Happy Anniversary!!!

Well like an idiot, I forgot to tell you that on this past Saturday was Jory and my 5 year wedding Anniversary! It started out crummy, but ended nicely. (Get your mind out of the gutter!!!!) On Friday, Jory told me that he told my dad that he would work for part of the day. I said okay because the job payed like $50/hour! He would be stupid to turn that down. Well he thought that he would be done around 2pm or so. That was fine I said I would go to lunch with one of my friends. Well I did not end up going to lunch, Christian was still sick so I opted not to go. So around 2pm Jory calls and said it would be more like 4pm before they were done. Okay I said...I was a little irritated, but what can you do right? So I call him back around 3pm and ask if he wanted me to drop off Christian to my parents, or if he wanted me to wait for him, he said no go ahead and that he would be home around 6pm. AHHHH by that statement I was ticked off. I have no idea why I was SO ticked, but I was. I felt like my whole anniversary was wasted by myself. After all it was on a Saturday and I wanted to spend as much time with him as possible! That is not too much to ask for!?! Anywho, I drop Christian off and then come home and wait, and wait and wait. Jory calls and said that he was starving and he could not wait to see me. Already it is getting better! When he gets home he gets all cleaned up and we head down to the Plaza. I wanted to eat at Bucca di Beppo. It is a really good Italian restruant down on the Plaza. Jory then asked me what I wanted to do after that. Movie, carriage ride, shop? Well I said I would like to see a movie, but I needed to run to Victoria's Secret to get a new white bra, I ended up getting a new nightgown too! It is really soft and pretty. We when to the theater down on the plaza and saw the new Angelina Jolie movie, Wanted. It was pretty good, I enjoyed it, however I wish that there was not so much cussing. They used the "F" word alot. I don't like that! Oh well once I got past that, it was good. So anyway Jory treated me to a good night out on the big town! He did good! I love him more and more each day!

That is all I got today!

Paranoid Mama and the ER run!

HA HA now you know I am paranoid! Now that I have recovered from the night before last, I will tell you about it!

Well it all started on Thursday morning, Christian woke up with a fever of 101.5*. Well he has had that high of a temp before, so I gave him some Tylenol and went to the gym. We came home and played, he was acting normal. He played hard, and when I made him lunch he looked at it and started crying! He normally digs right into his corn dog when I cook that for him! So he did not eat lunch and so I took him upstairs to take his nap. After all he was crying and he just looked tired. There were no objections from him when I took him up there and said lay down and when you wake up GRANDMA WILL BE HERE!!!! He loves his grandma! skipping a few hours....He woke up from his nap and was really cuddly. He felt warm but not hot! Skipping a few more hours...by that evening however he was on fire! I gave him some Motrin drops this time and he just wanted to cuddle and did not want to eat. Oh he was drinking like there was no tomorrow, but not eating. He went to bed and I finished my Star Wars series! LOL and at 3am he came into my room coughing and wheezing with 104.5* temp! I freaked out and woke Jory up and said that we better take him the the ER. He said that I should just put him in a cold bath. I said you try and put him in a cold bath when it is 3am and he already has the chills! He said okay and I layed Christian down with Jory while I threw on something other than Pjs. By the time I got done brushing my teeth,( it only took me a minute to get dressed and brush my teeth) I went back into the room and Jory was sweating. He said this kid is HOT!!!! I said see why I want to take him to the ER!?!? We went to Menorah Medical Center, that is where he was born, and there was no one there! They were able to get him in right away! We saw a really nice doctor and he said that his body is just fighting off some kind of infection. I was worried it was Pneumonia or something like that! Thank God it wasn't. So basically I am a paranoid mama and we spent $100 for my peace of mind! Oh well he (the doctor) said that I did do the right thing. I have always been told if the fever reaches 104* to take them to the hospital. So that is what we did! Christian is STILL not feeling better, but he at least slept all night last night. Poor kid he has been so sick lately, and I just can't seem to make him feel better. He just likes to snuggle and so we have been doing a lot of that the last couple of days. I am so glad that I can be there for when he calls "Mama, Dadda, Mama" I love just sitting with him and he just lays his head down on my shoulder! I love being a mom! Nothing can take that good feeling away....until he does something bad!!! LOL So that is my story!

