Tomorrow we are going up to Bens Brothers house. they offered to watch the kids while Ben an i go to dinner. Well that wont fly with Abigail and Matthew would be very iffy. So me, ben, mathew and Abbie are going to dinner. If Thomas was here he could watch Abbie at there house and all would be good but he's in Springdale on a mission trip building handicap ramps till Fri. So we'll take what we can get.

Abbie had her shots today. Poor baby. She weighs 19.5 #'s is 27 1/4 inches tall and i dont recall what her head measured but she was 90% on her head, height and weight. She doesnt like the Dr at all. She cried the whole time, but the other kids love him. She did preety good with the shots. She started crying the second I put her on the table and stopped the sec i picked her up. No more shots till she's 1 yr old, yea.

Rainy day!!

Well, since the cleaning fairy didnt show up in the middle of the night and clean my house for me I think I'm going to take advantage of this rainy day and CLEAN my house and then we are going to make popcorn and watch a movie. YEA!! except Code does have a ball game, but if this rain hangs around i see it being cancelled

Don't know what to think

My sister called. My mom is real sick. She just keeps throwing up she has lost 11 #'s before that she was gaining a pound or so a week. He's supose to call with her ct results today, but he has also ordered a CT of her brain to see if it has spread to her brain. He said her vomiting is not the chemo. She is actually on a 3 week break from chemo. Her last one was monday and with today being thursday she is normally over the nausea and on to her sleep catch up.I leave july 12th to see her for a week. I wish i was there now. I wish i could just go be with her.

Ben and his celeb friends ;o)

Here is Ben with everybodys favorite celeb, SHREK!!!!!!

Shrek gave Ben some Shrek ears for the kids

Here is is with Weeman from the show Jack@$$, Ben said he's a pretty cool guy

Pink eye

SUCKS!!!! I have it in my rt eye. I have had it since Sunday. I went to the Dr's on tues and he said the most are caused by virus than bacteria, but he gave me eye drops anyway to help keep my eye lubricated. SOme times during the day I feel like ripping my eye out, it's driving me up the wall. Ben had brought home some drops for pink eye relief and they do get it to calm down. I cant wait until it's gone. I hope no one else gets it.

PDMD

What is that you ask??? I recently read that some dont like the name Mommy Brain so I'm calling it PDMD, Post Delivery Memory Disorder, LOL- or CIML, Child Induced Memory Loss. ;o) hmmmmm, wonder what the code would be for that.

Dreams

I was talking to my mom this morning and I remembered a dream that i hadlast night when she told me her CT is this Wed. My dream was that the tumors were tiny little dots on the scan. I have no idea what a tumor looks like on a scan or even if tiny little white dots are good, but my mom had the same dream last night. That the scan showed they were tiny little white dots. It must be good if we both dreamed it.

memories

One time at one of the many football games we went to. Betty was saying to someone that she thinks it's about time to go back to Vegas and they'll go on (such n such day) I automatically said, "that sounds good" she said,"who said you were invited" LOL I just invite myself. Ofcourse i/we were invited. We did everything together.

Doing emilys post below made me remember this.

Emily's 7th Birthday!!

Here is the cake her mom made, Yummy!!

Her mom and dad got her the build a bear for at home and it was a HUGE hit!!!!

Here's Abigail, looking cute as always!

I cant believe our God Daughter is 7. Thats crazy. Wanna here a funny story. Lani and Anna didnt let anyone know they went into labor and called Betty and Bill after they had Emily. Well, I get a call from Bens brother saying they had had the baby. So i hurry across the street to Bettys and Bills and i ask Where are they???????? THEY LEFT, without ME to go see the baby!!!!!!! WHAT!!, I go everywhere with them, lol. How could they forget me. I was floored. I had to wait untill the next day and we ALL went to the hospital. They forgot me, how??????? :o) I love them and I miss them so much.

Schools out for summer!!!!!

Today was the kids unoffical last day of school!!! Their last day is really Monday but they were told that they didnt have to come. Thomas' VP said you are more than welcome to come...... but we dont want you here ;oP

She is so much better

By the time i put Abigail to bed last night I finally got her temp down and today it is 99.6 which i think is considered a normal temp now a days. So no Dr appt for her!! I'm glad I waited until today because he would have cathed her. She is still grumpy and a little more vocal about not feeling well. I think her throat is feeling better. That was one nasty virus, I believe it was worse than the flu. I have been kissing on her and have not gotten sick. Im guessing it's one of those viruses you get as a kid but are immune to once your an adult (i hope, lol)

Little Abigail

She is still sick. She still has her fever. Yesterday morning it was 105.3 I think thats the highest any of my kids have gone. Todays it 103.5. I was really hoping to not have to take her back to the Dr's :(

Found an old friend

Cris an I met at the Cowboy Boogie immediatly became friends. After Ben and I got engaged we lost contact. Well, last week i decided to look her daughter up on myspace because she has what I would call a unique name. Sure enough I found her and emailed her. She 18 now, she was 8 the last time I saw her. She let her mom know that I contacted her. Here Is Chris and I 10 yrs ago at the Boogie. (Thats also were Ben and I met, LOL)

Poor Abigail

Poor little thing. She has been running a fever since she got up Sunday. We took her to the Dr today and he says it looks like its viral. She is congested and she gags when she nurses, sometimes she throws up from it. He said her throat was red. i bet it's swollen too. Boy she got mad at him when he looked in her throat. She was suppose to have her 6 month well check tomorrow, but it was pushed until 6-10. He said he normally works the sick side but he'll come over to the well side to do her well check plus a kinda followup appt. If she isn't getting better in a couple days and is still running a fever then he said they'll cath her and check her urine for a UTI. :( boy, I hope she starts felling better.
Oh, the chunky monkey weighed 19.4

All Gave Some - Billy Ray Cyrus

I knew a man called him Sandy Kane

Fewfolks even knew his name

But a hero was he

Left a boy, came back a man

Still many just don't understand

About the reasons we are free

I can't forget the look in his eyes

Or the tears he cries

As he said these words to me

All gave some and some gave all

And some stood through for the red, white and blue

And some had to fall

And if you ever think of me

Think of all your liberties and recall

Some gave all

Now Sandy Kane is no longer here

But his words are oh so clear

As they echo through out our land

For all his friends who gave us all

Who stood the ground and took the fall

To help their fellow man

Love your country and live with pride

And don't forget those who died

America can't you see

All gave some and some gave all

And some stood through for the red, white and blue

And some had to fall

And if you ever think of me

Think of all your liberties and recall

Some gave all

And if you ever think of me

Think of all your liberties and recall, yes recall

Some gave all

Some gave all
