We are staffed at my house...

Yesterday I gave the triplets their bath and when I was drying Caitlin off I noticed 2 large blisters on her leg. I called the dr., long story short - she has a staph/strep skin infection. Shew is on oral and cream antibiotics that we are praying work for her. We want no more hospital trips!!!! She could have gotten this at a playland, park, school...
UGH!
I am at my mom's sand have no time to type or read. :(
Love you all!

Woo Hoo an actual post!!!!

I had to stop at my mom's so I am taking advantage of her computer. I just wish I could post pictures. Beggars can't be choosers I guess. :)
Last night after I finished my post an alert popped up that said I had used up all my time, so I don't know how frequent these posts will be until my new hours are added. Oh well, I am blessed to at least get those 10 hours!
The trio didn't go to bed until 10:30 last night, had been up since 7 that morning and taken no naps. They were such a wild bunch. Sonya (who called last night and made my night!) can attest to their wildness as I know she heard them. The firemen came to their school yesterday - so around 10:15 I walked into their room and found them sitting with a box of too small clothing putting on as much as they can because apparantly that is what firemen do. They pretended to be firemen all day! Are you aware that if you catch on fire you should "Stop, Rock and Roll" or if your house catches on fire you should run outside and hide behind a tree? I am not sure they got all they could from the talk.
Gabe gets to acolyte at church this Sunday for the first time. I am trying to decide how goofy I'd look if I took a camera to take his picture. I embarass him with everything I do, so I figure this can't make it too much worse. I am so excited for him. I loved being an acolyte. If you are not familiar with the term...basically he carries a long brass candle lighter thingy down in front of the church and lights the altar candles. There are always two and he is paired up with his good friend Sam. Hopefully he won't burn down the church, but there are plenty of trees to huide behind if he doesm and we all know to stop rock and roll!
Saturday is also Gabe's last soccer game. He has improved so much and has asked to be able to try out for the traveling team next spring. I said we'd see and that he needed to keep practicing all winter. We will probably sign him up for indoor soccer in March.
I need to run, I hope you all have fabulous days!!!!

Lura is Great!

OK, Amanda asked me to post and let you know that she has used up her 10 free hours of Juno for the month. She will be back in a week or so when she has more Internet time!

Afternoon at the hospital

I have a child actually laying still! This is a huge deal for me. He has been up and running around as far as his oxygen tube will let him - sometimes farther too! Yesterday he spent a lot of time hiding in the little closet, today he has been making a fort out of the curtains and hiding from people. So far his oxygen level is stable. I am awaiting semi patiently the next reading.
We had a bout of vomitting earlier which meant Johnny got to take a shower. He sprayed down the whole bathroom with the hose. He is keeping the staff entertained. Not so much his mother!
I have been trying really hard to keep my sense of humor about things...most of the time I am succeeding and others, well..... I am worried about my little boy, worried about finances, where we are going to live, winter's coming and that brings a whole nother group of worries. I know we will be fine. I just think that being here is giving me too much time to think about our situation. I am trying not to pity myself (that does no good, although I usually end up laughing rather than pitying) I am trying to be realistic about things and that can get depressing!

My mom is coming to stay with Johnny tonight while I take Gabe to soccer and spend a little one on one with him. I have already had time with Luke and Caitlin today so I am getting a little time with all my kiddos. I will look for the cable to download pics when I run home. I have some nice ones of me and Johnny that we took ourselves. Oh boy.

Have a peachy day!

An actual post...

I don't understand why I can post here and not home. I have decided it must have something to do with having dial up at home. I tried Kevin's suggestion but couldn't make it work. Go figure. Thanks you anyways!
Johnny and I are at the hospital still. He is not able to keep his oxygen level up. They won't accept anything lower than 93% and he has been sitting in the mid 80's. They cleared him of pnemonia, but can't give us a solid explanation as to what is causing this. The dr. has labled him a jr. wheezer. But it is too early to diagnos him with asthma. He is now acting perfectly fine, which puzzles them, apparantly kids with a low pulse/ox should be lethargic.
Good News....Crys you will be especially happy/proud of me. I have a working digital camera. Johnny and I have snapped some goofy shots. He keeps hiding in the closet! What a goofball. I just have to find the cable now to download them to the computer.
Gosh, I can finally post and now can think of nothing to say....isn't that how it goes.
Oh, Gabe brought home his interim report and it was all A's and B's! We are so proud of him. He worked hard to get them. The teacher gave him good comments too! Go Gabe! He also did fabulous at soccer on Saturday. I took some pictures that I might be able to post someday. You all know that the downside to a working digital camera is no more of my drawings... I know, you are all devestated.
That's all for now. Look for more posts later.
Love ya guys!

A real post...Thanks to Lura's computer.

I may have difficulty posting this as someone's husband is standing behind me helping me to write this by contributing his thoughts in belch form. I know, gross.

I came over to Lura's house to bring some comfort food and we stayed to help eat it. I think I know why she bought all that Mylanta now. I don't thing one thing that I made turned out the way it was supposed to. While I was sauteeing onions and had my back turned, Caitlin dumped half a bottle of pepper into the chicken salad. Luckily I could kind of scoop it out. We will let you know if anyone gets food poisoning.

Luke is standing screaming at me so this will be really short. I spent a large portion of my day filling out and hunting up papers for the lawyer. What fun. I think we will be able to take them up on Monday and start the process. I talked to an assistant on the phone who was really helpful, but it doesn't make it easier. I want this all to be over with and again I don't. I don't like not knowing where we are going to live.... I don't like uncertainty. But God will have the perfect place for us.

Okay, since Tim is pacing behind me I am going to close and go type nasty things on his blog.
I will talk to you all later. Lots of love.....

This is a test!

I don't know why Amanda's computer won't let her post. It is working on mine. See?!

Since she can't post, I will put that she had a great day and it got even better when Lura and the boys stopped over around 2. Then she got the privilege of watching the boys while Lura ran to the store.

I'm sure if she ever gets her computer working right, she will tell you "the rest of the story". Ha ha.

This is pathetic!

Aarrgghhh! Still nothing! I don't know why I can't post anything. This is worse than when I couldn't do titles!!!
