School Days....

Yesterday was Olivia's first official full day at school, and she LOVED it. I didn't get to take pictures yesterday morning because we were in high gear all morning. I couldn't get up for some reason yesterday. So, I took some pictures this morning. Besides, she wouldn't have made a very good picture yesterday anyway, because she cried all morning before we left, wanting to stay home. Then, when we pulled up in the parking lot at school, she said "Mom, where's the playground?" I pointed it out to her and she grinned really big and said "I'm so excited!!" Little stinker.. She had me all stressed out about dropping her off and then we pull in the parking lot and she got all excited. She didn't cry when I left either!! Yay!!!! I went and picked her up and she got in the car and said "Mom, I am so happy, I love my teachers!" Yay, go Mrs. Glenda and Mrs. Tina... That made my day!!!! Then, Olivia and I went to Dairy Queen and got an ice cream and came home and she spent the rest of the afternoon playing with her cousin Hayden.. She had a great day yesterday. (Except for falling off the bed last night)This morning, no tears!! Wooo Hoooo.. Although, she got really nervous when we got there and wouldn't let me go. Mrs. Glenda came and got her and she went right to her. Bless it!!!

I hope to have some pictures of her birthday party this weekend and some pictures of our trip to the Aquarium last week. I have been really bad about forgetting my camera lately! We even went to two birthday parties and a family reunion this past weekend and I forgot it both days!! :-( I think my mind is already in my nursing classes!!! Stress is starting to build already!!!!

Slowdown....

I just want to tell everyone now, my posts may start slowing down drastically when school starts back. I start on the 15th (next Thursday) and I do have some rather difficult classes this time. Also, I will be studying for the hesi test that I have to take if February, so my blog life will be taking a back seat for a while... I am not going to quit blogging though. I do have plans for a couple of posts in the near future, I just can't keep up like I am used to when classes start. I just wanted everyone to know why I am suddenly not leaving comments on your blog or not updating as frequently...Please keep me in your prayers as I am studying for this hesi test. This test will determine whether I get into the nursing program or not and I have A LOT of competition.... Just want you all to know what's going on with me when my blog is not being updated that much.... Love ya friends.......

Please keep our "Little Livie" in your prayers.....

Today we will be leaving at 5:00 a.m. to head to Knoxville for a round of tests.. Olivia has to have surgery on May 12th for a branchial cleft anomaly on her chest and just above her ear. I am dreading it... I am trying to act like it is no big deal to appear strong for her, but I am scared to death!!! Today we have to go and have a fistulagram and a renal ultrasound done... The fistulagram involves shooting dye through the little holes (sinus cavities that didn't fully develop) to see where they go so the surgeons know all details before the actual surgery begins.... The renal ultrasound is to check her kidney function because sometimes when kids have these anomalies, kidney problems are also involved!! Let's pray we don't have that problem... Like I said, I am scared to death!! But, the kidney ultrasound will relieve my worries of the China Milk scandal where a bunch of kids adopted from China have been found to have kidney issues from tampered milk... (If you don't k...

"Pray to Jesus"....

Image
So the past few weeks, Jason and I have decided to try to get in the habit of saying a prayer before we all eat dinner at night. I'll admit, this is one habit Jason and I never did that we should have already been doing. Anyway, at night I will say "Oh, we need to say our prayers." Olivia just loves it. Everyone at the table ends up saying a prayer (at Olivia's request). But I just had to post, every one of her prayers start with "Pray to Jesus".. EVERY ONE! And if we forget to say them, (yes, we forget) she says "We need to pray to Jesus!" It is the sweetest thing ever! She always makes us close our eyes and cross our fingers together. So tonight, I'll admit, I peeked to see what kind of face she was making during these prayers, and it was the cutest thing ever... So, I got up and got the camera ~ and then got in trouble!! Hehe.... :-) Our baby is growing up!!! AMEN!!!!!!!!
