......no, no....where have you been?? I have been here, working away, mommying, cleaning, pre-oping, 5king, treveling, e.r.-going...I have been here....I just haven't been here...you know? I have been busy....let's start where I last remember, and where I want to start (it is my blog) last Thursday. So, last Thursday was busy....busy busy busy. I was PTOing all morning and most of the afternoon. Then, I was mommying most of the evening until the kids went to bed, and then I was cleaning. Why was I cleaning you ask? Well...I didn't clean all day...and MY MOM was coming in just a few short hours!!! So, I clean for my ma.....like she taught me to when I was little. So, I get my house clean, my mom and Frederick come and we are all happy and sleepy...so we say hello and goodnight...and go to bed....in my very clean home mind you.
Then comes Friday...we are still happy and helloing and sending Allie off to school only to be picked up an hour and a half later...she had a spelling test (110%...just saying) that morning. While Allie is at school, Frederick decides to go see Stephen at the clinic....because he felt sick. So Stephen gets Frederick all fixed up. In the mean time, we are off to get Allie. I go into the office and wait and wait...it took longer than normal. After a few minutes...she comes walking into the office with her teacher holding her face....with a look that tells me she's trying not to cry. Turns out she fell in PE and busted her lip open...it was puffy and bloody and she was sad. So....we did what always makes us feel better...WE GOT DONUTS!!! Woot! Woot! Then we meet up with Froderick and head to college station to see some holy cross baseball!! The drive was uneventful, but once we landed in college station....the fun began! We dropped Fred off at the hotel...he's sick remember..and go to target....where Kaitlin threw up in the palm of my hand. After this, we opt not to go to the game, but go to Arby's go back to the hotel and fight with the clerk there to get a crib for Super (barfy) Kate. Once, this is done, Steve makes it to town and then we retire for the evening.
On to Saturday....where we end up in the ER with ole Super Kate! Here's the scoop...we (Kate and I) were walking down the hall of the hotel. I had my arms full and was holding Kaitlin's hand and she went limp...and was hanging there. I tried to put her down and she wouldn't put her feet down, we tried this a couple times, before I gave up and let go...a couple hours later, after watching Kaitlin not use her arm at all...we take her to the ER. One dislocated elbow, popped back into place, and we are at the baseball game. We take the girls to the playground at the stadium to play, and Kaitlin throws up on the playground....so, mom and I take the girls and go home.
Some days...my kids totally give me a ruuuunnnn for my money!!
