Yippie

after weeks of fighting with MiniMed I won :O)

MiniMed is an insulin pump company that Samantha's dr told us to go with for her pump. Well when I went to place the order with them they told me that Samantha had to be on insulin for 6 months before my insurance company would let her have the pump...I called the insurance company and they said there was no waiting time that she could have it right away..I called MiniMed back they still told me we had to wait...grrr now anyone who knows me knows I am not the best at waiting...lol so I of course called back and told them either now or never I would go with another company the very next day I got a call from them saying they would let her have it now..mind you that was 3 weeks ago. So today I was on a mission I thought we waited long enough for them to ship the pump ( dr told me it would take 2 weeks) so I called was getting ready to let loose on the women...when she said oh I was just going to call you we are shipping her pump out today :O) TG I didnt blast her like I had planned...lol most of the time I speak first feel like a fool later. So Samantha is on cloud 9 she should have her pump in a few days and start her classes in March. I cant wait I hope that the pump will help keep her under control right now we are having soooooooooooooo many 300's its crazy.

My baby is sick

My poor little guy is sick :O( he has a sinus infection and an ear infection we caught it pretty early TG he just started getting sick yesterday with a runny nose and by the middle of the night he was caughing and not happy all night. I took him to the Dr today and spent 3 yes 3 hours there over an hour and a half just in the waiting room, I didnt wait too long in the exam room and the Dr did come in right away and spent a long time in the room with us. Jorden had a very good look over and we spent time talking. Its funny when I go in there its more like he talks to me like we are friends half the time he talks about his kids or a vacation now I know why I sat so long in the waiting room the man LOVES to talk...lol
Jorden has gained a pound in 2 weeks he is now 10 pounds 12 oz and 24 inches long.
He is doing a bit better tonight at least he is sleeping and not coughing when he is laying down like last night.

more snow days


Yesterday was our 3rd snow day in a little over a week. Last week the kids had two of them I even got one...my Dr called and cancel my 6 week check up due to the snow. Monday they had off because the news said there was going to be a storm but we didnt get it. then on Friday again we were suppose to get a huge storm but only got about 3 inches no reason to cancel school or my o.b appointment but the kids were happy. Yesterday was the first time we had a snow day that was for real...lol
Still trying to play catch up in this house I just cant seem to motivate myself these days. I have sooooo much to do here but as you can see I am here instead :O)

Jorden is getting so big his check up last week he was 9 pounds 14 oz and 24 inches long..funny how 3 inches can seem so much bigger!!! He is sleeping all night from 10 to about 8 in the morning but he isnt napping much if any durning the day time. I cant complain because he is happy, but even happier if I am holding him which I just seem to find myself doing most of the time. The kids are still all over him they cant keep their hands off of him. If he even makes a squeak they go running to see why. I am just happy he is so loved and wanted by the kids. Christopher, Steven and Samantha are already talking about another baby they even have names picked out...lol Speaking of another baby I know I must be crazy but the thought of another has popped in my head already. We are not be safe so there is always that possibility even if its a slight one.

David will be leaving for Iraq next week they gave him the date of March 14th :O(
I dont even want to think about it. The only thing that saves me is he will be on an air force base since he works on plans. He said the place he is going has internet access so we can talk to him via internet TG. He keeps trying to reassure me he will be fine and is looking forward to going, the only down side he said is he will miss us and some of his buddies that are now in his squadron but most of his buddies are in his and will be going with him.
