Having A Bad Day! *Warning Pity Party*

*PITY PARTY WARNING*
Ok 1st off sorry but it's my blog and I wanna have a poor me pity party.

Yes I just got back from 2 days at the beach. but it was more like torture than a vacation. Dont get me wrong I'm glad we went and we had fun, but you put my mom and sister together too long and its bad you put me and my sister together to long and it's bad and then you throw in a head strong I'm gonna do what I want when I want 4 year old and a clingy, yet independent almost 2 year old and it makes for one big bang. First off I knew trying to fit all everyone usually does in just 2 days wasn't gonna work. my mom wants to lay out in the sun as does my sister my almost 2 year old wants to eat sand and play with my mom and my 4 year old wants to jump waves. I don't really like being on the beach. The sand gets everywhere the water you can't see your feet and the people watchin you makes me very un comfortable to start with if you take in my anxiety and depression issues you see where I'm going. So yesterday pretty much sucked and I was totally glad when Eian started to get pink so we could leave. Then you ride home in the rain slow traffic in the back seat with 2 car seats and kids. I came home thinking the kids would go play with toys and let me have a few mins to work on the Internet stuff i got going on but no. they wanted to be right on me and whining about something. didn't sleep worth crap. kids wake up in the same whinny wanna be with you mood. I love them and I'd do anything for them but as a SAHM I need a little space sometimes. I know i need my meds adjusted or even changed i missed my appt yesterday cuz we went to the beach. over the last few months I've noticed how shaky my hands are when i try to write or cut paper or anything. I haven't said anything about it but I mentioned it to my mom (a nurse) on the 4th and she wants me to talk to my dr cuz it could be a side afficed of my meds. great Prozac seems to be the only one that works and even then it needs to be upped so often.

to top it off money issues have me stressed beyond belief right now. Eian's ssi check did not come this month so i called and they don't know why i didnt get it cuz it was issued but they are re issuing me another (lady was so nice I think it's the 1st time in a long time I got a nice person over the phone) But it'll take up to 10 business days to get here. I know direct deposit it what i should be doing and i have filled out the thing online but they sent me a letter stating something was incorrect to fill out the paper and send it in but i can't til i get a check so i can put down the check number. child support is late and yes joe's paying it it comes right outta his check.

I'm trying so hard to help other families in need but I'm falling on my face getting help with donated items and such. all my giveaways and fundraiser giveaways are solely funded by me. and money is short . I did have a few people offer thank God or I wouldn't be able to do anymore. which makes me so sad to even think about it.

Then to top it off my mom gave me the money to order her a phone off ebay i did my research and the company looked good only negatives they had looked like people who bought mint phones and expedite new ones. so I ordered on the 24th they took the money out of my paypal on th 25 and I got my delivery confirmation number for a week if stated The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on June 25, 2009 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later. so I emailed them and asked if it had been shipped on the 2nd they emailed back it missed last shipping and would go out tomorrow on the 3rd on today is the 9th and the dc# is still saying the same thing so i emailed them yesterday as soon as i got home from the beach and no response so I filed a complaint with paypal. so it's a wait and see. stressing me even more my mom text everyday did my phone come and I know she needs it her's is about to kick the bucket. ok I'm done for now I gotta go wash eian's new outfits so i can pick him out something to wear to the eye dr at 2:45pm today
*EDITED MY POOR SPELLING SORRY*

4 Year Check Up

Today Alex had his 4 year check up only 2 months late. lol. I'm happy to say he has a clean bill of health. He's 39lbs 6oz and 42inch tall. Dr said he's above average which he always has been. He had to have his iron check, he did not like that, but it was good. I addressed the speach issues. She's gonna refer him for Speech Therapy, like I wanted. He did very good did everything they asked of him and was well behavied. I took his DS with him so he played that for a while. He had to get 3 shots. As soon as the nurse walked in with them he freaked. Kicked, cried, I had to hold him down. He screamed very loud. He got 3 stickers & 2 lollipops. I took the boys to McDonalds for kids meals. We are home now & he's fine playing his game on my bed.

Howdy Ya'll

Yes we are for the south lol. I got just a few mins to update Joel has something he needs me todo.

E went for his one week check up from his hospital stay and got the all clear. WOOHOO! She said he sounded great and didnt even look like the same baby. and he's back up 1lb 4oz from when they admitted him. He's 23lbs 4oz. Still a little peanut compared to A who was well over 25lbs at 12 months. and E is 18 months old today. I'll update more later E's into something.

April 1st- Long Over Due Update

Ok where to start. Well the wireless internet at my moms is DOA. :( So I'm having to use my dad's computer when I can. But I'm about to order internet for joel's house.

