Thank you Lord!!

Brayden's visit to the pediatrician yesterday went very well! His hemoglobin level went from 11.8 in June to 12.4 yesterday! YAY! Thank goodness for Pedia-sure & Centrum Kids vitamins! He doesnt eat much & complains of his stomach hurting some. His pediatrician gave me some prevacid to try. Prayerfully this will work & he will start eating more...

My plans for the rest of the week...

My sister-in-law just informed me that I am slacking on my blogging.... I havent had anything overly exciting happen so I will just let everyone know my plans for this week. My mom is in town today so I will spend some time with her this afternoon. Tomorrow is church night. Thursday I am taking Brayden to the pediatrician. When he went for his 3 year check up his iron was a little low so we need to have it rechecked. The child wont eat anything so I'm thinking about having a feeding tube put in while we're there. I know 3 year olds are picky, but he eats barely enough to stay alive. If it wasnt for pedia-sure & vitamins he would get no nutrients. He will eat bananas so I'm glad about that. I'm excited about Friday....Patrick & I are having a date night...all by ourselves! Can you believe that? We NEVER get a babysitter to go out alone. In the past 3 years I think we have gone out by ourselves a total of 4 times...seriously! Saturday evening I have a lingerie shower to attend. I will post again after Brayden's doctor visit to let y'all know how it goes...

Brayden has a stomach bug....

Poor Brayden, he has been sick with a stomach bug since late Saturday night. He threw up all in his bed around 11:30 Saturday night. Patrick had to take his sheets & pj's outside & hose them off. It was obvious he felt bad Sunday morning, but he wasnt throwing up. He wouldn't drink or eat anything & he started throwing up again around 4:00pm & continued until around 11:00pm. We made a trip to the ER, mostly because I thought he was dehydrated. We arrived at 11:30pm & left at 3:45 am! Thankfully, he did not need an IV. He was given some medicine for nausea & checked for strep (his throat was red), but that was negative.... He still wont eat anything, so he really hasnt eaten since Saturday & today is Tuesaday! Please pray that my baby feels better very soon!

You wont believe what I did!!

I locked my keys in my car with it running & Emma in her car seat....seriously!
I called On Star even though I don't have it connected anymore I thought surely they would unlock my car with a child inside. The guy said "m'am, our records show that you canceled your account so we can't unlock the doors for you, would you like me to connect you to 911" Uh.... NO, I don't need an ambulance idiot, I want my car unlocked! He also said "When you get in the car if you'll push the onstar button we'll get your account rstarted" Are you kidding me!!! My 1 year old child is locked in the car & you won't unlock it in a semi-emergency & you think I'm going to pay for your service....uh, that would be a BIG FAT... NO!!!
Buford came & got it unlocked & Emma was fine. It was around 7:00 Sunday evening so I thought it would cost me an arm & a leg, but it was only $45....
If your wondering why I didn't just use the extra key.... My hubby was cutting our grass about a month or so ago. His keys fell out of his pocket & he ran over them with the mower...

Memory Loss.....

I think I need some medication! I can't seem to remember anything! I loose my car keys, phone, etc. all the time. I'd probably forget where I put a child if they werent walking around right behind me all the time ;)
If I don't do something the second I think about it, it wont get done. If you ever ask me to do something & say I will later...you will need to remind me about 3,000 times to make sure it gets done!

What did you say?!

You'd be surprised what can come out of a 3 year olds mouth.....
Yesterday while picking Brayden & Emma up from their Pawpaw & Nana's Brayden was being a little huffy. He wanted cookies & I told him no. So he did what any kid would do, he ran & asked Nana... He was told "no" by Nana as well. He didn't like that answer so he got a little loud & said "YES!" I said to him "Brayden, you are not getting cookies right now, please stop being ugly" His response to that was "Well, Mommy, you quit being a b***h" I thought I was going to hit the floor! I didnt respond to him hoping he would never repeat it again! Sometimes if you make a big deal the word sticks more that if you just let it slide. I really try not to let ugly words slip, ecspecially in front of Brayden. I don't know if he heard it from me or somewhere else, but I was a very shocked & it took me a second to register what he said.... Of course, these days you hear worse that that flipping through the tv channels.

Separation Anxiety!!

Ok...Emma has become an attachment to my hip! She walks around right behind me with her arms up for me to pick her up. I love her very much & would love to hold her all day, but I just can't. She cries when I get out of her sight. Patrick had her last night rocking her in our bedroom. I walked in to put the sheets on the bed & she saw me, but I didn't get her right away........ She cried so hard she "tossed her cookies" on both me & her daddy. Everything from the banana & peas she ate for supper to the peach yogurt she had for her snack..... I'm hoping this phase passes very quickly.. I think she's starting to hurt ther daddy's feelings....

Getting a little more sleep....

Emma has finally started letting me sleep in...well , a little. The past 2 weekends we have slept until 9:30!! I know thats not really late, but when you have a 3 year old & a 1 year old it's a miracle to get to stay in the bed past daylight ;) We were even late for church last Sunday. Emma is usually my alarm clock & we're up by 7:30. Boy was I surprised last Sunday when I rolled over & the clock said 9:20...Church starts at 10:30. Patrick works on Sunday's so I am on my own getting myslef, Brayden & Emma ready for church. We were about 30 minutes late & it was pouring rain....I got a little aggrevated & church was exactly where I needed to be!
