surgeries oh my

As most of you may know, I just had my gallbladder taken out and I am SORE!!!!! It isn't a kind of pain where I am constantly on pain medicine it is more of a discomfort. It feels as if I was kicked in the ribs, I hope it goes away soon!!!

As for everyone else in the family, Regan is officially a 2nd grader now!! Where did the time go? Am I old enough to be a mom to a 2nd grader?? Bridgette will be in pre school in september and it will be harrison and I for a half-day 2 days a week.

So far this summer we haven't done anything to fun, we had to cancel a camping trip due to my surgery but am hoping to make it up somewhere. Both regan and bridgette are playing soccer starting in august and they can't wait. They want to play now. Ha ha

Well we have a few weeks before harrison has his surgery for his ears. We cant wait we are doing a countdown and doing everything in our power to prevent him from getting another ear infection. Poor little guy! His recovery is going to be much quicker than mine fortunatly. He will be back to normal within 12 hrs.

I guess that about covers it for now. Hope everyone is having a great summer so far!!!

Bridgette Jean!!!

Bridgette just turned 3 yesterday. Where does the time go???? Took her to the doctors today and she is 34 lbs and 37 inches tall. She is going to be tall!! The dr is concerned about her belly pain that she seems to have. I need to change her diet a little and then if that doesnt work then she will be tested to see what is going on and to rule out celiac disease. I am praying that the diet change will work, I do not want her to have to go through all of the testing that is involved with celiac disease.

Harrison is growing like a weed!!! He is climbing into everything!! Regan also is doing well, still loves school and hates when he has to miss it!

Sleep is....

OVERRATED!!!!! Boy do my kids know how to test me!! For about 2 weeks now, 1 or all 3 have been getting up numerous times!!! Last night was the WORST!!! Both boys were up at 3:30 a.m. wide awake and wanting to play! I finally caved and put them both in the living room and I fell asleep on the couch. Harrison crashed again around 5 but then was up again at 6. Regan never fell back to sleep and I am thinking that he was pretty miserable for his teachers today. It is an early bedtime night, especially since Bridgette only had a 10 min nap and was up late last night.

On another note, I cannot believe that Harrison will be 9 mos on the 24th and that Bridgette will be 3 in March!! My little ones are growing up so quick!!!

If you have any suggestions on the sleep thing, please let me know!! I am DESPERATE to try anything!!!

Wow!!

Wow time has really flown by!!! As you all may know, we have a new addition to our family. Harrison Joseph was born on May 24th. Regan and Bridgette just adore him! He loves Regan and tolerates Bridgette. He is 8 mos old already!! I can't believe it!!

Bridgette is almost 3 and boy does she know how to test our patience! I am hoping to put her in nursery school this fall. Sean doesn't want to but I think she is ready and very willing to go! It would only be 2 days a week for 2 hrs I believe. Other than that she is growing like crazy!!!

Regan is doing GREAT in school!!! He LOVES going everyday. We just got his report card and he has 90's or 100's in mostly everything! I hope he continues to enjoy school. He is also in boyscouts now and is enjoying that also. He is hoping to go to boy scout camp this summer.

Sean and I are doing well also. We are still house hunting and am not finding anything that we can either agree on or in the area that we want. It is very frustrating because right now all 3 kids are in 1 tiny room. I hope we have some luck soon!