Anonymous???

Who are you??? Just wondering? If you could please put your name on your comment so I know who you are!!! I like the advice, but I would like to know who you are! LOL

Update on the Tongue!

Okay we went to the doctor today for Christian's tongue. The verdict is in....his tongue is tied! He will have to have it clipped. I have made the appointment for July 22. Dr. Brack said that her son had to have it done and it is no big deal. It will just feel like a mouth sore once he has it done. Like I said I am not too worried about it, but I want him to be able to put his tongue to the roof of his mouth and he can't do that right now! So anywho that is what happened! Just thought I would let you know!
Ciao

Bored....bored....bored!

Well well, I don't have much to say, except that I am currently in to movies that have more than one to them. AKA... Harry Potter, X-Men, Lord of the Rings, and the current one that I am watching right now, is Star Wars!!!! LOL I am SUCH A DORK!!!! I know most of you are thinking, what on earth does she do all day! Well now you know! I am just kidding I do more than just watch movies all day. I clean, shop, do laundry, shop, go to my Mom's house, shop and did I mention SHOP!!! Jory would say I am obsessed! Not a good thing to be addicted to. It is a good way to go broke! I really don't shop that much. I have been getting better about it. Jory would be proud! I went to Target the other day and I made a list and I STUCK to it! Yea for me! I told you I am getting better! So if you have made it this far down, you can probably tell that Jory is out of town again! Now I know a little how Jenny feels. Poor gal she NEVER gets to see Jeremy! I will most likely not see Jory or sleep in the same bed as him till Thursday night! I know that is not a long time, but it doesn't mean that I don't miss him or that Christian misses him. Just tonight he (Christian) got all upset that Jory wasn't here to eat dinner with him. So sad, but I took a picture of him kissing my phone to send to him. My Phone was all wet, but it was a cute picture of his lips! LOL I guess I will not take up anymore of your time! You have better things to do then listen to me ramble! Samuel L Jackson is kicking the Sith Lords' butt in Star Wars!!! I know, I know I am a DORK!!! Woops he just died! Oh well, I guess that is it! Ciao!

Tongue Tied and Potty training!

Well we think that Christian has his tongue tied down. He can't stick his tongue out all the way, he has like a heart shaped tongue! Jory noticed it a few weeks back. I was not real worried about it at first and I am not right now, but everyone that I have talked to says that I should have it clipped now, rather then later! So on Weds morning he has an appointment with Dr. Brack, and I am sure that she will send him to a specialist for it! I hope that with his tongue being tied, it has not messed with his speech. He has a hard time with "T's" and "P's" His "please" is "cheese" It was cute at first, but now I actually want him to say "Please". Well I should not expect too much from him, he is only 21 months! I can understand him, even when no one else can. He has been kissing, with the lip smack! LOL He is SOOOO cute!

******

Potty training.....where to start! Hummmm!?!?!? I ask him everyday if he went pee pee or poo poo! He has been telling me the correct answer. I have decided not to push him into it. When he does sit on the big boy potty, I DO make a big deal about it. He thinks that it is a fun game. I have not recently been able to get him to actually go potty when he sits on the toilet. But he thinks it is fun! So that is where I am at on toilet training! Does anyone have any advice??

****

That is all I have for now!

Okay okay I know!! Here are the pictures!!!!

Okay I know that I said that I would put some pictures of Christian and his new pool on the blog. Here is why I haven't done it yet...

I had to run to Target yesterday afternoon and by the time we got back and I got all of his clothes boxed up that do not fit him anymore, It was time for me to cut a couple of ladies hair! He is not allowed outside without me anymore because of the pool. So needless to say he did not get to swim yesterday! To top it off it is raining today! I will soon post some more pictures of him! He is SOOOOOO cute!

