Hurry Up...and Slow Down!

It's mid November, in case you're like me and have been too busy to stop and look at the calendar!

Our fall schedule has revolved around football, medical appointments, loads of homework, trying new soup recipes, attempting to keep the structure that wards off chaos, and looking for any opportunity to make everything fun.

I snagged a few of my favorite pix from my phone, and I wish they were all perfectly focused...but I usually have 1.2 nanoseconds to get the shot, good or not.  Nonetheless, they are great memories!

Playoffs, Kolton Tee's last football game.

The Fan Klub!

What to do when Mom forgets the sticks for caramel apples?  Easy peasy, use chopsticks!

I love it when the kids get off the bus and say, "Ohhhh, Mom's making candles!"

Daddy makes everything fun, even Kasidi's physical therapy!

We have 3 more kiddos who can now see the chalkboard, thanks to glasses!

We rock early morning doctor appointments!

Sunday Kenzie sang a song that touched my heart so!  God has truly gifted her!  Shhh, don't tell her I posted it ~
(it's blurry for a few seconds in the beginning, probably my camera focusing with all the kiddos hanging on my arms)

What are you up to this fall?

Something's Awry

Baby Joy has had her AFOs for almost two weeks!

She doesn't really want to walk :(

I don't know if it's that the shoes are 3 sizes too big, she's just not used to the appliances or what...but she does not want to walk.

Last week I noticed that when she does walk, her feet turn in, especially her left.

I didn't think much of it cuz I'm just ignorant like that.

But her therapist noticed it right away today!

We tried putting the shoes on the opposite feet and even taking off the left AFO...but there is a problem.

She told us to take the braces off asap and call the orthotist.

I see another trip to St. Louis on the horizon.

We are praying this is a 'simple fix.'
