Surgery Pictures

Here are pictures of hubby's surgery. He asked the doctor if he could have some pictures, and since they take them as they go anyway, they made hubby a copy. I personally think they're pretty gross.

One More Day

Tomorrow is the big day. Hubby is really nervous. I finally got him out of the house so I could clean. He went to lowe's with his dad. Hopefully they're be gone long enough for me to finish cleaning.We need to be at the out patient center around 9, so I don't know if I'll post in the morning. Just keep us in your thought tomorrow. I'll definitely post once I get home and get him settled. My tt will get posted tonight. Have a great day!

Boo's Second Tooth Lost

Money???

I am so agrivated with hubby's doctor right now. The other day, when he filed for disability, they had to fill out a form to send to the insurance company. They charged us $25 for filling it in. Today, the doctor's office got a fax from the insurance that needed to be filled out. They called us and said they wouldn't touch it until we took them another $25! What the crap? I know it's time consuming to fill it out, but we don't have the money to be shelling out for every form, especially with hubby out of work. Aaarrrrggggg!!!!!Total change of subject, but boo moved up another level in reading a couple of weeks ago. She is now reading at almost 2nd grade level. We went to the library the other night, and she wanted Junie B. Jones books. I let her check out a few, and SHE has been reading them TO ME! It's crazy how quickly she is picking up reading. Definitely my child.I hope everyone enjoys their weekend. I'm hoping for a few quiet days of cleaning, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

Boob Doctor

Well, I now have to wait another three months. I go back may 22nd. He said it has improved, although it is not fully healed. I have one red spot that is being particularly stubborn, but he said it is on the bra line, so it is probably just irritation. He said he'd biopsy it if I wanted, and I said no thanks. Maybe if it's still there in may. Yeah, I know, I'm a chicken.Have I mentioned that I like this doctor? Despite the fact that I don't have answers, just waiting, he is a genuinely nice man. So, back to waiting. But at least now I know I'm on my way to better.

My Girls And Their Cousins

3 More Days

I go back to the boob doctor on thursday. For those of you who are new, I have a swollen left boob that is driving me nuts. Ultrasounds, mammograms and bloodwork all came back fine, so they have no idea what is wrong with me. The doctor decided to wait three months, then decide what to do. My three months are up thursday, and nothing has changed. I no longer have pain, but it is still swollen. I'm kinda secretly hoping for a reduction, but now with hubby's surgery looming, it probably won't happen. I'm not too worried about it.

TGIF

The past few days, boo has been crying again in the morning before school. She asked me today to come eat lunch with her. I told her if she didn't cry all next week, then next friday I would. Now I don't know if that's a good idea. Will it just upset her at school when I have to leave? Will she want to go with me? I'm at such a loss here.I'm glad it's friday. I got the kids on the bus this morning, then I went back to bed. I slept until my brother called around 10. When I got up, hubby was stressing about his surgery. We ended up going to mcdonalds to eat, just to get out of the house. I think the more he sits and thinks about it, the crazier he makes himself. So for the next 2 weeks, I need to keep his mind off the surgery. I wish he was working, then he wouldn't have all this time on his hands.Well, I hope everyone has a great friday!

Gifts From My Littlest Little Booger!

Who Loves Me?

Today is such a happy day! A day dedicated to love...how wonderful is that? Hubby took me out to lunch, chinese of course! On the way home, my "boyfriend" called to wish me a happy valentine's day. When I got home, hanging on my door was a box of chocolate from my dad. The picture below is of the elephants I got from my kiddo's and hubby. So who's my boyfriend? His name is rodney, and he works with hubby. Hubby refers to his wife as his girlfriend, so I became rodney's girlfriend. They really are sweet people, and good friends. They have a son who is a few days older than ryan, and they get along well.
I hope you all have a wonderful, love filled valentine's day!

Conversations

Between me and boo:

me ~ "I love you"

boo ~ "i love you too"

me ~ "I love you more"

boo ~ "no, I love you more"

me ~ "well, I love you the most"

boo ~ "no....."

You get the point right?

Between boo and her daddy:

hubby ~ "I love you brat faced toilet paper"(yes, he calls her toilet paper. And when he really wants to tick her off, he calls her used toilet paper. Pity me, people, this is what I live with!)

boo ~ "I love you too, booger eater"(can you feel the love?)

hubby ~ "I love you more, you fart sniffer"

boo ~ "yeah, you're probably right"

...and she walked out of the room!

I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants!

My Birthday Gifts

I am a sucker! Boo is home again today. She is still coughing, and I was afraid that if I had sent her to school, she would have had a fit during PE. As you can see, she looks so happy to be home! I think it was march of last year when she ended up in the hospital, so I get a little overprotective with her. But she is definitely going tomorrow!For my birthday, the kids were let loose in the dollar store, and told to pick out a gift apiece, and then a card. I just had to share ryan's card with you all. Yes, my 12 year old son picked this out for me! He wrote on the inside that the picture is not dad or keith urban, that it was him in the future! I don't think he read the part about me having a "date" with this guy. But he still cracked me up!
These are my gifts:

Update

Hubby's surgery is scheduled for the 28th. They are going in through many little holes to remove burrs or spurs (he couldn't remember which) in the shoulder socket, and of course fixing the tear in his rotator cuff. They say recovery is at least 6 to 8 weeks, maybe more, depending on how well he does with PT afterwards. Please, pray for me, that I don't kill him during his recovery!

Home Sick

Brandi rose is home again today. Every time she walks around for a minute, she has a coughing fit. I gave her the madicine last night, and it knocked her little butt out! She's 6, and only weighs 47 pounds. Imagine that, me having a tiny kid. Especially since she was 9lb 13oz at birth! We spent 2 hours in the doctors office yesterday. Her appointment was at 2:30. They called us back into the room at 4:10. I was so mad! The waiting room was packed, with people with the flu!! If I get sick, I'm going to kill someone! I've never had to wait that long before. Then when we get back there, it took 5 minutes for the nurse (we didn't even get to see the doctor!) to say it's probably viral, or allergies, here's a prescription, goodbye. But, at least boo was able to sleep last night, so it was worth it.I was treated to chinese food for lunch yesterday, and it was yummy!Hubby goes back to the orthopedic today. I'm a little nervous for him, but hopefully they will be able to tell him whether or not he needs the surgery. I think they'll want to do another MRI, but who knows. Keep your fingers crossed for him!
