Busy!

So... Halloran had a double ear infection! After puking Friday night and Saturday night, I thought it was time to bring her in...

Don't you just love Same Day Clinic?? Two and a half hours later I get the diagnosis that took us two minutes, well, not even, to get to. Two minutes, no more like 1 minute 3 seconds. At least Halle was having a good time there. Her new word is "Hi" but it looks and sounds more like"HIIIIIIIIIaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh"! So freakin cute! So of course she had to show everyone there that she's such a big girl now and say hello.

It was really nice though, because I gave her the medicine in the car before we drove home, because, I knew she was going to crash! On the way home I called my sister, bawling (I'm really good at that lately), and vented on how frustrating it is having a sick child like literally once a month and blah blah blah! Courtney, knowing we still had to go birthday shopping for the kids, said, "I'll be over in 10 minutes...you and Tom go shopping." Tears stopped.

So I laid Halloran down, Courtney came over and Tom and I went shopping in North Branch! Courtney called us an hour in to shopping and I thought, "Oh no, Halle's puking." But nope! She called to say stay longer and go out to eat! So we went to the Green Iguana in North Branch! It is such a cute little Mexican eatery! We were very impressed and are definitely going to go there again!

What a nice Sunday!

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

Round two!

I got to come home for a little bit and play with Brady and Halle, give them a bath (me a shower) and then laid them down for a nap. I took some ibuprofen, I think I have an overdose of a "caffeine, lack of sleep, still wearing my contacts" headache! So now I am going to try and nap a little and then it's back to the hospital with Shelby for round two of SLUMBER PARTY AT THE HOSPITAL WITH A SICK BABY! Not worthy of all caps joy, but I'm trying to be optimistic about it all! So we had a rough night last night, she didn't sleep for a full hour from 9-1am, then she had a bit of an issue with her nebulizer treatment (meaning she didn't like it) and then her IV came out. Yadda yadda. Finally at 3 am she was ready to settle down and then she slept till 7am. On my chest. Luckily I was tired enough to get most of that sleep as well, until about 6:30ish. I just feel so bad for her! I felt bad for me a little too about 1:00 am. I wanted to just cry my eyes out from bein...

Who did we welcome home TODAY????

Shelby Capri Bergman 6 lbs. 5 oz. , 19.5 inches long May 30th, 2008 10:52 pm I just want you all to know that everything went picture perfect. She's beautiful, she's healthy and she's very content. I don't have a ton of pictures yet, my mom took pictures during delivery and I took some today when we got home, but since we don't have internet at home now, it will be slow coming! I had my membranes stripped at 9:45 am on Friday. Afterwards, Tom and I went to Walmart, Applebees's, my sister's classroom to help move some stuff (I supervised... I was a little sore), and then home. I took a nap and Tom started getting ready for supper. His 4 hour long, grilled ribs...and that is how the story begins! So we keep joking that I am going to go during his first trial run with the ribs. This starts at around 3:30 pm. Then, we run out of propane and start all over a...
