think it turned out well.

 

Nadia got a second hole in both ears as well.

This is the map that I am doing for our place mat's for the Young Women's Evening in Excellence night coming up.

Took Raven to the ER today after school.

She had seven bloody noses yesterday and then two more today.

She has been feeling light headed and dizzy after each one.

The ER didn't really give us much help. They did do a blood work up and all of that came back normal.

After leaving the ER, I called the ENT doctor and got her scheduled for Monday to see what they will do about this problem.

Talking about Quynsie doing college classes during the next summer and Raven said do they have dorms?
Joe then asks why because you want to move out and then Raven said no so she can.

Organizing my room... Joe finally got my shelf up in the closet last night. As you can see, I'm excited to finally get this room organized. Living in disorganization for the past year and a half has me going crazy. Time to get things cleaned up and gone through. I have never been one to be completely organized but the mess we are in right now is out of control even for me.

Carson about Quynsie
Every time we come home she does a new hair do. It's annoying.

I went shopping with friends from the neighborhood.

We had a good time. We went up to the NPS store.

Carson Carson Carson, what am I going to do with you son?

Talked to his teacher today and she tells me this story that happened today...

So picture Carson laying on his back with his arms and feet in the air....you following this?
An aid walks in and says "Carson, get up in your chair. "
No response from Carson.
The aid, "Carson get up in your chair"
No response again
Then the aid asked him if he was awake.
Still no response
His teacher then walks over and says "Carson get in your chair"
Carson then gets up sits in his chair and pulls his book out and starts reading wit a smirk on his face.

He was playing dead and thought ur was funny to trick the aid.

Only one stitch left....by the way, this stitch did not last long.
