Anyone want to help with paint? Mckmamma? anyone?

A cute pic

Makayla 15 1/2 month stats

woohoo No signs of Makayla being double jointed so less of a chance for Juvenile Rhuematoid Arthritis.(We could see Mack was dj at this age)Her stats are 79 cm or 31 inches tall/long and 10 kilos or 22 pounds.She is doing awesome and is no longer on the preemie/adjusted age watch list.I am so glad.She is eating regular foods and still on formula and we will keep her on it a bit longer.
This is from her april 15th checkup and Macks bday check up
bday (april 15th ) she was weighed and measured and she was 9.5 kilos (20 lbs) and
70cm (27 inches).Today she is 10.4 kilos(22pounds) and 76cm(30inches)
poor kid is playing catch up."So in total she has grown 4 inches since april Holy moly

Praying for Stellan

Instead of Not Me Monday I am praying for Stellan.He and his family can use all we can give.

Why

Today I am wondering WHY? Why do babies have to be sick?Why do we as parents have to be scared?
I read alot of blogs and one I like to read is Here
I dont even "know" Stellan and my heart breaks for them.Then there is Ari and so many more.To many for me to list.Please keep these children and families in your thoughts and prayers.

Just something that made me smile

see more Lolcats and funny pictures

New Bike

Mack learned to ride a two wheel bike a few weeks ago so we went and got her a big girl bike yesterday.She was so excited and since it was pouring down rain her bike "slept" inside.The sun is out for now so when she wakes up we will take some pics for Mimi and Poppi to see.Her plan is a bike ride with Daddy today.Pics to come soon.

Fell again

I fell again:(
Same knee gave out and down I went.At least this did not have any broken bones and did not require emergency surgery like march.I did have Makayla in my arms but she is fine.Me...well I have some bruises and soreness.I will be calling the dr monday to talk about knee replacement.

Stellan

If you are the praying type this little guy could use some and postive thoughts for the whole family.

Danish Geeks

My oldest daughter Desiree made this for me :)

Zoobies giveaway @babythings

email missie@babythings.dk with zoobies in the subject for a chance to win a zoobie of choice(that we have in stock)

I dont know who is telling who what in these.Is Mack telling Makayla about the water or is Makayla telling Mack to be quiet.

For all My online Friends

I found this and sent it to my BF but wanted to share it with everyone.
I had some free time, so what
did I do?
I checked the computer to see
if I'd heard from you.
I used to walk out to a box to
retrieve mail
But I'd rather get it instantly
than wait on the snail...
Checking my email is
always fun
I usually get a joke or
greeting from someone.
I feel so connected because
on the other end
I know I've discovered a
new found friend.
When I've had a hard day
and need to share
Here I can find a friend who
will listen and care.
And to this friend I hope
I let know
That I am always there for
them also.
Isn't it a strange kind of
bond we form?
It isn't exactly like the "norm"
But where is it written,
face to face we have to be
For you to be a very good
friend to me?
That little joke, or note, or
even just a simple
"Hi"
Could be like a ray of
sunshine from the sky.
So my online-pals ,
this is dedicated to you
For all the smiles you
have made anew
May our friendship
continue to grow
and the warmth we feel
continue to flow.

just a little why me

I have lupus and severe Rheumatoid Arthritis and a heart murmur.I am so sick and tired of feeling tired and blah.I know there are people both adults and children much worse off so I will whine and get over it.One dr stopped the Klexana(blood thinner) and the other wants to know why.I am on beta blockers and still have some arrhythmia but its better.I don't feel the "rolling" of my heart anymore but the rapid beating scares me.I cannot wait for the EKG to be over with and get this under control...My therapist has said no to PT since she is afraid I might have more trouble since the bones rub together but is sending me to water therapy instead(therapy is a result of walking across the room and a bone splintering off and having emergency knee surgery in march)

yesterday

We went to the mortage place for the house loan.Positive we will get it but waiting still kills me.I am looking at paint colors and promised not to paint orange again but am thinking of a deep redish color.If you want to help me decide on colors please do.It is raining again so off to clean some more

Not My Child Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Oh my gosh I could go on and on since I do have 6 kids but some of the most memorable ones(rather the ones I can remember at this time) are
My dear daughter Deanna(at age 15)did most certianly did NOT leave Mackenzie inside and go out of the hotel room and close the door to see if it would lock.All the while Mackenzie was strapped in the stroller and had the room key.This took place in Berlin Germany while Hubby and I were waiting for them to arrive at the restraunt.We still LOL about this today.
and surely my lovely little geek Mack did NOT watch my type my password and buy a really neat football game on my ipone for a small fortune..nope not my child who always minds me.This child also always always has clothes on..you would never see My child running around outside in her underwear.She has far to many clothes to be runnning around nekkid(with underpants on)most of the time.
and then I can recall a time when my oldest Desiree took a match and burned her hair because it sounded oh so cool( her words) because my child knows better than to play with fire.
anyhow thats what I remember from years past

Introducing my Blog

I am late doing this but wanted to join in.I am Missie and my blog is about the ins and outs of family life in denmark.I am from texas and have lived over seas for 8 years.We have 3 girls living at home and it makes for some interesting stories.

Just wanted to share

My dear friend Amy made these for me and my girls.I love them and I love her just as much.She is awesome.

Jels Viking Play

Every summer they have an outdoor play in Jelshere
We love going.You pack a picnic and enjoy the outdoor theater.This is the first year that Mack really enjoyed it and that Deanna understood what was being said.

Those Words

You know the ones you never want to hear when you have a baby in diapers....
I went downstairs early yesterday since it was quiet.I was surfing and working on the store when I heard those words..."Honey meet me in the bathroom because Stinky needs a shower".I was thinking she spilled her milk which she does alot but nope she removed her dirty diaper.I guess its a pretty good track record considering I have 6 kids and this has only happened 2 times.I hope it never ever happens again

Not Me Monday :)

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

I most certainly did not let my 6 year old play with my expensive camera and there would not be evidence of it floating around cyberspace NO not me !


alot of people thought it was cute and some asked if I was crazy..I vote crazy.I also did not ditch all housework for a parade and concerts on friday and sunday. Nope.Not.Me.Never! and last but least I did NOT snicker at MckMamma's laundry pic and say "hey that looks like mine" and for snickering I do apologize.
See you next week for more fun.

She loves to jump

So today on our outing they had little trampolines and she jumped and jumped and fell over a few times as well
