Life at the Zoo: Madie
http://tracieraitz.blogspot.com/2008/06/madie.html
Saturday, June 14, 2008. I put together Madie's exasaucer the other day and as you can see she is just big enough! She likes to try to eat the toys and looks at me wondering why they don't quite reach her mouth! I finally put the batteries in today and now the piano plays music and lights up. the base also makes noise but she isn't quite strong enough yet to make that work. Once her legs get a little longer and stronger though I have a feeling I will be sorry I put the batteries in! Life at the Zoo.

Life at the Zoo: August 2008
http://tracieraitz.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 28, 2008. What a crazy summer! The Raitz household had one crazy summer! I wish that meant we went to a lot of fun exciting places and that the kids will be talking about all the fun times for years to come! He was in the hospital for 2 nights and came home with an IV pic line that stayed for 2 weeks! I had to hook him up to IV meds every night! Never thought I would get nurse training! She was in the hospital for 2 nights as well but was able to come home on oral meds (no pic line!

Life at the Zoo: April 2008
http://tracieraitz.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 29, 2008. We finally did it! Mornings had become a battle ground for Bekah and I. I was always yelling at her to brush her hair and she was always telling me she had, except the big knots told me another story! I usually ended up brushing it and she ended up yelling and crying! Her comment the evening she got it cut was "mom my head isn't so heavy anymore! Bobby Jay and Madie Jean. She is now smiling at the older kids and Bobby especially loves it when he can get one from her!

Life at the Zoo: What happens when you combine 150 6th & 7th graders an 8 ft round inflatable ball and a a Youth Pastor? Part 2
http://tracieraitz.blogspot.com/2008/07/what-happens-when-you-combine-150-6th.html
Sunday, July 13, 2008. What happens when you combine 150 6th and 7th graders an 8 ft round inflatable ball and a a Youth Pastor? So Jay was having some pretty good pain last week in his ankle and friday it got pretty bad, so he went to the doctors and they removed the cast, pin and found an infection. They sent him home with a walking cast boot and an antiabotic. Sounds simple enough.stay off it as much as possible, take your meds and come back in two weeks. Wrong! Keep him in your prayers!

Uncle Jim: January 2009
http://thejamesdotcom.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 21, 2009. I don't know where to begin. Last Thursday I experienced something I never would have thought that i would. I watched my world burn before my eyes. It's a bit surreal to be honest. almost as if it didn't happen, but the burns on my arm and the memories I cannot seem to shake hold me in my reality. My brother and his family? The moment I dreaded arrived, my brother found me. I didn't want him to see me the way I was. I didn't want him to know that I, his younger brothe...I kno...
