I see some volunteer work in his future.</div>

Exhibit A...Camo was caught trying to feed the dog chocolate since she was not allowed at the party. And for the record I am not a mean person. The Team Leader has had a few relapses with her knees and counter-surfing for food so I decided this was the safest place for her. Camo actually crawled in with her at one point and requested a pillow and a blanket from my mom.</div>

When I was looking for pics there were about 10 of this exact shot of her holding a new-to-the-world Camo. Guess she was a wee bit excited! Hopefully I picked one that you love Mom!</div>

For those of you now stuck with the Steve Miller Band song stuck in your head after reading the title, I am somewhat sorry, but it was what came to mind. I did not mean to stretch out my posts to three months, but it has been C.R.A.Z.Y. at the Pope house. I am hoping that going forward my posts will be a little more frequent! Here is our first quarter of 2016 in review.</div>

It took 2 large moving trucks and a trailer to move us and all of our stuff to Katy. It was definitely different with the kids this time, but our wonderful family helped watch them so that we could pack and move with minimal disruption to the Little Popes and Team Leader. We love being closer to the Nutrition Nazi now!</div>

Cleaning is not my forte! Anyway here is a look at how we spent the last 3 months of 2015.</div>

Five years ago we threw our best party yet. It seems like only yesterday! Some of our closest friends and family traveled with us to Mexico to celebrate with us as we officially became Mr. & Mrs. Pope. Over these five years we have had many wonderful days with a few less-than-great days sprinkled in. There is no one else in this world that I would want to experience the journey beside. I am truly blessed to share my life with you! Here's a look back at the first five years and the amazing life we have shared so far!</div>

Just like our marriage there were only two options and obviously I chose to ride the crazy train with you! It's funny because people still to this day are shocked and appalled when you get on the dance floor.

Men don't think sometimes before they speak, especially when it comes to the context of their conversations with other men. I am certain that the Nutrition Nazi is rolling his eyes right about now, but all is fair in love and war. I hear him telling his friend this morning on the phone that I was hanging out doing my own thing, like I was getting dressed in my swimsuit with my ultra fit body to go sip mimosas by our imaginary pool while our well-behaved children played nicely with each other and the Team Leader. Nope there's absolutely no sarcasm to that last sentence. So let me show what has really been going on.</div>

In late January I took the Team Leader to a new vet closer to home and asked him to check her right rear leg because she occasionally limped after playing hard. The news was bad, but hopefully manageable with rehab. She had a partially torn ACL. The other option to rehab was to spend $4,000 re-engineering the knee and countless weeks rehabilitation. </div>

Bad luck hit a few weeks later when she fully tore the left rear knee compensating for the right partial tear. After meeting with the surgeons we started to get ready for the tough weeks ahead. The roughest part being that she would need to be crated for 6 weeks. Poor dog!</div>

She made it through the surgery and overnight stay with flying colors, although my nerves took a beating. I should have lost more weight with the amount of worrying and pacing I did waiting for her to come out of surgery and then come home the next day. She cam home with a small pharmacy of drugs and very rigorous rehab schedule.</div>

Less than 3 weeks after surgery she blew out the partially-torn right ACL. The surgeon had the tech come and tell me it was fully torn because she did not want to have to break the news. The surgeon and I discussed all the options and decided the next surgery would be immediate, and valuable reward points on my purchase to follow.</div>

Leading up to the surgery I was extremely nervous and feeling really bad for her. I knew exactly what was coming. I, nor The Team Leader, were looking forward to an additional six weeks of confinement added to the three weeks of time served. I forgot to mention she had to be walked three times a day for 10-15 minutes each time. I can't imagine how much she hated us for taking her for walks after surgery on each knee.</div>

The Nutrition Nazi and I got to go to the actual rodeo part a couple of times. I was trying to get a pic of the mutton bustin, but my phone did not want to cooperate on zooming in. I think Camo will love this event when he turns 5. He will be the one the sheep talk about afterwards!</div>

I saved this pic for last, because the biggest lesson we received at the rodeo was a reminder to always act with grace. So Little Pope wanted to ride the zebra, but started to freak out before the carousel started moving. I took him off and moved to another lower animal, but still no luck. A gentleman came up beside the zebra with the man sitting on the zebra in front of us the pic and asked if Little Pope was going to ride it. I told him I didn't think so and asked if he had someone who would like to ride it. He very politely told me that his special guy would really like to ride it. He handled the situation so calmly and walked behind the fence to stand with his wife. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They watched their child go around with all of the other children, but treated him with the respect of an adult. I am not certain I could ever handle this situation as gracefully if the roles were reversed. I spent the whole ride playing with Little Pope, but wondering if I handled the situation well. I was given the answer when the same gentleman handed me the remaining unused tickets on his ticket card as we exited the ride. And so grace bought Little Pope another ride on the beloved tractor ride!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope through my actions my wild, but sweet boys learn to handle situations like that with grace and dignity and reciprocate the same to others.</div>

I was able to snap a few pics of the setup before the party began. I am proud of myself for keeping true to my simple approach to this party. It may have had something to do with the Team Leader partially tearing one ACL and then fully blowing out the other ACL, but that is a completely separate post.</div>

Little Pope and I practiced for a few days on blowing out the candle so he could feel like he was part of the party too. I would sing the song and then he would blow with a little spit at the candle. As you can see he was not wanting to wait so I had to protect the candle until the right time.</div>

