Busy Week

Last week David had a three day work week and this week he only has a three day work week. It has been really nice having him home so much and being able to do so many activities together as a family. Friday we went and picked Shadow up. We got home late Friday evening so when we got home the girls went right to bed. Saturday we had a picnic at the beach and then we went and watched "Coraline". I was disappointed with the movie. There was some partial nudity and some language that I don't approve of. Sunday we got up early and drove to Anaheim to Connie and Terry's house. We had yummy breakfast burritos that Wendy made. We watched conference with the Andersen's. For lunch we had sandwiches, chips & dip and lots of yummy veggies and cheese. After conference we had yummy fruit cobbler that Aunt Connie made. Tammy came for the second session of conference. It was a very good day, both the girls were very good and they paid attention some of the time. It was nice to spend the day with the Andersen's. Monday Christy, Shadow and I all had dentists appointments. We each had x-rays and a cleaning done. I was not very impressed with the dentist it's a good thing that we were only going for a cleaning. We went swimming in the afternoon. And after dinner we had family home evening. Tuesday we went swimming, the girls played and Christy had her counseling appointment. I picked up Davids uniforms that I ordered two weeks ago. Of course it wasn't as easy as just going to pick them up. The name tapes that were ordered were not ready so I ran home and dug around and found two name tapes that I thought would work. Come to find out the name tape that I had them put on his coveralls is actually a name tape for the back of the utility pants. And the coveralls are the wrong size. I told David that from now on I am not taking care of his uniforms, he can do it! I was too stressed out after all that. Last night Christy had some green eye boogers and said that her eye felt puffy and itched. This morning she said her ear hurt and their was eye gunk in both of her eyes. I called her pediatrician and they couldn't see her till 6:40pm. I gave Christy some cold and allergy medicine and some childrens Tylenol. She went up to her bed and laid down and was crying. I felt so bad for her. Christy hardly ever gets sick. I decided that we were not going to wait until this evening for an appointment so we went to Balboa ER. We were in and out of the ER in an hour, that's a record for Balboa. Then we had to wait a half hour to get her prescriptions. Poor Christy has pink eye and an ear infection. She has three different meds that she has to take. Her poor little eye is all pink and puffy. At least she feels better now. No more swimming! The girls are getting along so much better. Today they both helped put laundry away without complaining. Tomorrow we are off to Disneyland, Friday we are going to Legoland, Saturday we are celebrating Easter with the girls and driving to Vegas. Sunday Christy has a flight to Salt Lake. She will be spending the week with Grandma Cosgrove. Then next week I will be in St. George for a few days and then I am planning on spending a few days in Overton after I pick up Christy next Saturday. David will be out on work ups for the better part of the next two weeks. I am glad that we are having all this time together before David leaving again.
