Happy Valentines Day!

I have to say that Valentines Day was the best day! Jackie had a blast at her school party. I took her to chick fil a for lunch , and we had a blast. Willie really digs that play place too! Then Will came home with the most beautiful flowers! To top it off the family got together at the best Japenese Steak houses in Gainesville! Way yummy, and boy were we all full. Then we got home and put everyone to sleep. It was a great valentines day. BUT Then....




Happy Valentines Day everyone!

Jackie,,happy to get some treats!

Half the family..

Sisters

I think we look so cute !

My Mommy and Daddy.

My sweet family of four!


Jackie woke up around mid night , came into our room. She had tinkled her pants, which she doesnt do. Then i picked her up and she was on fire! I couldnt believe it. She was at 104'. I gave her some motrin, and cold compresses! She tried to sleep in bed with us, but she just tossed and turned. I gave her some Tylenol, and man that just wanst working. I couldnt believe that my baby girl, the HEALTY one, was getting so sick. 6 hours later , after going up and town from 103 to 104, my thermometer read 105.1. That was it for me, off to the ER we went. I tell you, its to hard to stay strong. I havent had a healthy house since Christmas. I dont think i can take much more. I have been to the ER and Hospital way way way to much these past few weeks. So we get to the ER , my little girl was awesome. She didnt flinch when the took blood or gave her an IV. She said, Mommy, I am brave, I dont need to cry. Man she was a rock star! Turns out she has a UTI.. UHHHHH. We went for a check up Saturday morning. She was a new kid, no fever, and full of energy. Still pail but so happy. At that point, I thought, Will and I could go on our date night. So my aunt came over , but before she Jackie Rose started to have a fever again. So I was tempeted to back out again, but I gave her her meds and we went. Will and I just needed to step away for a bit. It was nice. We got home and Jr didnt have a fever, but I gave her some meds anyways, just in case. She went to bed , only to wake with a headache and a 102 temp. SHIT,,, I cant take it anymore. I just want to be carefree again. I want to get into my bed and truly sleep, not tossing and turning to every cough i hear or every turn they do. I just want my babies to be healthy. So we went to church today, her fever broke by 7 this morning. She has buggies running out her noise and a cough. But right now she seems ok. But not her spunky self. Willie has his ENT apt. tomorrow. Hopefully we will hear his ears are cleared up, and that we we can get on the road to getting him some tubes! I am just ready to have a healthy house. To be able to plan our weekends. I want to have Willies family 1st birthday party already. Is that to much to ask. We heard from the docts about the mri and the eeg, nothing showed up. So that is great. But now we have to sit and figure out with the neurologist whats really going on. Will and I say its still Febrile seizures! But the neurologist isnt sure. UHHH. So keep your prayers coming. My babies need them, and man Will and I need them. I feel like something is chipping away at my stregnth,, and I am getting weaker by the day! Thats so sad to write but its true. I would much rather be the one laid up sick in the hospital than having my babies go through so much.

Girl, when is it gonna stop?! I know you are being tested to the limits right now, but if anyone is strong enough to handle it, YOU ARE. I'm praying for an extra dose of strength and patience for you today. Call me if you need me!