It's been a very interesting past couple of months for our house! Since my last post we have had several sicknesses including flu, sinus infections/ upper respiratory, and an ear infection. The biggest delay in my post is that we have been having internet issues. I think I had dial up internet in the 1990s that was quicker than our slow-to-non-existent internet. Finally everyone seems to be on the mend and the internet is finally fixed just in time to ring in 2015. So here is a recap of the last few months.</div>

Little Pope's school had a Harvest Festival and the local fire truck stopped by. My misguided husband mentioned that I picked out the best looking fireman (in the picture) to talk to and ask questions. Settle down NN it's not like I am hanging out at the fire station asking them to 'double check' the car seat installation! And we all know that I am marrying for money next time and he does not fit that bill!</div>

My mom was sweet enough to come get the boys early Halloween morning and take care of them so I did not get them sick and could rest. I missed them Halloween night, but they loved being at Grandma and Granddad's house and getting all kinds of extra attention.</div>

I am afraid to see our grocery bill once Camo starts to eat real food. He is already eating a pancake in addition to his bottle and cereal/fruit combo. He puts Little Pope to shame on the how much he eats!</div>

This is so true on a host of different levels. I have managed to lose myself and lower the importance of the exact day of the week, somewhat. While I have finally reached the point where I don't feel like I have to go back to work, that is not necessarily a good thing some days, because of things like remembering to post pics more than once a month! I have all these great ideas and then someone needs something, and fours hours later I have forgotten where I was going and for what! This is certainly the most challenging job I have ever held!</div>

Finally a family picture! For the record this pic was taken before last weekend's disaster and the emergence of Ryan Pickspatrick. I finally feel like I am settling into a routine of chaos, albeit, but still a routine. Watching the boys grow is priceless!</div>

So this past Monday my title and place of employment changed dramatically. I am now the Chief Chaos Manager at Pope Enterprises. I am still a little lost on my new schedule, but I love being able to be home with the kids. Since I am still finding my way, I am doing another update on all the Popes for this post, and just like my life right now it rambles, but bear with me.</div>

They are probably going to wonder why I took so many pics of them sleeping, but they look so sweet and I want to have it as evidence when they are 'remodeling' the house in a few years.

So why did I label this post Cheese you ask? Well about 4 days before we were set to welcome our second little one we were asked to appear in a commercial for the dealership where we bought my car. Neither of us were really certain what to think about it all, but it was a very unique experience. When we got there I gave very firm instructions that I only wanted to be filmed from waist up! I didn't realize how much of the commercial we would actually be in, and yes that is actually my ride that I get out of in the service area. For some reason they were unwilling to let me drive one of the expensive cars into service! You can check out the commercial by clicking on the link below labeled Audi Central Houston, and yes it is total cheese!</div>

My guess is that Little Pope is running his mouth endlessly in true Pope form to the Nutrition Nazi and his uncle. I am sure the Pope side considers this a genetic gift while the rest of the free world could use a little less chatter some days.</div>

I can't believe it has been almost a month since my last post, but then the title of this post is Managing Chaos it should not be breaking news. It seems over the past month one or both of my children has been sick or had some ailment requiring a trip to the doctor. I feel like there should be some type of rewards program at my pediatrician's office as much as I am there! So here is what we have been doing over the past month.</div>

Now I know some of you are searching your memory right now to figure out why these pics seem familiar. Well as many of you know our oldest son, Little Pope, was born at 33 weeks due to preeclampsia, and spent 3 weeks in the NICU getting healthy enough to come home. When I blogged about his arrival the posts included many of these same pics. The day he came home was one of the happiest days of my life. We were so thankful for the wonderful care he received and said good-bye to the wonderful NICU staff, or so we thought.<br />

With my second pregnancy there was so much more monitoring to make sure that the previous issues were headed off, including seeing a perinatal specialist. In January it was discovered that the baby had low amniotic fluid, and it continued to decrease until delivery. At my last appointment I was told that the baby had a 1% chance of any breathing issues by the perinatal specialist, and my OB told me that they were not having the neonatology group attend the delivery because they were hoping for a normal delivery.<br />

So Friday comes and we are so excited to meet our new little one. Everything seems to be going really well and I was super excited to get to hold Cameron. I wasn't sure how long it would take because Brady's delivery was not normal. The Nutrition Nazi was going between the baby and myself giving updates, and then about twenty minutes in I heard the words that broke my heart. My OB had been giving direction on how to help the baby because he was having some breathing issues, but when she asked the nurses to call the neonatologists my heart sank. Though everyone assured me the neonatologists were just going to try and suction him a little deeper and they would only have him for a few hours, I knew better. Unfortunately I, as well as our family, had been here before.<br />

I was basically inconsolable for the next couple of hours because I knew the battle that lie ahead in getting him home, and honestly did not want to re-live the experience, especially with a toddler at home. A few months ago I promised myself if I had to face the NICU ever again that I would be a force to be reckoned with, and I spent the days after Cameron's arrival making sure that everyone in the NICU was working for my son and not just going through the motions of their job each day. Cameron spent six days in the NICU while he worked on getting the excess fluid off of his lungs and learning to feed.<br />

We did, however, get a chance to re-connect with some of Little Pope's nurses. He apparently left an impression judging by the number of people that remembered him. Cameron was fortunate enough to have Tanya as his primary nurse as well, which was a ray of sunshine at a very difficult time.</div>

Like I said in the beginning the ending was ultimately happy, but the journey was not as smooth as we had hoped. We find closure in knowing that we will never be faced with the NICU again since Cameron is lovingly referred to as our Grand Finale. We feel very blessed to have our sweet little one home and thriving. All's well that ends well.</div>
