Mommy Update Take 2...



It seems I spoke a bit too soon!!! I had a pretty good week last week. NO vomiting, and at this point that is a good week.. LOL Thursday was the first day in a long time that I had no nausea. It was our turn to the the concession stand for Noah's baseball and I was feeling good so I went to help.. I really sat in a chair most the time, helping out here and there.

Anyway I woke up Friday morning at 6:30am and began vomiting. At 10:30 I went to the doctor and she sent me to the ER. At 3:30 I was sent home from the ER feeling a bit better. At 5 I started vomiting again, so I called the doctor and ended up back in the ER and getting admitted. I was in the hospital until Sunday evening around 5.

I am glad to be home and laying in my own bed!!!! I am feeling a bit better.. Dan woke me up at 3:30am to take my meds, so hopefully staying on them every six hours around the clock will help some. We will see. The one good thing is that I am losing weight. Not really the ideal way to do it... Friday morning at the doctor I had lost a total of 12 lbs. I am sure I have lost even more by now.

Mommy Update

Well, first off THANK YOU to all of you who have kept me in your prayers. I have needed them.
I am doing SOMEWHAT better. The medicine is keeping me from throwing up for the most part. The other day while at the grocery store buying last minute items for Noah's party I had to pause a moment for a short toss of the cookies. Other than that I just feel crummy. I feel sick most of the time and very, very, very tired. I could sleep 12+ hours a day!!! I think I do actually!
Any way a few more weeks and we should or at least are praying we are through this!! We go back to the doctor on the 15th for a check up and get to hear the heart beat for the first time.. WHOO HOO!!! Anyway keep up the prayers and positive thought!

Happy Birthday to NOAH!!!



Well my baby, who is no longer my baby, turned 8 this past week. At church the said happy birthday to him and I started crying. #1 because my hormones, #2 because we have come a long way in 8 years!! He is such a joy to have and such a caring boy. He gives hugs and says, "I love you" just when you need it most!!!


We had planned an outside party for him and it ended up raining and COLD!!! So last minute we moved it to the church. There were 80+ people there. It was crazy and fun!! He walked away with $243 dollars and a ton of gifts. He was sooo excited. This was his last birthday as an only child so we partied it up. Here are a few pictures from the day!!

Birthday Egstravagansa...




Noah has been into golf. He loves the game. Dan has taken him to the driving range a few times and said one day we would take him golfing. So for his birthday, as a surprise we took him for the first time. It was a par three course. He did pretty good considering it was his first time and all. The 2nd hole he shot par. Boy was he excited!!! Here are a few shots from that hole! The best part was he got to go with his dad, pa-pa, grandpa Doug, grandma Pat and uncle Chris. Mom and I went, but just to watch and take lots of pictures!!!
