Last Week: The face says it all!


Last week wasn't the easiest. We saw a lot of the above expression. Sleepless nights. On Wednesday K fell and hit her lip and teeth on the hardwood floor. I took her to the dentist and he told me we had a 50% chance the tooth would turn dark and then another 50% chance that it might lighten back up. I cried. The dentist and his hygentist hugged me. The goth teenager sitting in the chair next to us had to think I was a total nut job. That's okay... I was at that moment. My stress level was at about one million. So on Thursday we decided to go to Florence. Allen was going for work and Tripp and I planned to go along with him. K was spending the night with her grandparents. Well, I had a stomach ache on the way down that day. No idea what from. Anyway, that transferred to Tripp that night and he was fussy all night long. No sleep. So when I am finally getting some sleep, the fire alarm went off. All I can think is get dressed and get my newborn out of the building so the rediculously loud siren doesn't give him permanent hearing loss! I gather all our stuff and the baby and walk down the stairs since you cant ride an elevator during a fire alarm. Only to find that they are working on the fire alarm and accidentally tripped it. grrrrrr. So then I go back upstairs and my key doesn't work. are you kidding me?!?! So I leave all of my stuff by the door and go back to the front desk. At that point the waterworks begin again. We got enough points on our honors card for a free stay sometime. So I guess the hormones did work in our advantage this time. Anyway, here's to a better week!


Kaylen started her weekly camp. The theme changes each week and this week was cheerleading. Too cute! She will go every Friday so stay tuned for more updates on that. This week we are getting family pictures. It is actually a jam-packed week full of fun things so I will update next week!!!

I promise I have that effecr on babies. I bet he has been fine ever since I left, right?:) Hope next week is easier-I enjoyed hanging out and I promise next time I bring food it will be better than Wendy's.

Your week sounds a lot like my last three weeks, but it's gets better, right? (at least that's what I have to keep reminding myself)

That just brings back all kinds of memories. I can't tell you how much I cried in the first month when I had both girls. Buckets. I can't wait to come see you. Do you have a preferred time of day for visitors? You know I went to St. Louis last week, but I'm home now for a bit.

Oh, Dawn. I about cried FOR you. That fire alarm thing would have been the end of my sanity for sure. Grrrrrr.
