Hmm...the ex never seems to amaze me!!

Well what a surprise? The ex called tonight and I was quite shocked. He asked if Emma was there. I thought about telling him "Well I have no idea where she is!"...but of course I said "yes, where else would she be?" Anyhow, he asked to speak with her. Me being the curious sort asked why? He said I want to tell her "Happy Birthday!" Hmm...good golly! I almost died. I had to then inform him that Emma's birthday was on Monday. He didn't say anything! I let Emma have the phone and they talked. I'm just wondering how in the world he forgot when her birthday was????? Any ideas? Thank god Emma is too young to remember it! He had her on her birthday and never knew it!

The ex!!!!

The girls were supposed to be home today but unfortunately the ex felt like he didn't have to bring them home. We had agreed that he would bring them back on Sunday like always but.....at 11 am I got a text from him. Hmm...Asking whether or not it was okay for him to bring them back in the morning? Isn't that a little late notice. Oh but gotta love his excuse....." he has gotten thrown around at work and he has a murder trial that is supposed to start this week." I suppose if I were stupid this excuse could work. I am sure a murder trial just doesn't pop up out of nowhere. Oh well! Once again, he disappoints me! You would think I would be used to it by now. Although he did call after I asked why his fiance couldn't bring them home? He just simply said that wouldn't be a good idea. Hmm...well that isn't my problem. If I were her I wouldn't want to see me either. Oh! But that's only if she has a conscious.

Finally....

Can't wait....the girls are coming home tomorrow. So much to do. Emma's birthday is coming up on Monday! She will turn 3 years old. Gosh, my baby girl is getting old. Went shopping today to buy her a present. Boy was that hard to do! She has everything and needs nothing. She already has too many toys and clothes. What to buy? Went to JCPenny's...found her a cute little sundress. Hopefully she will like it!

The call....

So excited.....The girls get to come for a weekend visit. The ex called saying that the girls really missed me and asked if I would like to have them for the weekend. I of course without hesitation answered "Heck yeah!" Although 3 weeks of them being there with no phone call, no text, no email, no responses to all of the above. Even though, I was still glad for the phone call. I was so happy to hear Taylor's voice that I couldn't speak. I just cried. She kept asking "Mommy, when are we coming home?" Over and over. It's hard to tell her that she has to stay with her daddy all month. She doesn't understand. All in all the girls are coming home tomorrow!!!!

4th Trip...

4th and final trip to the doctor I hope! Good news! My ear after a week of pain and agony is finally showing signs of improvement. Ear wick can be removed. 10 more days of antibiotics and my ear should be back to normal they say. Ear drops every two hours and antibiotics until done. Let's hope this does the trick! This ear has cost me over $200 this week. Can't take much more.

3rd Trip...

Well....once again. The doctor is not impressed with the progress of my left ear infection. Still not any better. Got another shot of Rocephin in the bum and an ear wick placed in my left ear. As that appears not to be enough...3 more prescriptions. Another antibiotic and ear drops. So now I have two of each plus one for the pain. Wishing this ear would get better and I can begin to hear again!! We will see if this regime works!

Sick in bed....

Well, I woke up with a painful left ear so I decided to bite the bullet and go to the doctor. Called and made an appointment to find out that my left ear canal and ear drum are very swollen, red, and infected. Got my 2 prescriptions and went home. Couldn't sleep! The pain was getting worse. So I decided to go back to the doctor's the next day....glad I did! My ear had gotten worse overnight and was on the verge of rupturing. 3 new prescriptions later and a shot of rocephin here we sit. It has been 4 days now. 3 boring days of being in the bed and watching television. I am going to go out of my mind! Today the pain isn't as bad but I still have no hearing...I guess we will see what the doctor has to say tomorrow!

One whole month....

One whole month without my girls! I have no idea what I am going to do....This is the 1st time for my ex husband to take them for so long! No phone call. No text. No email. I have tried everything with no response! What in the world is he thinking?

Now I am mobile! So I can keep my blog up to date even when I am away from home or my computer! This is so COOL!

Up, up, and away!!

Hmm....well today I had a good time. I have all 4 kids for the weekend and what to do?? A movie? Go to the city pool? Gatti's? The dinosaur park? What else in Huntsville is there to do? So Taylor, Emma, Kaylee, William and I went to see the movie UP here at the theater. It was a good movie. I was really proud of the kids. They were great. Although, 15 minutes into the movie I wanted to cry! Haha. I'm a sap!! Yes! I admit it! 45 minutes in, Emma was asleep in my lap. The poor thing doesn't weigh enough to keep the seat folded down. She kept folding up like a taco. It was quite hilarious but yet very frustrating for her. So into my lap she went. All in all, a very satisfying cinematic adventure. I made it with a 9 yr old, an almost 6 yr old, an almost 5 yr old, and an almost 3 yr old. I am so stoked. I usually have a hard enough time with just my two girls. Is this a sign that they are growing up? Oh no! What am I going to do then?
