My Poor Little Guy Has Pneumonia

He's doing fairly well, after 5 shots of rocephin and breathing treatments. He was just starting it when we caught it, so he didn't end up in the hospital. He tires easily and gets cranky if things don't go his way (ok he gets that from his dad!).

He's so excited for Grandma to come on Sunday, so I'm hoping he's well by then. He's been out of school since Thursday.

It's going to be a long winter if we're starting this already in August!!!! *SIGH*

What's in a name?

Ok I know you're suppose to wait to be tagged, but heck that could be ions for me!!! LOL I thought this looked like fun and I only have 3 letters in my middle name!!!

What's in a name?

1. You have to post these rules before you give the facts.
2. Players, you must list one fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.
3. When you are tagged you need to write your own blog-post containing your own middle name game facts.
4. At the end of your blog-post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

K - Kick Ass Quality Assurance Analyst

A - A lame Blogger

E - Exceptional Klutz (hence the broken toe)

Ok so I'm gonna tag.. Christine Rissy Jan

If I can make it there.... I'll make it anywhere...


New York New York.

Here's the photo that the NDSS chose for the Times Square Video! We're tickled pink!

I wish we could go out for the Buddy Walk, but it's just not going to work out. I'm hoping one of our East Coast friends will snap a pic when Alex is up in lights!!!

First Day of Second Grade!

Of course we didn't get a picture... what do you think we are??? Good parents??? LOL

We've all been sick with a nasty summer cold and mom is the latest casuality! I got him dressed, his backpack loaded and daddy took him to daycare. I went back to bed!

I can't believe my little guy is in second grade. He loves school. He gets to be with his girlfriend Kyra again too. They've been together since they were 3!!!

I'm hitting the couch! Dr Keith is on! Enjoy little man!

Back on the Diet


Ok, I'm back on the diet. I've gained back a few pounds from my last go around and the ole waistband is starting to get snug. Doesn't help that the toe is still causing me problems and I can't really walk much.

So goodbye Dingdongs.... goodbye Dairy Queen...goodbye french fries! I'm sorry to see you go and I am having major withdrawls right now.... can't someone invent carrot sticks that taste like Godiva chocolate????

Give Kids the World


I was thinking about GKTW today, after Alex wore his T-shirt from there. What a magical place. It makes me sad to think we won't ever go back. I would love to take him back next year, he loved it so much.

If you're so inclined to find a charity, I highly recommend this place. If you know of a terminally ill or a child with a life threatening illness, please direct them to Make A Wish and GKTW in Orlando. I cannot stress enough how every child was just a child, no medical issues, no handicaps, no differences. What a break from the grind of everyday living. Not to mention the ice cream shoppe rocks!

Here's some links.... including our personal pics from there! Check it out! And thanks for reading.