We are off to the lake this weekend and hopefully will be able to post some pictures of him in the lake water! That is all I have for now
Ciao!

Pool Time

Well last year we got Christian a little baby pool that is padded on the bottom and had toys ect. on it. It is TOO small for him this year, so Jory and I got him a new one. It is not real fancy, but it has a slide and Christian LOVES it. I like it too, not to mention. I put my feet in it an read while he is playing. I am always right there just in case he needs me.

We spend so much time outside, I love my back yard and my neighbors. They are so nice. We were outside on Sunday, Fathers Day, and my neighbor behind us was sitting outside with her dogs and she yelled "Dyan, your son is SO cute!" Then she asked if we liked cake and I said yes, a little too much. LOL and she brought over a few pieces of cake over to us! So nice! Our other neighbors are really nice too! We are so lucky to live in a nice neighborhood!

We are getting ready to go down to the lake this weekend. We will be coming back on Saturday night, because I will have to be at church on Sunday! So it will hopefully be a relaxing trip, but a quick one!

Speaking of church...tonight is the first board meeting and my dad is on the board. Hopefully it will be a great first meeting. There is a lot of changes going on in the church and It will be nice to have fresh views on the board. Hopefully we will be getting a new pastor soon. I really miss the Pusey's. I really hope that they are enjoying Idaho! So I guess I would have you pray for the board meeting tonight!

I guess I really don't have any other random thoughts right now. I will post pictures of Christian in his new pool when he wakes up from his nap today!

Ciao

An Update!!! (I added pictures!!!)

Hey Everyone! I wanted to let you know that I have updated since Jory's Birthday! LOL I must have deleted it by accident! OOPS my bad! Anywho... We just got back from Oklahoma this past weekend for the Swim Family reunion. It was a TON of fun! I was so happy to see family that we have not seen since Jenny and Jeremy's wedding. Dad #2, Jeremy and Jory all rode down on the motorcycles and Jen and I drove down in the car with the boys. Jenny started off riding on the back with Jeremy and when we stopped for food in Gardener, KS we switched. We stopped right out side of Emporia to get some gas, and I got sick. I think it was from the McDonald's that we ate! Oh boy how I hate fast food! So I did not ride anymore that day, and Jen drove. I felt bad because I think that she wanted to ride more but she thought that I was still felling bad. It was nice of her to drive, but I wish that she had told me that she wanted to ride more. Sorry Jen! Anyway, We had a great time. I got Christian some clothes at a garage sale for like $15 bucks. Good clothes! They are like Gymboree and Carters, they all look like new to me! Staci found some awesome deals too! We ended up leaving on Sunday morning, because it was supposed to rain. Luckily we missed the rain! I was glad to be done with the drive home! It was a stressful one for me! I got us lost! I don't get lost very often but for some reason I dicided that I wanted to go on another turnpike! The directions said to take the turnpike so I did! LOL It was the WRONG ONE!!! Of course it was, so .90c later we were back on track! Well we made it home that is all that counts! Not much else is going on in my life. Jory is going down to the lake this weekend. Our friends Adam and Paula have a lake house that belongs to Paula's parents. Well they are going down to do some work around the house. Like spray for Poison Oak and Ivy and put a railing around the porch. Stuff like that. I thought that Christian and I would just stay home. It would be easy to stay out of the way if we weren't down there! It will be a working trip anyways so no going on the boat. It is going to be a fast trip too. They are coming back on Saturday night. Sunday is Fathers Day. This is Jory's 2nd Fathers Day. He is such a great daddy! I love watching him and Christian interact! It is so cool the bond that they already have. Christian wants to be just like his daddy! Mow mow...That is what Christian says when Jory gets home! That means he wants to go an play on the mowers on the trailer. He knows how to drive them, just by watching Jory. Anyways, I think that is all I got for today! Oh yeah, if you are going to leave a comment and you don't have a Google account, please post your name with your comment! Thanks! I like to know who is posting comments!

Here are some Pictures from The ride sown to Oklahoma. Enjoy
