I am arguably the busiest mommy in America. I have a wonderful husband, William that I married in 1998. I have 3 beautiful kids. Sean, my oldest was born in 2002 and has autism. My second, Katy was born in 2003 and was born with what we think is Cornelia deLange Syndrome J.D. is my baby and he was born in 2006 and seems to be right on target with development and is quite the mommy lover. My life is full and blessed beyond measure.

Real Families Real Answers Update
The crew that came to film us for the documentary has updated their blog and we are on there right now. I really cry when I think about what an awesome opportunity this is to tell the world about my blessed Jesus and how he holds us up and is the source of this unstoppable joy that we have as a family. Stay tuned for more updates about the documentary as they come available.

Sorry it has been so long since I last posted.
It is just the average busy stuff we do all the time getting in my way. Lets see, what has happened lately?
Sean lost his first tooth and got 75 cents from the tooth fairy. He bought a Dr. Pepper out of the soda machine at church with it. And what is hilarious is that he drew a picture of a soda can, taped it to the washing machine, pulls out the detergent dispenser to put money in and pulls out a soda that he put in there. So now I have to watch for money and soda in the washer.
My dishwasher died and I got a new one and it is awesome, no rinsing or rewashing, yippee! But we tore up the flooring in the kitchen removing the old one and putting in the new one. So I guess our next task is to redo the flooring.
We are broke as usual and have no idea what the budget for Christmas is going to look like. I would love to start my shopping and wrapping now, but with no money and no idea how much William's Profit Sharing Payout is going to be, it will have to wait and it is driving me nuts. I made a list with everyone we intend to buy for and some ideas on what to get, that made me feel a little better about it all.
I do have some yummy holiday recipes converted to our dietary needs so we'll just have to see how they turn out. I can't have milk and soy. William can't have sugar and is extremely picky. Sean can't have milk, soy, gluten(wheat, oats, barley, rye and spelt), red food coloring and cured meats. Katy can't have milk, soy, corn, eggs and oranges and only eats purees. J.D. is starting to show some subtle signs of food allergy, but I haven't out what to yet. I will try to eliminate cow milk first since it is the most likely culprit. That won't be hard to do in my house.
