H has had a few rough weeks with all the bug bites he keeps getting |
Love the curls. I had wanted to cut his hair before we left on our trip yet he loves his hair as it is so we left it. |
We tried to get a picture of the kids on the rocks. Yes I was breaking the rule by putting the kids up there. All for a good shot! |

So we officially have two children who are potty trained. A little over a month ago Jaris got a really bad diaper rash and as such we decided to put him into his underwear, and since I really didi not want to have to clean up accidents all day long I pulled out the gum ball machine, the coins to put in it, and the chocolate and it was the right combination. With in a week Jaris was potty trained and with in two weeks he was also waking up dry in the morning. I am so over the moon about this. I had read an article that stated it can take some children on the spectrum up to 2 year to potty train and I was terrified that would be the road we would walk down. Needless to say I am so thankful that is not the road we are walking down. And the added bonus to Jaris waking up dry in the morning is that Kenzie has decided she wants to wear underwear through the night so she has all of a sudden stopped needing a pull up at night. We are down to one child who is in diapers. Yeah for dropping the amount of money we spend on diapers and wipes on a monthly basis.
We just finished round 3 of fertility medication and it was unsuccessful. I was thinking back and for the better part of the last 7 years I have been on fertility medications, pregnant, postpartum, going through miscarriages, pregnant, postpartum, and back on fertility medications. Talk about hormones like crazy. I know that there are some who think why is Leanne putting her body through all this again for a 4th child, they already have three children. Yes we have three beautiful miracles, and while we are more than okay if three is where we stop, and if God choses to bless our family with one or more children we would be over the moon about that as well. This fertility journey has had its twists and turns. It is a journey that has broken me many times, and yet I know God has been there to hold and carry me in those times. The children Jeral and I have been blessed with are all miracles. Miracles that I cannot fathom life with out. I truly am blessed.
