This is What it has Come to..

Our lives have changed over the last 6 weeks. We now have a "new normal" as I have mentioned a million times before. We are settling into a routine, of course just in time to have it all shook up by round two of Kellen's surgeries tomorrow, but a routine none the less.
When we flush Kellen we are in the bathroom a long time, usually with the door open. So yesterday Grandma Roblyer had sent the kids some mail for Valentines. They LOVE getting mail from Grandma and always wait to open it when they are together, it is very cute. The boys had been waiting for me and Mekenzie to get home from the eye doctor so when we walked in they wanted to open that package. Kellen was being flushed so without even thinking about it we all piled into the bathroom to open our cards and discuss our days ,(and what we were going to do with the $2 grandma sent, ice cream!!!!).
We all started to laugh when we realized we were gathered around the toilet to have our "family time". This is what life has become at the DeVoogd house. It was funny until Kellen decided he needed some privacy and told everyone to "get out" and "close the door". When everyone left his response, "Will I ever have privacy again"? All I could say is, "Probably not, Probably Not"!!
