MAJOR FRUSTRATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, we made it to IN all in one piece! But we were SERIOUSLY wondering if we really should be here. First of all, Thursday morn, had to take Gavin in to get his ears re-checked to make sure his infection was all gone. Then ended up taking Skylar in because she had major runny nose... Thought we should get it checked before we come, just in case ya know? Well, Gavin's ear are NOT any better, and got more meds for him, something different. Then got Skylar some amox. She has a start of an ear infection in her right ear. Later that nite we went over to the band's practice to drop off a going away present for Obie, since we won't get to see him before he leaves (well, maybe, maybe not? didn't know for sure the day he is leaving?) So dropped off some apple butter, strawberry jam, peach jam and blackberry jam that I made and canned. He heard me tell Dara that I made it and his mouth was watering, so thought that would make a good going away present! :O) On the way back to the van from dropping it off, I noticed that the front passenger side tire had a nice baseball size bulge in it. I am like what is that? And when did it happen? We got home ok, figured we would get a new tire when we got here in IN. We all got up Friday morning, Dakotah complained of sore throat, and ear and her nose hurt. I am like now what do I do? PLUS, I woke up with pink eye!!!!!!!!!! AHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! Could ANYTHING else go wrong?!?!?! We just decided to come on out and hopefully some over the counter drugs would help Kotah and I had left over eye drops, praying it would be enough! :O) Thankfully Curt had Dakotah in his car for most of the trip, but I put in a dvd for Gavin, and then got Dakotah in the van so she could watch it too! So for the last remainder of the trip I had all 3 of them. (this was the last 3 hours or so) Oh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Another AHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was about ready to pull my hair out by the time we got to my mom's!!!!! NONE of them got more than a 3o minute nap, Kotah was pushing Gavin's buttons and Gavin was pushing mine, and Skylar was just butt tired!!!!!!!! So we got here, and they played then got them to bed! THEN this morning (Sat) Dakotah was coughing REALLY bad, and my eye was worse!! So I tired to get us into my parents doc, but because we were never seen there before, we were considered new patients and they wouldn't see us until Monday. Uh nope, not going to work. So we found an Redi Med and got in. We got there at 10:15 and didn't leave until 12:30. I could've left by 11:45, but there was a HUGE mix up and no communication between the nurses and doc. SO............ Basically, the nurse came in and looked Dakotah over (thankfully she has nothing, just viral) then the doc came in and then I asked about my eye. So she said she needed me to fill out some paperwork and then get me some meds for my eye. She left, the nurse came in with the paperwork and took my blood pressure and all that good stuff. She said ok, the doc will be in a little. She then came in a said it would be a little because she was stitching up a hand... Fine..... About 45 minutes later the nurse came in and asked why I was still sitting there, I said uh, you and the other nurse told me that the doc was coming back in? The nurse said uh no, your paperwork is up front waiting on you. I was like, nice... SO I am already peeved because we were SUPPOSED to be up at Curt's parents campground before now. So we got up there, did some stuff, then dropped off the prescriptions at Wal-Mart, they said it would be an hour and a half! Ok fine, the camp is only 10 minutes away. Got back there at 4:00, the time it should've been done, and waited another hour and half before I got my meds. SO by now I am REALLY upset, no, I am REALLY mad!!!!!!!!!! Got back to the camp grounds, almost in tears because these last 2 days have NOT been so good!!!!! I am praying that tomorrow will go MUCH better!!!!!!!! his mom bought me a DQ b-day cake and am looking forward to eating that tomorrow! Hopefully make these last 2 days a little better!!! ;o) So, no funny stories on this blog, keep reading for more! :O
P.S.
by the time we got here, my tired was the size of a small cantaloupe, so we got a new one.. yippee, another expense we didn't expect! Thank you mom and dad for buying it!!! :O)

Whew...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to kettle bell class and I died...  I honestly haven&#

Ultrasound

First of all, thank you ladies for all those sweet comments you made on my last post! How sweet you are for saying those things! Made my day!!! :O) Second, went for the ultrasound on Monday and everything is fine! WHOO HOO!!!!! No more placenta previa!!!! The baby weighs about 2 1/2 lbs, and everything looks good! We took the kids with us so they could see their baby brother/sister, they LOVED it!! Gavin was FULL of questions though! What's that stuff she put on mommy's belly? Why do the lights needs to be off? I only see one eye. Where's the other eye? What was that, is that his hand or leg? Oh my.... ;o) The tech ended up putting up a 4D on the screen, so that was really cool to see! The cord was kinda in the way, but I still think it was awesome! I didn't have that with any of the other kids!!! :O) Maybe the trick is taking 3 other siblings in to see the 4th!!! ;o) I also only gained a pound, which I am trying to figure out, seeings how I pretty m

Grandma

Grandma passed away this morning at 1:35 am. She had been totally un-responsive for the past couple of days. Yesterday we got a call and said she only had an hour, they said they made the mistake and grandma heard them, so she kept hanging on! Her feet had been cold and almost black, but they were starting to get warm and she was taking more breaths, but still very shallow. Finally she gave in and went home! The family seems to be doing ok, just please keep them in your prayers! The viewing will be Sunday and the funeral on Monday. I am not sure of the times yet, they are meeting with the funeral director in an hour. I am not going to be at the musical practice Monday nite, so Sandy May and Jena R are in charge that nite! I will have the lines assigned so the kids will know what their parts will be! Please help them out this week!!!! Thank you!!!! Thanks again for all of your prayers!!!!
