Update

Well Cooper is going to be fine. The doctor told me that all he has is Thrush and will recover fairly quickly. They gave him an antibiotic called Nystaysis that he has to gargle in his mouth then swallow for 8-10 days. YUCK!!!!! He said that is caused by the antibiotic he had taken a little over a week ago. So he will start getting better soon enough.

My doctors appointment went very good today. I am allowed to go back to normal work duty except for lifting heavy steel. I can go back to welding. AWESOME!!!!!!! Doc wants me to go back and see him January 29th just to see how its going. I need to keep up with my exercing otherwise it wont get very strong. I can move it and all but it is still fairly weak. It will all get better.

Poor Poor Coobah

Well here it goes again... another round of sick kids. YAY! Well Sunday morning Cooper woke up and didnt quite look like himself. Later on that day he started not acting like himself. He was quiet which never happens and he was running around and being mean to Ely. Which NEVER EVER happens. He fell asleep then when he woke up he was just burning up. So for the next 24 hours we were trying to keep his temp down by alternating Tylonal and Motrin. I could never get the temp below 101. Which isnt to terribly bad for a child so i'm told. He has this wearid stuff going onwith his tounge. It is pain free from what i have noticed so i am going to have that checked out along with him being sick to. We have an appointment today at 3:30 with Dr. Quinn. I have my appointment with my doctor at 3:00 for my shoulder. Hopefully it will be the last one. I guess we will have to wait and see. I will update everyone when it get back from the docs today. Love you all.

Merry Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS! I hope everyone had/has a safe and merryful Christmas. My family spent Christmas Eve with my dad for supper and then to my mom's for the rest of the evening. We opened gifts and it was much appreciated for everything we got. I was just really glad to be able to come spend this special time with my family and celebrate the birht of our Jesus Christ.

Christmas day we didnt do much I guess. We had everybody come over to my mom's house and we had a good dinner then we all just sat around and hung out and caught up on everybody. It was so good to see my little nephew Rowdy. (Which is Stephanie and Cody's son). It has been since he was newborn since we have seen him. His will be 6 months on the 3rd of January. Getting big Rowdy rowdster. LOL! Our little nickname for him. So overall it was a pretty good holiday. Love everyone very much.

Our new House...and Ely

Well we have been working on our new house and I am getting soooo excited to get moved in. We have the kitchen painted which turned out very very nice. It is a light yellow with the nice brown cubords. It doesnt sound very nice but it is. The only reason we chose a light yellow is because I always decorate my kitchens in apple stuff. So the red and the light yellow will look so good together. We are doing the living room and dining room a type of dark green and we are going to sponge over it with a lighter brown I think. I am not sure if it is a tan or what. I havent gotten to see it yet. We are going to change the play room because Larry (my father in law) forgot we didnt plan on painting it and he went ahead and spackled it so we ended up having to tear the wall paper off the north wall and we are now going to paint it. Not sure what color yet. Thats ok that it didnt get to stay that way. Either way i am very thankful that we have a house now because of my in-laws.

Well I think we all can relate to what I am about to write you all. Remember in that moving "A Christmas story" when that little boy is dared to stick his tounge to that flag pole in the middle of winter? We I know every kid does it and finally one of my boys did. Ely was looking out the and he saw some fresh snow on the railing outside on the steps and before you knew it Ely was screaming bloody murder. Kyle went to go get some warm water to release his tounge but by the time he even got to the water faucet Ely had ripped his tounge off by himself. Needless to say Ely has a pretty bad sore on the tip of his tounge. It bled for ever. Poor little guy. He is doing much better he is eating now and drinking so we are on an uphill slide. YAY!

Now to my little man we call Mr. Trouble. He is into everything. I can't hardly turn my back on him a split second before he gets into something he shouldnt. Well I took a few minutes to go to the bathroom and came out and he was sitting on the floor with a light purple mouth. I Found him in front of the fridge with an empy and realized he drank the rest of my Children's Ibeuprofin bottle was empty. He drank about half maybe a little less than half the bottle. Oh My Gosh!!! I freaked out. I called my mom then I called the hospital then my mother in law. She came home and told me to calm down and call the poison control (which I have never had to do before) and they told me that he was going to be ok and that it wouldnt hurt him other than a small tummy ache. Now if it was Tylonal then I would have really had to worry. So luckily everything everything was okay with both the kids.

