Help Me... hehe

1 week i will be having surgery. I am excited for the pain to go away, but scared out of my wits because there has only been twice in my life i've been out for something. 1 was my tonsils removed and 1 was when i had an ulcer check done. Neither one was after high school so my mom was always there waiting for me when I was done and comforting me. Now i am an adult and honestly im scared. I also have a freak out during something major and I am scared of what i will say or do before they get me knocked out for this.

Sabrina has another after school dentention tomorrow. She is not doing her school work or listening to the teacher. I have no idea what is going on and she won't talk to me. I am almost tempted to cry over all of this.

Aja had a field trip on Monday and oh man she had fun. She went to a healthworks museum which teaches kids how to keep their bodies healthy. She played on the slide mainly but she had a blast going down the slide off n on for pretty much 90mins haha!

Osiris went along on the field trip and he had a blast on the lightboard. they had a section of the floor that did a light show n osiris was in love haha. He had a blast though, came home n took a 3hr nap hehe.

Thaddeus goes on Friday for his 4 month check-up. I can't believe its that time already. It feels too soon for that but yet feels like he is older than that. hehe i am so weird i know.

I am ready for #5 to start now, but not going to rush it or try, just let it happen when it happens.

My nephew was born last friday, weighing in at 7lbs 10ozs and 19 inches long. I will get to see him Easter Saturday when I go pick up the girls from my mom and stepdads. While on the phone with my mom as she was telling me the details of his birth, her and i laughed at something. My oldest nephew will be 3 in sept, osiris will be 2 in october, thad will be 1 in nov, and so far no birth in dec. so 3,2,1,0 haha! Intersting yet kind of creepy at the same time.

I ordered some Lactate support to help with my nursing. I am not ready to admit defeat yet. I want to give it one last hooraw and see what happens.

I will be having a yard sale sometime soon to sell some of my deal goodies. I have loads and well wont charge an arm or leg for it. Im going to sell it cheap so i can help others and make a lil profit on it.

well i guess for now that alls i have to say/write/tell.

Few Things

Well I have my surgery scheduled for 4-8-09 @ 11:45am. The day before Sabrina turns 7. 7yrs ago at that time I was in a hospital being induced. What are the odds of that happening? Being in the hospital 7yrs to the exact day for something. Depending on the girls dad will depend on what happens. I know their dad is coming up for Sabrina's party on Saturday the 4th. He might just take them home with him and then take them to my moms later but not sure. If not my mom will get the girls on Wednesday morning and take me to the hospital on her way out of town. Then Rick and the boys will have to come get me.

We are not sure what is going on with Sabrina. She is getting in trouble a lot lately. She had after-school detention last week. She has had 4 days of color changes. Different levels of warnings before she is really in trouble. This really all started too when her dad told her that him n his mom were coming to visit on Sunday. After she heard that she started not paying attention. Hrmm anyone else find that odd? I know I do. Aja also has been a pita lately since hearing her dad was coming. I don't think either of the girls expected him to show but he did. they went to CEC (Chuck E Cheese) and spent about 2hrs there.

the boys are doing well. I think Thad might have a cold, all he seems to want to do is sleep lately. Osiris actually slept thru the night 2 nights in a row WOOHOO!! *knocks on wood* I wonder how long it will last, though.

Last night we had a visitor at the house at 4am. They were shining their very bright spotlight into the bedroom window. The police were looking for someone connected with a homicide in Cassopolis, MI. They were told his address was ours. Nope its not. The cop did say he bets it was the house 2 doors up from ours but they just up and moved in less than 1 day on sunday. Interesting too. The homicide happened on march 9th and the lady n her kids n friends all moved by sunday. Interesting huh? I didn't think so when i was woke up from a nice deep sleep. I made the mistake of going back to sleep and then slept like crap. HA!

Aja's Appt

Well on early afternoon Thursday Aja and myself loaded up into the van for our journey down to Riley. I really hate that drive for a 10-20 minute appt. I get her set-up with her dvd player and dora movie, then I get myself read for the boring drive -- removing my shoes, jacket, and opening my can of coke. We take off and settle in. We stop in Kokomo for a potty break and lunch. We continue down the road and arrive at Riley. Aja was really good all the way there. Her appt went well for the most part. Her doctor said she was gaining well and growing. He is running some blood work to check her bone growth levels, since she has been complaining her legs hurt alot. He also ordered a rerun of a stool culture test to check for fat. So as long as both of those come back normal then she is done down at Riley. Let me tell ya I will be glad to stop going there. I will miss some of the parents/kids we encounter there and make friends with.

See Surgeon Next Tuesday

I see the general surgeon next Tuesday for my gallbladder removal. Hopefully it goes well. I am actually very scared to have this surgery but not afraid of a c-section hehehehe, go figure. I got my script for Zoloft again today and praying it kicks in soon so I can feel better again.

Sabrina is doing really well in school. I visited her last week 2 days for lunch. I am crazy because the school lunch food was actually good. the pizza on Friday OH MAN just like I remember school pizza.

Aja is looking forward to our Mommy/Daughter day on Thursday. She likes it when we go alone because it means we has me all to her self for at least 7hrs haha.

Osiris has been a major ham lately, when he is not screaming his head off. I just love the way he cheesy smiles at us. He loved the weather last week, he got to play outside.

Thaddeus has finally been staying awake longer during the day. He is growing so fast, someone make him stop please or at least slow down. I miss him being my tiny newborn. Now he is my chunky baby hehe. He is so precious and sweet though.

Long couple weeks

Well, the kids are feeling better for the most part. Thaddeus has a cold again. He was taken outside last night in only a onesie. I didn't do that but we won't go into those details right now. Hopefully he will get over this cold very soon.

