My Little Football Player

The kids and I went to Sioux City with Curt these last couple of days. He has a store out there that is doing a remodel and needed our ladder. Well, it won't fit in Curt's car, so I was like, hey, we'll bring it out in the van, just take 2 of the kids in your car and I'll take the other one. ;o) So we left Monday, Skylar and I in the van with the ladder and Curt and the other 2 in his car. ;o)
Tuesday nite before supper, I took the kids over to the mall and we walked through Scheels. I saw these cute little football helmets and was like, hey try this on! So I got the smallest one and it wouldn't even fit on Skylar's head! SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!! I tried pounding it down, NOPE!!! So after trying a couple different sizes, I went to the biggest one and put it on Gavin, it FIT!!! It was HARD to get off though too! But anyways... I got my camera out of my purse, took his pic, put the camera back in my purse, closed it up and got the helmet off Gavin's big head. I noticed this employee was following me. I kept stopping to look at stuff before heading to the door to see if he really was. Sure enough, he would stop DEAD and "pretend" to do something to different racks. Ok, I've worked retail, I know how to straighten racks and I know when someone if being followed. I must say, this guy did a VERY poor job of following me, unless he wanted me to know he was! :O) So I got to the door, walked out and he FOLLOWED me out the door and part way to my car before turning around to go back in! I am like what? Is it a crime to try on a football helmet and take a pic? I almost said something to him, but I was a good girl and didn't say anything. It was a decent mall, all except for the employee that followed me out of the Scheels store...
Here's Gavin... Isn't he cute???? ;o)

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
