Surgery

Thursday morning I had surgery. Nothing major, just to remove a cyst.

I had 2 options...do it in office, and i could feel and see everything they were doing, or do it in surgery and i would be asleep and not feel a thing..

I chose the 2nd one. Since my horrific expierence when i was in Labor, the last thing i wanted to do was see or feel anything that was involving needles.

Surgery went well, I had to be there at 7:30 A.M. and by the time it was all said and done, i was home by noon!

I really miss my husband and i wish that he was here during times like this, i could really use some help espcially with the baby. I just want to sleep and get the pain to go away but rest is not an option when you have a 10 month old crazy child!!

Well today, I wasn't up to a whole lot, just sort of hung out...Well, for now i'm off to finish homework, laundry and bathing and putting this baby to bed!!

goodnight!

Oh the memories..

Well, tonight i sat here thinking about how incredibly lucky i am to have such an amazing family.

And then i realized, holy crap my kid is about to be 1 years old. Where has the time gone?

So tonight, i leave you with just a few of my favorite pictures...

Sleep, clean, school....Where does it end?

Happy Tuesday! =)

Well, i LOVE rain!! I love waking up to rain, and i love thunderstorms. So, today has been great!

Yesterday, we went to lunch with my mom! We went to Applebees, YUMMY! One of my favorites for sure! After that, we didn't really do anything else. We came home and Aubree went down for a nap, and i layed out by the pool for a few hours...much needed that's for sure.

Aubree slept until about 6! Wow! She got up, ate some dinner, played for a few hours, and bed time at 9! She slept so good last night, and didn't wake up until about 8:30 this morning. Awesome for me!

Well today- we have a few things on our agenda-

1- mail daddy's care package

2- get mommy's eye brows done

3- pick up mommy's HS transcripts

4- School for mommy!

Sick and tired...

I may not be the one who is sick, but my little bug is...

and it breaks my heart seeing her this way...

For the past 4 days or so, she has had a fever of about 102-103. I can't break it with tylenol or motrin.

It hurts me to see her in so much pain.

This afternoon was my breaking point...Her temp was still at 102, so I decided to take her in. I wanted to take her into the after hours acute child care, but they didn't take our insurance, so off to the emergency room it was.

We went to Baylor right behind my house, and man they had great service! I will for sure go back there for any future needs..

Once we got there, her temp had dropped to 100.1...go figure. But once they got us a room, it shot back up.

The Doc did a little exam, turns out my bug has an Ear infection in her left ear as well as an upper resporitry infection.

As soon as they said that i wanted to cry. Knowing there wasn't anything I could do to fix it. They also tested for Strep and flu, both came back negative.

So we hung out for a little bit,and Aubree even got a popsicle!

She only took a few bites, so mommy finished the rest =)

Well, Aubree is sleeping sound right now, so i think it's my turn for some rest. Untill next time...

Seriously busy friday!

Today it was GORGEOUS outside! When i got up this morning, i was even a bit chilly! Crazy to think that last friday it was 100 degress outside!!

Well my day started out this morning at a bright and early 7:00. I had a doctor appointment with the General Surgeon at 9. And if any of you know what it's like to have a child, everything takes about an hour longer then what you expect. So i was hoping to shower and get out the door by 8:30. I sure did, and even got to stop by starbucks. It's my secret obsession!

Well, after my consultation with my surgeon, i'm going in for surgery next thursday. Nothing major, just have this lump i need to get removed off my abdomen. He gave me 2 options, i can have it done in office which invovled the sticking of needles in my stomach and i could feel it, or they would knock me out and procede that way. I chose the second option. I'm already a big wuss when it comes to needles, and the fact that i would be able to see them going into my stomach did me in.

Well after that, we came home and Aubree went down for a much needed nap...she didn't even fight it she was so tired. I even took a short nap my self. It felt good!

After lunch, I took Aubree to the park. Needless to say, i think she enoyed it!

The rest of the day is going to be filled with a "Camp Rock 2" viewing party. Linzy is having a bunch of friends over (a bunch of 7 year old girls) to watch the movie. This will be interesting.

Yoga?

So latley, i've been hearing all this hype about Yoga.

Not all it's cracked up to be, thats for sure.

I just wasn't interested...but i figured i would give it my best shot. I can do the poses and such, i just need something more up-beat. I wanted to go to sleep most of the class...

My little bug is still sick =( I can't stand seeing her this way...makes my heart hurt thats for sure. I hope that tomorrow she is feeling better, if not I think it may be time to hit the doctors. Boo.

Other then that, nothing spectacular happened today. I am however EXTREAMLY ready for the summer to be over, and fall to get here! I am not looking forward to spending the Holidays with out my Husband, but if all goes as planned he should be home for Christmas. Fingers crossed!!!

The last Deployment, the holidays were a really rough time for me. They were our first Holidays as a married couple, and we couldn't even spend them together. It really sucked. I think this year it's going to be even harder for me..mainly because of Aubree. Im preparing myself ahead of time for some tears shed, and some suepr lonely nights. I am thankful to be home with my family though.

Needs sleep..

Today was very...boring i guess you could call it.

We got up, ate breakfast..played..hung out...Aubree took 2 naps, and then it was time to get ready for school....

Went to school until about, 9....

Came home...

Scanned Chad's awards and such that he asked me too, and now im laying in bed trying to figure out how im so tired...

And then it dawned on me...I stay up until almost midnight playing around online, and then get up around 6 or 7. DUH JENNIFER. 6 hours of not great sleep is NOT enough!!!

So, its 11:40 im going to try to go to bed.
