Happy 4th Birthday Carsyn!

Filed Under: Family, Parenting Tagged With: 4th birthday, birthday, carsyn

Dear Carsyn,

On this day 4 years ago you were born. It was a painful and long labor, but I was so thankful I was able to have a VBAC.  Life has not been the same since you entered this world. It may not be how I pictured our life, but I wouldn’t change a thing. You are such a sweet and happy boy. Most of the time you go with the flow, as long as you aren’t hungry. If you are hungry you definitely let us know. You love to eat.

Your favorite things right now are your iPad, Bubble Guppies, and listening to music at our church. We can not take you to your class without letting you listen to the music or you will freak out. You still love all kinds of different foods. I feel like you eat all day long. You went to school some this past year. I still can’t figure out if you liked it or not. Some days you would cry when we pulled up to school, but then you seemed fine afterwards.

This coming year is going to be a great year. We have gotten all kinds of new equipment for you lately. Thanks to the generosity of friends and family. New wheelchair and gait trainer. Along with the GoTo Seat & Upsee Harness. I think you will really enjoy all the mobility and freedom these things will bring you. You definitely want to be involved in everything your brother does, which is just awesome.

You bring so much joy to everyone around you. Carsyn, you are such a special boy and I am so thankful that God chose me to be your mom. I love you!

Happy 4th Birthday Carsyn!

Love,  Mom

    Happy Birthday to your Carsyn! I love your letter to Carsyn ~ what a beautiful idea to do that, it's something to look back on and re-experience the season, thoughts, and emotions. I'd love to do this for my kids as well, maybe give the letters to them when they're older, if they'd like.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.

Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.
