1 week in

School has been in for 1 week.

Here is the book shelf that holds their books and SOME of their needs.  We have a bottom file cabinet full of the clay, paint and more needs.

 

Here is our Kindergartner and our Second grader.

 

 

He has gotten so tall lately.

 

As far as this one...

She has always been a tall one.

 

She has been so excited to tell everyone that she is home schooled now!

 

The next day Carys started preschool!

Can't believe my baby start her first year of preschool!

 

So excited!

But a little nervous and shy.

 

Sporting the cutest bag ever!

 

 Here she is at her school sign!

She had a wonderful first day.  Hope she continues to love it!

We have 3 kids and all have used different preschools! 

A few days later, Saturday was opening soccer day.

We had the Jamboree!

All teams play 3 mini games.

Aaron and I had to divide and conquer with both Ally and Jared playing.

We had games from 9:40 - 11:20.

I came with Jared, while Aaron went with Ally.

We met in the middle and  watched a few games together then divided up for the last set of games.

 

Jared played goalie for game 2.

The shirt and gloves were just a couple sizes too large.

 

Watching Ally's second game. Sorta!

Ally was nervous before her games. But from what I saw and what Aaron told me, she did great.

She even scored a goal!

 

She is always all smiles!

 

Not really sure what is happening here but it makes me chuckle.

 

Go get it AL!

It was fun and life is hectic, but I love watching them play sports and be with others their ages.   
Side note ~ Both kids are in black.  Kind of funny they ended up with the same color shirts, seeing that they are on different teams, and age leagues.




After the jamboree we ran home, got cleaned up and changed clothes and headed to Seattle Children's to see the newest baby in the family. I mentioned her in the last post, but haven't posted too much. We are waiting for many answers, but in the meantime saying lots of prayers and loving her.

 

This is Olivia May Peterson

She was born June 25 weighing 4 pounds 5 ounces.

She is now 2 months old and weighs just around 7 pounds.

 

She isn't in the NICU or PICU right now so the kids were able to go see and hold her for the first time.  Aaron and I saw her before, but were not able to hold her. While holding her you need to sit in a chair closest to her bed, due to tubes and chords, but that was fine.  I would stand if I had too! 

So here are some shots from that special day.
She has Peterson eyes!  Big and dark.

We had the kids waited until Lindsey got to the hospital before they held Livy.
Jared loved it.

So did Ally.

Carys didn't want to let her go.

Such a perfect little face.

 

More tests have ruled out certain things, but still no answers.  We know what it isn't but "what it is" would be more than welcomed! Thoughts and prayers are still welcomed please!