Speaking of yes we have moved back in, in order to help both of us with money problems. We are not together right now. I do have hopes that soon we will be but thats a whole different story. But the boys will have their own rooms. Moving sucks.

Our dog is pregnant, she's a brindle pit/bower mix. Jada is a beautiful dog. We have no idea with stay is the father, I hope they look like her.

I am officially a crunchy mom. lol. Ok so E wears cloth diapers at home and I use all natural laundry detergent and Have cloth wipes.

I really love the cloth diapers but I think I may need a different type of inserts in my pocket diapers. as he leaks out the leg elastic. I have a few more diapers ordered. :)

I've been doing good still down in the dumps but thats cause I'm still off my meds. Just don't have the time to get into the dr but I need to.

Eian did end up in the hospital again last week. Monday afternoon to Wednesday night. Same thing as before the respiratory distress from the cold. He was also really dehydrated this time. But he's back to Eian again just on 3 new meds, so thats a total of 5 now.

Alex will be 4 on the 19th. today is actually my original due date with him. It was the right one too, but the dumb Dr changed it. to the 21st. If he had not stopped my labor 3 times when I was already past 37 weeks by the real date I proli would have been able to have him natural and not by c-section. I know when and were Alex was conceived since Joel and I did not live together. I'll save ya from those details lol.

On a more serious note Please Continue Praying For Stellan.

Update

Eian's been sick the last few days and Monday we took him to the dr and she decided as soon as she come in he was going back in the hospital. So that he did. He just got out today. I'll post more tomorrow along with some pictures.

Continue to pray for Stellan please.

Update

So yesterday Joel (aka my babies daddy lol) had to have a colonoscopy done. He had been having some pain and they thought it might been from his hermia repair from when I was pregnant with E but it wasn't so his dr moved on to find other reasons. Anyways Joel's dr said it looked good and sent him home. Me and the boys had stayed over at his house thursday night so I could be with him friday. After his thing i took him home and he ate and then we went to Spartanburg to get his new video game then pretty much just spent the day hanging out together. E and I stayed over again last night and Joel took care of E so I could get some sleep. E was a total daddy's boy yesterday. He even fell asleep on his daddy while Joel was waiting to be took back.

Now I wont lie to my bloggy friends, I love Joel with all my heart and I have for 9 years now. We have 2 beautiful boys together. I'd love to work things out and put our family back together. Joel knows where I stand but who knows where he stands. Thats all I'm gonna say about that.

Asthma Acting Up Again

We all came down with the snots this weekend. Like always it hit E the hardest. So he ended up at the Dr this morning. Luckly it's just in his throat and hadn't moved to his lungs again. The Dr put him on oral steroids and switched him over to a different asthma med on the nebulizer and took him off his inhalers til this clears up. He's feeling like poopy right now. So does mommy. I'll live. Hopefully we caught E's in time to keep him outta the hospital.

Busy Day!!

Today Eian had OT from 9-10 am and the he had EI from 11-12. We worked on him feeding himself puffs at OT today, he did pretty good he got mad a few times. I spoke with his OT Mrs. C. about him not doing too good with thin liquids and him watching you talk and moving his mouth like he's trying to learn to do it, and she thinks it's time to start speech therapy. So she said she would call his dr to get the referral for ST. He has his PT evaluation this month too. Then his EI Mrs. S. was really shocked at all the new stuff he's doing she's been on vaca for 2 weeks. Next week we are updating our IFSP plan even though our 6 months aren't up he has met all the goal we set for him so we have to set new ones. WOO HOO!!!!!

Then we finally got home and I have alot of boxes of stuff to take to the garage for the Team Eian Yard Sale. We still have no set date or place yet. hopefully by Wednesday we will.

We have also noticed that Eian doesn't sweat so I need to make an appointment for him to see his dr.

So Totally Forgot

To update about Eian's MRI. I blame the mommy brains. Ok anyways his MRI Monday went good. My mom (a nurse) went with us, and we told them upfront they had 2 chances to stick him and get an IV. Well 2 sticks and nothing, so they did it without the IV. The nurse was able to put the meds in his bottle with a little water and he took it great and he was out. The scan went good he sleep the whole time. He was still pretty much outta it when we left. He sleep a little while at my moms while I went to the dr. When I came back he was up buit a every grumpy boy. Poor little guy had a hangover. He was hungry but too sleepy to eat, he was sleepy but too hungry to sleep. Finally I mixed his formula with a jar of baby food to thicken it and he took down the whole thing and went to sleep. Later that day about 3:30-4pm his eye dr (the one who ordered the MRI) called and said everything looked normal and she'd see us at our check up in July. He sleep good that night I was suprised I expected him not to, but he did. and the next day he was smiley Eian again.
