2006...so far

Posted in Mommy Babble
Well, this hasn't been the best year we have had.  SUPER DADDY's work situation is hmmm...uneasy is a good word for it.  He has been with this company for 17 years...haven't they heard of loyalty?!?!?  I have decided the way to the bosses heart is through his stomach!  Baking, I can do!!!  It's not that SUPER DADDY is going to lose his job, but we will loose drug coverage...yipes with 7 kids!  His pay could also be cut if his part of the company isn't as profitable as the boss wants.  It's scary!!!!  Looking for another job is an option, but not until after the New Year.
 
My Dad, PAPAW, and his sister, AUNT MELON, both have lung cancer.  Things don't look as good as we would like, and it is expensive!  My grandmother and her sister died of cancer, both had lung cancer...and other areas were affected with cancer.  This weighs heavily on me!  I never even tried smoking, but to know that I lived in a house with my parents when they smoked...needless to say, it bothers me...ALOT!  My mom, MAMAW, was given anti-depressants by my dad's cancer doc.  I hope it helps her!  Please, remember them in your prayers, they aren't Christians, and it weighs heavily on me!
 
We have been exceptionally healthy this year...until now!  BEBE has an upper respiratory infection and an ear infection, and MIMI has bronchitis and a double ear infection.  I failed them by not putting the herbal ear drops (Hear No Evil by Trilight Herbs) in when they started getting the sniffles.  MIMI is having to take antibiotics, steroids, and breathing treatments.  BEBE is just on antibiotics.  Everyone else, except me, has the sniffles and a little coughing.  Usually that means I will wait to get sick until everyone is well, and I will get it the WORST!
 
Today, BEBE turned over for the first time!  She was laying on her back, about to get her diaper changed, and she rolled over to her stomach.  Sweet thing!
 
Ok, time for me to quit blogging and go to bed, as I feel weepy.  Sweet dreams!
