We are alive and kicking

Well for those that have not heard or seen from me I am alive and doing much much better.

I ended up going to doctor a month ago and got put in hospital due to a massive infection in my insides they put me on antibiotics from iv for couple of hours and did some test and saw that I was full of infection so dr wanted to do lapscopy surgery and when he went in it was pretty bad. Things the next couple of days did not get better and he then decided that we needed to do a total hysterectomy on me and that was done two days after my first surgery. I was in the hospital a total of 5 days. And on top of all of that they took out my appendix too.

Kinda bad timing we had to put off Granpa Blankinship's bday and Andrew's but we made them up and then was sick for Paul's bday. We had a combined party for Paul and Andrew a couple weeks after I got home from hospital. Andrew is sat for tee ball with what he got for his bday.

I am off the teeball circuit right now I am still on the roster but can't play until I am better which will be the fall season. Paul's team has been doing great this time they have lost only one game and Paul has hit some in field home runs....If you get a chance try to come out and watch it is a lot of fun.

Madison is growing like a weed she is 13 pounds now and had her first URI and ear infection last week. This is the same time that Andrew started all his ear infections as well. So guess we are going to have that with her as well. She goes back next month for her 4 month chkup and her shots.

Andrew is starting big boy school next week. He will be going to Skyline since Richmond is too full. We go to meet the teacher and see his classroom on Monday night. He is really excited not sure how I am feeling about this yet. He has been so great since I was sick and out of commision for awhile he has been helping me get up and walk and with his sister. Andrew got his school shots and that was exciting and his allergy shots his Granma Blankinship is now giving him at home the drs office wanted too much money for them to give him a shot.

Paul is staying busy. He was up there every night at the hospital with me and finally think we have both caught up on our loss of sleep from up there. He has been great through all this as well. We lost three goats while I was sick on top of that. He and his dad got the babies pulled off the nannies Wed night and so now we hope that no one will turn us into the sheriffs dept for them being on the road. Paul got a new truck for his bday this year. And WE all love it is a 4 door and we all can fit in it. Mommy does not get to drive it yet. And Andrew wants to take it all the time when we go places. Also for his bday we took Madison to get her pictures taken at walmart and her little ears pierced (the pictures will be in next Thursday before you go hunting me down to see when you will get your copy :). Now everyone says she looks like a little Paul with earrings.

I am thinking about starting back to work on Monday and will see how I am feeling to see if I make it a whole day or even the whole week. The doctor said to see how I am feeling and see if coming off my antibotics will ease the stomach trouble I am having. Need to build my strength back up and am ready to get back to walking and working out, I know slowly do that..

So this is it for now...now since I am feeling like getting on a computer I will try to keep this thing up dated for you all...If I forgot something just chk out dad's page...

PS Beat ya Randi... :)
