Well good grief! I logged on earlier today and never posted anything after I read..... I'm so brain dead today!
Ansley spent the night with my parents last night and I stayed up later than usual with the knowledge I'd get to sleep in today....well, at 8 a.m., my mom called to tell me that Ansley was sick and I needed to pick her up since my nephews were also there. Needless today, not exactly what I had planned for the day. Her last episode was around 9 this morning and since then she's been fine. Great news, but still no sleep.
Only 4 more days of school left for students---6 official days for us. I'm pretty sure that it's going to take more than that to get everything packed up and ready to move though, but it's a nice thought.

Liz and Laura: Big hugs to both of you! Tracy: Boo on the no extra sleep! I hope Ansley feels better soon! Had Elim's 15 month checkup today! He's 24 lb 9 oz (70%), and 31.75 inches tall (50-60%)! Got three shots which he was not happy with, especially when I laid him back down after to fasten up his pants.

Lil' Elim has officially passed Micah in the weight department... he's got about an inch on him... but I'm guessing Elim will make short work of that! Bummer on the shots! I gotta bring Micah in to finish one set up and I'm totally procrastinating! Tracy- Booo on less sleep. Hope Ansley feels better soon. Katie- I had to laugh because the other day for some reason I thought winter was coming... I forgot we hadn't had summer yet!  Monday Monday...

aww so cute our little boys are....poor little buggas but with those shots..hated doing it to Maddie...felt guilty OMG this heartburn is no joke. Told my dr but he suggested a scope...aahhh not happening...said I would deal but gotta say its times like this I wanna shove the tube down my own throat. Its so bad two weeks ago I thought I was actually having a heart attack...almost made Keith call 911  I've been popping tums like candy and swore it was coming back worse 30 minutes later...only to tonight google it and said that tums does that because of the calcium. ...so mad.
I can usually deal with pain and annoying things..not a complainer with that but this is unreal. Its even in my back. Help...any ideas. Scared to try the watermelon thing that I just read on google, scared any food would make it worse. (ok done complaining,,,,dont want anyone to think I'm that annoying preggo with the audacity to complain)

Lauren: No way, really?! He has been packing it in recently. Jessica: Are you to the point that you can take something more than tums? I think I was taking pepcid with Elim, pretty sure that's the one I was on, I had to take that every day twice a day but I forget when I started it. If I missed one single dose I paid for it for two or three days. Sleeping (or lack of it) was miserable, it just hurt so much to lay down! Don't feel bad for complaining, some things just suck and that doesn't make you appreciate your little miracle any less! Oh, the worst thing about today? His pediatrician is leaving the practice. Seriously, this just sucks! They're not supposed to leave us, we're supposed to leave them when the military moves us!! Ugh, so totally super bummed. Good thing is she gave me her schedule (but I forgot it) for working at the urgent care clinic that takes our insurance, but still, she won't be his doctor anymore. We'll just switch to her partner who we've seen just as often but yeah, we loved her. She's going to a less-stress job with 2 days a week, only sick calls so she can stay at home with her little girl more often and wants another baby (her daughter was a clomid baby) and have been trying for awhile with no success, so less stress is the answer.

Jessica - Sorry for the heartburn. Yeah, go for Pepcid. You need relief and sleep:)
Stacy - That does stink! I'm sorry your pediatrician is leaving, but as I read more, I totally understand the stress part of the equation. Hope it works out for her and glad to know that you've got a second ped in mind to fill her shoes.
Liz- HI!
I had a meeting today with my DDD coordinator. How did it go? Well, we were able to start the process of getting some services approved. The speech is my #1 right now, so that will most likely be the only thing happening immediately for Mr. T. The visit was long and so many things/issues were brought up. I wish people would keep their religious beliefs to themselves sometimes:(

Ugh, that stinks about the pediatrician. It's so hard to find one you love and trust.
Jess, I never had bad heartburn with either pregnancy but my SIL said that almonds and milk would help hers, but the calcium in milk would prob cause the same prob as the calcium in Tums.
Hi Liz!
So we had Nathan's IEP meeting (did I already talk about this) and not much changed. Still no one cares about the bus issue, he's currently getting NO services since they were all based out of his preschool. I have to call some people tomorrow to get this figured out, I hate being the bad guy sometimes but I wish they would all see that I just want to keep Nathan safe!

Laura~ You're not the "bad guy" for keeping your kid safe. They are for letting it continue without trying to handle it first thing. Do you know what would happen with my job if I did that??? Yeah....what job??? Stacy~ Boo on the ped. leaving. Ansley's ped. was killed in a car accident right after Ansley turned 2 and it was so heartbreaking for us!! We'd been through so much and we knew that he knew Ansley and all of her quirks. It took a long time to trust the new dr. fully and it's still the former guy's name in my phone for the office! Lindsay~ Dare I ask how religious beliefs fit into a services meeting??? Interesting...... Jess~ I hope you get relief from the heartburn. I had it one time bad enough to think I was having a heart attack.....HORRIBLE!! After that there was a note to self to stay away from cajun food until after the arrival of the twins!  Ansley was fine by lunch yesterday!!  Whatever it was was short lived and she was in full swing this morning for school. The principals of the new schools were named tonight and I have a feeling that we'll find out something soon regarding where we'll be heading for next school year. I'll be fine, but hopefully I'll be somewhere that Ansley will be comfortable with as well.

