Back Home (for now...)

Wow, what a week!!! CRAZY!!!!!!
Last Monday we drove to IN. We left Tuesday morning from the Fort Wayne Airport (If you EVER fly out of there, either - DON'T use the bathroom, OR take your own toilet paper, just a warning... ;oP) Got to Detroit Airport, then onto Richmond, VA. The flights were fine, I didn't like the second one, only because we reached a higher altitude! It feels weird flying when you are that prego! Plus the first time I have ever flown too! (Ok, well, when my brother was in West Virgina, we got to fly on a 4 seater one. I mean that!!! My brother knew someone and we got to take a ride and see the scenery, was pretty...) Got there and found our hotel. I took a nap while Curt did a conference call, then we went to go meet the old DM to have dinner at her place. SUPER GOOD food!!! :o) Then we drove around alllll day Wednesday and checked out some stores and about had a heart attack in some of them! They are need of some MUCH needed work!!!! Let's just say Curt will be busy!!! May be good that we aren't out there right away! We wanted to go check out Virgina Beach, but was to far away and we were both tired of just sitting! We went to Maryland and I really like the town called Waldorf. It was really pretty! Seemed like a quiet town, but yet, it had the Target, Wal-Mart and a mall, and a couple other stores. They don't have Super Target's out there! BUMMER!!!!!!!!!!! :O( It will be weird not being about 10 - 20 minutes from ANYTHING! Out here we are so close to the zoo, science center, mall, Target, etc... But it will be so nice out there!!! ;o) I hear the Washington Zoo is FREE!!!!! WHOO HOO!!!!!! Gonna be finding that place ASAP!!!!!! :O) And checking out Virgina Beach! I still can't get over the fact that they had daffodils in BLOOM!!! IN MARCH!!!!!!!!!! I told my mom and said she, well, I don't think you should move out there! That nice of weather in March, that's gonna be hard to get used too!! HA!!!!
We then left Thursday. We were supposed to have a 3 hour lay-over in Detroit, but ended up having the lay over in Richmond!!! We flew into Detroit at 4:55, and that's when they started boarding the flight to Fort Wayne... YIKES... But THANKFULLY we flew into Gate c36 and were we boarding at c32, Thank you God!!!! There was NOOO way that I could've gone any further and made it on time! Can you see me now? Running from one end of the airport to the other??? Curt was saying that he would make it home, but I would be stuck there! ;o)
Made it back ok, then onto MI Fri and Sat! We went to visit some friends of ours, then back in time for the "French Fry"!!! (Kotah kept calling it a French Fry, instead of Fish Fry) Curt's parents have a Fish Fry fundraiser every year for the school. I was having a hard time with the smells though! Ever since flying, my sense of smell, wow! Normally fish doesn't bug me that bad... I had a HARD time on the plane too? I don't know why?
Sunday we went to church, had lunch, then left to come home! I about died on Monday! I was soooooo tired!!!!!! I laid around all morning.... Took the girls to Target to get some food for supper, then they all played outside since it was soooo nice!!!!
SOOOO glad for this nice weather! I was going to get some school work done with Kotah, but am letting them just enjoy this nice weather while we have it! Plus the next couple of weeks I am going to be busy with cleaning and sorting and painting... Will start that all next week! Gonna enjoy this week first! :O)
This was the first time that I left the kids! Can you believe that! Ok, other than being in the hospital... But they got to see me during the day and then Curt was with them at nite! Gavin had a hard time the first nite, but did better the second! He was crying on the phone, I want you!!! I want you here! Boy, did I feel bad!!! :o( But he got over it and was fine! So was I! :O)
All in all it was a good week! CRAZY, but good! Am excited to be moving, but sad to leave all our friends here! But we have e-mail and all that good jazz!! :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.
