Friday night'sTattoo night





























Friday nights have become tattoo night here in the Bishop home. We found some really cute tats and the kids absolutely love them! Well, I should say even the adults love them too! LOL This just may become a tradition here in this house!

Our baby girl




Well, it seems maybe I have kinda a knack for this..still time will tell. Our baby child,her name is Dynver Elizabeth Bishop 4yrs old. She is my cuddler and she is the baby(ya'll know what that means) She has pretty much everyone wrapped around her lil finger. She cries once and the kids will jump to make sure she's ok..if Im not where she is when she cries..mommy is in trouble with 3munchkins. One thing about her is she is very independent,pretty much like all of our children are. She will see one of the kids do something and she turns around and tries it herself..so far she hasn't followed Gavin..which is good. Her being my youngest and also a disability child(I hate that word,coz it makes her seem she's not capable of things..which is so not true) She was born with a 5 millimeter hole in her lower chamber of her heart(VSD) and had a stroke when she was 4months old..even tho the stroke happened on her speech side..the side where her left mobility is, took over her speech..so her left arm&leg doesn't function as ours does. She is going to have to wear a brace on her leg and her arm to get it to gain strength to hopefully function as it should. Dr's all say that she should be able to gain almost most of her ability back on the left. I have to say she is our lil "angel" child. As all of our munchkins are!

Our tough lil guy




Well 2down and 2 more to go on the munchkins. He is our youngest son,Gavin Tanner Bishop 5yrs old. There is so many things I could tell you about him. He is going to be our one child, for sure, that will have broken bones,bruises and probably other things happen to him. If something is challenging Gavin will try to do it. About 2months ago, he went and climbed Mom Bishop's apple tree, than yells "grandma come look and see what I did!" We have a nice pile of woodchips in our front yard, which he loves going down on his bike,one day he falls,he starts to cry than he gets back up and does it again. I think with this child Im probably going to get all my "white"hairs(cause I refuse to go gray!) from him. Everyday I wake up wondering what he's going to do next. Im sure in this site you'll read sometime of other things he has done. :-)

Our lil "mommy"







Ok my second blog..hmm this is getting pretty easy!Our oldest daughter is Sierra Meghan Bishop 6yrs old. She is "Ms Mommy 2". As a mommy she loves to boss...esp her younger and yea sometimes her older brother. I guess part of that is my fault,Im pretty particular on how things go and if they aren't we do them over. Sierra has picked up on that and she will go behind her siblings and make sure things are in order as her mommy likes. For example their bedroom: All the kids toys have a place, so as not to be cluttered. If the kids get a toy out or more than one toy,Sierra will say "now put it back where it belongs when your done,I don't want to have to pick up after you". Another example is when we are watching TV or a movie,and one of the kids start talking she will say "if you're not quiet you will have to go to your room and miss the movie". She is going to make a good "mommy" :-) She is also our lil "Tom-boy" she is determined that she's going to climb trees like her daddy...I just hope something else comes her way as opportunities..to change her mind. :-)

Our big boy




Im new at this and Im still not sure if this is something I'll be able to keep up with...not good at writing things down as much as I am at counseling. No that's not what I do..just one of the many things that ppl call and need to talk and advice...Im going to get a degree to do just this so it'll b extra money. Ok what is the format of doing a blog. I haven't got a clue so if I ramble or run from one story or the next..Im sure I'll get to my point sooner or later.

This being my first blog on my site.I guess I could tell ya'll about my lil munchkins and their many antics. :-) Cameron David Bishop 7yrs old, who is our oldest,of 4kids. Is a child that's too smart sometimes for his own good! Just recently he was reading an advertisement and there were things saying it was free...such as HBO&Starz w Comcast(our cable company) Note:that I just went and took it off our cable account cause the weather here has been getting warmer and warmer,so the kids need to go outside. Cameron doesn't seem to think so. So when he saw the advertisement saying "Free HBO&Starz" he came to me and said "mommy we can get it back on cause this said it's free, you don't have to pay any money!"Now how do u explain to a child that's already determined that he's right? Did the best I could to explain to him that not everything we read when it says free is free.So in his simple like mind he says "mommy than they're lying to us!" As the saying goes "out of the mouths of babes!"