Tracy - Hi:) We were talking about something and then it went to "well, I don't know how spiritual you are, but . . . " It was just upsetting. It was unprofessional and the focus was taken off of our kiddo. The guy is actually leaving and moving to another department/cubicle, so thankfully we'll be assigned a new coordinator very soon.

Hey all! Happy (very belated) Mother's Day! Hope it was beautiful for all of you.
There's no way I'm going to remember 73 posts. Massive brain fry. And it's just been kind of a bummer of a week. Where's that cabana boy? Does he still give massages?
Sixteen more school days here. Can't come soon enough. We all need something to give around here. Oy.
Happy thoughts and hugs!!

Hi girls... been eons since I stopped in. I'm so busy trying to keep up with work, the girls, the house and artwork that my head is spinning most days. wish I could clone myself.
let's see what I remember.
jess, congrats! Sorry about the heartburn. I had it too. I made sure to move around a lot after eating, which helped somewhat. Doesn't take much for heartburn during pregnancy.
Lauren: Micah is too cute. he sounds like a little mobster.
Stacy: what are you doing in little rock? How is elim. When does Charles leave?
Donna: remember when you told me that age 3 was worse than age 2? Oi vey. I'm ready to tear my hair out with kaelin somedays
sorry to hear about the girl bothering Grace. has that resolved at all?
Lorena: how is work?
Forgive me.. I'm on my phone. hate autocorrect!
Erin
Modems: how is work? Long hours?

Jess~ I hope the heartburn eases up...... Donna~ Hope those days fly by! Ours are.....only 2 more!!! News today---I'll be teaching 2nd grade next year. I'm okay with that. It's been a while since I had 2nd grade, but I guess I can readjust. Really, they're all the same....some are just taller.

Tracy - I love second grade. They're old enough to carry on a conversation and start to critically think, but young enough they still like school and respect their teachers. Have fun!!
Jess - Oy on the heartburn. Hope you find relief.
Erin - artwork, yardwork....lol. Girls are adorable!!! And 3 is absolutely atrocious. I started counting down the days until he turned 4 the day after Ethan turned 3. Good luck!! And as for the girl drama at school, yes it has eased up a bit. Thanks for asking!
Ahhhhh....need massive amounts of coffee today. Went to bed late, and then Ethan was in my bed grinding his teeth all night. Made me grind my teeth so then I had to get up to find my mouth guard. Bible study this morning, and then a quiet afternoon until Grace's band concert tonight. Wonder if I can get away with wearing ear plugs?

Erin- I'm with you 3. was not my favorite. I think 2 was much better.
Tracy- Yay! I am so glad you got your assignment. Boy, they really kept you guys guessing until the end.
Jessica- Good luck with the renters.
We have two more weeks of school left. Abigail is sad. She doesn't want first grade to end but we have a big summer planned with my work which is why I have been MIA and will be more so in June/July. My students are done. Graduation was interesting but fun and now the undergrads return to the lab on Monday so another big upheaval.
Does anyone have a big weekend planned? My parents are here so they are running errands and going to babysit. Yay. So ready for a night out. Have a great day.

I know it's going to be a huge pain to pack up (again) Donna- Yuppers, counting down the days! Exciting, but sad that another school year is here and gone. Erin - I was laughing at the artwork. I was thinking, wow, she's an artist too?! That's awesome! Although, I think we're all sort of creative artist people in our own ways. For us, it was the terrible three's:) Jess - Hoping those people will jump on the apartment:) Keeping fingers crossed:) Ellen - I know. My first grader is thinking that he is going to have the same teacher next year for 2nd. I'm reminding him that he's going to have a different teacher and he's a bit sad. We rolled our eyes at a few things his teacher did (way too much candy), but in the end, our son learned A LOT from him. Have fun on your night out:) Mr. T has speech today. Taking my car in tomorrow. Got to be the starter or the fan belt (or both). Come on car, hang in there! I opted for that 2-year renewal on tags, so hoping it will endure another year.

Weekend plans....hmmmm.... annual art festival at school tomorrow. Grace and a few of her ballet classmates are dancing (one of her dance teacher's kids go to our school).

Liz~ Woohoo for Tori's big girl self!!! Lindsay~ Ansley just happened to get the same teacher for 2nd and 3rd, but it was all thanks to the fruit basket turnover that we all did last year. It was wonderful for the transition to the new school though. Donna~ Sounds like another busy busy weekend for you! I have an idea, why don't you and I go out and leave Michael with the boys!??!! Ellen~ I'm curious of what all the fun will be about this summer!! One more day...... Hopefully most of my kids will go home with parents after their awards ceremony in the morning! Can I get some fingers crossed?????? I've taught 2nd grade before for whoever mentioned that and there are "benefits" to teaching that age group too. My take on the whole teaching thing is that they're all the same, some are just taller than others.....  Gotta get my rest....lots of packing to do!

Tracy, if I lived closer I would totally help you pack. I actually like to pack, it's part of my organization OCD - lol.
I've been cancelled three times at work this week, so frustrating. I like the extra time with my kids but I need the money from working. Oh well, complaining about it isn't going to change that I was cancelled. On the bright side, it gives me time to get the house cleaned.
