A little R&R

We are falling into a routine around the house. Spending the day making sure Johnny is OK. He must be, from the loud, demanding, grunting sounds coming from the kitchen. He's back to eating Cheetos, so I am guessing his throat hurts less today.

I have seen ever episode of Sponge Bob ever made (even the new ones this week)... I am dreaming of a day soon when I will get to leave the house.

It is time to get ourselves ready for the weekend of my daughter's annual summer trek to Amarillo. I know how much she misses everybody there so I am looking at the bright side! It is hard to have her so far away but she gets to spend some quality uninterrupted time with her family.

I will post some pics soon. I have to write some thank you cards and I have a crazy to-do list of things to finish before I go search for employment.

Johnny and his helper Meghan are doing well after the surgery

I can't believe how well Johnny is recovering from having tonsils and adnoids removed on Tuesday. He had a rough week but he feels well enough to go without pain meds and he is sleeping in his own bed tonight. At first we let him sleep on a matteress in the living room while one of us slept near him just in case he woke up at night.

We are so lucky that it has all gone well. His tonsils were both larger than a quater (we have a picture!) and his upper sinus' were 100% blocked by the adnoids, also extremely large. The swelling is going down and we hope he will be able to breath better now.

As soon as we are all healthy, We hope to go to the pool soon. Maybe even have play dates....

Johnny is missing his friend Hannah this week;

Even with their allergies the kids love outside!

A picnic in the living room to escape the heat!The school made so many awesome gifts for kids to give us.
