After last week's post and nasty weather on Saturday and it got better as the week went on, then we hit today, April 5 and we are having a "wintry mix" BAH I am so very done with winter. I know it is barely spring but I am sick and tired of cold weather and all the winter precipitation it involves. OK, enough about that.
We finally got to have Rebekkah's birthday party. All the stomach flu is gone from our house, please Lord keep it that way!!! All of her friends were able to make it, which made her very happy. They ate cake and ice cream and then swam for two hours. My kids all slept really well on Friday night. Yesterday was good, William and I went to weigh in at church, we are doing the Weigh Down program. Then home and he got a visit from a nurse to show him how to check his own protime at home, kinda nice now he isn't running to the doctor so often. At least not for protime checks. The kids and I ran errands, I gave my step brother's girlfriend a masaage, she is 32 weeks pregnant and was most grateful I could help her back pain out. Then we headed to Target, we had been given internet coupons for free glasses for kids 12 and under. Picked out frames and then told we had to have the "original" coupon. Well, we left there without glasses and I was not a happy mama since I was told the coupon would work. I will never go back to Target for optical needs. Tried looking for Easter shoes for all four and pants for Nathaniel but was tired and irritated so we came home. William grilled steaks last night, YUMMY!! Woke this morning and Noah has a sore throat. UGH He is my one who is most suseptible to strep, so he may coming in to see me, ok the doctor, at the office this week. So, I spent all morning snuggling with him. William and the others went to church, then William and Rebekkah went to dance to practice for the father/daughter dance for recital. They got home and William and I had to run to WM for groceries for lunches this week and potty paper and other basic needs for a family of six.
Tomorrow is back to same ole, same ole. Sometimes I wonder if "normal" is where I really want to be. lol Seems like "normal" is too much fun for me.
Please pray for baby Stellan. He is still in SVT and in the PICU. He has now been there since March 22. His family is making more and more important decisions regarding his health every day. Continue to lift them up and pray for God's will and a miracle!!
