The weekend in review.

Today I start school. Another step to my goal of getting my NP. Its going to be hard as i will be starting my day at 5am and getting home at 9pm. Gonna miss seeing my babies on Tuesdays. Their dad will be taking the older ones to basketball practice. K will be staying with her ms sherry.
Speaking of basketball the girls had their first game this weekend. They did an awesome job. Genesis scored 4 times. I was such a proud momma. She got the basketball gene from her mom and dad! :) Alexus is a great defender. She had quite a few blocks.
After the game we went to spend time with some family that came into town. I love spending time with them. As a child growing up I was not close with this part so I really enjoy getting to get closer with them and having them be a great part of our lives even if they live hours away. My aunt was there for me in such a major way when kenadie was small and we can never express our gratitude for her. So we really enjoy seeing them and letting her see the girls flourish.
Sunday we ended up taking alexus to the ER. She was having some resp distress. So she had to go. Really bad bronchitis for her. The next day I woke up and sicker than a dog. ugh. I still feel like monkey doo.
Btw kenadie had a dr appt on friday and she did great. gained a couple of lbs back that she lost while being sick. We still have to keep a very close eye on her and she is seeing the dr weekly until she recovers. She started showing some signs of bronchitis last night and this morning. I am praying we can keep it under wraps. Well off to work.

moms day at the doctor

Today is my day at the doctor. December 9th i had a minor obstruction in my bowels. The 10th one that i have had. So I went back to my gi after not seeing him for 3 years. I focus so much energy on kenadie and the girls that i have let my health run down. So I will be going to get the small bowel follow through and they will decide to remove some adhesions. If i dont get my diet and exercise down then i will have to have a colon rescetion. This really sucks bad. I am so stressed about my job, kenadie who is still having some issues from salmonella, and my life in general. Did I mention i am taking 6 hours of school again to work towards my NP?! Yep guess I am insane. I am also trying to make the decision not to work full time and go to float pool. It would allow me to take more time at school and be more free to do k trips however its a huge cut of income. With things going on in my house right now I am spinning my wheels. ugh.
Also i called the charity airlines about trying to get some help for the march flights and they said they actually might be able to. I am praying hard!

A new year and a recap

Since my last post 6.5 months ago. Again if you still read anything on here i am so sorry for the lack of updates. Life has been ever changing in this house. I passed my boards, got a job, made some difficult family decisions. Kenadie was diagnosed with a primary immuno disease in august i do believe. She had her port put in october 15th. That was a long drawn out ordeal alone. She has been to the hossy a few times since but did well. Then she thought ringing in the new year in the hospital would be good. ugh. She spiked a fever on thursday before genesis birthday part then was severely sick. Took her to the pedi n he did cultures. He said wait and see how the weekend went. So she got worse we took her in 1/1/12. They diagnosed her with salmonella during her stay. I can't tell you how at a loss i felt. She has so much going on this is one thing she did not need. I felt like i didn't protect my child like i am supposed to. How i am supposed to check her food at all times i don't know but as a mom i just felt that way. They drew some lab work to send off to a special lab where only one in the u.s. does this lab. I am praying and hoping for answers. I am going to definitely try to update my blog more often. It wont be all centered on kenadie. It might be about me or whatever just our lives in general. I again give a forewarning my mouth is in need of a cleansing. So please know your forewarned. lol.
