Yeah...I fell off the face of the earth for a while. What can I say? It's Summer, I have 3 kids and craziness all going on and my friends all have craziness going on, so when I have a free minute, I try to think of someone other than myself for a while. I'll just update and then hope that as we work into Fall, I'll be better.
1. I figured out why Olivia wasn't eating well when I laid her down one day and realized she had 4 hard little white lines on her top gums. Poor baby is cutting her 4 top teeth all at once!
2. My platelet count had been doing okay (staying above 30k and even going up to 42k on it's own) but it dropped out to 19k last Thursday. I had to take a round of Dex and had my couple days of side-effects and am now starting to feel better again. My count was 84k yesterday.
3. Will is registered for Kindergarten! That was so exciting and scary at the same time. On the one hand, I look forward to this stage of my kids life, but on the other, I don't want to lose my baby...and I don't want my baby to lose his innocence. Does anyone else out there struggle with the balance of preparing your kids for 'real life' and wanting to protect them from everything that could ever affect them? I can't think about it too long or I make myself crazy.
Doesn't it all seem so simple when you're just in the "let's have a baby" stage? I know we considered the seriousness of being parents, but honestly, you never really know what you're getting into.
4. Joel started a new job! He's repping tile/hard surface for Emser Tile. I think this will be a good change for him, and he's for sure excited about the job.
Okay...that's it for now. I have stuff to do.
