Weekly grocery haul - Lots of different stores this week

This week was a wild one.  Son got Strep throat for the first time in his 10 years of life.  He wasn't a happy camper.  So basically Tuesday we had our last homestudy visit before our homestudy is written.  About an hour later we went to grab some food and K said his throat was hurting.  As the night went on it was only getting worst.  He tried to sleep but he was struggling with that and told me he needed to go to the ER.  I calmed him down finally about 2 AM.  I was online seeing if we had a walk in open for him and found nothing.  I knew it wasn't ER important.  Finally got him to sleep around 3 AM and I laid with him.  Waking up every hour checking on him.  At 8 I was up and calling the ped's office to get him in.  Yup, what I thought it was.  STREP THROAT!  Got him on medicine ASAP and loaded up on soft foods and drinks. 

 

As you can see in the first photo there are LOTS of soft types of foods.  Think we only got 2 things in this first haul that actually goes with meals on the weekly menu.

So Wednesday and Thursday when K didn't feel like eating much hubs and I just ate subs and salads.

Friday we went to Disney so we ate in Orlando.  - 21 burgers and K was feeling much better and apparently very hungry for burgers as he downed the whole burger and fries.  That's odd for him we almost always need to take the rest to go.  Maybe the burgers we're just AMAZING.

Ponce 6 Months....a little late

Ponce Sebastian

6 Months old

September 25th 2011

Only breed Issue at the moment is a Cherry eye which is easy to massage back in.  However he's so playful it pops out all the time.  Are we going to stitch it in NO have heard from so many who have had it done and they don't work for long.  it's not bothering him or us so why put him through that.  Also our vet said because he is young as his eyes grow it may even just pop back in (Writing this almost near his 8th Month it's already smaller).  At the point it causes Issues we will talk about having the 3rd lid removed with saving the duct with worst case is removing it and putting in daily drops.

Has a little Mohawk on the top of his head.

Thanksgiving 2010

At our house it's just the 3 of us since we live across the country from our family. As you can see we still have the whole makings of a thanksgiving dinner. Yes we end us having leftovers for a while.

This year we started a new Thanksgiving tradition of going around the table saying what we're thankful for. A few of things K said he was thankful for.

I'm thankful for mama and daddy
I'm thankful for our food
I'm thankful for papa and grandma's
I'm thankful for my toys
I'm thankful for hugs and kisses <--this one touched me a little more then some of the others just thinking of the kids who have never shared a hug with mom/dad

just a few of the things that K shared with us as K had so much fun with us going around the table saying what we are thankful it lasted nearly the whole meal time between bites.

Right after dinner the hubs jetted off to toysrus to grab some gifts for K. He stood in line for 4 hours before they opened but he got everything plus some and was home before midnight. As hubs went out I stayed home with K and watched Charlie and the chocolate factory and had pie :o)

Happy Thanksgiving
