The day phoebe went white and had convulsions

Today phoebe and carter accompanied me on a newborn shoot. We drove 45 minutes to get there and realized while I was trying to buy us lunch that I had forgotten my purse at home. So we went to the photo shoot hungry for lunch, except for some gluten free crackers and applesauce I had brought for carter. About an hour into the shoot phoebe was standing next to me holding a reflector and I looked over at her in time to notice her face was white as a sheet including her lips. She started to fall (faint) and I caught her. I picked her up and she was stiff as a board. Her eyes were open but no one was home. She was making a really scary sound and shaking. I put her down on the carpet and tried to get her coherent.  About a minute later and what seemed like an eternity, she finally came back. She said she was going to throw up, so I picked her back up and ran her to the bathroom. Oh joy. We sat on the bathroom floor in front of the toilet mopping her forehead with a wet cloth. She didn't have a fever. It hit me then that she has the curse of low blood sugar problem that I have and Logan has too.

I asked the people whose house we were at if they would make phoebe a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or maybe they offered. I don't remember. But phoebe sat and ate a sandwich and drank a huge glass of water and was instantly better.

It was very scary. We love our Phoebe-weebie! !

pogo stick

We always have so much fun at my parents house. Logan found my sister's old pogo stick and wanted to try it out. He couldn't even figure out how to get on the thing, so trevor showed him how. Haha! He will kill me for this. On a side note, do you remember pogo balls? I think that's what they were called. I wanted one so badly when I was little.

Tired

We've been gone nearly every weekend for a month. I'm tired. Trevor is tired. No more traveling for a while. We need time with our family at home. Plus, trevor has a zillion projects to work on and they haven't been getting done. These are not honey-dos. I don't have any of those.

Wow. It just hit me that I don't have honey do projects!!! Yay! I never wanted to be a wife like that. Yay!!! Yay!! I do my own honey do projects thankyouverymuch!!

Trevor has two cars he's been working on. One we invested in last Fall to flip, and then his baby the Scrambler needs some repairs.

So anyway, I'm glad to say we will not be taking any trips for a long while. Hopefully.

Plus, you know it's really annoying to be away from home and try to potty train. I stopped trying after the first time. And regression is frustrating.

She Made It!

We got a letter in the mail over the weekend telling us that phoebe made it into Logan's school (the charter school)! We are thrilled and excited. Phoebe is excited too. I am feeling a bit sad to think that she will be gone all day instead of half a day, but I know it will be good for Phoebe. Now we just need to get Samantha over there and life will become instantly easier. Except maybe we won't.  I just can't decide. I think It's good for Sami to be by herself.  Thoughts?
We also started watering the grass last week. Oh Spring is here and there is no turning back!

She's the Best!

I've said it before and I'll say it again.  Kelly Clarkson has the most amazing voice! Have you heard her latest duet with Josh Groban?
