Lauren: sorry for the misspelling... I mean Akeelah.... so sorry....
I forgot to comment I read an article in The New York's Time, this Sunday. The title was "Would you give drugs to your kids? " so it got my eye..... my hair stand up, and I have now several doubts and questions on my mind..... it states that ADHD medicines, are category 2 of drugs, in the same groups as morphine and cocaine, an as addictive, and the study talked about how much "prescribe drugs" are in school these days, and even some kids that don't need them are receiving them..... an some kids are using them intentionally to get better grades to enter a college..... not a good reading it seems.....

Lorena - I'm sorry for the dragging briefcase and hoping that the paycheck arrives soon. Hey, every little bit helps. I didn't see that article, but I had heard of high school/college students taking ADHD meds to stay awake in order to study. Sounds like some fun family time playing the Wii. Hope you get some decent weather your way to take Miss V to the Zoo:)
Some folks sure are passionate about their vehicles. I just need something that will take me from A to B. That's about as far as I'm traveling right now. However, I do dream often of that new car smell . . . aaaahhhh . . . Summer camp is going well. Mr. T is learning more songs and is happy to go:) That definitely makes it easier to drop him off in the morning. They are doing different countries each week in prep for the Olympics and right now it's Deutschland:) Too cute!

Lorena~ Sounds like you've had a wild week too! There are people who abuse meds just like there are people who abuse other things. As long as you're doing what you're suppose to with the meds and as perscribed then no worries!! My day has been full of birthday fun for my girl!!!  I'll have to blog about it later, but it was a great day! Thanks for all of the birthday wishes for both girls! I know there was fun in Heaven today too!! Tomorrow will be a huge continuation in Heaven as Akeelah celebrates her big day!

Tracy: I've actually been considering if it'd be possible to do one for angel mommas or something. Not sure how it'd work, but just an idea. Happy birthday wishes to Taylor and Ansley and big hugs to you!
Lauren: HA! I was a heathen till I started going again in December.
Lorena: I've got my high school reunion this weekend, after that not much plans till August when I'm going on a road trip! Aww, lil kiddos are so cute when they try to play video games!
Today started not so great, no hot water but I figured out how to get it started back up so I got a hot shower in the afternoon! Had the girls over for ladies night and had salsa chicken and lemon icebox cake, yum!! Elim actually let me sleep in this morning so I'm finally caught back on sleep from this past month, woohoo!

OMG, we have a plumber over right now checking our pipes and stuff and he just as the dreaded question, "How many kids do you guys have?" My heart just stopped for a second and heard hubby quickly say, "Two." The plumber just said, " We have three." Such a normal question, but forever hard to answer.

Lindsay - Such an innocent question but heartwrenching at the same time.  Tracy - Woohoo on your classes being done! Lorena - Enjoy your 2 weeks of downtime.  And yup, I love my Chrysler and I'll shout if from the rooftops. (I'd gladly accept payment for that too, but I don't think it will happen) Katie - I missed news about the flood... near your house, or where you are traveling? Stacy - way to go with the water heater! Seems like everything that breaks around here is not an easy fix.  So I picked up my new car last night - it's very cool. The kids watched a DVD on the way home from the dealer and I plan to spend some time playing around in it today.

Tracy: Hugs, I'm sorry it was a rough day yesterday, I'd say I hope it gets better but I know better. YAY done!!!
Katie: Glad to hear that you were able to escape the flooding! I heard that road by the gulf was flooded, but my Aunt and Uncle that live in the area were ok last I heard too.
Jackie: Nope, I had a cold water shower yesterday morning again! He thinks it was maybe having the door to the attic open creating a draft when the garage door is opened so he shut it. I had hot water this morning so here's to hoping that's all it was!
Much better night of sleep tonight than last, even though I was up for an hour with him. He would fall asleep then throw his hand up and start signing milk out of the blue, little stink! Lol, but kinda cute at the same time!

Katie - Lots of water down there. Glad to hear your place is dry.
Stacy - Good that you had some hot water for that shower and got some better sleep.
Plumber didn't find anything major yesterday. I'm relieved! I guess we got a good water heater nine years ago. We're not using as much hot water in the summer months obviously. Keeping it cheap people, keeping it cheap.

Oh...Jackie!!! A new car!!! I love a new car!!! (not so much the payments, but a new car) I'll speak for Katie---the flooding was in FL...NOT where she is now..... I can say that, cause she's not far from me right now!! Stacy~ Cold showers!! Not fun!!! Well....unless you're on the beach and just rinsing sand away!  Yay for better sleep too! Can ya'll see me doing the happy dance??? I'm done with school!!! I'm done with school!!!! I'm done with school!!!!! Technically, one of my professors could pull that rug out from under me by making me take a final due by midnight, but he said that if we had an overall average of 97 or higher that he wouldn't make us take the final. Last week we did.....no word from him today so I think we're clear!!! Okay--house is a wreck, laundry to be done, and decisions, decisions on an upcoming vacation. Okay---let's get real, I'm more worried about my dog behaving for his sitter than what I'm going to pack!

Come to ShareUnion 2012: It's the BEST weekend ever!!! |
|

Augh - it's been a busy few days for us. Yesterday Matt's dad had major surgery, it went really well but we were all at the hospital for 10 hours by the time we were finally leaving. I came home and convinced nathan to put his pajamas on (it wasn't even 5pm yet) and watch cartoons from bed with me: Mother of the Year!!! At one point I feel asleep and he woke me up by opening my eye and asking why I had my eyes closed Katie, so glad you escaped the flooding! Jackie, I'm a little jealous that all the T&C now come with DVD standard, we bought one year too early for that. We had one put in though and the boys LOVE it for long car rides. I also love the stow&go - it's a good place to store kid stuff. Stacy, so glad you're all caught up on sleep. It's always nice when they let us sleep in. Ugh, I had more but the boys are resting and I now hear little feet upstairs. Better go check it out....

Hi people!! How I've missed you guys!! Why did I ever think summer would settle life down? Ugh!! I won't even try to promise I'll be here more. Dance isn't ending this year, and neither is soccer. And we leave next Friday for Yellowstone, BUT I have been able to hang out with Mrs. Lesh the past couple days. Loving it!
What's going on with everyone? What have I missed? Are ya'll still speaking to me? lol

I miss all my peeps who are scattered all across the country as most of us are sweating it out literally this week. It was 99 here yesterday needless to say no outside yesterday afternoon.
I wanted to say to all my pregnant ladies on here. Keep it up. I am praying for safe, full term and healthy babies for all of you.
My little Maddie is 2 and half on July 4th. I am not sure where the time went but it is flying. She just jabbers non-stop.
MISS YOU ALL TONS! How many days left till SU?

Lauren - love ya!!
Been such a good week here, outside of the goodbyes to my parents and to Julie & Riley (Mr. Julie too). Finishing off on a high note - the diamond from my wedding ring is finally being replaced. Wahoooo!! Six weeks without it - ICK! Met with the jeweler this morning to choose the stone and I will have it before we leave for Yellowstone next week. Yay!

So I spend the day with my princess, we did all she likes, but first I took her for her first haircut in her life....... then her favorite restaurant (thank God it is not Chuck E. Cheese), we went looking in toy stores, and ice cream, some children library, and buying some clothes for her...... we had a great day..... I think we should do it more often, but I am exhausted.....
Happy Weekend everyone,

Lorena: Aww, what a cute haircut!! Update from Lauren: At her NST today her uterus was all sorts of showing out and having contractions and her BP was high too so she's won at least an overnight stay over on Oahu for monitoring. Her cervix is unchanged even with the contractions. She can't update herself because her phone is about dead and doesn't have her charger since she wasn't planning on staying! Give her some good no June baby whammies! Had my high school reunion, it was....eh. Best question of the night was, "Hey Stacy! How are the twins doing?" Um, still dead, thanks If you're not laughing, you're crying, lol!
