Well, it’s Sunday night at 7:45pm and I’m looking at a ton of random photos from both mine and Jon’s phone…… These pictures sort of highlight the past few days of our family, both here at home and at the hospital.<\/p>\n

Seeing as I’ve managed to get the 3 kids that I have at home down, I thought I might try to throw them up into a post along with some of my random “brain thingys……”<\/p>\n

This was Jon’s chair bed……..and then he got upgraded to a cot, but it was horrid…all lumpy and wires and bars sticking up and out and totally uncomfortable…..<\/p>\n

\"Bed\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

This is actually the lumpy nasty bed………..<\/p>\n

\"photo[4]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

He then took a few test rides on some of the cots in the empty rooms on the floor that Geli is on and ended up with a deluxe bed…….that pretty much looks exactly the same as the picture above. In fact, you’d never be able to tell the difference. And this is where you all start with the “Princess and the Pea” jokes for him right about now…….Ha Ha HA!<\/p>\n

It’s amazing how the dynamic in the house changes when you add or subtract people and right now, we are 3 people short over here and Xandra and Jeremy actually “played nicely” on Saturday morning. Here is the Lego maze that they created. It was supposed to be a game board…..Not sure if they actually played a game or not?<\/p>\n

\"photo[13]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

We went for a walk on Saturday afternoon. Like I mentioned earlier, Siah’s been staying at my mom’s because he’s been a coughing, snotting, germy mess…..He’s missing us and I’m missing him dearly and so my mom suggested that we go for a walk and hopefully with all the fresh air, we wouldn’t pass the germs around.<\/p>\n

What??????? Don’t you take your Lego robots for walks with you? <\/p>\n

While we were playing and walking and doing a bunch of other boring stuff, Jon and Angelica slept in FOREVER and then they had some DELICIOUS hospital breakfast…….<\/p>\n

\"photo[5]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Later, they got in a little exercise……you can see that she’s really going fast…look at the blur that should be her legs…<\/p>\n

\"photo[26]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

After a little clean up (cause riding a bike can be sweaty, sweaty work) they headed down to the kitchen to play some Monopoly. Geli must not be feeling a hundred percent because Jon KICKED HER BUTT! Like really, REALLY badly, and she ALWAYS wins! So Weird!<\/p>\n

\"photo[27]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, we walked and walked and walked and walked…..you know, the whole theory that if you tire the kids out, then maybe they’ll sleep really good….ya doesn’t always work for my kids. SUCKS! Along the way, my strange kids were kinda creeped out by these Alien Pods – but I have no idea where they got that idea from….none at all!<\/p>\n

\"photo[1]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

But, we finally made it to the park….<\/p>\n

\"photo[15]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

The kids played and climbed and went on the swings and up and down the slides and onto the monkey bars and we only had to yell at them to avoid all the other children a half a dozen times…..by that point, the parents were just high tailin’ it outta there anyway…… (okay, all of that was totally made up…..There were ONLY 4 other pre-teen boys “hanging out” there and they only had the rescue Siah “once” from climbing up the tallest part of the tallest play structure…That child is seriously part goat and the other part is monkey….he’s amazing!<\/em>)<\/p>\n

We managed to deal with Little Master Siah McSnotterson. This way, you only have to deal with the snot once as opposed to blowing his nose a million times, and it totally saves the jacket from needing a wash too. Come on! You parents know what I’m talking about….if there isn’t a kleenex around the slug slime goes from one wrist up to the shoulder on both sides. BLECH! I’m shuddering just thinking about it.<\/p>\n

\"photo[22]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Judah had fallen asleep while we were there, and it was so nice to just sit on the park bench and to not have to “do” anything. After we had been there a while, I loving asked Josiah, in the softest most gentle voice that I own to not do something that he was doing…..and Judah woke up. You’d think that it would take something more like a yell or scream to wake that kid up……you might be right? At least he wakes up happy, eh?<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0124\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

As we walked home, the kids all needed to express their inner Jackie Chan by doing “maneuvers” on the fence…This is Jeremy’s best shot of the “Despicably Crouching Tiger” Amazing, isn’t it? Such skill and finesse!<\/p>\n

\"photo[17]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Xandra dropped a mean “Flowering Stork” on us…..<\/p>\n

\"photo[20]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I tried to ask Siah which maneuver he was pulling off and the best I can gather from what he was mumbling behind those trailing kleenex’s was that he was really working on the “Dangling Walrus”. It’s a two person move as you can tell by the picture and my mom very graciously offered to stand in for him.<\/p>\n

\"photo[18]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

These pictures are really just bonus pictures just because I love them and they make me smile……..<\/p>\n

\"photo[11]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

This is a picture from before Geli and Jon went into the hospital, but I’m putting on here anyway. I love that its blurry cause he’s moving so fast, but you can see his two little front teeth sticking out and the nerdly glasses combined with the swooshy hair….this picture is priceless to me!<\/p>\n

\"photo[10]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

This picture CRACKS me up. The look on Geli’s face is amazing. You can almost hear her saying, “Huuuuuh?”<\/p>\n

\"photo[8]\"<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

And in this one it looks like Judah’s trying to figure out who is ‘in” the phone. <\/p>\n

Well, I ate a million gluten free oatmeal cookies with a cup of almond milk and called it dinner….I figure it’s exactly the same as porridge, right? Well if that’s the case, why do I feel SO GROSS! Yuck! Time for a millions cups of water and possibly an early-ish bedtime…..if I’m smart!<\/p>\n

And with that…..I’m off! Hope you’re weekend was a good one! Care to share what the highlight of your weekend was?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
