now and then

comparitively, i am sooo much better i still have my days where all i want to do is sleep. we went to church on Sunday but by RS my head was pounding and i had to find stuart to leave. i walked up and he was freaking bc I was crying. (i don't do it ever) They had sung a song that got to me and that didn't make it any easier. i forgot to take my pain med's before we left, dumb on my part. dude it hurts, what do you expect. but after we got home stuart made a roast and i layed down with some great meds while the kids naped. He has been such a help. I have to get to Wallmart soon. but mabe later. I don't know if Stuart really wants to take me or not. Shopping together is soo hard bc we have exact opposite ideas and we are both strong willed and stubborn. But we both respect that in the end it REALY doesn't matter, which cereal we buy or not, as long as we get one.

so today, anika is teething pretty badly and ty is just playing in the house. He has started really imagineing things. At night he is scared of allegators and ghosts. i don't know where this has started but here we are. I got him a whale from Ikea that has worked at eating them and anything that is scaring him. just like in picnochio ( he got it form gram at easter).

Stuart amazingly has tons of work. like 80 hours a week up at the mine inspecting everything. thanks for job security. with everything else going on it would be crazy if that was not constant too. I mean we still are not finiancially stable, we are right where everyone else is but it is just bc of medical expenses.

Anika is needing different formula and it just makes me wish that i was still feeding her. She spits up at least 3/4 of what she eats and since i am homebound it makes changing formulas harder. She got her first shots on Friday and really didn't do that badly. that made me happy. Ty had every reaction in the book. I was ready for that again and it was a great blessing that it did not occur.

So there is a quick update.
Catch you soon.
