Update & Some Silliness

First of all- thank you all for your prayers for my Grandpa and Grandma. My Grandpa woke up Saturday morning and his leg felt better so he said he was not going to the emergency room. The family respected his decision. Monday he went in for blood work and things looked good. He went to a doctor's appointment and was told that the charlie-horse like pain was, more than likely, a side effect of his cortisone shot. If he experiences the pain again they have to keep an eye on it and make sure that it does not feel warm as that could indicate a blood clot. So, for now, everything sounds good! Praise the Lord!

Cali started something new today that almost had me in cardiac arrest. I turned my back and saw that she was on the couch!!! So we have officially added a new monkey to our zoo!!! I keep taking her down and she keeps climbing back up! So, Kyle and I stacked pillows on the floor all around the sofa in hopes she would have a soft place to land if she fell. Aahhhhh! My arms and back are so sore today from removing her multiple times! I should look like Hercules pretty soon.
After awhile she felt defeated and steered away from the sofa....................and found a new place to climb....................

Still not the safest thing but it is much lower to the ground at least!!

She was shaking her body back and forth trying to get the truck to move so big brother stepped in and pushed her around. She had a ball!
After I laid Cali down for a nap I came back out to the living room to find Kyle and Bella playing with the camera. When I downloaded the card onto the computer I laughed hysterically.

They had had a pretty good time it looks like!!

Now, once I get a new camera the kids won't be using it, but this camera is on it's last leg anyway. The screen turns black every 4 or 5 pictures and I have to give it to Kyle to let him work his magic- he is the only one who can get it to work again!! Maybe the old camera should be passed down to Kyle. He seems to enjoy being a photographer...........and being photographed!!!
Have a great Day!
Blessings,
Heather:)
