The Child Whisperer, Carol Tuttle's new book

The Child Whisperer, by Carol Tuttle

For those of you who are familiar with energy profiling, and Dressing Your Truth, The Child Whisperer will build on the knowledge you have, and help you make more sense than ever on how to help your children be true to their nature.

For everyone else, if you have kids, you need to read this book. Have you ever wondered if there was a “way” to raise your children? Well, as you already know, each of your kids is different. The tricks or methods you used to help teach, or discipline, one of them rarely, if ever, works the same way on different children. Each child comes with different quirks and personalities, and each one of those things makes them wonderful and unique. But at the exact same time, each one of your children comes with unique and perplexing difficulties.

The Child Whisperer is a unique book. It takes what you know about your children, and helps you create a roadmap for each one. It allows you to get inside each child’s head, or rather their nature. 

If you’ve ever wondered why one of your children seems more reserved, or willing to obey you, while the next one seems to bounce off the walls, exuding enough energy to arm a nuclear bomb, you are most definitely not alone. The wonderful thing about Carol Tuttle’s book is that is equips you with the ability to identify your child’s nature, what makes them tick, and how to help them live true to who they are. 

There are four basic types of energy, and each person predominantly lives their live, whether they know it or not, around one of these types. Each type of energy processes thoughts differently, reacts differently to any given situation, and even loves differently. The Child Whisperer will first help you identify which energy type your child is, and then it will give you suggestions and tips on how to help that child learn and act in ways that honor who he or she is.

This book is so helpful you can’t not read it. I read it, and already I have been able to see a difference in my children. They are happier, and I am happier.

DU Hockey - Opening Night

Welcome to Magness Arena. That's the DU goalie. He had a solid night, only letting one goal get in. This was our (Gwen and I), first ever live hockey game.

We had a grand old time. A co-worker of mine said her father, who has season tickets, gave her a couple of hockey tickets, but she was not going to use them. She asked if I wanted them and I gave her a tentative yes, and promptly called Gwen ... who promptly said yes.

I texted the babysitter ... who promptly said yes.

SCORE!

Notice the goalie in this picture is a little bit smaller than the one above? Well, this is pee-wee hockey. It was really fun. No goals were scored, but that little goalie did make a nice save. The kids followed the puck like a bunch of little bees. It was great.

 We didn't know what to expect, our only real hockey experience coming from Disney "Mighty Ducks" movies ... needless to say, this is a fun spectator sport. People were getting slammed into the walls, punched, pushed around ... I'm just going to be frank with you: I was only disapointed about one thing ... that both benches didn't clear in a fight. That would have capped off an otherwise awesome night.

We even learned stuff about hockey.

You can just make out the scoreboard here. At the time it was 1-0, DU was up. The final score was 5-1. DU won.

The highlight of the night was really just unsportsmanlike conduct ... but hey, it was ESPN worthy.

DU was flying down the ice with the puck, a four on three advantage. The center whipped the puck to the wing, drawing one defender to the side. The wing faked a shot, getting his defender to hesitate a little bit, and the shot a pass up the middle to his charging teammate who secured the puck and shot it in one fluid motion, to the goalie's stick side.

Deflected.

The puck shot back and another DU forward shot it, as all three defenders, and all four DU players converged ... the goalie reached out and caught the puck. The whistle blew.

As the scrum was getting cleaned up, a DU player shoved one of his opponents forward. He tripped over the goalie, and flew, face first in to his own goal. It was a thing of beauty.

Foster care!

We got our first placement on Friday. He is an adorable 5 month old, really easy going, talkative, and giggly. We haven't determined yet if he is type one or type two...Carol Tuttle we need your help! The girls have been loving him over the top. Emma said she would like two babies now. I believe it's because I don't let her do literally everything for him. They have all been great helpers though!

Red Robin

                                                                       Beautiful I know!

 One of our favorite treats from Red Robin is the root beer floats! I had never been to Red Robin till I met Randall's family in Washington. And now it is one of my favorite places to go. This too was a while ago, but its never to late to post!

Camping

              I totally for got to put these pictures up from this summer when we went camping!
We had some yummy food as you can see! above is what is called a pocket pie, Yummo.

 Lana found some charcoal and was coloring with it, and as any artist gets involved in their work she neglected to not touch her face.

 Maddy hard at work tearing down camp. It was worth it to them, b/c the reward was a ride in the wheelbarrow when you unloaded it!
