HAPPY 68TH BIRTHDAY DAD...YOU'RE THE BEST DAD EVER AND GRANDPA AND WE LOVE YOU Sooooooooooo much!!
HAVING FUN WITH GRANDPA, TARGET SHOOTING IN THE DESERT.
GRANDPA AND KYLIE OUT IN THE DESERT IN ST. GEORGE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.What are we going to do with that girl...today we got a call from her jr. high. It was the resource officer calling and I thought...My sweet Jordyn is in trouble??? See I'm used to phone calls for Ty, but never for Jordyn. But he was actually calling because she dislocated her knee again, right in the class room. All she was doing was hopping up on a stool. So we hurried over there and she was freaking out, it was still dislocated. She was shaking so hard that, I thought she was going to hyperventalate. We calmed her down and talked her into pulling her kneecap back on. Since I've had my knee dislocated, I totally know how bad it hurts and how she feels. But I also know that the longer the kneecap is off, the more rehab you need. When I dislocated mine, I was on crutches for 6 weeks, because me kneecap was off for at least an hour. Anyway, we took her up to the doctor, luckily we got her right in to a specialist. He said she has to wear a full knee immobilizer for 3 weeks, then a smaller one for 6 weeks. He wants to do surgery if it does it again. The surgery would only be kind-of a 1/2 surgery to tighten the side-to-side muscles. Or we can wait it out for 18 months until she's done growing to do the up and down muscles too. I don't know what we're going to do. Poor Girl
After a very long day Monday...I thought I would tuck myself into bed and watch a little T.V....silly me.
Jordyn comes upstairs and said
"Hey Mom, do you want to come and help us clean up the water in the bathroom downstairs?"
What water? I say "Oh, Tyler "FORGOT" that he left the water on in the sink and it flooded all over the floor."
He says it was only on for about 20 minutes, but I don't know about that, it took about 10 towels, and my hoover water vac to suck it all up.
The drawers were filled with water and the stuff under the sink was all soaked. I amazed myself how calm I was...sometimes I think I do better with the bigger catastrophes.
Tyler's new nickname is "NOAH" Oh, and I'm glad he didn't "FORGET" and leave the water on before leaving the house for the Easter weekend. By the way, how come Mike is always at work when things happen???
Wow, that was a crazy... windy trip to St. George! The wind tossed our van around like a toy.
The wind was blowing from the south and west, so we got super crappy gas mileage, and our lungs are full of dust...
now I know why in Arab lands, they wear their clothing over their faces. Then in a mountain pass just before Fillmore, we hit a huge bizzare blizzard that only lasted a few minutes.
And Kylie only asked "are we there yet" 37 times.
We're happy to be here
