so lets catch up in the life of one Crystal Nichole Ontis....
my grandpa seems to be doing well again...he is lucid again and seems to know everyone just fine. must have been the meds he was on and now isnt. his insurance has run out though and we are fighting like mad to get him some medicade to help pick up the bill at the home...he's getting a little physical therepy on his hip, not as much as he should though since the insurance is gone.
kaila won her art contest and banner contest which is a huge thing for her...cant even begin to say how proud we are!!
bradley turned 8 and we had a nice family weekend with him. birthday weekends are very special here since the kids arnt here all the time the whole weekend is theirs...whatever they want to eat for dinner, they pick out their cake, whatever games they want to play or tv they want to watch and to make them feel super special the rest of the family pitches in to do their chores. i hope bradley felt as special as he is to us. we love that little guy!!
elizabeth...she has been amazing me left and right lately...she is growing so fast and talking so well. she recognizes her name now adn is getting to where she understands a little that others have the same name...elizabeth mcfarlen is a morning anchor on the Today show and when liz hears her name she says "no i elizabeth" and i explain so is she...ive never seen a two year old so into reading too. i swear we have read each of her books 100 times!!! she has a whole book shelf all to herself and her books and not only book but magazines too...she will sit in a chair with her "mickey" (blanky) and read a magazine from cover to cover...she loves my parenting and kaila's oriental trading magazines the best! on road trips as long as there are books in the car she is all set!!
next week is spring break for kaila and we are thinking of going to my sisters house!!! we were thinking of going to kalamazoo but todd really wants to hook up with some of his new found brothers and sisters in the detroit area now that he has a couple days to do so. he has been so busy lately and gone a lot...it will be nice to reconnect with family and ours to boot!!
i love my sister cynthia!! she is the best...not only does she resemble our mother so when i see her i get a little memory burst but she loves todd and our kids with a huge, open, loving heart!! she has welcomed him and bradley with open arms and that is AWSOME!!! wish i could say that for his family about us...oh well though...we have the zellers and vaughns on that side...thats all we need!!
i hope to see my lil sister hannah too that week, not sure though she may be going to disney world with a friend...this girl goes EVERYWHERE!! she goes to cedar point at least like 3 times a year and florida all the time too...can i say JELOUS...yup!! i just did!! lol but if she doesnt go i am definelty fitting in some hannah time becuase i miss her so much too...family is everything people remember that...
well thats the latest...till next time my "followers" have a great week!!
