Whose your momma!?!?!?
I am mommy to two extra kids as of Tuesday afternoon... My sweet friend Gena and her hubby went to a wedding in Utah and I offered to help with her kids and dog....it's been great except for the damn dog. Brogan is just too much...and I am not so much a dog person...anyway, I guess it's been a rough day, so if I offend anyone please forgive me.
I was up at 5:30am with Christie...she was a bit fussy, nothing that nursing didn't take care of...at least I thought...we got back to sleep eventually I put her on my chest to sleep and was awakened by tons of vomit sliding down my neck! Yippee...poor thing wasn't feeling well and thankfully no more vomit today just loads of diarreah and fussiness!
We also got a letter from the Neurologist that she wrote to our pediatrician about the visit she had with Christie and she mentioned in there re: her physical examination the "dysmorphic facial features noted: Microcephaly, low set ears, epicanthal folds, mid face hypoplasia, and evident disconjugate gaze"....now of couse I have no clue what those mean or are so I googled them and was brought to tears. I don't think the doctor could be so sure...since what I saw on the pics are nothing what I see in Christie...but is this what I am to see when she grows up!?!?!? I don't care it's just that I do...make any sense? I just can't stop crying...not cuz I am ashamed cuz I feel embarrassed that I am crying, but anyway...my mom gave me some good advice and put it into perspective for me and made me not feel so ashamed for crying. Anyway, we still need an evaluation by Neurogenetics and the blood tests yada yada will give us an accurate say!
Well, it's been a LONG day...we have been busy, getting rid of toys, yard work(mike's doing)...he's funny...we just got the lawn mower back for being serviced and he came in and said "nothing like a bond between a man and his lawn mower"....cheesy....he was so happy to be able to just get on and go for a ride!
Weather has been outrageously beautiful the last few days...truly perfect...wish we could have been at Kings Dominion...and if I had no kids it'd been perfect to camp outside with just Mike and myself. Ok...I wouldn't mind the kids...but not 6 of them...
Well, I'm off to bed...I am pooped! I don't know why my postings show an 3 hr difference...don't know how to change it....cuz I am posting this at 10:19 and am positive it'll say 7:20 or whatever it is by the time I truly publish it...who cares...but for Stephanie's sake...know I am not up that early at least not to write on my blog! love love!
