I Finally Get To Breath,News On The EEG.

Woke up at 8am with Chase still asleep.What a shock.I finally ened up having to wake him up at
9am to eat. Today made it 2 weeks since his EEG.Called around and finally track the results down,then had to wait till chase's doctor to get them.I finally got the news that it came out to be normal. Oh I was filled with joy,you couldn't imagine .But the question is what is causing the leg thumping?I am back to worrying now. Is this just something he does that he can control like a stretching, or is it a sign or a symptom.

Chase peacefully sleeping .

Today chase fell asleep on his back by himself. With his acid reflex its hard and sometime impossible for him to fall asleep laying flat. So I was in shock and amazed that I just had to take pictures.

Worked on math homework for 40 minutes on 4 problems.I didn't remember math being so hard. I don't they are spending enough time teaching the lessons. Brooke came home fighting with me on how to do it. I kept trying to explain to her how and why I am doing what. But dividing decimals is a tough thing to understand. I had to look it up in the book my self its been so long and we depend on calculator to much.

Other then that really nothing interesting. I have been taking it easy today. My cold has got me tired and weak from coughing and just being sick in general is tougher on me. I may not hurt from this cold but I feel it in different ways. I am sore from coughing more then normal. I sleep but not solid. And my immune system is low from the medication it takes longer for me to fight anything. And once I get a cold its hard not to get it again in a week or so again.

 

Felt Like A Rainy Day,Just With Out The Rain.

I am running a day behind on blogging.Last night I just felt horrible. No energy, Coughing,and couldn't keep my eyes open after I got chase asleep.

The big question is still...Any news on chase's results?We are still touched on how many people care.But sad to report no news yet. Mike and I are getting very impatient,So I am calling today.And they told me that the results are faxed in to his doctor so I should have some news with tonight(Today's Blog).

Chase and I had a enjoyably morning of just playing around and cuddling. We both just couldn't get our self in the Monday mode.Well for chase everyday is the same.I think he likes the weekdays better then weekends because he gets all his naps in when we aren't running all over.

Chase got a Bumbo yesterday,You are probably thinking what is a Bumbo? Well its a infant seat that helps them to learn how to sit up. I been waiting for him to be able to hold his neck up by his self.And he is actually doing pretty well. And now he loves to hang out with Mommy in the kitchen.

In the kitchen while the kids were doing homework

Oh I skipped over the awkward conversation Mike and I had a talk with Brooke about female issues and puberty. Had to explain pads. She would kill me if she knew I was blogging about it. But like I told her, its just part of life. I am just not ready for the teasing of her younger sister once she starts. Cady will find if funny in some way shape or form. Thank God I had a boy.

While waiting for time to go by to pick up the pizza for dinner.Cady decide to read chase a book. She has been reading to him every day after school for AR.So I got the bumbo out so they could sit by each other and she enjoyed reading to him. I thought it was cute.

Chase loves to be read to and Cady loves to read.What a great match!

Just this darn cold made me tired all day and I went to bed with out blogging. I try to Blog at night so its still fresh in my memory. And I been trying to get a picture a day for the blog too.

I Dont Believe There Is Really 24Hrs In A Day

I needed nothing more then just peace yesterday. NOPE. To much to ask for. Spent 2 hours cleaning the floor because of a nasty mess that was made. I bleached and bleached then felt like taking a bleach bath. Yesterday seemed like it was only 4 hours in a day. It was like blink and it was gone. But got well somewhat of alot done. Made a roast for dinner,Bleached the floor and did some re organizing of the kitchen. Ran to wal mart while mike was home for lunch. Did a load of cloths. Kids came home and Ashley came over. There is no way to do anything with having company over plus the kids home.The kiddos act different with people over its like it gets them out of their routine. I use to be the same way...I think. Once the kids went to their moms. I was still none stop busy trying to pick up and vacuum when chase allowed.

Chase is getting so big its unbelievable.You cant really tell he was a preemie any more at all. Any where I go I have people asking if any results on his EEG.It touches me to know so many people care about the lil guy. But still no results. I am going to try and call them today to see if the doctors office is even open today being veterans days.

We got a semi busy weekend a head of us...And I still gotta get moving today. I know this blogs is once again a day late...but at least I get it done.

No News Means Good News?Maybe....

I am on edge waiting for chase's EEG now. I keep thinking well maybe if it was bad they would of got the results to use ASAP.But then again,I walked on a broken leg for a week once because they didn't get the results back till the day I went to the doctors about a headache problem and they just happened to get the results that morning.To look at chase and all the new things he does daily.I keep thinking positive.He is a moving little grooving boy. And his "talking" is really taking off. He can mimic sounds you make.When I say "I love you" He can make noises in the same tone pattern. He is proving he is developing strong and great. Makes mommy so tickled.

Holidays are right around the corner. And I am slowly looking forward to them. Thanksgiving is just about 2 weeks a way. One thing I am not looking forward to is all the food. I started this"diet" at the wrong time of the year. But full steam ahead. I am not dropping the diet for the holidays. I will only enjoy the food while I eat it. I will enjoy my size 11 jeans MUCH MORE. Oh how I miss them jeans. There folded up sitting in my closet just reminding me everyday that they miss me Tee Hee. Here soon I will be strutting "My stuff" in them!

