Teething + congestion = Poor baby Parker
Just heard from Joshua, seems like just a teething thing with Parker with some congestion on top of it... so that's good nothing serious! :)
Update.. kind of freaking..
Man these last two weeks have been LONG. I don’t know if you know or not but I am suppose to have surgery on my knee on Monday and kind of freaking, but I “know” that God has me and the surgeon’s hand and He is going to guide my doctor to do what needs to be done. This is my first surgery that I actually have to go “under”. I have faith that all will go well and although it will be a while till I am back at the park running. I will get this issue fixed with this surgery and a month of physical therapy. I am still struggling with guilt and feeling all this is my fault. This could not have happened at a worse time.. well I guess it could be “worse” but this will set us back from our plans and that REALLY does frustrate me. I have got to stop listening to the lies of Satan saying that it is my fault and I get rid of this guilt.
Last week was rough and really busy, Joshua and I did not do WW (weight Watchers) last week and we could tell. Our bodies were getting use to the good for you food and not welcoming the fast food so we are back on WW starting yesterday. Good news on the WW front I have lost 12 lbs.. YEAH!!! So there is that. And we are back on track.
There seems to be blah over our house. With Joshua having to do EVERYTHING around the house and taking care of EVERYONE this is wearing on him and I hope he only has about a week more left of it. While my knee junk has been going on, our kids have gotten sick, causing Tyler to be up most the night Sunday night and Parker was up most of the night last night. (When the kids get up because of my bum knee Joshua gets up with them.) Not last night as much I got up a few times with Parker. This all started Sunday night. We think and pray that Tyler’s is just allergies and he is on meds for those but as for Parker we are not sure. Joshua is at the doctor with him now to see what is going on.
Update on the boys—Tyler is doing great… he is growing up so fast his first theaters experience will be tomorrow. We are going to take him to see Toy Story 3, I am not sure who is more excited Joshua and I or Tyler. Parker besides being sick is doing great.. He is rolling all over the place and grabs anything he can get his hands on… he is VERY curious. He looks like he will be crawling any day now and boy will that make for an interesting house hold.

Surgery it is then
Well after being off my knee for 3 days, and calling my couch my 2nd home, I went to the orthopic specialist today. After looking at the MRI he said the best option would be surgery. Seems that I have some banged up cartlage pretty bad, he is going to go in there and clean it up, if he sees anything torn on my knee while he is in there then he is going to fix that too. I am scheduled for surgery the June 28th and then I will have about four weeks of physical therapy to make sure my knee is healed. Until the surgery I am to take it easy and just chill. (that is really hard for me but I am trying) I am so so thankful for Joshua and how he is taking care of me and the kids without complaining... such a great hubby and father.
Everyone else is just fine... Tyler is at VBS, his first one and enjoying it, his last day is tomorrow, I will post pictures later.. Joshua is at VBS taking pics of the kiddos and seems to be enjoying that. Parker and I have been here at the house chillin all week. He is asleep so I thought I would send out an update and let everyone know. Please keep me in your prayers over all this and my family too.. I am really freaking about going under.. I have NEVER had to do that.. so yeah... I am praying for FAST recovery. And the smarts to take it easy after all this and build back up where I was.
Hope everyone is well.

Total Bummer --> Knee update.
Okay here is the latest in case you are wanting to be updated.
For those of you that don’t know.. I have been training for a 5K and while running a week ago I feel. I landed with all my weight on my right knee.. through the week it got worse.. so I went to the doctor on Friday. And they sent me to the orthopedic specialist.
So I went to the orthopedic dr yesterday and he said it looked like I damaged my cartilage behind my knee cap, (the meniscus) and wants to send me to get an MRI. So I will be getting an MRI on Friday at 1pm here in McKinney then I will have follow up with the orthopedic dr. on Monday (not sure the time on this, Joshua (my husband) set this up. I will let you guys know when I find this out.)
Currently I am on crutches and not suppose to use my knee if at all possible.. so in the office I am scooting around in my rolling chair..Thankful for hard wood floors.
Should be interesting.. as for the pain.. not too bad in the morning but it just gets worse during the day and at night.. yeah OUCH!!! Right now it is throbbing..
Good times.. Trying to figure out what God is trying to teach me here.... only thing I can come up with is learning to ask for help.. because I am having to do that ALOT.. too much if you ask me...

Well all is well in the family… work out is going well I am one lb away from 10 lbs so excited about that. Work outs have been few because while running on Tuesday morning I took a dive, a big one and banged up my knees pretty good and my hands. My hands and right knee are doing better by left knee not so much. So I am going to the doctor this afternoon to get them to look at my right knee to make sure nothing is wrong with it.
Tyler is now potty trained! So yesterday was TYLER DAY! Joshua took the day off and we went to the local fire house and met some Firemen and Tyler got to sit in Fire trucks and see the inside of an Ambulance and a nice firemen, went upstairs so he could show Tyler how they slide down the pole when a call comes in. Tyler got to try it out too. He loved it but did not say but he was a little overwhelmed… See the pics.
We also went to Wally World and let him pick out his prize. And to no surprise he picked out some Hot wheel stuff and super hero undies. After that a special lunch at Wendy’s and off we went to pick up our youngest Parker (he was at the sitters while we were doing all the things with Tyler). After we picked up Parker we went to the park and Tyler and Parker got to swing.
After that Tyler played in the water while Parker and I chilled and Joshua took some pictures. The rest of the day/evening was recover time for all of us.
That is about all the resent things going on…. Hope all is well with everyone.
