Valentine's Day parties were lots of fun yesterday. I was so happy to be able to go to both Matthew & Michael's classrooms this time. Michael's was in the morning and I did conversation heart bingo. There were plenty of crafts for them to do. Aimee was helping with one that Michael went to. He told her he's making this Valentine for his brother ( Read more... )

Papa is in the hospital again. He was spitting up blood this morning. They drained 2 liters of blood from his stomach and did a scope. The bleeding has stopped and they think it may have been ulcers which could have been caused from the medications he's taking. He was on pepcid to protect his stomach from that so they are going to give him ( Read more... )

Papa had surgery this morning to drain the blisters on his leg. It went well and he came home this afternoon. I just talked to Mom a while ago and they are back at the hospital. Mom said he was talking gibberish then getting mad because she couldnt understand him. She called the doctor and they told her to bring him to the hospital. They did some ( Read more... )

Katherine & Tasha caught it. Tasha ended up in the ER because she vomited so much. A shot of anti-nausea medicine kept her from iv fluids. It made it's way to other friend's ( Read more... )

Jacob's sick. :( He started throwing up about 5 hours ago. Actually he seems to be fine now. He's back to his sassy little self. He threw up about 6 times in 2 hours. The poor thing couldnt keep anything down, not water or breastmilk. He'd nurse for a bit then 5 minutes later it'd all come back up again. I'm glad he's better. I wasnt looking ( Read more... )

I have 15 minutes until I have to leave to pick the boys up from school. I'm in the process of uploading pictures/video of Michael's birthday party but photobucket is always super slow for me so they may not be in this post. Can anyone recommend a better photosharing site? I've been having problems with photobucket for months and months now so I ( Read more... )
