Proud Mommy Moment :)

Everyday my kids amaze me. I am so proud of Mikey and Lexi and how good they are doing in school this year. I always worry when we move because every school has different standards and expectations. Well Friday they both brought home their report cards. Mikey got As and B+ which a B+ here is a 90-94 so technically if he was at any other school that would be considered an A. So he did fantastic as always. Along with his great grades he is also in band, plays soccer and works in the library one morning a week. He's a busy boy :) And Lexi got all O's and G's. Which is outstanding and good in everything. She is reading at the level she needs to read in to be in 2nd grade. And is doing great in everything. I am so proud of her. I'm so lucky to have 2 kids that love school and are so smart...ahhh it's a proud mommy moment :)

oh and Mikey told me I couldn't hang his report card on the fridge, because he doesn't want anyone to know he's a nerd. LMAO!!

Samantha Grace is ONE!

Samantha Grace is ONE!!

I still can't believe Samantha turned one on Friday. It seems like just yesterday she was born. And now she is running around and officially a toddler. Time goes by too fast.

I don't know...

so disappointed...

I'm just so disappointed right now. I feel completely let down by my mother. She promised me over a month ago that she was going to come visit for the long weekend. And she got a plane ticket and everything, so i figured it was safe to tell the kids she was coming. Well she calls me yesterday and says that she's not coming today because she has a dr. appt, but will try to change her ticket to Friday. Well I call her last night and she tells me that she is not coming, she'll try to come next month. wtf?!?! the kids had their hearts set on seeing her. I know i should have never told them she was coming. ugh...i'm just really sad right now. I really wanted to see my mom.

Lock Down...

Today about 3:25 my neighbor comes knocking on my door telling me to hurry up and get to the school, the school had been put on lock down. They founds some sort of substance and didn't know what it was but 12 kids and 2 adults had rashes and burning eyes and coughing from it. And they weren't sure if anyone else was going to be affected by it. So we stood across the street from the school from 325 til 715 when they finally let the kids start to leave. They still have not said what it is that they found in the school and the kids that were effected by it are ok, but it was so scary. The kids were locked in their classrooms and honestly had no clue what was going on. They said they were afraid there might be some bad guy in their school and that breaks my heart that they have to worry about things like this. When I got up to the school there were about 20 fire trucks 14 ambulances and numerous police, the SWAT team and of course the hazmat team. Now we're home and completely exhausted. I so need some sleep...

In search of a new dr...

I've been completely fed up w/ out Dewitt Army Hospital works and am determined today I am going to try to get the ok from tricare to just go out in town. This all started yesterday when I called the Peds clinic to try to get the dr to put in the referrals for Mikey to go to DC childrens hospital for his yearly cleft clinic. Getting referrals for this should not be a hard thing to do, due to the fact that he needs to go due to a birth defect, he has gone every single year and in CO they had absolutely no problem just letting me call in the referrals because his primary care DR does not need to see him. Well they have decided they want to make me bring him in so that we can ask the DR in person for the referrals. So you're telling me my kid needs to miss school just to walk into the drs office and me say we need referrals and them put in in the computer WTF...

Then...today I finally had a dr appt to find out what is wrong with me because I have not slept an entire night since before Sammi was born. Even when she sleeps through the night I'm up til at least 2 then up every hour after that. I'm just exhausted. Well first the Dr acts like i'm there just to get sleeping pills or something. Then just because it is not in my records here she questions the fact that I told her i had a baby in November because she does not see it in my records (Yea i'm making it up...whatever...) THEN...she has the nerve to say to me "well i see records from 2003 in here" and I explain to her that they are from when I was with my exhusband and she says....."WOw...where do you hang out that you get all these military guys to marry you" OMG...this just pissed me off. She was NOT joking either. SO....now i'm on a mission to find a new primary care doctor and not at Dewitt either because I refuse to go back there.

My Ring :(

Yesterday was such a rainy blah day....So I decided to take a nap. When I woke up my ring finger was huge. It was so swollen and I could not get my engagement ring off of my finger. So over the corse of the night I tried anything and everything I possibly could to get my ring off. With no such luck. This morning I woke up and my finger was turning purple...obviously that was not a good sign. So after much convincing from Steve that I needed to go to the ER, I went. And of course they cut my ring off. I'm so sad about that. I know it can be fixed or replaced but that is not the point. Well it turns out I must have gotten bit by a spider...at least they say it looks like a spider bite. Which is what swelled my finger up.

I guess Steve was smart putting off wedding ring shopping for the past 8 months. LOL. Cause now I'm in need of a new engagement ring and wedding ring. which i'm sure he's not going to be thrilled about.

I'm so upset about my ring, but I guess my finger is a bit more important then the ring. At least that's what they told me at the ER.
