Yep... That's right. Tyson is the proud owner of a REAL OFFICE at work! How Cool is that!? He has worked so hard he really deserves his own space :) We got to go to his office with him on memorial day to help set everything up and move his items from his cubicle to the new room with a view. One of the best parts was walking through the other offices and cubicles. Most of them were messy and crowded with circuit boards, wires, computers, etc.. and blank wall. But Tyson's cubicle and desk were clean and organized with pictures of our family on the walls and even a picture Cristine had drawn for him ;) This will make it so much easier to give reprimands, praise and give interviews for hiring in privacy.
I have been working on my gardening more this year and finally having some success! My biggest problem was the rain... not too much or too little over time, but when it does rain it DUMPS a LOT at one time, and last year it flooded my garden and everything died. So this year I am trying the "bucket method" or using two buckets - one inside the other. The top one has holes in the bottom for extra water to drain out and the bottom one has a hole 1" from the bottom in the side so Extra water drains out, it leaves 1" of water in the bottom for roots and allows a small space of air for roots as well. and it is AWESOME! I grew my tomatoes from seeds this year and I am already getting small green tomatoes on my big green plants. ;) I also dug out the grass in my front yard and we added a couple of trees and bushes. Fun!
Cristine made all A's this year in school. I think all the teachers at Cox Intermediate are excited to get her next year. She switches schools in the fall and becomes one of the big kids on the 5th grade campus. We went to a parent information night talking about the choices the kids have for classes. They get to choose either band, orchestra or art/ music. She was sure she wanted art/ music until she heard the orchestra. She said she loved it so much it may change her mind on what she wants to be someday! Wow! She has wanted to be a cowgirl since she was three so that is really saying something! She recently performed in her piano recital and did extremelly well. This girl has a gift for music and I love it!
Brooklyn is now eating Kiwi!! Well, so far for now. We were able to meet with Dr. Olive last week and get her set up in the Texas Childrens Eosinophilic Cinic. She will have her next Endoscopy on June 19th and then start the clinic on the 23rd. In the Clinic she will se the GI (Dr Olive), the allergist, the nutritionist, and dietician all together IN THE SAME ROOM AT THE SAME TIME! This is beyond awesome.. it's beawsome! This is where we will come up with a good detailed plan on how to get more food into her diet and eventually off her feeding tube.
Tanner turned 7 in april and is quite the handsome lad. He got a suit and it makes my heart melt to see him in it. We got some good pictures too but until I find my cord to connect the camera to the computer or I update with ty's i-pad then you all to get wait in suspense. He had a campout birthday with his friends. we set up a small tent for them to sleep in, in the front room and the boys got flashlights... yeah it was all they needed to declare it was the "bestest birthday ever!" He is ever a true little boy and even right now , as I type, teasing his sister with a frog he found outside. I hear little girl screams and little boy giggles.
Our birds and tortoise are still just pets but we think they are pretty fun and keep decorating their cages. I built a PVC tree for the birds and we put a pool full of dirt outside for the tortoise so she can dig and dig without getting lost.
That's our update from down south in Texas!!!
WE love y'all!
