I've been frustrated to say the least with my inability to post my pictures on here for everyone to see. So for those of you that normally read my blog, my pics are and will be mostly on my Facebook page. Probably until I can get a new computer. I think this my laptop is about to say goodbye for good....I don't know I just know it's frustrating.
So on to more important things......Dave has gotten a job!!! YAY!!! And it's really nice, only 3 days a week but 12 hour shifts with chance for over time. It couldn't come at a better time, with Christmas and birthdays coming. We'll be able to get caught up on things and to breathe again and live life.
Tristian has gotten really really sick this last month. Did nothing but sleep and ended up losing 13 lbs. He had a bunch of lab work done and everything that the dr first thought like Mono came back negative. I had to take him in every other day to keep checking his WBC (white blood cell count) because it kept dropping. The norm is 4.5-11 his was first 2.3 and went down to 1.3 before it started to make its way back up. With having 5 kids and a lot of sicknesses over the years, I have never had a doctor mention cancer more so leukemia before. Thankfully!! But it really put a fear in me that something could be really wrong. With lots of prayers from friends and family and him resting slowly but surely his count started to go back up. And he has been good since then. We are still not sure what made him so sick and why his body wasn't able to fight it like normal. But we are ever so thankful and praise God for his health!!
We've finished up Volleyball last week and Soccer this week. We're going to be taking a break in sports until after Christmas. Momma needs a break from all the running around and being on the go.all.the.time. So now I'm cooking, baking and crafting more
We did our pumpkin carving today and the kids really enjoyed it, as I knew they would. This year we're going to take them to the church for their festivities on Halloween then around the neighborhood by the church afterwards. And that should be plenty. So see pictures you'll have to again look at my Facebook page. And if you would like to and don't have access please just ask me here.
Also another new thing I've been up to is making Tutu's and have actually started selling them. It's fun and I really like making them, I am also going to be making headband, hair bows/clips, more skirts and other crafty things I can think of. Just something to pass the time while the kids are in school now. I can't believe how fast this year has gone by, next month is Thanksgiving and my parents will be coming over to have dinner at our house. Then Christmas already.....I can't wait to get up all the lights and decor on our new house!! It's going to look great.....even better when it snows!!
