Gaga came home from the grocery store yesterday with these HUMONGOUS apples. She said the guy at the grocery store told her that they are only available once a year and that there are never many produced because they are so large. Anyway, they are normally like $2.80 per pound!!! Anyone that knows me knows that, if I spend that much on an apple, it's time to take me in to see the shrink. However, this guy at H.E.B told her that they had marked the price wrong so she picked up a couple for the kids before they could correct it. Yes, that is how we roll!!!
I'm not sure what name these apples go by, but after we have entertained with them, showed the off and taken lots of pictures we will eat them. We still have quite a few people we want to show them to. Does this say anything about our lives? Are we missing a little excitement here?? I don't care. I'm a mom and a huge apple was the highlight of my day!!!!
Ok, now it's time to rant:
I am waiting for a day in this house where everyone is NOT sick and I mean EVERYONE. Most of us had colds last week. Ralph's turned into an infection, but a shot in the rear and $100 bucks of medicine seem to have cleared that up. I got over my cold, only to start coming down with the infection part yesterday. I was not feeling well. A visit with doctor Ashlyn fixed that right up. She gave me some medicine and I am on the mend. Oh, for any real doctors reading this, I really drove to the doctors office, sat patiently forever with patient little Nicholas, got some antibiotics and stuff, and drove home.
I think that Nicholas may be getting a sinus infection too. I have come to realize that when a poopie diaper makes the entire house smell with a smell like you have never smelled before (you know, a smell, a smelly smell that smells...smelly), there is usually some type of infection, usually sinuses. Now, did I tell you that these diapers were awful? I cannot tell you enough. Usually we are able to put dirties in the diaper pail and deal with them later, but not these. These had to be RUN outside with noses held and slammed into the trashcan. There were two dead garbagemen in our front yard when we came home. We wanted to go to Walmart to get some flowers for my dad's grave after preschool so I took Jake and Nic and loaded them up in the basket and noticed, as we were walking in with no diaper bag, that I could smell that familar stench. You guessed it, we went on in anyway. Wasn't bothering Nicholas and Jacob only commented on the stinkky once. We are banned from Walmart for a month!!!!
Jacob is not sick, but he is injured. He came in yesterday after lunch and told Gaga and me that his thumb hurt. Upon inspection, we found what looked like a blister the size of a dime on the tip of his thumb. We tried asking him what happened, but he never could tell us. He said he burned it on the fire at camp. He has never been camping or to a camp. If there is a camp for rowdy three years olds, please tell me. He told me a fireman did it. Daddy's car did it (Daddy was a work), my car did it. Now, I may not notice everything all the time, like forgetting keys, forgetting wallets, forgetting what I came to the store for. But I assure you I would have known about slamming his little thumb in the door of the car. Which reminds me of the time I slammed my breast in the hatchback of the 4-runner at HEB!! To make a long story short. I was stuck and had my mom not been with me when it happened, I may have had to ask someone for help getting my boob out of the car door. Yes, it hurt and Jacob never liked that side as much for nursing!! Anyway, I digress. We never did figure out how he got this big blister, but I did turn into a large painful blood blister!!! He's in pain so it looks like we are going to try and make a 2 for 1 pediatricians appt. today.
Austin is not sick (at least physically). Hahahah, I joke. He is having problems with a kid at school hitting and kicking him. This is the same kid who eats smoked oysters, with Tabasco sauce for lunch. Is it just me, or does this kid sound dangerous? I have sent a note to the teacher today and this will hopefully help.
That's pretty much all that is going on around here. Well, not all, but enough for me!!! We are still waiting on the house to be done, but should be moving in within a couple weeks. Hopefully when we are all WELL!!!
