Sleep eating

Poor Bubba Jo, He refuses to give up when he is tired. it is the cutest thing he will continue to eat, with head bobbing and eyes closed until sleep finally over takes him. When we see him do this we are watching so we can pull the plate away so he doesn't land in it. Thats my Boy who never gives in or never gives up! lol

Puppy play date

Jericho Came over for a play date with Chief. Jericho is huge! Chief is about 50 lbs at 4 months old and the big guy dwarfs him... i don't know what Jericho weighs but he is a tank. They had a ton of fun, jumping and playing. We took them both for a walk and man did we get some looks, people even stopped to tell us how beautiful the dogs were. All Julie and i need was matching outfits! hope everyone is well out in Blogger world!

First tooth is out!

Well Sam looks very different today, she has lost her first tooth. it came out on monday night and today is picture day at school! The tooth fairy was not allowed to take it! so she now has it in a plastic bag that is in a jar so no one can take it! it is to cute!

Mr Chief

So yes we have a new puppy if you can call a 3 month old 45 lbs a puppy! This is chief he is a Great Pyrenees . full grown he should about 150 lbs. I just love this breed they are lovable and cuddly. they are guardian dogs by trade. so they do not require a ton of exercise. they love to lay around and just be a friend! the kids love him he was actually Samantha's 6th birthday present. so if you see a polar bear around our family dont be alarmed it is just our lovable family pet chief!

No tooth fairy's allowed!

Well we are getting into the time of Samantha's life where she is going to lose her first tooth. She is excited about it because that means "im getting old like mommy" and she is excited about that. She will show everyone who will stop and look at her loose tooth. Then we told her about the tooth fairy, that she will leave quarters for every tooth she leaves under her pillow! Now if you know Samantha she is a princess so the thought of a fairy should be a good thing right.... ohh noo not with Sam, with the sternest look i have ever seen on her face she commanded " no tooth fairy"s will be allowed in my room"!! and she wouldn't just let it go at the proclamation! She has posted a "no tooth fairy allowed" sign on her bedroom door, and at each exit and entrance of both houses. Samantha has settled down about it but we can not take the signs down until she loses the first tooth to make sure the fairy knows not to come in. The washer and dryer delivery men delivered a new washer and dryer to the kids mom's house, the first word out of his mouth were " not a fan of they tooth fairy i see, does Santa have a chance" Time will only tell if the Easter bunny, Santa, and any other mythical people will be allowed in our house.

Decision 08! What does it mean to you?

I have to admit i an a political junky, i follow it very closely. i know i haven't posted in a while, but when life is going good i dont have much to say as i skip and smile through life. but i have something on my mind and i would like to here the opinions of the fellow bloggers here. please let me start by saying i am not trying to start a fight. let me show you something
this hit home for me! having developmently delayed children i want someone in washington who knows what that means! here is something from Senator McCain's speech that really spoke to me for many reasons. “I’m not running for president because I think I’m blessed with such personal greatness that history has anointed me to save our country in its hour of need. My country saved me. My country saved me, and I cannot forget it. And I will fight for her for as long as I draw breath, so help me God,” look at the last word in that statement. GOD for way to long government has been trying to take God out of our country! here is someone who on the biggest night on his political career acknowledges God! Is proud of his faith and does not hide it! If you heard Sara Palin"s speech she also makes references to God! this is something i can get excited about! along with the other qualities they have. Im excited for november! let me know your thought on it im interested to hear them.

update

Jensen Family update.
I will start with Samantha, She has finished up her last year of pre-K and come next year she will be in kindergarten. I can not believe she is that old already, it is funny how sometimes when i look at her she look like she is a teenager and the next she looks like a baby again. Samantha has made great progress with her developmental delays, so much so that she no longer qualifies for services. This may not sound like much but as a 3 year old she was a year and a half behind developmentally now as a 5 year old she has caught up and surpassed the typical age developmental milestones. I am so proud of her and her hard work and am amazed at what she has accomplished at such a young age whith so many cards stacked against her. only throught her will power and Gods will it was accomplished!

Bubba Jo, we are starting to see some good things with Bubba Jo, he is now doing more imitating , more toy appropriate play, has a full range of emotions, (at one time the only emotion he would show was happy) starting to use more letters of the alphabet in his babble, and now will copy the syllables word you ask him to say. Bubba has started the testing phase, what i mean is he wil start to do something he knows he shouldn't but just before he does it he stops and looks then does it and looks at you like what ya gona do about it! it is hilarious and very hard not to laugh. His new thing is licking the TV and he olny does it when he is around me. why i have no idea why. but he will stand at the TV and look at me stick his tongue out and slowly get closer to the TV. i tell him no he goes faster if i stand up he licks the screen from top to bottom and then turns and looks at me literally shrugs his shoulders and walks away. so he should be a blast as a teenager!

As for me, I'm good

bless all of you Mic
