The boys loved it and I loved it. Brian liked it...he doesn't 'love' any movie. It was really a good movie and so sweet. I can see why they fell in love with him.

Look what I found from 2008
This was a fun thing for Chase and I to do by ourselves in Daytona and neither one of us had ever done it before. It was a good memory when I found this today.
FINALLY, I get to see it too!
First, a little snippet on my basal cell progress. It's all removed with 1 1/2" incision, get the stitches removed in 1 1/2 weeks and that chapter of my life is done. YAY!
Back to my scheduled blogger.
We only have 3 children for the afternoon/evening. So weird! Just 3 sweet boys. The girls went to aunt/uncle M and A's for some alone time treat with who knows what, but I'm sure they will enjoy it. Since they're gone we decided to watch a movie that would be over the girls' heads and they wouldn't sit still for, but I really want to see. So, we have a free PPV and we're using it "The Blind Side". Everyone else and their brother has seen this already and the older boys do want to watch it to, so pizza and a movie tonight. Just gotta keep little man busy.
What I miss tonight I can rewatch tomorrow, but it's not quiet the same. Can't wait!!

Soda? What's that?
My husband's coworker texted him a line of jokes...semi redneck, which are totally understandable in this area and if you don't get them...you gotta wonder.
It reminded of something Kaelin said a few years ago. I reminded Brian and we realized we really should add it to the line. She doesn't speak properly at all; still. Not for lack of us trying though. We generally do not speak like the hicks people may think those of us around here are. I do, however, have a bad habit of saying 'ya'll' and it comes out quicker than I can correct myself.
However, my Korean born cutie has always has this slightly southern twang to some words....heel, beel (i.e. hill, bill). So one night she said something to me, of course I can't remember exactly what she said now, but I couldn't understand her and I made her explain what she was saying. She was using the word 'soda'.
She was basically saying something to the affect of 'you put a lid on the milk soda milk doesn't spill'. I was laughing at her for days!

Allergies...that never go away.
So, yesterday I had to go get retested so that they could reevaluate my serums for my shots. Out of 39 tests they found about 6 that I was less sensitive to. So those will be ramped up in my serum hoping to make things better for me. However, the others all stayed the same and a couple actually got worse. The major ones were, of course, mold and dust that you can't escape. HUGE welts on my arm. The nurse and nurse practitioner taking care of me couldn't believe how bad my allergies still are. I preface this by saying I've already done 8 years of shots with another doctor. He told me he had done all he could for me and few years later when I wok up gasping for air this doctor says he can make a difference.
The nurse said there are only a couple of things I'm NOT allergic to. She asked if I knew I was allergic to cats. Uh kinda. I had one hair that flew onto my neck a couple of years ago and I almost scratched it raw. She offered me some steroid shots every 3 months to help me breath, but I'm pretty much used to the way it is and don't need more crap in my body. I'll just stay on what I'm on and not add to it and deal.
Hey, a little progress is a little and maybe someday I'll be able to do with less.

Gotcha Days All Around
Friday was Kaelin's Gotcha Day (aka the day she came to us). Monday is Chelsi's Gotcha Day. These two days in March make March what it is....great...even when it's not so great. Usually, I find myself thinking about certain days, regardless of where I am, physically, that particular day. I find myself reminiscing about their calls on March 15 and March 17th, respectively. Or should I say Kaelin's email travel call, because I was on the internet whining about my baby coming home and they couldn't reach me. This was back in the day of no DSL you know.
Kaelin has now been home with us for 7 years and Chelsi will be with us 4 years tomorrow. Ahhh...what would our lives be like without them. Definitely, not as stressful, but mostly, not as rich, wonderful, entertaining, beautiful and special. We gained a special love from them and they gave us this gift. They were our gift.
We love you girls!
Love mom and dad.

What a busy week!
One more day to go and about 1/2 way through today I just felt exhausted. I've been working extra time to finish a work project and it's been serving to make up time off for all of my medical appointments lately.
I did find out that I'm fine and don't need surgery other than to remove my skin cancer. That's next week and once it's done it's done. Not much to really worry about. I was pretty ticked when I saw the surgeon about the so-call fibroadenoma. Not at her; I was mad at the staff and radiology department of the hospital who stink at communication. First the surgeon walk in and tells me to tell her about the discharge. Uh, um, what? I said "who said that?" She tells me I did in September with my first ultrasound. I told her I had, in fact, never mentioned this because it's never happened. She promptly removed it from my erecords. Then, I told her that they told me they referred me because the radiologist thought it was a fibroadenoma and he didn't want to biopsy it. Well, apparently, this wasn't true either. She said they still thought it was a good possibility it was just a sebaceous cyst as diagnosed 3 years ago. Uh, maybe they should keep the patient in on that loop and I wouldn't have worried at all! So she takes a look and tells me she feels that's exactly what it is and these cannot be biopsied as my is to attached to my skin and superficial. She must have really been in the mood to cut though, 'cause she quickly told me she could take it off right then and there. I told her since she was SO sure of what it was and that there was pretty much no chance it was cancer and it wasn't bothering me I don't really want cut. So, I walked out with no surgery appointment and no cuts. YAY!
All I have left is my yearly allergy testing and my skin removal next week. Easy breezy!
We haven't gotten to read (the girls and with Junie B) last night or tonight. Last night was CCD and tonight was gymnastics and parent/teacher...at the same time, of course. So, Cole stayed home, Brian took the two middles and I took the two littles and we went our separate ways. The girls were not happy that there was no time for Junie B, but geesh, momma needed some rest. Jaemin had a great time watching gymnastics. More he was trying to get the other parents' attention and then he'd run away if anyone looked like they may touch him. Mommy needs to protect him if they get too close ya know. We were walking out to the car after gymnastics and Chelsi tells me she wants to go more. One day a week isn't enough. She says gymnastics are great because the whole time she gets to do all her favorite things every time. :) I think she found her niche!
I will probably not work after work overtime tomorrow, but am hoping to get in early so I can leave early and take little man (my bubby) to the doctor. He's probably not too bad anymore, but I'm tired of realizing that he gets worse on the weekends. He had that sinus infection, 2 weeks ago, back up into his eyes with a really low grade fever and the fever came back one night last week, but we're still having to do eye drops every few days because it's still coming out. We're just going to have him checked out. 2 weeks is long enough for him to muck with this. He's obviously not feeling too bad though. No fever and great moods!
Have a good night.
