New addition to the Tuggle family


Guess what......we have a new addition to our family! Now I know right now you all think I am pregnant and are totally freaking out, but calm down. thats not it! We are the proud owners of a new beta fish named Dora. Luke went back to the eye doctor yesterday and we found out he needs glasses and possibly will have to patch as well. We get the glasses next week. I felt so bad for the little guy. We were on the way home and he had to poo-poo "real bad", so I wheeled into Pet Depot which happened to be the closest place with a bathroom. We were looking at the pets and Luke decided that should be his surprise for being so great at the doctor. He wanted a bunny, but I just couldn't do that. I figured a beta fish wouldn't be so bad. I am terrible with fish, but they had plenty that I'll be able to replace it with! She made it through the night, so maybe she will be ok. The boys love her and want to actually put the food in her mouth when we feed her. She has to stay on a high shelf and we take her down to talk to and feed her. I am just waiting to find poor Dora flopping in the floor or swimming in the toilet. We'll see.


Today was a fun day. Chad worked all day so me and the boys hung out. We went to Chick-Fil-A and to Walmart. I haven't had a nervous breakdown yet, so I am good! Wal-mart with those 3 will do it. We came home and played hide and seek. Luke tells you where to hide when he counts and he makes noises when he hides so you know where to look. Ian just tells you where the others are. I got 2 pieces of good news today. First the occupational therapist came to see Zeke again, and she was amazed at his progress. She said she didn't really think he even qualified for her services anymore. Yay Zeke! SHe is gonna see him 1 or 2 more times just to make surre all is well. The physical therapist is still gonna follow him for awhile at least until he's walking to keep a check on his foot. Next, I got a letter from the lawyer and it looks like the Board of adjustments wants to offer me a settlement to reimburse for medical expenses and mileage. It's not a ton of money but it will pay for a couple of grad classes. God is good and always works things out!

Putt-Putt


Well, I had another one of my great ideas! All 5 Tuggles should load up and go to Sonny's Fast Track to play putt-putt golf. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is a "family fun center". Of course that means that the Tuggles would have fun.......right!?! We di have fun, but I think it might be a while before we do it again. It was too long. The boys got bored after a few holes, and it was a million degrees. I ended up with about 75 mosquito bites also.
