I hope everyone had a great Christmas this year. This was the first year we haven't had any snow on the ground! Kinda crazy. We had a very busy weekend which included 4 Christmas celebrations. Little monster didn't get very long naps either day and was very crabby by the end of the day. She got about 5 new baby dolls and tons of other fun toys to play with. On Monday we spent the day organizing toys and cleaning the house. After all that I got to leave monster will the husband and go grocery shopping all by myself!
We are still trying to get pregnant. I have been taking ovulation tests Tuesday for more than a month and I'm not ovulating at all. I'm not getting my period either. Really not sure what's up with all that. Monster has her 2 year check up tomorrow afternoon so I plan on asking our dr about it then. Hopefully she will be able to help me out little.
If I don't get pregnant in the next couple weeks I'm having surgery on Jan. 13th the remove the sores on my thighs. This will be 1 of at least 4 surgeries to come in my future. I'm ready for this issue to be gone.
I will try to get on the computer later to get some pictures up!
(Sorry if I have a lot of spelling mistakes. I'm doing this on my phone)

We've Been Busy
Wow it has been a really, really long time since I've written anything here. So here's a little update on our life. Husband is doing really well. He is on a decent medication without millions of crazy side effects. He is doing really well. The little Monster is growing like a weed and is almost 2!! Her birthday party is next weekend, Minnie Mouse themed. She is getting pictures done this Saturday. No idea what she's going to wear yet. Hopefully I can actually get Christmas cards sent out this year!
We are doing pretty good over all. The husband and I are trying to get pregnant. We are going on month 3 of trying and no luck so far. The Monster was an oops, so this whole "trying" thing is new to us. Hoping for it to happen soon. We would love for our kids to be about 3 years apart.
I'm going to try really hard to start blogging regularly. I really like doing it, I just forget about it sometimes. Oh well. What can ya do?
Anyways, that's about all I have for right now...

Going insane!
Ok so it's been awhile again. Things have been going really well around here. Husband and I Are getting along for the most part. S is fighting some sort of viral infection. Not totally sure what's going on with that.
Daycare is going Ok. I had a 4 year old and an 11 year old start this month. The older one never. stops. talking. He drives me nuts. The other thing that drives me nuts is when parents don't call me when their children aren't coming for the day. Especially when mom just told me yesterday they would be here today and now they haven't shown up or called. Ugh.
Sorry if there are a lot of typos in this post. I got this thing called a smartphone so I'm posting from that because my laptop isn't very portable anymore. The battery won't hold a charge for longer than 30 seconds. So Yeah I am learning all about my smartphone and finding it can do lots of cool things. The battery life on it should be longer though because I use it so much I end up charging it all night and half way through the day. Anyways.
My dad got married almost 2 weeks ago. It was a great day and everyone had a lot of fun. Hmmm what else has been going on around here? Oh yeah my grandparents were up from Florida and got to meet Savannah for the very first time. They loved playing with her and she had fun with them also. We miss them very much and hope to go visit them sometime this winter if it all works out.
I think that's about all I got for right now.

Is it ever going to cool down?
Ugh I'm SO sick of this heat and humidity!! Tonight S and I are going to the water park in Owatonna to cool down!
Surgery last week went well. My wound is healing really well on its own like it's supposed to.
Corey and I have been getting along for the most part. He is still stressed about us having debt (not very much). But at this point I don't feel like it's a huge concern. So we basically agree to disagree and I'm working on getting everything paid off as soon as possible. He's been in a fairly good mood lately too. We had the never-ending argument about how since he works out of the home he shouldn't have to do any housework because I work at home. Well sorry buddy, but that's not how things work around here! I can't take care of S, do all the cooking, cleaning, shopping, laundry, bill paying all the time by myself. I can't even rely on him to take care of S, ever. It's gotten a little ridiculous. We also disagree on all this and I have no idea how to get it through to him that I don't like being a single parent. If that's what I wanted I would have never gotten married to him! I'm not his maid, I shouldn't have to clean up after him. If he wants his laundry washed and dried he can throw it down the laundry shoot. That's right, we have a laundry shoot. Where do his dirty clothes end up? On the living room floor. After he has cereal every morning and spills milk all over the counter he can wipe it up! Ugh drives me freaking nuts!
Anyways, we also fought about going to counseling. Insurance isn't covering it because its considered a pre-existing condition since he was diagnosed as bi-polar before we started this insurance. Since they're not covering, Corey says we can't go because he doesn't want to pay for it. Ugh...if we don't go our marriage issues will never be resolved because he won't tell me what's going on!
Oh well. I guess we'll figure something out. Eventually.
Ohmygosh! Biggest news ever, my dad is getting married on July 30th 2011!!!! I am SO excited for him and his soon-to-be-wife! I will have 2 step-sisters and 2 step-brothers and 1 nephew and 1 on the way and 2 nieces!!! I'm so happy for my dad!

