It's been a Chaotic Life.....

What has happened to time? I feel like the entire summer flew by and now we're into October and I missed it!! So what has happened in our lives the last 3-4 months? TONS!!! Our summer started with a trip to PA and it ended with a trip to PA :-)....actually it was offically fall when I went to PA the second time....but it still felt like summer there...which was great..except that I in one day, drove from 70's to 40's.....Ella I got some weird looks in the Ohio service plaza's wearing a skirt and short sleeve shirt and Ella in a dress with no sleeves....Anyway it was a great trip....along with the trips we had in between. The trip to California was great too as well as the trip up north with Keith's family....
So what have we been up to since the end of August then?? Well, I totally lost the entire month to a horrendous thing called a Kidney Stone....yes and a big one at that...7 millimeters...had to have a surgury and stent...well the whole process and recovery was about 2 1/2 weeks long...I laid in bed for 2 1/2 weeks...let me tell you...there is only so much of watching tv and reading books I can do before I get a little crazy. Anyway it's over and I had one week to recoup before going out to see my great friend Traci and her new baby for a week in PA....it was suppose to be a 6 day trip ....it ended up being a 7 day trip because we had problems with the van...$600 dollars later and not a fixed vehicle made it a little more frustrating trip than I thought it was going to be...however....the company is working on a reimbursment for us after I reported to corporate about their corrupt store :0)....anyway it was a great trip seeing Traci and Jason and baby Colin....and as a bonus I got to see Grace and Susan and Dany too! Well...now life has returned to as normal as it's going to get for awhile...we are throwing a Golden Birthday for Keith's mom this weekend and the kids currently have Hand Foot and Mouth again so that may be a little tricky .....but we're trying to manage.
Gideon is loving 1st grade still....reading and amazing us more everyday with his learning skills...he reads Dr Suess books to the girls in the evenings...crazy...he's also playing soccer and in God's Club so he's a busy boy
Lucy is currently on a up'd dose of her med's because the neurlogist doesn't think the abnormal brain activity is gone...we are scheduled for a Video EEG in December....this is where we stay in the hospital with her for 3 days and she's hooked to an EEG machine and camera the whole time and we have a button to push when she has "seizure like" episodes...anyway hopefully it will give us the answers we need but in the mean time the medicine is making her into a crazy mean little girl and it's frustrating for me and Keith...our sweet little Lucy is not showing her face very much these days....She's in Preschool and LOVES her class...she also is taking dance class and can't wait to go every week.
Ella is talking a mile a minute and getting a little better with her stubborness but she's still awefully set in her ways and hormonal for a two year old. She is also taking dance class and looks so cute singing baby face and squeezing her cheeks together....
Hope everyone is doing well...Sorry for the long delay in posting.....
