Well It's July 30 we're back from Mi starting on the adventure for the new school year.

Amelia will be home with me this year hopefully things go well.  I know my MIL is trying to help but I feel like she wants to take over.  Not intentionally but still.  She keeps saying  things like well when I go over things with Amelia and I sit down and work with her I will be able to figure out where she is at and what I need to do to help her.
I know she is not tiring to take over but saying we instead of I would be better.

The new baby is getting bigger.  have a dr apt today and we will be able to find out what baby is.


Hopefully I can find a way to calm Maria and Dominic down before school starts in a couple of weeks.

Well I'm back again.  It seems like I do this for a bit than get busy and forget about it.

We are down to our last 9 days of school for the year.  Allot has happened.
We pulled Amelia and are working with her at home due to reading issues.  She is attending a place called Brain Balance where she is working on many different skills.  She loves it but it is taking a toll on Me.  I am driving to south Austin three days a week.  But it seems to be helping her, so it is worth it.

We have also changed out diet and have taken out a  Highfrutose corn syrup, artificial colors, flavor, and all additives it seems to be helping some the kids are still wild I'm a little afraid that we might have to go gluten free and see if that helps.

We have also found out that we are expecting our 8th child.  Were getting used to the idea but is has been hard since we planned all the rest of them,  This on was a bit of a surprise.  

I have to keep telling my self that God has a reason and amazing plans for this little person.  I'm just praying that God grants me the patience to thrive through this pregnancy and that baby waits till at least 37 weeks before arriving.  But I know that even if she/he doesn't that God will protect us both.

Also I'm going to try teaching myself not to yell so much.  I feel like all I do is yell most days and I  am really getting tired of it.  The kids are getting amiune to it and don't even bother to listen any more.  I have to find some way to get through to them so they will do what I need them to do  with out me having to yell and fuss at them all the time.


God Grant me patience to be able to handle all that you have blessed me with.
