FOREVER... I KNOW!!!

I know, I know, It has been forever. There are some not so good reasons and then there are the legitimate ones.

First the not so good ones… there was nothing going on… the good one, she was really sick.

In the last month she has had spirit week at school where they got to dress up different each day. Natalie missed Wednesday and Thursday due to Pink Eye. This was crazy hair day.




Yep I let my daughter out of the house looking like this!!!

Natalie is one!!! We had a party for her the weekend of the 18th. She had a great time. Nana came in town and took some pictures but I do not have them yet… She had a Dora the Explorer party and was not too fond of her cake. All of her gifts talk and make all kinds of noise. She got an Elmo from her Aunt Megan that actually talks to her. It says 'Good morning, Natalie' and ' Natalie's favorite food is grits, Elmo's favorite food is grits too' You can not turn this thing off but you can reprogram it. She also got another talking Elmo that she seems to like better, I think it is because it does not call her by name. Nana got her 2 books and she LOVES books as well as a "special" outfit, you will have to wait for pictures to see this one! She also now has her OWN cell phone that you can program. She still knows that it is not the real deal and prefers ours.

On Wednesday of last week she went to school and then went to the gym with Daddy, got home ate dinner and then the "FUN" started. She was getting ready to go to bed and she just started projectile vomiting. In fact, she got a friend of ours that was over for dinner. We thought it was a one time deal… we were so very wrong. She missed Thursday and Friday from school and did not do anything but sleep all weekend. The only outing was a trip to the ER for fluids since she could not keep ANYTHING down and she had a fever of 105. She is feeling much better today. Yesterday she was still not feeling like herself and slept a lot at school. Out of the 5 kids in her class 3 of them have had this virus and the other 2 are still out. Joe just called and he is going home sick… I hope he does not get this!!!

Like I said she is back to herself now and making her latest face….

She has taken a couple of steps but nothing committing to walking yet. I will keep you all posted.

Hope everyone is doing well!!

Ouch....

Monday at school Natalie had her first accident. She was playing in the ball pit and fell onto the side where there was some velcro. She scrapped her nose on the side and now has velcro marks on her nose and one on her jaw line.
