This kangaroo was so sweet and soft. He is a family pet that was "loaned" to a teacher at daddy's school. He travels in a diaper bag on his back. Its so sweet it made us all want a pet kangaroo -- except I wouldn't want to deal with the diapers. Carsen is going to come out of her's soon and I'll be diaper free for the first time in SEVEN years. Macey is still in pull-ups at night but that doesn't count, right?

The Jacksonville Rodeo has a "special needs" day at the end of their run where they invite the kids out to ride horses. This year the turn-out wasn't as much as expected so Lily and Carsen got to ride horses, too. It was a fun morning that Macey is still talking about a month later. ...
Macey is such a "pepaw's girl". This was at the fireworks in Bullard this year.

The girls are thrilled school has started back up but Carsen, I think, is a little lonely. We are really close to being finished on the house. Carsen is keeping me company as I complete the finishing touches. Today I paint the front door yellow. I'll put up some before and after pictures once we are finished. My husband has done an amazing job!!!!

Macey's acid reflux seems to finally be under control after numerous trips to Dallas and a scope. She is on two different meds and a restricted diet but doesn't seem to mind at all and never complains her tummy hurts anymore. We did take the pillows out from under her mattress (they were propping it up on one end) and the very next morning she was hurting and throwing up. Don't know if that was a coincidence or not but they pillows are back and we aren't taking any more chances.

OK - enough procrastinating. Off to paint the door.