Later last night i ended up getting a severe headache. Me thinking it was a migrane it was only a really really bad headache. My mother in law said it was a stress headache. My eyes were sensitive to light but not sounds. I just put a cool washcloth over my eyes and went to bed with the lights off. I dont ever want that again. I could never imagine what all of you others feel like with the major migranes. Sorry bout that ya'll. Well on that note i am going to head out. Later gators.

Its a BRRRRR

Oh my goodness, it is FREEEEZZZZZIIIIINNNNNGGGG!!!! Today it was 39 below zero with wind chill. We couldnt get to work until at least 9:00am. NOT COOL. We didnt end up getting to much snow. They say only about 5 inches but the wind was just so terrible that nobody could even do anything. Which is totally bad for the boys. They have that cabin fever where they are stuck inside to long they become very busy and loud. ERRRR!!! They give me a headache but i still love them.

Money has been tight for everybody and it just sint much fun. Christmas is going to be tough this year since i had my car accident it put us behind even more. I will just have to wait and get gifts for everyone when tax time gets here which isnt to far away i guess. I was hoping to get bunk beds for the boys which isnt goint to happen right now either. Well that is just life I guess. I hope everyone is staying warm and safe. Love everybody and you all are in my prayers.

Well my day was...

Pretty good. Well today was my first day back to work after my car accident and it went pretty well. I am pretty sore but hey that was to be expected after being home and in a brace with absoultly no movement what so ever for 4 weeks. I am only allowed to do light duty which is still pretty intense for just starting out. LOL! I have been painting these mini bottomless feed bunks and some mini pan bunks that have been made for my boss to take to farm shows. It isnt so bad painting them except when i have to bend over. That puts some pressure on my shoulder that isnt the most comfortable but hey its all good. It felt good to be back to work and out of the house away from my four year old and my two year old.

Oh my word are we getting some snow. This morning i woke up to head to work and it was raining. Yes rain in december. NOT FUN!! Ely dont have school tomarrow due to the weather so we will be home hanging out. Hope all is well.

Oh back to work back to work

Well i got the okay from the doctor to head back to work for LIGHT DUTY!! I go back on Monday which is kind of a relief for Kyle and well me to. I am just nervous of hurting so bad. I called the doc for some more pain pills just in case i will need them. I am sure i will for a few days. At least we will have some more income again. It is a good thing we live with my in-laws for right now. It saves us a ton on bills. So it will all work out in the end everything always does. Hope all is well with everyone.

Update

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I know I did. I was able to go back to Madtown and see my family. That felt soooooooo good. Everybody looked great and healthy. Well i have some great news. WE FOUND A HOUSE!!!!! Well my in-laws bought another house here in Orient and we are going to rent it from them. It is a three bedroom house witha living room, dining room, huge kitchen, bathroom and basement. It has a small patieo on the back and a single garage. Its pretty nice. We wont be able to get into it until at least after the first of the year. We are cleaning it and going to shampoo the carpets and deffinatly repaint. It has these bright blue walls in the living room and this old wierd looking orange in the dining room and another blue in teh bathroom. Crazy wierd. The awesome one (sarcastically) is the playroom. Its a granny apple green. I mean this is like really green with this really cool (Sarcastically again) wall paper that is striped granny apple green and a yellow green. I mean this is sooooo retro man. It kind of grows on you though. I might keep it because i found these differnt curtains that are home made that has like the three little pigs, big bad wolf, red riding hood, henzel and grettle, and three little bears on them. That will fit real nice in their. When i get pictures i will be sure to put them on here. I like the house.

Let it snow Let it snow Let it snow that is all I can say I guess. We have already 3-4 inches here and it is still snowing. Kyle is just loving it let me tell ya. He is sooo ready for Ice fishing along with getting his toys out and go snowmobiling. Ely wants to make a snowman so if it isnt snowing tomarrow we might do that. And yes i will get pics of that to. Take care Ya'll
