I've rescheduled for May 18th at a more reasonable hour (11:30 am.) Maddie slept good last night, but still has a runny nose and her little voice is scratchy!! Today is MY 's 18th bday!!! Alison made her a card and we just brought roses and breakfast up to her. So cute. Her friends are taking her out to dinner and then ALL TEN GIRLS will be sleeping over. YIKES!!!! I'm having my aunt for dinner to help celebrate the big event and then when dh comes home, we'll celebrate it again.....IN Disneyworld!! We leave on Wednesday. DH is in San Fran on business . He'll be home early Monday morning (he's taking a red eye). He has to go away a few days a month, to State College, PA, but it's always for just one night. This time, it's four. I hate it when he's away............not because of the extra workload, but I miss him.... Donna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL >> ROTFLOL Gail!!!! You are a riot!!! Oh . I just realized I didn't answer your question. The visit to the endocrin with Maddie was just an annual check up for her hypothyroidism. But even those visits that should be stress-free never are for her. Just taking her blood pressure (they really never get an accurate reading), temperature and trying to weigh her is an exhausting experience. Often, I have to get on the scale first, then they weigh us together and subtract....LOLOL Donna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted March 12, 2001 Hi Donna, I hope had a great 18th birthday! Sounds like a lot of fun having a lot of girls spend the night. I hope she had a better day than we did. It was my husband's birthday yesterday too and Brook celebrated it by breaking our marble coffee table I inherited from my Grandmother. I don't know if I should try and replace the marble table top since he might just break it again. Anyway my poor husband didn't get a good start to his special day.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 13, 2001 Donna, Have a great time in DW!! I sure wish I was going with you. I hope everything goes great and that Miss Maddie enjoys herself. Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in and she'll be feeling fine for your vacation. Hope Duff feels okay too, strep can be pretty awful!! I'll have to tell my husband that Duff accepts calls on chemistry and algebra when he is traveling. My oldest son, Miles, 14 yrs, 8th grade, is in high math, which is an accelerated algebra class. Last time he went away I had my sister and her husband on standby for algebra homework. They live in San Francisco which is close by and are willing to fill in. It has been so long since I have done any algebra that I just don't have a clue. is a biochemist so we have science and math pretty well covered. Let us know how it goes at DW.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 13, 2001 Donna, That's so true about needing the VCR. We may not be able to get Brook into a summer camp this year because he needs a one on one aide which is harder to come by and my dh dearly wants to go on a vacation somewhere. So dh was thinking we could rent a place up at Lake Tahoe. All I can think about is will they have a VCR?? We have to have that!! I guess maybe we could bring our own. Then my next concern is how will we keep Brook in bed. At home we lock him in his room everynight. So dh says he will sleep with Brook. Then I'm thinking what kind of a vacation is this going to be. I would love a place that we could all go to and enjoy as a family. Brook is crazy for water, but Lake Tahoe is way too cold. It would also have to be somewhere we could drive to since I'm not crazy enough to try Brookie on an airplane. Maybe we'll get brave this summer and try a vacation with Brook.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 13, 2001 >Well, I may be able to still come on. We're taking the laptop so that that is neat, i also take my laptop when i go to iowa city with nathan whcih is pretty regualarly, and they are a good 4hours away from home, I just log onto the free internet they have in iowa city, (have it downloaded on my laptop)and i can check my emails, chat, even chat with hubby (him on our desktop at home) and its all free, saves tons of $$$ than using the phone does, it comes in real handy especially for those long stays at UIHC like tomarrow we leave and will be gone almost 2weeks, pray that it is a good and productive trip. shawna. >From: duffey48@... >Reply-To: >To: >Subject: Re: Re: Donna >Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2001 08:44:48 EST > >In a message dated 3/12/01 2:10:43 PM Eastern Standard Time, >smilinggail@... writes: > ><< .

Guest guest Report post Posted March 13, 2001 Marisa..not sure where you live...there is a camp for kids like ours in Sonora called Christian Berets and they have one on one counselors. Regional Center pays for it all except the registration fee of $100. They are chirstians and based out of Modesto. Judy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted March 13, 2001 >our own. Then my next concern is how will we keep Brook in bed. At home we >lock him in his room everynight. So dh says he will sleep with Brook. Then marisa, i used to have this fear too with nathan when we went camping, he had one of those vail beds cause he use to wander and leave the house too its served its purpose he has learned to mainly stay in his room, he still uses the vail bed, just no vail over it anymore, it was a long training process for him, but anyways when we went camping i put one of those body or personal alarms we call them in health care, you pin the alarm to the tent or fasten someshwere on door if have camper or cabin, and clip the end of the string to door or zipper, so when he tries to go out or unzip, it will go off ofcarse waking you, so you can make sure he doesnt wander off. Or you culd just get a 20-30 dollar door alarm to put up while at cabin, we use to have those at our house, nathan left the house twice around 3-6am, once riding trike in road, and another ging in someones house, you can get the coded kind or the key kind, very effective. shawna. >From: poggim@... >Reply-To: >To: >Subject: Re: Re: Donna >Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2001 14:42:20 EST > >Donna, > That's so true about needing the VCR.

We do everything imaginable... he has had 3 sinus surgeries, tonsils, adenoids, constant antibiotocs, both oral and nasal spray. But we just got back from a four day mini vacation at one of the Disney resorts and after 4 days baking in the sun and swimming in the pools and playing in the sand, he looks like a different person. His face was soooo broken out and chapped, and now his skin is beautiful and the puffiness is gone. Ironically, we live 30 minutes from the Mouse, but this was my first vacation with the boys as a single mom and I didn't want to venture too far. We really had a great time. I hope things go well for you. If you need anything, let me know. Connie Mom to (7), and Austin(5), (5)DS-ASD and (5).

Guest guest Report post Posted March 14, 2001 man...we need some of that sunny warm weather here too! Nick's face is chapped all winter no matter what and how often we put stuff on it and his nose is so yucky...one sneeze and he needs half a box of kleenex...have spent a fortune on kleenex this winter. the upside is that Nick has learned to throw tissues in the garbage!
