Daniel and genetics

Ok so our last visit to the genetics doctor went really well. Dr. Gibson spent 2.5 hours with us going over everything. Stuff from what the last doctor looked for to family history to what he was going to look for and why and then gave Daniel a complete physical. He seems like he knows what he is doing and I have heard great things about him. The last set of tests results have come back with one positive result for Fragile X, I had to go give blood to confirm, we will those results in about 3 weeks. I will keep everyone updated. I'm not sure what to think, a lot of it fits and some of it doesn't. All the information I have gathered I read by searching for it on the internet. And even though I'm not sure that's what it is, I do feel like we are one step closer to figuring out this puzzle! And I am relieved that I was the one who had to be poked and not him, he's been poked too many times.
He also has been using a reverse walker to get around school, church and when we go out places and it is helping so much! He loves it and he can go pretty fast now, plus when going down ramps he lifts his feet and rolls, which is scary for me, but fun for him. He is such a special soul, I can't believe I get to be his mom. Well I think that's about it for now!

A Little Update

So I have decided to finish school online and go to be an Elementary School teacher. I have trying to decide for years. I love little kids and if I had to work I would want to be able to only work while my kids are in school. I am excited to be starting school again, I have been feeling a bit lost these last few months. I start march 1st and I am really excited!

Emma Lost her first tooth.

Since then she has lost her second tooth but here is her toothy smile!

Halloween!

Our New Addition

We got a new Puppy! Her name is Tika, anyone who has read the Dragon Lance series will know the reference. lol She fits right into our family and is very laid back and mellow. We had promised the kids we would get a puppy when we got here and the moment we arrived they started asking where she was. We got her the weekend we moved in and it has been a great experience. She is a miniature Dachshund and will only reach 11 lbs. So far I would highly recommend Dachshunds to someone wanting a small dog but not the yipping that typically goes along with them. She is a sweet heart and has us all in love with her.

Graduation Day

It is finally over, the chapter in our lives where we live on student loans, and never see each other. We did it, we made it through college. Beau has now graduated with a Bachelors in Computer Engineering a degree that when he started he was afraid he wasn't going to be smart enough to do it. He aced it with straight A's and was the only one this semester with his degree. There are usually only 2-4 student in his upper level classes. He is an amazing provider and works so hard to make time for us. I am so proud of my husband and all he has accomplished.

I Have now graduated with an Associate's Degree in General Studies(that is all BYUI offers) with a minor in Child Development. It was super scary to go back to school and I wasn't sure I could do it, but I took a leap of faith and did it. I am now trying to decide if I want to finish school, or go to Beauty School this Fall. I guess only time will tell. For now I just want to be a mom and A Independent Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay.I don't really know what I want to be, so it's hard to pick just one thing.
I tried to add pictures to go aloong with it but it wouldn't work so check out Facebook.
