Where do they get these things??

First, let me say, Noah is home from the hospital! We are both exhausted as it is not so easy to sleep when nurses are coming in to check vitals, give meds, administer breathing treatments, etc at all hours of the night. Noah is not 100% but certainly getting better by the minute. ...he and I are both looking forward to catching some zzz's in our own beds.

Anyway, I was bringing Hannah (age 6) home from gymnastics tonight...she asked if she could play with my phone. Sure, why not. Next I hear, she is pretending to call someone. Apparantly the "person" on the other end answered, she responds "Hey, what up?" It was too funny. Whatever happened to a simple, "Hi, this is Hannah. Is so-and-so there?"

Another Day

Noah will not be coming home from the hospital today. He is doing better but can't seem to keep his oxygen levels up so we are there for at least another day (or two). Thank you to everyone for all of the well wishes.

Some exciting things to note:

1 - After getting notice at 1:50 on Saturday that Noah tested positive for the flu, we were still able to pull off Hannah's 6th b-day party....thank you to Michelle and Debbie. They were lifesavers!! She had a wonderful party and our front room looks like a toy store!!

2 -- Noah lost his 2nd tooth last night -- and somehow, the tooth fairy managed to find him in the hospital. He was very concerned about that!


Please keep your fingers crossed that Noah is able to get home in time for his own b-day party this weekend.

MN purchases

While I was in MN last week for work, I got together with my two friends Cheryl and Jing-Jing. Jing-Jing is a friend that I met online at a scrapbooking site. Who knew you could actually meet somewhat normal (LOL) people online who share the same interests as you?!? Anyway, while there, she made sure that I hit not one but two Archivers stores since we don't have those on the east coast. While I haven't actually been scrapping all too much lately, especially not with the sickness that have hit my house of late, I did manage to put this layout together tonight using supplies I picked up on clearance out in MN. If you notice, I also picked up a new MS punch this week that I used as well. One more done for the books!

Update

As you have all heard, Noah has pneumonia. It has been a rough couple of days but we are getting through it. It is likely that Michael has the same thing and finally yesterday he called his doctor and got some meds. So hopefully he is on the mend.

I had Noah at the pediatrician this morning for a follow-up visit (we were in the ER on Wednesday). He is not getting any better. They are still very much concerned with his breathing. He is now on an oral steroid in addition to all of the other medicines that were perscribed in the ER. We go back to the pedicatrician first thing tomorrow morning again.

Hannah had a nice b-day yesterday..thanks for the b-day wishes. We got her the DS she has been hounding us for since last year. She was most excited. Although, she was told prior to unwrapping what it was. Apparantley when I told Noah two days ago what we got Hannah, Sarah insisted she could keep a secret so he told her as well. As you know, a 4 year old can NOT keep a secret. Needless to say, Hannah knew exactly what she was getting, color and everything! So much for surprises!
