First of all..... If you aren't watching Duck Dynasty you can't be friends with us. Just kidding but seriously, this yuppie girl LOVES Wednesday nights!! Not only is the show just hilarious but at the end of every show they are gathered around the table saying grace and eating dinner together. Find it and watch it people!!!!
Our windows are finally all in. Our house feels brand new! Who knew windows and counter tops could make such a big change? Should have done it years ago! Anyway, we've totally changed the house around. I got my old desk back and am so happy about that. You can tell it's been through hell but I'm very grateful to have it. I've decided to move one of the antiques into our living room. I'm done with going out buying new stuff that is expensive and doesn't hold up. I am lucky enough to have some very high quality things that I'm now like, why am I not using this? I hope it works out the way I see it in my head :)
Now that we have zero construction going on in the house, I'm trying to hold myself back from bringing the painters in. Really I can't until my brother's crew comes in and does the woodwork I want done because I don't want painters in here twice. We are going on vacation first.
Vacation... I'm super excited about it! Hotels are booked and I ordered our tickets to Sea World today. I am super duper excited for the kids because we are going to Sea World before the park opens to have breakfast with the Sesame Street gang! They are going to flip out when they see Elmo and Cookie Monster!! I can't wait!!!!
We finally have our appointment to see the Endocrinologist but it isn't until April. I met with the owner of the speech company Thursday to go over so evaluations she did. She went to see how the kids are eating while at school and she was a little shocked at the amount of food my kids eat vs. their peers. First off, please tell me who the hell sends their kids to school with just a yogurt and grapes for lunch? The speech lady said your kids had a big thing of pasta, yogurt, fruit, and water. She said they didn't play at all and ate the entire 45 minutes kind of robotic while their peers kept being told to finish their small lunches. She said the thing that stood out to her was our kids were consuming so much more food but are so much smaller than their peers. Which is what I've been saying for almost two years now. But I was floored when she told me that the kids around them were literally eating that little of food. Seriously, yogurt and grapes?? Moving on from that, our kids are such good eaters but they aren't growing so I'm so excited to meet with the Endocrinologist.
We are still waiting to see if we will be able to get into Shriner's Hospital for the upper extremities Orthopedic. I hope to hear from the next week. We do have her last appointment in two weeks with her Orthopedic that did her leg surgery. We are so pleased with the results. It was one heck of a surgery and I hate she had to go through it but it has benefited her so much. She can walk without any problems, and she can "run" and keep up with her sissy and bubby. We are so proud of her!
Ricky is off this weekend. He really wants to take the kids to the Rodeo but I'm not sure. Everyone and their third cousin will be there because it's the weekend. He might kill me if I plan any chores though so we are better off just being away from the house for the weekend ;)
I had to take the kiddos grocery shopping tonight and they were so well behaved. I didn't have a single problem out of them and it was a big shopping trip too. We got home and Madi said "Mommy, I'm hungry. I want dinner" smart little cookie but that started the other two with their "hungry mommy" and I couldn't unload and put up the groceries fast enough and make their dinner. Sometimes and some days I need to be cloned.