I don't remember 6th grade homework being so difficult.Was sitting down with Brooke  and it was so frustrating for  her she was just about in tears. And was at the point she just gave up and was throwing her hair in her face and playing around with stuff. Being a step parent I didn't know what to do. I kept explaining over and over and it was like talking to a wall. She was just so burnt out on it. I didn't wanna tell her step by step to add this or subtract that. I was trying to explain it and talk it out so she would figure out what she need to do with the numbers. I was even putting them in every days things she would do. But she was just so frustrated, it made me frustrated right along with her. Teachers need to explain a little bit better or she needs a little extra help. Because I don't know what else to do?

Lets see you do this...With a smile

What a ugly rainy day out. It was one of them days where I just wanted to curl up on the sofa.Turn on some Rachael Ray and sip some hot chocolate. But it didn't happen. Chase slept pretty good last night. I got atleast 6 hours of sleep.With just one feeding in the early morning. Mike didnt have to work. He was home till early afternoon then went deer hunting. I went on a mad cleaning spree while I had some time till the kiddos got home. I been on a cleaning spree for a good 4 days.And you really cant tell. With keeping up with dishes and Chases needs. And meals,shopping a few times, a few hours to myself Saturday.So cleaning never really gets to the point where I can say ahhh I am done. All the leafs that come in and the dog chewing on stuff. The laundry I do daily. I cant really start on something that dont really need done and can wait and live around it. So I straighten up so stuff in the kitchen today. My collect all table is looking better. I dont have much to do with that tomorrow.And did a little more cleaning here in there till the kids got home.

I did get the chance to call the doctor about chases EEG results and no word yet. Still just twirling my thumps waiting. I was on the phone and my heart was in my stomach  scared for the nurse to come back on and tell me well we did get the results but doctors wants to go over them in office.But no news is good news maybe,Well I would like to think.

The kids come and it was hours of homework while I tried to cook dinner. Took 2 hours for 6th grade homework. Bring back memories of my past. Oh how I hated homework. We have homework with all the kids just about every night. While trying to do this, Chase wanted held. Environmental changes makes him want soothed. Tonight was hard to get him to sleep just has he gets use to the kids being around,they go to their moms and the cycle begins again. I am hoping he will get use to it soon.

I got my hands full never a moment when I could say I'm done. Their is something always calling my name!

My eyes are closing has I fight sleep typing this. I hope people don t take this has I am saying their lifes are not hard compare to min.

Just A Waiting Game Now...

Started off this day to early,5:30am came and I wasn't ready to wake up at all. I had to keep him up for a while last night so he would be tired for the EEG.We left the house at 6:30 and got on the at the hospital at 7:45.Chase did pretty good while putting on the wires on his head. Afterward he got all the wires on he wanted to sleep but couldn't because we was in a different place. At point in the test the tech called the other tech in and questioned/showed something. That's having me worried. Maybe it was nothing, Could of been good or bad. A technical difficulty or a error or it could of been something with chases health. We wont know for a week. So it just a waiting game now. 

This is the first time since we got home from the hospital that i can sit down and just relax. Chase has been moody ever since and wanted mommy to hold him so he can sleep most of the day. The kids had me running around the house like a chicken with out a head. And I was trying to do house work on top of this. Who do I contact to ask for more hours in a day?Or maybe a extra day in the week?

Tomorrow is a day closer to the weekend!Yaya!

I Just Want A Calm Week.

Once again I am a day late for my blog, I apologize.Yesterday was busy with chase wanting to be held a lot and waking up every 20 minutes wanting held and butt patted to sleep.With the tested he had today,I was worried sick about what the results would be. I will address more about the test in today's blog(this is yesterdays blog).

Its like every week its a appointment or two.I just want a calm week. No appointments and the kids not trash to house.I got enough to clean just picking up after my self.Maybe its time to get a chore chart started then maybe this house can run in a orderly fashion. That's what I am going to start.A chore chart.

Well off to clean the house..I hope to get today's blog posted tonight.

Two Weeks And Finally A Call Back

I am a day behind on blogging, I was so tired and in some pain. But yesterday I finally got a call back about chase's shacking he does with his legs. It only took the 2 weeks 1 call and talking to the nurse at his last weigh in. I really like his doctor and he is the one who delivered him in the emergency c-section. But the staff isn't good about call backs at all. But anyways,Doctor says knowing his history{guessing he means birth because i dont think reflex has anything to do with this}he wants a EEG done. Hearing that makes me so nervous thinking their could be something neurologically wrong with him. But with how the doctor brought up "knowing his history" makes me think they think it has something with the cord prolapse. Chase was coming out with his cord on his head so the cord was trying to come out first. I had a nurse holding his head off the cord the whole time from when they discovered this till the c-section.

His EEG his Wednesday, I pray they come back normal. I would rather find out something wrong is myself then my son...

This blog is cut short.Kids a getting home from school.
