Adenoids are No April Fools Joke :(

So Sean took Lani yesterday for allergy testing. We were supposed to have it done over spring break and my poor baby ended up with strep throat.

Now as you know I try to schedule every appointment so that I can be there, but unfortunately there was no way around this one. I had Sean text me once he got there, and when i called back, the doctor just happened to come in. I felt like i was getting to be there in spirit, so that was comforting.

The doctor talks for second then says that Lani has a sinus infection, and her adenoids and tonsils are swollen. to make matters worse he decided that she needed to have an x~ray to decide whether or not she needs to have the removed asap!!! All I heard was "SURGERY!" (cue tears)

So now we are waiting to hear back whether or not she will need another surgery, as well as letting us know exactly what she is allergic too...

PLEASE KEEP MY BABY DOLL IN YOUR PRAYERS

5 Question Friday!!!! (a day late)

 

 

1. Have you ever had surgery?

actually i have had quite a few. mostly minor day surgeries: dental, stye removal, and a couple other but the big ones were my c-section and ACL repair

2. Ever ride in an ambulance?

at first i was going to say no, but then i remember when my grandma had a stroke my freshman year in college.  i rode in the ambulance with her to the hospital since i was the only person she recognized. One of the paramedics owned the Marble Slab next to RHS and asked me if i was the girl who always came in and ate his ice cream for free??? lol... i have no idea what ur talking about

3. How are you in a medical emergency? Panicked? Calm?

generally im the calm one.  surprising i know, but its true.  i think i get it from my mom.  everyone is usually balling and a wreck but i always try to stay logical and look at the brighter side of thing.  i try to remember; it can always be worse.

 

4. Do you have a garden? Flowers or veggies?

NEGATIVE... i was blessed with a black thumb. everything dies. i used to plant flowers in my yard when i first move in, but always forget to water (shrugs). maybe in our next home we will have a sprinkler system

5. When did you move out of your parents house?

i moved back in when i moved back for student teaching, my last semester of college. and that lasted all of about 4 months before we started to drive each other crazy.  so in August of 2005 i moved into my parents rental home, and purchased it in 2006.  We actually still live here.  In fact Lani's room was my room as a child.    

Wishful Wednesday: Home

'I wish' .... I could come home to this house everyday!

5 Question Friday!!!! (i know its been a while)

1. Have you ever testified in court? For what?

Nope! cant say i had that pleasure.  I did have a car accident that went to court once because the lady was a wack-o, and i was prepped for questioning but never had to.  

2. Do you still have your wedding dress?

Yes I do... not sure what to do with it.  Thought about selling it once (dont tell my mom, she spent alot on it). Originally i was thinking i would pass it down to Lani, and while my dress was **Fabulous** I'm sure she is gonna

 want to wear her own dream dress.

3. Is there a special place you like to go when you're happy, sad, stressed, etc.?
Yes.  there is a park by my house i go to whenever i'm upset.  

4. If you have kids, do they sleep with you? If you don't have kids...will you let your kids sleep with you when/if you have them?
well.... she's not supposed to but she does for at least part of the night. 
Or house was broken into when she was little so i have a panic attack every time she stays in here room.  So now she sleeps in a pack-n-play next to our bed, but climbs into our bed most nights.

5. Do you watch late night TV?
That would imply that i'm up late enough to watch late night tv... so i'm going to go with a big fat NO on that one.  but when i was up with Lani, i would watch Chelsea Lately
