The day before...

What happens when your child comes home and tells you that they need a chipmunk costume for their school play dress rehearsal TOMORROW??!

 Well...it's nothing this Supermom can't handle. With a little hot glue, cardboard, headband, cotton balls, duct tape and an old Brownie Girl Scout dress! One chipmunk costume ready for tomorrow.

Let's just hope that my kiddos don't make a habit out of waiting until the last minute for things like this.

I'm tired now...

"I can do it myself, Mommy."

The one sentence that can break a Mommy's heart instantly!   Lately my 6 year old has been branching out and testing her independence.    This morning while getting ready for school I went and got all the stuff to do her hair and sat down, she looks at me and says, "I don't need that, I can do it myself!".  Umm, I always do her hair in the morning, it's my thing....how dare she try and do it herself! My heart was slightly broken, but I let her do her own hair, she did a pretty good job too. I was proud of her for that, but deep down, I was a little upset, it is one less thing that I am needed for.     A little while later after getting to the school, we got out of the car and I was going to walk into the office to get my sticker to enter the building when she says, "I can walk myself to class today, Mommy." Just then I felt like I had been punched in the gut......it is one thing to do her own hair, but walking herself to class....there has to be a ...

Post Hysterectomy Recovery and thoughts.

Hello everyone! I am happy to be on the other side of this surgery!  My surgery was on February 25th, 2015, so I am now 2 weeks + Post-op, and for the most part I feel pretty good! I will take you through my surgery and recovery so far. The morning of my surgery was interesting, I really thought that I would be a nervous wreck, but I wasn't.  I am not sure if it was due to lack of sleep the night before, or that I had finally made peace with my decision, but I felt pretty confident that morning. My husband and I woke up at 4 a.m. and I had to scrub with Antibacterial soap before heading to the hospital.  Once there, I was signed in, given 3 arm bands and assigned a nurse who did my prep. She was very nice and informative about how the morning would go and what I could expect. I get some really fancy compression stockings and they also put some other things on my legs that simulates movement to keep my blood flowing and avoid clots. She started my IV and gave me s...

Hysterectomy 4 weeks later-An update

Hi everyone! I just wanted to write a little about my recovery since my 2 week post-op entry. Let's see, I am able to move around a lot better now and I tend to forget that there are still restrictions I have to follow. Boy is it difficult to look around the house and see so many things that need to be done and being unable to do them!  I am back to driving again, thank goodness! My kids are super excited to have Mommy able to drive them back and forth to school again, I definitely missed that also.  I have started to test my limits a little, doctors orders, and am able to do a few things around the house. I still have a little belly, I look like I am few months pregnant, ironic, I know, but I am told that will gradually go away throughout the recovery process. My incisions look pretty good, they are starting to not look as noticeable, so that is good. I am really happy so far with how my recovery is going. I do still get frustrated at times, with myself. I hear other wome...
