We had a scare this weekend.

Little Savannah hit her head on the bathtub after she announced she had to go potty she started running down the hallway and tripped on the bath rug. It seems when she gets hit hard like this she has the tendency to not breathe when she cries. Usually she just holds her breath instead of screaming and one time she had passed out because of it. Not this time though. This time her body went completely stiff and she wasn't breathing at all and was unconscious. What seemed like forever she finally started to come to but her body was convulsing into a seizure. Of course when the ambulance arrived she was doing much better and seemed to be okay but we weren't taking a chance. I rode with her to the hospital just in case anything else were to happen they could maintain it and they kept her in a neck brace and stretcher to make sure she didn't hurt her spine. She slept the whole way there as well as on the way home it really took the life out of her. The CT scan and x-rays turned out okay but I don't think we will ever get over this and we have made an appointment with her pediatrician to get a referral to see a specialist.

I don't know what I would do if I ever lost my little girl. She has become a large light in my life since she was born. I stayed home with her yesterday and made quality time with her and cherished every moment of it. I try not to take life for granted sometimes but it can happen, so we spent the day hanging out together doing mommy-daughter stuff. We painted each other's nails, played her Dora video game, watched home movies of her when she was a baby, did puzzles, and made cupcakes. My heart just breaks thinking of the thought of her little spirit being gone again, even if it is for one second.

Good news.

I lost the 1.6 lbs gained from vacation. Wahoo!

It's Wednesday!

Finally, some slowing down at work. I am thinking this would have been the better time to have taken a vacation. Now we just need to plan next year's family trip!

I think I'm finally starting to feel normal again at home. At first when we got back, I was antsy to not be there, but now I enjoy it again. We had some friends over for a BBQ on Saturday and it was nice to not worry about if the kids got out of the yard. I love our fence! I also had them bring their dog to play with ours, however it is a mastiff so I think we're a little premature in thinking Bear is big enough to play back. We also found a great patio set on sale at 1/2 off and now I can say I feel like I have a real back yard now.

This weekend we are finally seeing Harry Potter and going out to celebrate my recent salary increase I got at work. (I know, anything to make an excuse to dine out and have a drink.) Jacob finally got to see Simpson's last weekend, so at last, no more nagging. Eh, I'll wait to rent it.

And of course I gained about a pound and a half over vacation and have been worried that our WW at work meeting wouldn't start up without enough people to sign up but thankfully we are okay. I know if I hadn't this meeting at work, my chances are slim to none for going to them outside of work which would result in going back to old habits. To me that would be one more errand or chore that I don't want. You figure I leave the house at 6:30 in the morning and don't get back until about 5:30, depending on how long I visit with the sitter, so my week is shot for any extracurricular activities outside of doing dinner, dishes, bathing, and reading Savannah a book before I hit the sack. Saturdays are errand running days and chore days. Sunday is our only day to relax.

Anyway, enough of me rambling. I hope you all enjoy the slide show of our pics from vacation, I know I do!
