Happy Halloween

Today we celebrated our first Halloween in South Carolina!  We had an awesome time Trick or Treating and it was actually warm!!  Peanut was Luigi and Beanie was Spider Bat (a cross between Spider man and Batman) Pixie was Tinkerbell,  I did pictures of the kids today!  They came out so cute.  I can't wait to get some of them printed out!!!!!  The Boys collected 22lbs of candy.  Yes that's right I said 22lbs.  What in the world are we going to do with all of this candy??  Oh why yes EAT IT!!!!  I missed hanging out with my Buffalo friends but I am sure glad we found a few good friends down here in SC

Sunday Funday

Today we hung around the house again!!  DH and I got a few things done like laundry and hanging curtain rods.  Thank goodness those curtains don't have to wander around the living room anymore.  I went to Babies R Us today to get some things to organize Peanut and Beanies room and totally got sidetracked by the Christmas dresses.  I can't wait to buy her dress and get pretty hair bows and shoes! If I can find some to fit!.

Goals for the week (maybe if I write them down on here they will get done)
Take Halloween pics of all three kiddos
Finish organizing boy's room
Finish Pixi's Halloween costume
Finish fold and put away laundry

There I said it now I just have to do it lol!!

Celebrate Day

Yesterday was Celebrate Day (a day made up by a friends daughter).  We spent most of the day relaxing.  Peanut and Beanie spent the day playing on the computer and hanging out as hurricane Sandy is moving along the coast and we got her rain and some wind.  Nothing serious it just meant no playing outside.  Pixie was hanging out in my room after Peanut and Beanie went to bed.  I had her on a waterproof pad with no diaper because she has a diaper rash that needed some air.  I placed her on her tummy after a while and was watching her reach for toys.  She rolled to her side like she has done so many times before and suddenly ROLLED OVER!!!  We have been waiting for this for a while now!!  She will be 19 weeks corrected on Monday!!  I was so happy I almost cried!!   So on Celebrate Day we celebrated a very large milestone!!  Pixie only did it once but she still did it!!  Peanut is getting so smart!!  He knows how to go on You Tube and watch videos!!  Thank goodness the computer is in the living room so that we can monitor what they are doing.  Beanie is learning quickly too.  I can't believe how big my babies are getting!!!!   I love watching them learn and grow.  We are so blessed to have 3 healthy smart children!!

I also entered a contest today to win a bunch of cool stuff from www.mom365.com  It was a contest about dreaming babies!  Check it out and enter to win!

Hopefully the weather will clear up and we can go outside and take some pictures of the clan as we are WAY overdue!!

What to do, What to do

Well again long time no write......  Things have been going well for our family.  We did have a little scare with Pixie a few weeks ago.  She saw our new ped. whom I love!!  and was referred to a cardiologist for a follow up for the murmur they heard at the hospital in Buffalo.  We went to the cardiologist who was also AWESOME!! Thank you Dr. P.  Pixie had an Echo cardiogram done.  She has Pulmonary Steno-sis.  Not a huge deal the Pulmonary valve is a little big.  We then went to the Medical University of South Carolina for a head ultrasound.  The results were normal.  It was determined that Pixie just needs to grow into her heart and she should be fine.  Pixie will have another Echo in six months just to be sure.

On another note....  Have you ever felt like you are lost and you don't know which way to go?  I have been feeling like that a lot lately.  I think that most of it has to do with the fact that I don't have my own space in the house and I am not really doing much of anything for me.  I feel like I had this picture in my head of the kind of parent I want to be and I don't see it happening and it is very very frustrating.  I get all of these ideas in my head of things that I want to do with the kiddos and then......  it never happens for one reason or another.  The other portion could be that I have a lot of medical issues that need to be sorted out and I am not sure that I have the energy right now to sort them out.  I need to find a good medical team that is all on the same page.  Please feel free to comment and let me in on the secrets you have found to remedy this issue!!

The house in Buffalo still hasn't sold if you know of anyone that wants to live in the Lancaster Depew area let me know!!!
