Catch'n up to do

Brookelyn sure loved to open gifts this year! Christmas Eve we stayed at Adam's mom's and brookelyn woke up at 3:00am and would not go back to bed, she must of known santa was coming!!! She's crazy!

Sledding with Emma and Elias at Grandma Wilcock's. Brookelyn loved this so much, but she wouldn't sit up, she layed on Elias and he just kept getting so mad at her. It was so funny! She threw such a fit when we took her off the sled!
Pooped out! The back of my car was filled with all of brookelyn's toys, all our bags and other stuff had to fit up front. Thanks grandmas and grandpas for all her wonderful fun fun gifts!


Dodge Ball Tourney!!! This was awesome, I didn't know they did stuff like this! Just remember the five D's Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge. ;)

MERRY CHRISTMAS

"Walkie Talkie"

We have a little "Walkie Talky" around our house now! Nurses refer to patients on the floor as "walkie talkies" when they are indepedent and can walk for them selves. She's such a big girl. This video was actually done a week ago, she's walking much better now!

Motorcycle

Hey, We're selling adam's motorcycle.... just trying to get the word out! Anyone interested?????
06' Honda Shadow Spirit, $4,400
Almost 11,000 miles on it
Looks great, rides great :)
We're gonna miss it!

It all started out like this.... carving pumpkins with our neighbors, the Jones's

Then, making cookies with emma and elias!! HMMM

A fun sleep over party, while their mommy and daddy was “going to pick up their new baby sister LaRynne at the hospital” as Emma says. Congrats jesse and esther!!

Saturday day morning we did the JDRF walk for diabetes for Becca. Adam and I had fun running it together.

Finally, we ended with a spooky Halloween night! I have to talk about adam, and brag, cause if you can’t tell by the picture, he was “the money you could be saving with Geico”. He has speakers in his pockets that played the geico theme song “it always feels like somebody’s watching me……” He never dresses up, so this was a huge deal and it was hilarious!!!

Brookelyn was the cutest this little witchy witch you’d ever seen, the only way she would keep her witch hat on was if she had a sucker in her mouth.  She loved them!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

BECCA’S HOPE

This is my beautiful sister-in-law Becca! (and Brookelyn. I think they look a lot alike.)

Becca has type 1 diabetes, it's an everyday life struggle, but to her just a lifestyle now.

But a hard life! And she is so brave and strong!

I admire Becca! I love Becca.

In the middle of the night, her mom wakes up several times and pricks becca's arm to test her blood sugar,

A lot of sleepless nights on Debby's part!

Throughout the whole day Becca pricks her arm again, drops a drop of blood on a strip and waits for the blood sugar results…

What can I eat today that won't make my blood sugar too high or too low?

If you're ever around becca you will hear from her mom….

Before breakfast….. Becca did you test?

Before lunch…. Becca did you test?

Before dinner…Becca did you test?

And always in between meals making sure her blood sugar isn't too high or too low.

Becca's been in the hospital one too many times fromUps and downs of diabetes.

Not a life for such a beautiful young women.

Diabetes never goes away, and very unpredictable, It's impossilbe to live a "normal" life with diabetes.

But if anyone can do it with a smile on her face, she can! But so much is being done now in the fight to diabetes,

So please help if you can by donating to jdrf.org and join us on the walk to cure diabetes on Oct. 31^st at tempe beach park!
