Update...

Well no surgery for Fin today. All day yesterday he was totally fine and ate good and never threw up. Last night when he woke up at about 11:45 he was screaming his head off like something hurt really bad. He just kept screaming for at least 45 minutes, maybe more and there was nothing we could do to make him stop. Finally he started to nurse and then a couple minutes later threw up everywhere. Then did it again when he woke up at 3:15 am. Wow, so not much sleep for me last night and I'm really tired!!
We have gone threw the state of Colorado and are getting a speech thearpist for Eliott. She comes to our house once a week for an hour and works with him and she is so good with Eliott and has gotten him to say soooo much!! It's awesome how much he says now but he still has a long way to go to stop the whining and crying that he does. He'll now say "up" when he wants us to pick him up or when we're sitting down and he wants us to get up while pushing us. He says milk, more, dog, cat, you know all the generic easy things and just said for the first time yesterday Phoebe. It's so cute to finally hear him say her name. Two weeks ago he told Denzil for the first time "I love you" and that awesome to hear him say that. He's been saying "I want that" also. He's doing great. The speech thearpist said he wasn't saying anything because he's a perfectionist and wants to say everything just perfect...WOW-he is just like his father!! But there's absolutely nothing wrong with that!

Fin's surgery

Well on Sunday Fin got the same bug as Eliott and was throwing up. Projectile, out of his nose and everything...it was nasty. That's one thing I've never had to deal with is a throwing up baby. I took him to the doctor on Monday morning and they just pretty much said the "it's a virus, let it run it's course" talk.
I was afraid he wasn't going to be able to have his surgery tomorrow but turns out he was much better today. So the surgery is a go ahead for tomorrow morning...please pray that the surgery goes great and it's quick and painless.
I'll update tomorrow-

Our trip to Oklahoma

I've got an ongoing blog that I've not yet posted because it's not done yet but it will come soon...along with pics and everything!!

Last week we all came to Oklahoma and had a good trip for half of the week but it went way down hill. We arrived on Sunday night at 1 am. Denzil worked all week but the kids and I spent Monday with Grammy, my mom and Tuesday we went and spent all day with a really good friend that we haven't seen in almost 2 years. She moved to Texas and every time she came to town some one always ended up sick and then we moved to Denver and she just now moved back to Oklahoma. We were so excited to see each other and had a great time together! On our way over to her house, Eliott threw up in the car. Didn't think much of it, had no idea why he did that?? We had dinner at some other friends house and he was grumpy the whole time and wouldn't eat anything except a few tortilla chips. We went back to the hotel and Eliott threw up again but both times were because he was coughing so hard. Wednesday morning he seemed to be okay and ate breakfast and seemed to be in a good mood. We went and saw a few more friends, ate lunch with my mom and then to Oma & Opa's house to go out to dinner for my birthday. Eliott was in an okay mood but now had the runs. By Thursday morning I woke up and felt bad and Fin started sounded like he was getting stopped up. By Thursday afternoon I was so sick of having 3 kids in a little tiny hotel room, living in a hotel and now having sick kids and me feeling bad I just wanted to go home. So our plans for Thursday were a no go and so I called Denzil and asked if we could go home a day early. So sorry to the people I didn't see when we were there, it was not a very pleasant first trip back to Oklahoma.

I'll have to blog more later-
