Easter pictures

-
I know I'm late on this. There's been a lot going on around here and I've been busy, busy with work. I guess late is better than never.

Saturday Alana and I colored eggs. Well, Alana colored her hand and I colored eggs.




Easter Day!

The girls woke up Easter morning, and it seemed that Ariana found her basket right way. She had all types of goodies, like a microphone, ladybug car, pin wheel candies...etc.

Alana on the other hand walked past her basket on several occasions as signified by the first shot. We played an uneventful version of HOT AND COLD and after about 15 minutes and a lot of help she finally found it. And BOY was it worth the wait.

Yep, Alana got that fishing pole that she has been begging for months for. It's not like we are going to actually go fishing with it. She only wants it to go "CAT FISHING" as we call it. Again in the picture above.


The egg hunt was very fast both girls are 'EGGSPERT" egg hunters.

After the hunt Alana put the eggs in side the house on a chair as instructed. We left the door open so Ariana could come back out to join us while cat fishing if she wanted. After not hearing a peep from her for a few minutes I decided I would go and investigate the situation. Right as I came around the corner I saw Ariana with an egg in her hand. It scared her and she dropped it. That's when I saw her dress.........


Caught in the act! Ariana had been eating the Easter eggs! The worst part is that apparently the eggs were SOFT BOILED. Not hard. Egg and blue dye trickling down her dress... before church. I whisked her off to clean her up and throw the dress in the wash in hope that it would be dry before church. Sure enough we got it all out in time for us to leave.

Friday, March 23, 2012   I received a phone call from my oldest daughter Alana's Kindergarten teacher. Mrs Munos was concerned that Alana wasn't acting her bubbly self.  I had noticed that she seemed to have been sleeping a lot and wrote it off to the time change and just getting back from spring break. But now I had a little flag from her teacher.  I began to wonder if there was something wrong with her.  My first thought was depression.  So I sent her out on a Daddy Daughter date with my husband to see if it would boost her spirits. No such luck.  I've never heard of a child being so glum at the Kemah Boardwalk. But in fact, she hardly cracked a smile. Over the weekend Alana seemed to get worse.  She slept for a good part of church on my lap and I really began to worry.  Alana was eating like a teenage boy, drinking a ton of water and using the restroom several times an hour.  My husband, Chris, even thought she might have mono. ...

Hugs Jugs

We D-Mommas are always looking for low carb options for our kids.  While at Kroger yesterday, I felt compelled to check the carb counts on Little Hug Fruit Barrels.   I was very surprised to find that one Hug was only 2 grams of carbs and twenty count box is only $3! I was so excited that I bought two boxes.   When it came time to pick the girls up from school, the excitement was still flowing through my veins.  So I packed a few in my purse to give the girls in the car on the way home.   Results of the taste test were awesome.  Alana loves them.  Not to mention that they made her feel more like a normal kids.  Normal is great in my book.   I'm trilled that I no longer have to by different drinks for all the girls.  The price, taste and nutritional facts make Hugs a winner in our home.

All in the Family?

 This is one of the saddest posts I've had to write in some time... Two weeks ago I got a phone call from my brother in law, Brad.  He started the conversation with a little laugh and "I think your Alana has rubbed off on Reed" I was perplexed.  Oh no.  What did Alana do now?   "It looks like Reed is a type 1 diabetic too" I was floored.  I had just gone to Alana's school to give a talk on T1D, now we have another child in my husband's family who is insulin dependent. (My pancreas prop) Reed and Alana were born a year and two days apart. Reed had to go to the hospital in DKA on his tenth birthday.  It's the worst birthday present EVER!!! I felt hopeless and all I wanted to drop everything and fly out to Utah to help out.  But Alana was turning nine the next day and there was just no way I could make it happen.  So we scheduled to skype that night. While laying in his hospital bed, we talked to him, c...
