oh snap

How bizarre is it that Trevy knows how to snap his stubby little digits?! He can't say "mama". But he can snap!





It's a recent skill addition...which is why we all go ga-ga every time he does it. Which of course...is only when he pleases. Or someone hums the "A B C s". It's all about the little things...right?





Anyway...






In other news...






I have a major hectic week ahead. In fact...I was going to enjoy the free mansion tour perk of living in lovely Newport County. But frankly...I'm zonked. So I canned it. I mean...it's not like the mansions are going anywhere. Right?






And besides my week is already chuck full of fun! We have the withdrawal seizures...which I thought we were escaping until today! Then the CO2 labs to re-do...because they were low...which if we can't bring under control could mean major headache. Family coming to town. Zoo field trip. Various therapies to squeeze in. Toby's team made the play offs...games games everywhere! A tooth extraction... Oh I forgot to tell you guys that Bristel had another emergency dentist trip? Yep...that's right folks. An abscess can form even weeks after the mouth trauma...ugh!





And of course...the never ending regular mommy work. Laundry. Dishes. Dusting. Oh my...






No wonder I'm flippin' zonked!

We actually have a *slow* week for a change...i may have just jinxed that one. Sounds like you need a nanny too...ha ha ha!!

Isn't it amazing some of the things they can do?? Connor's new thing is pushing the handle on the ice dispenser to shoot water all over the place. I've had to start leaving it on the "ice" setting instead of the water. How that child learned that I will never know...

Isn't it amazing how all of the little things that most people take for granted are so just so precious to us! It really makes you appreciate and treasure more things in life and really celebrate the little things :)

Yes, it seems that mommy things are never really done...there is always something to do. We are off to the ped's later this afternoon...after a call to the doctor, they think Kylie may have an ear infection. *Sigh* I have quickly learned that being a mommy is being perpetually tired and constantly on the go....some days we can go faster and other days, not so much :)

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

I was talking about you today

That's right. You. Sitting there glued. To the computer screen. Getting your Trevy fix. You who hasn't been able to tear your eyes away. The one who checks back here gobs of times a day. Hanging on every post. Especially the dripping with drama or funny posts. Because you need to either laugh or cry alternately. Just like me. And somewhere...sometime...somehow...over the course of these past couple years... ...you found yourself here. Reading about me. About my family. About my Trevy. And slowly you were drawn in. Until you couldn't help yourself. You were head over heels. Unashamedly addicted. Maybe we connected in a support forum. Perhaps we're old college friends. I know we have family following. Hi guys! Some teachers and therapists. Maybe even a medical professional or two. Perhaps our kids play ball together. We might be FaceBook friends. Or you could be a friend of a friend. Even a complete stranger. But to us... you each have a very special pla...

runaway

I tend to be a live out loud kinda girl. But sometimes... well...sometimes life is just so heavy. So intense. So overwhemling. That it brings out the recluse in me. Like lately. The thing is...I know it'll pass. It always does. And I'll learn something. Grow. Hopefully. Survive. Certainly. Because I have to. It's just right now. In this particular heavy moment. I would much rather run away to some tropical paradise and sip martinis until Jonathan calls to tell me Trevy's back at home. Happy. And seizure free. With a new head of curls covering the scar and bouncing around the house. I am a coward after all. I've never denied that. And I really don't want to live through this next month. Which is probably why my posts will be random. At best.
