Oh Geez

It's been a bit Kels and I am sorry that the kids and I haven't written anything in a bit. Here's a brief run down of what has happened since Brenna turned 2 whole hands :

• Dr Doom had to go meet his Nirvana. He developed Hemoganic (?SP) Cancer. A tumor developed on his liver and in addition to going into liver failure, it ruptured so he was bleeding internally. He was a good dog and we have learned a few things since his passing.
• He ate a lot of left overs
• I can't eat 2 French Bread Pizzas...he inevitably always got the second.
• Gunnar doesn't understand the permanence of death
• Odin not phased by it
• The house is a lot quieter without his jingling
• Spazz was apparently his biggest fan and still rolls on his old collar that is by the couch where he used to lay.
• Gunnar lost another tooth, so he's 5 bucks richer. He even took it out by himself like a big dude. He was terrified to tell Justin, just like he doesn't want to tell him about another wiggly jiggly.
• Odin has his first loose tooth. My BABY is growing up...must be time for another.
• Jaxom went to All District Band. The 6th grade band received a 4. So not great, but atleast it wasn't a 5, because at that point that score indicates that you should have just stayed home. True to band fashion, they were over an hour late arriving back at the school. This has resulted in the decision that on all future band trips, Jaxom will take his cell phone.
• Brenna is old enough to stay home by herself for short periods of time and loving it. I don't think that she will ever go anywhere with us again if she has the choice.
• Gunnar was denied an IEP, so our advocate is seeking and IEE.
• Brenna has scoliosis. Woot, like all great women do. She has started core exercises and is hating it!
• Jaxom's life has been pretty unremarkable, just wish that he would hurry up and start growing again, he and Brenna are almost the same height.
• Gunnar has been in the ER for the past 2 Thursdays running.
• Last Thursday he had an allergic reaction to something, we still don't know what...there will be another story about this later.
• Yesterday he passed out in gym, so that took about 20 years off my life with worry, we are still waiting on diagnosis from that one.

Ok deary, that's all I have for you today! I miss you super duper muchos!

Love you,

Sae