Sabrina's program for Black History went well. She did really good. I will sometime soon get the video uploaded to myspace. She is doing really well in school. she is "forgetting" to do some homework but only because she claims to forget just because she doesn't want to do it. Smart kid huh?

Aja is excited for her field trip later this month. She is also excited to be back in school but upset she has to leave 1/2 day. She will im sure get used to it soon and if not then well school only has 2 more months to go haha!

Osiris is a smarty pants. He is getting on his tip-toes and trying to turn the door knobs. I guess he has spent alot of time watching everyone else do it now he wants to be like us. He is loving the nice spring like weather we have been having. He has been able to go outside and play with his sisters and the dogs. I can already tell he is going to have a blast this summer outside.

Thaddeus like I said has a cold. He is doing alright with it really. He is not liking the formula too much, though. So mommy went and got some Fenugreek so I can make enough breastmilk for him. Hopefully it will kick in soon and start working. I had to take it once before when I was nursing Aja and it worked wonders. I am really hoping for the same thing again this time.

Aja has her final appointment at Riley on Thursday, I am ready for the appointment because that means last time I have to make a 6hr round trip for a 15 minute appointment.

The girls dad is purchasing them a mini-van which of course they can't drive so I guess I am getting a mini-van haha! I am very thankful to him and can't tell him enough.

Sniffles and sneezes and crankiness galore

It seems all 4 kids have the sniffles, sneezes and major crankiness. I am out of OTC cold medicine and no one told me. So its all 5 of us packed into the bathroom with the steam built up. HA! Great picture in our tiny bathroom. Sabrina seems to be doing better than the rest, maybe its because she does a steroid inhaler twice daily and the other 3 don't.

Thaddeus is growing up so fast. Make him stop someone please haha! This last week he has really started being awake more. I know I know by now most other babies are already doing that but i enjoyed him sleeping because it gave me a reason to lay the others down for a nap and take one myself hehe.

Osiris has a new found love of Spongebob band-aids haha, goofy kid. He got a scratch on the back of his leg behind the knee. I put a big Spongebob band-aide back there and at first he cried. Now its a cool to him. I took it off to change it and he threw a fit. It was funny but once he got a new band-aid on it he thought he was as cool as the sliced bread.

Aja is a goofball. She has decided she wants to live in a house made of pillows. She is proud of herself for making one on the couch and not falling off haha!

Sabrina is in a school program tonight about Black History. She has a speaking part so this should be good. haha! She is excited but I am tired and not wanting to go but already RSVP'ed so go I must.

I am doing already but I have whatever the kids have but worse. I have a sore throat, sniffles, sneezes, crankiness, tiredness, and complete blahness. I go see the hema tomorrow so shall be interesting to see what we find out. We will be re-running some blood work to check some things to find out if I have any major blood problems.

I guess for now everyone take care. I will update after the program with some pics.

Funny Kids

My kids are wonderful really. Sabrina is a big help with entertaining Aja and Osiris when I am feeding Thaddeus. I just wish she wasn't such a poster child blonde ha!

This weekend we cleaned up the girls rooms. Not even 2hrs after we cleaned sabrina's room she had all the papers back all over the floor. When asked why she did that "i don't know, i forgot". I wanted to scream and laugh at the same time. So on sunday she was helping me with laundry as a punishment, Sabrina decides to tell me she is going to be a coupon clipping cheerleader when she gets older. I can see it now she will be clipping coupons while cheering for the football team. She'll find a really good one and yell for a time-out so she can focus on it before clipping haha!

Aja is always calling rick or myself Mrs. C (her preschool teachers name). She will follow up by "oops i mean mommy". I always mean to ask Mrs C if Aja ever calls her mommy or rick haha! Rick was helping Aja get on the mac to play a game. Aja picked a game that suggests children under 4 not play it. Well Rick said sorry Aja your not 4 yet your not supposed to play it. She immediately said "well darn i wanted to play guess I never will because I am going to be 3 forever" HAHA! We both laughed so hard. I've heard about wanting to be young but man staying 3 forever. no thanks.

Getting Started

I will make this post short and sweet. I mean can't be on too long since I have a human eatting machine attached to me haha. I love my life (at times - the times I don't are when I am fighting with Rick). We have a good life. 4 Healthy and happy children, 3 spoiled dogs and a beautiful house in mid-remodel.

Sabrina is a booger head, really she is. I know be nice but I will explain haha. Sabrina is so smart she acts stupid. She is in 1st grade and reading at a 3rd grade level. She is extremely smart but refuses to do her homework. She feels she doesn't need to. Her teacher made the comment that if it wasn't for the fact that she notices Sabrina has a hard time making friends for a week or so, or else the teacher would suggest she be jumped a grade. I will admit I am not ready for her to start 3rd grade next year.

Aja is funny. She LOVES to throw the biggest fit over anything at all. It is funny but very annoying. She can play all by herself at all the time, and she will fight with herself. Its cute. I have never known a child to fight with themself and refuse to play haha.

Osiris is a ham. He is such a goof. He will give you this look of "what I didn't do it" then BIG OLE grin with his face tilted back. Its hilarious. He found a new love of shoes. I finally found some that fit him and he LOVES them. Sometimes I can't get them off him. He loves the sound they make when he walks (runs) around the house.

Thaddeus is my mr magoo. I swear to me he reminds me of Mr. Magoo and not in a bad way but a silly old man cute way haha! I know I am horrbile. hehe. Right now Thad has decided he is done eatting and is talking to me its so sweet and cute. Now if only he would decide to eat on a normal schedule instead of changing it up every single day.

for now this will be all until I get some kids down for naps and I can focus more on what I was doing haha.