Holiday Weekend
It's been a few days since I have posted anything. We've actually been a little busy. Sunday the Husband and I talked a little and he did end up going to the parade with S and me. S got scared of the marching band so I gave her part of a Tootsie Roll and what do ya know? She gagged on it and threw up. all. over. me. No lie. All. Over. Me. We watched 20 minutes of the parade and then had to leave so S and I could go home and shower! Anyways... after we got all cleaned up we went out to the cabin. That was nice. Except all the mosquitoes! They were horrible. So we spent a majority of the night on the pontoon. Husband and I got along. For the most part. We brought S's pack n play but of course she wouldn't sleep in it.
Monday I went to BP and got my tattoo touched up by Katie while Husband and S took a nap. When I got home we just hung out for a while and ended up at bil's house for a fire and a few drinks later in the night. Nope, we didn't go to fire works. We wanted to just stick close to home for the night.
Husband and I have been getting along pretty well since Monday. Hopefully things continue this way. If not, I will cry! Like always. I guess there isn't much else to report tonight, just wanted to give a little update on the weekend.
Oh yeah, went to the doctor on Tuesday. Was told I'm having minor surgery next Thursday to have the core of a sore removed in my arm. It's about damn time the do something about this. It's only been a problem for 10 years!!! So yeah next week might not have many updates! Sorry.

Tired.
I'm tired. Tired of doing everything alone. Tired of raising my (our?) daughter alone. Tired of being alone. Tired of going places alone. Tired of doing everything around the house alone.
Why?
Because my husband is bi-polar. My husband is bi-polar and sleeps all day long and is awake all night. He doesn't wake up to spend time with S or me. He sleeps and sleeps and sleeps and goes to work. When he's not at work he is sleeping. Hmmm and he wonders why I'm being a bitch to him. I don't know what to do. I'm so frustrated. I'm so alone. I need a weekend away. Far, far away. Is that possible? Probably not. So for now I guess S and I will go to the parade tonight and attempt to have fun. Alone.

18 Month Check-Up and ER Visit
Well, S had her 18 month check-up on Monday. She had been running a fever since Sunday night so she didn't get her shots. The Dr thought the fever was from teething or a virus. S is growing like she should, and doing all the things she should be doing so the Dr was very pleased!
On Tuesday S still had a fever and hadn't been drinking or peeing very much. I took her into Urgent Care to have her checked out again. No ear infection. No strep. Hmmm. So Dr in UC said to give her anti-nausea pills and wait 2 hours, if she doesn't drink or pee in 2 hours take her to the ER for fluids if she needs them. 2 hours later we were sitting in the ER. They took blood, got a urine sample with a catheter that she HATED, and strapped her into this crazy machine to take chest x-rays. We waited around the ER for 2.5 hours and found out S has a UTI. Poor baby girl :( Got her on some good anti-biotics and today she is already doing better! She has been drinking and peeing and has actually been happy and playing! Yay!
Husband is doing well also. He decided to start taking his Wellbutrin that the Dr prescribed him a couple weeks ago and it seems like its helping. He was in a pretty good mood today! The city people came by the house today to dig up our front yard to find our main water shut off. I now have a 4 foot hole in my front yard...yay! Hopefully no one falls in it. Ha!
