Its been a whole year

Yep that's right, the title says it all doesn't it? I literally have been away for an entire year from my blog. WOW!!!! I can't believe I stayed away that long. Well since January 2013 my family really hasn't been doing much different. We have been working hard and struggling hard as well. My oldest son is now 5, our twin girls are now 2.5, and my youngest son is 1. Everyone is growing very well and its been amazing to see my children progress.

Alright now that the kids have been updated on to myself and my husband. My amazing husband has been having issues. I don't recall, although I'm pretty sure I have, if I ever explained everything going on with him and the daily issues we have been obliged to sort out.

My husband is 40 (sorry babe about announcing this to the world) and has some severe issues with his neck/back. He has what is known as Degenerative Disc Disease*. On top of this disease he also has some bulging disks in his neck as well. Due to all of these issues he has immense pain which he is unable to control with your normal OTC medications. As of late he has been on Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen also known as Norco. He has also been on Gabapentin. Plus he uses OTC sleep aids at night. So at the moment we are in the midst of getting him some type of treatment so that he is not in need of these medications. He just recently went in for Radiofrequency neurotomy *. It has been a week since he had this procedure done and although he is a bit sore he says that the actual pain that is caused from the disease and bulging disks are no longer really there anymore, which is great!

As for myself, well I turned 30, so that's one milestone. I have decided to "try" and write a book. I say try because as of late I haven't really written anything. Although I'm not sure if its just from lack of imagination, lack of ambition or just plain laziness. I have gotten may be a half of chapter written out and now am not sure if I want to scrap it and start fresh or not.

I have been sick for a total of about three weeks out of the last two months. Not sure what the deal is but I see my doctor this coming Wednesday, which is tomorrow. So I am hoping to get to the bottom of what ever the issue may be that is causing my immune system to be almost none existent.

This blog has literally not done a darn thing that I wanted it to do, ha ha. Or, rather I haven't done what I wanted with this blog. After all it is not the blogs fault that I don't get on here and write anything, it is my own. Although I am hoping to change that in the near future. Only time will tell.

Ta Ta For Now. Have a blessed day.

Update...to be back or not to be back

Well its been awhile since I have been on here. So since the last time i was on here i had our twins Teagan and Amelia. They came into this world on July 29th at 11:10 and 11:11pm Teagan was 6lbs 15oz and Amelia was 5lbs 5oz but you would never know that they were actually 5 weeks early. They didn't need any NICU time which was fabulous. They are now almost 18 months old and have a littler brother that came into the world this past December. We had our last addition to our family December 26th. Our fourth child and second son Ezra came into this world at 8:07am  at a whopping 11lbs 9oz  22inches long and he did end up needing some NICU time and for that he was flown down to UC Davis and he was there for five days. It was a horrific experience and one i do not plan on doing again. I will have to go into details soon about everything but my main reason for restarting my blog is one because a friend started her own which reminded me why i started mine to begin with. It was a way for me to release any feelings i had about any number of things and a way for people to see that yes christians do struggle but we still try to do right by the lord. As of right now I am not sure how often i will be on here but i did want to put up an update since ya never know who ends up running across these =) I hope to start feeling th eneed to write though but we shall see.
