Did you miss me?
Sorry I haven't posted in a while...things have been sort of hectic,what with Isaac being sick&getting caught up on my classes,having a lady coming over to give us an estimate on our tub getting resurfaced....cleaning up the house,and then of course Isaac feeling better and deciding to get in trouble .Which I am sure is attributed to the fact that he missed out on so much trouble while he wasn't feeling good.....lol!! Naturally bloggin' took a back seat:)
but I am so glad he is feeling better. And I am so thankful that his fever and getting really sick once is the only thing he came down with after the vaccine.I don't know how he would have handled actual pocks. My guess is it would have drove him batty(or maybe just me?)
And I am so excited to get our tub resurfaced!!Right now our tub looks so bad.So bad infact that I wouldn't dare to post a pic of it.However, I will once it is done.We,at first toyed with the idea of just installing a new tub.But that is a major remodel,and honestly something that we can't really afford right now...because of the fact that I am not working.I am so glad my mom told me about the lady that does the resurfacing!! New tub effect at a fraction of the cost...350.00 is what it's gonna cost to get this done.And it comes with a 5 year warranty!!We have to take that cats to a kennel,and go stay with family for 3 days after she does it because of all the chemicals....but I honestly feel it will be well worth it!!I'm so EXCITED!!!Yay:):)
In other exciting news, I am almost done with my classes!!2 more lessons,and 3 finals due by June 6th!!Then I am all done:)*at least until Sept/Oct.*
That's all I got right now!!You all better have an AWESOME day!

Yay,Sadie &Lindsay!!!(and another story too)
Yep,these two awsome chickadees graduated from LCSC today!!
Sadie graduated with a bachelors of science~Buisness Administration,
And Lindsay,with a bachelors in Education~Elementary Education,and a minor in Reading.
Way to go:)
We really did have a good time at the ceremony.Isaac made friends with a nice lady who was sitting behind us,and I only had to leave the stands to change him once...lol:)Believe it or not,this was the most relaxed part of the day despite the crowded stands,and the stuffiness of the auditorium.
The day actually started out pretty good, even though Isaac&I had to get up extra early for his 15 month check up.I was totally looking forward to him not having to have a vaccination.....then the nurse suggested that we go ahead and have him get his Chicken Pox Vaccine.I really didn't think much of it, seeing that Isaac never really had problems with other ones he has gotten before.Boy was I wrong!
After we got home I made Isaac breakfast(early lunch).Now,Usually he (especially as of late) does pretty good with breakfast.......eats some,throws a little,eats some more ,throws some more...yadda yadda yadda......But today was different.He wanted nothing to do with it......and I also noticed that he felt a little warm.(I actually thought he felt a little warm when we got up too, but that is besides the point) He was playing normal though,so I thought maybe he was just having an off day.
So fast forward to the middle of the day........he still did not want to really eat anything except for garam crackers,and drink juice....and he still felt a little warm.
Now fast forward a little more to about the time Aaron,Isaac&I left for the Graduation.I told Aaron that I didn't think Isaac was feeling very good.And I told him again during the graduation.Then after it was over,we were invited to go to dinner with Aarons mom and stepdad.I told Aaron I didn't think we should go....but he insisted.
So we went ,and then when we got there,( and this probably seemed kind of rude if you didn't know what I was thinking) right in front of everybody I turned to Aaron&said again that I didn't think we should have came,and asked him if we could go,and of course he said no.So we got us some chairs and sat down.Aarons mom wanted to hold Isaac....and as I was looking at him in her lap, I thought he didn't look too good...and at about exactly the same time that we got out drinks, Isaac BARFED all over Martie.I felt so flipping horrible for that....and I felt just sick to my stomach that we didn't just take Isaac home so he could rest.I really felt like the worst mommy ever!
And that is why I am up so late.I called the on call DR not too long ago(@midnight) to ask him what he thought was going on,and to tell him that I just took his Temp, and that it was 100.6. He was pretty positive this was from the vaccine....even though Isaac did feel warm this morning.
So needless to say,Isaac is going to be taking it easy tomorrow(err....today) so he can get back to being my healthy little man.
And one more thing......I think Aaron learned that he should listen to me more when it come to Isaac......at least I hope!!

Latarian has struck again....
Yes,the 7 year old boy who stole Grammys SUV is at it again.
I guess hoodrat stuff just isn't good enough.He had to beat down Grandma at wal mart,because she wouldn't buy him chicken wings.Yes Chicken wings.
Apparently this boy is being held on a 72 HR mental health hold.

No need to say anything more.

Finding Treasure
So on Tuesday,Isaac pooped his penny out.If you can't tell by the picture,it is a 1977 copper penny.
Did you know that after 1982,they started making pennies almost entirely out of zinc?The only reason I know this, is because I was getting a little paranoid about Isaac not having pooped his penny out yet,so I did the dumbest thing ever......I googled the subject.
Yeaaaaah.....if you swallow a penny made after 1982,the zinc in the penny will have a chemical reaction to the acids in your stomach and it will become all jagged,threatening tears in the stomach lining.Seriously!I did not need to know that.....DO NOT google stuff that you know you will hate yourself for later...
But I digress......
All is well with my little piggy bank,and I will do my best at keeping the spare change away from him:)
