How to KNOW You've Had an Eventful Day

This week I started pondering....what does an eventful day really look like? As I processed through how one would determine what constitutes an eventful day, I decided it all lies in the amount of outfits one would wear in a day. The more outfits would seem to mean the more events.

Join me now on a recap of my journey of outfits on this day, April 16, 2009:

1. 8:30am - outfit #1 - thought to be the only outfit for the day
2. 12pm - outfit #2 - change needed due to Tyler rubbing his pizza face all over my pants
3. 2:30 pm - outfit #3 - change needed due to Kenna's poo pants leaking on my leg at dr. visit #3 of the week
4. 2:45pm - outfit #4 - change needed due to Kenna's projectile vomit after getting back in the car to head for IV fluids
5. 6pm - outfit #5 - change needed due to blood stain on left leg from IV spray and poo stain #2 on right leg from poo leak #2 of the day
6. 8pm - TIME FOR JAMMIES....I don't have anymore clean clothes and I'm plum tuckered out!

It's official....this WAS an EVENTFUL day!


Here's Miss Makenna. She is the one that has really had the eventful day/week. She has been sick with a kidney infection that has been kicking her butt. We finally went in for IV drips and IV meds today. She is now in the vertical position instead of horizontal which is a great improvement. We hope to see continued improvement tomorrow. Her IV remains in her arm until tomorrow (as seen above), when they will evaluate her condition and determine if we're all clear!

Spring - Has It Sprung?


This year, more than most, it seems as though Spring it taking a REALLY LONG TIME to get here. The blizzards keep coming, the cold lingers on, and our energy level is sluggish. But, alas, the flowers are peeking up from under the ground, the grass is beginning to turn green and today - the sun is shining!!! Could it be true...has spring, sprung?

With spring, comes the excitement of the celebration of Easter. The ultimate celebration. The reason we have hope. The celebration of Christ's ultimate sacrafice, and rising from the grave - for us. I am truly amazed of His love and provision for us - daily. An unimginable blessing that pours out in my life over and over day after day.

We were grateful to share in Easter blessings with my family this weekend - and of course - we hunted for Easter Eggs - 2 times! Fun abound! Here's the recap:
