New Header

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

I think we need a new header and I think that this pic would be great. What do you think?

The End of an Era

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

We went to Young’s Farm this Saturday to attend the heretofore annual Pumpkin Festival. This is the last year that the farm will be open because they’re moving to Oregon to become cattle ranchers. We’ve been to this event every year that we’ve had kids and we will miss the annual trek. It was fun, [...]

Mimi fell off the couch

Monday, October 9th, 2006

Today Mimi was having a fit and rolled off the couch. Kimberly and Annie freaked out and watched me scoop her up to comfort her. Kimberly then asked if we needed to take Mimi to a hospital. Hmmm I guess they too will never be the same.

Wake up call

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

“Good Morning Mini Cooper.” ~ said by Kimberly This phase then repeated by Annie. I guess they love that car as much as their Daddy does.

Halloween bags

Friday, October 6th, 2006

My friend made the girls these super cute Halloween bags.

Moms are strong

Thursday, October 5th, 2006

I was feeling pretty icky lately but just kept pressing on. Mimi needed me more than ever and I had to do what I needed to for her. Somewhere along the way I contracted a fairly serious case of Strep Throat. Honestly I debated even going in to the Dr. today. When I went in [...]

Must sign this petition

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Millions of people see google pages each day. Please sign this petition so that they will make a doodle for Prematurity Awareness Day, November 14th. Because of March of Dimes research I was able to carry Annie and Madeline to term.

Our artist

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Annie was drawing several months back and drew a picture of a mouse and a dog on her magna doodle. She did such a great job that we had to photograph it. We had not uploaded pics in quite some time and meant to post this back when she did it.

Going to gymnastics

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Today the girls started back up in Gymnastics. We had taken a month off for me to recuperate from my hysterectomy. The girls were so excited this morning when I told them. I was hesitant about leaving Mimi with my parents for that short time but felt that I needed to. Mimi did great and [...]

Update on Madeline

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

She is doing well. She has finally gotten so much better on the medicine. I am so happy for that. She is still often dazed much more than she ever was before. I am so happy to have the “old” Mimi coming back more and more each day.

Mom

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Kimberly has decided to call me Mom. She has been doing it for the past couple of days. Annie has used this term from time to time but it never stuck with her. Kinda weird to hear her call me Mom rather than Mommy.

Storytime

Tuesday, October 3rd, 2006

Today I took the girls to storytime. I thought that we all needed to get out of the house and worst case the storytime lady would entertain Annie and Kimmie while I held Mimi. Everyone did very well today. I was so proud of my girls. Annie was up doing the activities, Kimmie was loving [...]

More pieces to fit into the puzzle

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

Today we had an appointment with Mimi’s regular doctor to discuss all that has happened in the past 5 whirlwind days. He is so easy to understand and will speak to us for as long as we need. Here is what he had to say. About an 80% chance that our precious Mimi has a [...]

Our drunken sailor

Sunday, October 1st, 2006

Today Mimi is doing much better on her phenobarbitol. By this afternoon she was able to walk around with someone just following her in very close proximity. She continues to be stable. We will be taking her in to see the very trusted Dr. Coulombe tomorrow so that he can help us sort through things. [...]
