This is what tough looks like

This little lady has continued to have sinus problems this past year.  Over the course of the last year, she literally been on antibiotics more than she was off.  I'm pretty sure, the longest she was off was two weeks.  Off, on, off, on, off on, repeat and rinse.  It was not healthy.  She had been to the allergist and she wasn't allergic to the standard panel.  She doesn't drink milk, she drinks lactaid.  She takes two allergy medicines a day.  The doctor was at a loss and said our only next step was to remove her adenoids.  This mama was pretty nervous.

I shouldn't have had any doubts about this tough little lady.  She never made the first whimper.  No fussing, no whining, she never cried.  She is one tough little chick.

In fact, three hours after her surgery she had downed 3/4's of a milkshake.  We had to stop her because she was drinking it so fast!!!!!

It is getting that time.....

Really Bleeding...!!!!

I was getting ready the other day and there is a knock the door.  "Mommy I got a BooBoo"!  She does this often, so I tell her she isn't bleeding and continue on getting ready.  This is my standard response.  I was almost done, so I open my door less than a minute later and this is what I find.  Yes, she was bleeding and it was a pretty deep cut.  There wasn't the first tear shed, she is one tough chick.  She let me wash it, clean it, bandage it; the whole kit and kaboodle without a peep.  I was amazed the whole time.  She was not crazy about the band aid and wanted it off constantly.  She thought the band aid was going to magically heal the BooBoo.

Crazy Parents

Park pictures!!!  On a recent Sunday night one of the parents had a brilliant idea to go to the Park.  This parent mentioned it in front of the children and they were thrilled.  We ended up at the Park and it was HOT!  Like the most beet sweaty ready you can possibly be!!!  The Red Head is absolutely pitiful when she gets HOT.  Red and nasty sweat!!!  After the Park, we took the girls for frozen yogurt.  Ellison was thrilled, Hadley's enthusiasm was a little forced and then we found out why.....

Ummm yeah, she had a tummy ache.  You know your child doesn't feel well when this is how they wait for you to finish in an ice cream shop!

I'll take a Holt or Four

The Harper girls, love them some Holt girls.  They go wild for these young ladies and their Mama.  When I say wild, I mean they prefer them over their family.  I think they consider them their real family.  I couldn't think of three more beautiful, inside and out young ladies for these girls to look up to.
