August in Review

Jackson:
He lost another tooth! Finally. And then he stole his sister blender drink when she had HFM and he got so many sores in his mouth. He literally wouldn't open his mouth at all. I had to force him to drink water.
So many struggles with Jack. He has been especially horrible about listening. He constantly has to be reigned in and it's always a fight. 

Emma:
Emma has another loose tooth. This girl was very excited to go camping but she has been continually challenging us at every turn with wanting to be in charge and questioning the reason behind every order.  Dan says that she has improved and in a way she has, but she still reverts to

Juliet:
She had HFM for like a solid week with the most awful sores in her mouth. We were home for like three weeks. She then decides to partially dislocate her wrist.... Lord help us! She fortunately started to improve before we made the trip to Fbx so we changed it to going to see the Lion King and ate at Denny's with the kids. This ended up being our anniversary weekend, but what are ya going to do? 

Fitness:
Fine. My elbow still hurts, but I have been making progress in the HSW, though my BMU as still stupid.


Health:
I have definitely been feeling better since I started the probiotics, though I still need to avoid bread and wheat products. I can't seem to lose any weight and I would guess that it's a hormone thing? Who knows.


Adventures:
We finally went camping. It was ok. We were going to go to Tangle Lakes and get blueberries, but heard that they were scarce and didn't want to freeze our butts off no good reason, so we went to Chena Lakes instead. So many people, loud people, people having sex right next to our tent... Like dude. I could have done without hearing you do that. Oh well. The kids had a good time and that was the reason for doing it anyway.
We has a family anniversary weekend where we went to the Lion King and Denny's which is not the most romantic thing in the world, but then we also went to the island the next weekend with just Jinni & Steven and that was fantastic. We stayed up really late and the northern lights were amazing! It was a very fun, beautiful night. It was relaxing and after all the stress of the summer, it was really good. 

Life:
We found out that Dan can do a house arrest arrangement at the Condo and it is only for 5 days, so that is good. He still won't be allowed into Canada without a special permit that we have to apply and pay for and he still has to have a misdemeanor on his record forever, but oh well.

Special Moments: 
We had a communion/foot washing service the other day and as I was washing Dan's feet, I realized how angry I was at him and how much I needed to let it go. It's hard. I don't want to let it go. I like feeling wronged, because then it gets the attention off of all the ways I am failing.

Goals: 
Lose 7 lbs. Ge my act together. Try to be a better mom/person. Sleep.


Thoughts: 
No thoughts as this is seriously late but oh well.
