April 14th dear diary we all started the new routine Ellen and I made breakfast while Madeline packed lunches for everyone but Zack the twins and I. While we did this Reggie and Sam got the other girls up and helped the 2 younger girls get dressed for the day. When it was time to leave Reggie Sam and Elsie dropped Ellen Clara and Ryan at the bust stop where Daniel met them. Ian Madeline and Emily were the last to leave as Emily is on spring break. They went to a local indoor pool so she could practice with Oliver. While they were gone Zack helped me get the twins dressed and ready for the day before his auntie took the 4 of us to the girls physical therapy and occupational therapy When we got home the speech therapist was waiting for us.

When all there therapies were done we met Emily Ian Madeline Sam Reggie and Elsie at 321 for lunch. Madeline and Ian then traded places with me for a couple hours so Zack and I could take Emily with us grocery shopping. When we got home we put everything away before Madeline started a quick crocpot of chili and Elsie and Reggie made corn bread. When Clara and Ellen got home we ate a quick dinner before we had a face time call with mom and dad. I am signing off as its my night to give the 4 youngest there baths as its Ellen's bowling night and Sam Reggie Madeline and Ian are at the park taking a walk.

April 25th dear diary sorry about not writing I have been super super busy handling everything around here. We all ended up with really bad colds that turned into ear sinus and throat infections so that was no fun. Emily lost her first tooth and has another one loose Clara wrapped up season 1 of fairy tale academy and finished filming Joss. Elsie had several events she made treats for and won 2 more competitions. Georgia and Gwen can each take 5 steps without falling on there tushes. We have been busy just keeping up with everything so tonight Zack's auntie Susie's mom and aunt Helen gave us the night off. Zack Ellen Reggie Sam Ian Madeline and I met the rest of the gang for dinner and a movie at a cool new theater that's also a restaurant. When the movie was over we had a quick treat at a local ice cream store before heading home and now I am relaxing tty tomorrow.

April 26th dear diary we spent all day at Emily's school sports day she did great she placed 3rd 2nd and 1st in track. She got 3 2nds in swimming and a 1st and 2 2nd place finishes in equestrian we are very very proud of her. Mom and dad were able to come as grandma and Ellen offered to sit with the boys. When the events were over we had a quick dinner before they needed to go back to the hospital. They took Emily with them as during her last jump she injured her elbow when she lost her balance coming over the jump. She didn't come off of splatter but manged to slam her elbow into the pole on the jump.

They had Ellen meet them in the emergency room along with Kate's mom as Oliver had hurt his ankle. They got back a couple minutes ago and she has fractured her elbow but doesn't need surgery. She is in a temporary splint till the swelling goes down I am signing off she is hurting and wont take her medicine so I am showing Madeline how to have her chase the taste away.

April 31st dear diary the last 5 days were busy Emily got her pink cast and feels so much better. She and Oliver who has a fractured ankle have been recovering in the family room with Madeline and Ian. I have been busy with the twins and all there therapies Clara has been busy filming sesame street. Elsie has been preparing for a special kids cupcake wars show where she and Luke are competing with adults for a cash prize. They along with Sam and Reggie are flying out to film the show in Boston. I am going to be really busy with the twins as they are both having surgery to release tight calf muscles the same day Clara has her hand surgery. They will all be in the kids hospital for 2 weeks so I wont write till the 20th of may.

May 20th dear diary we had a crazy last several weeks the youngest 3 girls all had surgery and were in the hospital for 2 weeks. They are all at home recovering now and are doing great so that's a good thing. Clara and Ryan are still filming sesame street they wrote in both there surgeries as Ryan had minor surgery on his right arm. The twins haven't liked not being able to move but other then being fussy there fine. The boys are 1 month old and weigh 3 pounds a piece. We saw them while the 3 youngest girls were inpatient and they are adorable and super duper tiny. Elsie hung out with Emily Madeline and Ian as I needed everyone else to help with the 3 youngest girls and drive us back and 4th. I am signing off its pain med time and that's not easy it takes 3 of us to medicate the twins.
