Ronin turns 5

-

 Ronin had a nerf gun war party at the church this year. We set up tables, bought a bunch of nerf bullets, and invited lots of kids to come run around the church gym and play war. He is starting to show he is left handed more each day and he loves to shoot his guns left handed and use his right eye for the sites. It's hilarious because he can't shoot anything.

Ronin is quick to do anything that he sees an older kid do. He desperately wants to hang out with all of Calvin's friends. He is really social and has a lot of friends already. He is really active and has the energy that Shelby did at this age. He wants to run around and play and help us work. Of all my kids, he is the first one to offer to help us do chores. He will grab a shovel, help clean up yard chores, he unloads the dishwasher every time, and he doesn't mind hard work. He is very coordinated and doesn't fall or crash very easily. He appears to be our tallest kid at this age and he hopes to outgrow everyone in our family.

June was the craziest month I have had in a long time. I am soooo glad it's July! Caleb almost didn't graduate on time and had to pay for summer term. He had one crown that he had to do twice because the lab kept messing it up. The school finally notified us three weeks after graduation that he was OK to graduate and could come checkout. We found out Caleb didn't pass his boards completely and now gets to fly down to California in August to re-do part of it. He has to fly two different patients down too with him, once he finds them. Hopefully he can find one patient that needs both procedures to help save costs. His job in Eugene didn't workout since he didn't pass his boards. They needed someone to start immediately, so they gave it to someone else. The company, Capital Dental, still considers him employed and is keeping his contract. So he still has work, we just have no idea where it will be right now. Hopefully it will be somewhere close to this house we j

Calvin had a bad day

I got a call at work from Krista, the lady who watches my kids. She said Calvin fell and hit his lip and probably needed stitches. I picked up my purse and ran out of work as quick as I could. I was on hold for 15 minutes trying to reach his doctor, which was aggravating. But once they answered I was at Krista's door and could see what was going on. Calvin was playing in a bedroom, tripped, and fell onto the frame of the bunkbed. Which is metal by the way. The sharp edge of it too. Poor kid always falls, but usually it's the forehead that gets the brunt of it. This time it was his lip. The upper part of his gums really. You can see most of the cut here: We finally reached his doctor and took him in. They didn't give him stitches even though it was still bleeding. It's been 8 hours now and it still bleeds when he talks, eats or drinks anything. It has not stopped him from doing his sound effects for cars and trucks so he spits blood everywhere. Of course, I wore
