Since my last post....
- My camera that was having issues, but working, is now NOT working at all.
- My dishwasher is again having issues ....which is frustrating since we recently spent a decent chunk of $$$ to fix it...and now may need a new one.
- This past Friday a vacuum fell on my foot..thought I broke it...since I had excruciating pain and it looked like a balloon. Since the weekend was ahead AND because my husband and I had a long over due, day out planned on Sat., I decided I should go to the Dr. and have it checked out.
- But because it was my right foot I couldn't drive...I called to see if my husband could come home....he said he could....but when he went to his car his battery was dead...thus we had to buy a new car battery!
- My foot was thankfully not broken but very sore! It ended up being ok enough the next day to go on my day out with my husband...but while we were out I ended up getting a headache, which, with the sun and 90 degree temps, turned into a migraine, and by the time we were home I was sick to my stomach and ended up having severe vomiting.
- Early this week Lauran had her transfusion...and the clinic was extremely full and loud...not to mention she had a complete melt down about watching a movie,which made for a long appt.
- Despite her transfusion and a small break from tantrums last week... she went right back to her behavior issues this week, one of which started outside at Megan's t-ball game for the whole world to see and hear. Needless to say I left the park..which made it worse... and the whole thing ended up going on for an hour!
- After a little thinking on my part and looking at other "symptoms"she seems to have lately...I called her nurse to discuss some other possible causes for her mood swings and am praying my discussion leads to answers...in the mean time we have an appt with the child development center.
- The last couple days Megan has been under the weather with a sore throat and fever.
- And lastly, today, all day, were storms and torrential down pours and my husband was temporarily stranded on a flooded road on his way home from work...but thankfully made it home safely!
Ok..well I think that pretty much covers life over the past 10 days. Summer can be a lot of work sometimes with 4 kids home, but also a lot of fun and I won't pretend the last few weeks have put a damper on my summer spirit!
I know in the grand scheme of things, most of the "bad" over the past few weeks really is not that big of deal. It has just been a lot at once. The mood swings Lauran is having are difficult and confusing though, and I am praying God reveals some answers soon. The way I described it to the nurse is that it is like a light switch getting turned on and off. The difference is like day and night. To go months with her being a compliant, well behaved, happy, typical little 4 yr old girl, to the complete opposite over the last month, makes me feel like something else is wrong!
Anyways..if you are reading this and feel like praying for us, I'd appreciate it!
We love Lauran, challenges and all, and I am trusting God in the process of working it all out!
I will end with a couple of the "few" pictures I have from some of the better days we've had this summer...the beach and the zoo!
