ER Visit once again

OK...this is just ridiculous! Yesterday Jake and Tate were playing and somehow she hit her
"va-ga-gay"(yes she will kill me for this one day). She said she hurt herself but never cried and we went on throughout our day. Last night my folks came for dinner and we had given the kids a bath and settled in to play a game when Tate went to the bathroom and came out complaining how bad it hurt to go to the restroom and there was blood! HELLO!!!!!!!!!! I stayed calm but was ready to cry and my mom and I took her to the clinic at the front of my neighborhood. ...God planted that clinic there just for us and I should have my own room there since I have been there with all three kids in the last 2 months! Anyway and luckily she just cut the inside and will be fine and needed no stitches! So...we are having issues in the bathroom but she was a little better this afternoon!

****One normal week PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about no pictures

My darn USB cord is broken UGH! I think Caden chewed on it and ripped it out of my camera! So....my camera has a very hard to find USB cable that I just bought for $50!!!!!!!!! I am gluing this one to me! Pictures to come soon!

What a Week

I am just laughing becuase I am delirious I think. I really have no control over my emotions right now I am that tired. Tate had asthma issues last week leaving me sleepless and Jake started up (has bronchitis) and poor thing has had roughly no sleep or crappy sleep for 4 nights. He coughs every breath. Today the meds kicked in and he is so much better I am praying he sleeps all night and does not make his nightly appearance in my room (he shows up to "cuddle with me" about 4AM every day). I have really felt bad for him he has slept with us and coughs ALL the time. I have not slept thnaks to that little fact. He went back to school today and asked me as I was leaving him "What if I miss you today?" My heart was aching as I left him. For one moment I wanted to scoop him and and run home and then reality hit and I pushed him in the door and fled!

Caden is also sick (of course). I took him in yesterday and of course was told it needs to take its course. (did not see my pediatrician of course) I wanted to scream becuase when that happens with him it is never good. So today at our ENT check up we find a bad ear infection and his poor cough kept him up all night! No sleep again! My ENT rocks! I truly have the best doctors around. Monday C and T had astham doctor appts. with Dr. Z HE ROCKS and later that day jake saw Dr. Taylor and yesterday caden was at the doctor and todat we saw our ENT Dr. Davis WHEW!!!! I hope we are done for awhile. She took one look at me and said who needs meds you are him I love her! I swear My ped, asthma doc and ENT should be invited to Sunday dinner. I see them more than my family! But...God has blessed me with awesome doctors who take great care of my kids who keep them well paid!

So here are some shots of two of them on the machine (couldn't manage a shot of caden who is on the most and two different types). I did get a picture od Cadne and me dancing in the kitchen amazing at how happy he is threw his coughing and snot!

I am going to Book Club tonight and am so thankful!!! I can say I am just thankful we do not have the flu like evry other household around here! Knock on wood!!

42 Bottles of Beer on the Wall

YES!!!! That is what I sang to Caden tonight to get him to sleep! and yep I started with 100! Caden and Tate now have to breathe twice a day (plus Caden has to also breathe a medicine for his lungs) on this new machine for their sinus's. I can say I have noticed a HUGE difference with caden and that is why I spend 15 minutes twice a day doing this! But, Caden HATES it. So...I sing and tonight he was extra tired from a bad nap and I had sung everything under the moon to him and "100 Bottles of Beer" popped in my head (probably becuase I could use 100 bottles of beer). He was asleep by 91 and Michael's cell phone rang UGH! But, he never cried and I kept singing. He then passed back out by 74 and Tate came crying at the stairs (is it a full moon under these clouds??) He finally was totally out by 42 but never cried as long as I sang!

I will make sure to tell them in the nursery at church to use that when he gets cranky!!
