I Will Not Blog Under the Influence...

Well, almost...

Just a quick update of our past week:

After a fun-filled weekend, involving a bday party, wedding and funeral, super-mom is injured and under the influence of vicoden and 800 mg Ibuprophen, along with 1 anti-nausea medication as I do NOT stomach heavy drugs too well. In summary:

* Bday party for the baby I watch who has grown to be a 3 (!) year old. Lots of fun with a fabulous balloon artist whose creations are just now expiring. I can't believe all the 'babies' are growing so fast! In any case, I believe it was at this party, with a baby on each knee that I injured (okay, broke) my right foot, AGAIN. I distinctly remember feeling a pop and having a pain visual of a firework exploding on my heel. I have an MRI on the foot tomorrow, but the xrays show a bone spur at the heel.

* Wedding: Cut short as Claire bear had way too much lactose and gluten and was projectile vomitting all over the sister sitters. (side note: Claire sees a gastroneurologist asap)

* Funeral: More running for Dad, who is the sole driver of our home and is now responsible for running the kiddos and grocery shopping, along with running invalid mom to various doctor appointments.

So, that's our week in a nutshell. Mom can be kind of a nutty teacher, trying to revisit subjects already covered during that day, but the kids are all taking it in stride. Keep us in your prayers.

Take Care...Love Much,
