weekend whirlwind (a picture marathon)

Our weekend whirlwind included some really special blog-a-lish moments...



Like Trevy enjoying his very first popsicle!



It took a little work helping him figure out that it was easier to eat when holding the stick as opposed to the icy part!




But once he got the hang of it...




summer became a whole new experience for him!





If you ask me...



I could skip the icy pop and just eat the delicious little kiddos up instead!




Bristel learned how to swing all by herself!




which is totally great for her...




and ME!




And how adorable is she sporting the sun kissed face and the Look At Me Mommy smile!










And Toby...our little athlete...made the Tiverton All Star team again this year!



I love to see him sporting his uniform...and game face...



And he loves to see me sporting his team's ball cap...and glowing proud mommy face!





It felt like Friday had just settled on the horizon...


when suddenly Monday was glowing over the shore. The start of a new week. Filled to the brim with the busy-ness that is our life.


::sigh::


The good thing about busy...


it doesn't leave much time for melancholy mulling.


::smile::

The pictures are great!! Looks like they got the popsicles from the ice cream truck. Tell them that Bibi is coming in August and we will eat some together on the porch. Love the swing pictures! Tell Toby that I hope to see him play something when I am there. Are all the seasons done by then? Love and kisses all around, Bibi

PS I like busy too, so the thoughts and memories are not too strong.

I just love looking at pictures of your little ones. Is it me or have they all seemed to age overnight?? *sigh*

Love the pics of Trevy enjoying his popsicle with big sis. Love the pictures of Bristel swinging. Love the game-faced baseball player. Your children are beautiful!

Bibi...the kids are looking forward to hugging you!

Adesta...I KNOW! They have all matured a lot this year!

Sharon...I'm such a sucker for kiddie feet! My kids never wear shoes! We should totally live in FL. :)

Barbara...getting Trevy to hold his popsicle right was such a trip! He immediately grabbed it by the icee part flipped it upside down and start chewing the stick! Then started crying because his little hand was freezing! But once he got the hang of it...Cuteness! He ate another one yesterday - perfectly right the first time!

Kelly...awww thanks. Your kiddos are pretty darn cute too!

I cried when I got the news

I felt like such a heel not going with Trevy for his first post hemi EEG. Yeeeeeees...Jonathan went with him. Yeeeeeees...he's just as good as me. But still! He's my baby! I was instead sitting on floor 6 east waiting for Neurology to get their boots here and help me sort out this medicine mess! Seriously it's like a bad joke...how many Neurologists does it take to write a bloody script? And fax prior authorizations? Cause Trevy's been back for hours now. And I'm STILL waiting! Anyway... Jonathan had just stepped out to meet the pizza delivery guy when Dr. EEG made his rounds. Of course I asked immediately if he had read the EEG. Of course he had. That's why he was there afterall. And I cried when he told me... that for the first time in almost two years. For the first time since this whole crazy mess began. my baby's EEG is completely normal! Side Note: It's super fun to sob in front of Japanese men and watch them squirm When I kept repeati...

I sure hope...

they grow back curly! Saw the "unknown" flashing on the face of my cell phone and knew who it was. Who it had to be. Dr. Fellow. My eyes met Grams' and I nodded. Grams has a pool, see. For super hot days like today. We're also having a septic installed. Which meant no water or facilities at my place. But those weren't really the reasons I was there. Close to mom. The purple ringing thing in my hand was. Only I wasn't prepared for it to be ringing SO darn soon. Shortly after lunch instead of dinner! I swallowed. Took a deep breath. And clicked connect. Dr. Fellow has a very nice phone tone. Clear. Hint of compassion. If only a stitch of humor were added...it'd be heavenly. But there was no humor. Just business. He's very direct. I'm learning that about him. Which explains his short hello. Followed by immediately pushing into the news. Being that it was a unanimous consensus. The entire surgical committee feels Trevor is a good candidate. And then p...

it's like being asked to the prom...

only MUCH MUCH bigger! I had noticed (yes...I stalk my site meter!) that a government ISP had logged onto Trevor's blog. Whoever it was had spent a good deal of time hanging out too. Followed a few minutes later by a government ISP...hailing from Washington. As in DC! My eyebrow raised. It was just kinda odd. Note-able odd. You know? Anyway...later that day (last week) I was folding laundry & thinking my crazy insane thoughts. Along these lines... I hope I'm not saying anything I shouldn't! Maybe I made somebody mad? Wait a minute! I live in America! I'm allowed to say anything I want! Aren't I???? A shout from the other room interrupted my thoughts before I had a chance to further mull. It was Jonathan. I had just received an email. **Side note...he's always doing that! Reading my emails! Sheesh!*** The said email was from a US Senator's aide! Asking if he could speak with me. Little ole' hardly has time to splash some make-up on ...
