Stunt Clinic

Miranda had so much fun at the clinic. I had forgotten my camera, well honestly didn't even consider bringing it so here are a few pictures from my camera phone.

She's one of the smallest girls so she will probably be the 'flyer' for the squad.

She took a turn learning how to be the 'base'

As well as learning how to be the 'spotter'

Sick Boy

So poor Kyler has been fighting being sick off and on for the past couple of week. He missed two days of school last week due to a sore throat. I took him to the doctor on the first day and the quick strep test was negative as well as the culture test. Great...so he was prescribed cough meds with codeine.

This morning I went to wake him up and he said he didn't feel well (what tween doesn't say that every morning??) so I kinda blew it off then but he wasn't getting up and kept saying he was going to throw up. He wanted to take his temp so he did and it was 103.6...wowza! I told him to stay in bed and rest while I got Miranda off to school. I didn't think too much of it because he was in a t-shirt and sweatpants all wrapped up in a comforter so I thought maybe that made the fever higher.

I got home and went to check on him, he was then just in his boxers with no covers on and he was SO hot to the touch, kinda freaked me out. So I called and got an appointment for him right away. The poor kid was so dizzy and disoriented from his fever, I felt horrible.

Here is a picture of him in the waiting room, he'd kill me if he knew I took it much less posted it LOL

So we finally get called back and his temp is at 103.4 (yay my thermometer is pretty accurate after all). They did another strep test and a flu test and this time the strep test was positive.

Sooo the lil bugger is now on good old Amoxicillin and Ibuprofen and sleeping soundly. I hope he gets to feeling better soon...poor kiddo!

Preview of my little Cheerleader

I wanted to show off a couple pictures of Miranda. We got her uniform order taken care of tonight. I was able to buy a used top, shell and jacket at 1/2 price so that saved me $77! But I still had to pay $135 (even after the $74.50 cookie dough sales credit) for the briefs, socks, top, poms, and bag. I've already paid in $80 to get her signed up for cheer and another $10 for the stunt clinic she's going to this Saturday sooooo I'm $225 into it and it hasn't even started LOL


Oh well, she's excited for it and she looks damn cute so who cares right???

I also wanted to wish my fur baby happy birthday! Maddie turns 1 year old today!!!

Here she is on the day we got her, June 21, 2008

Here she is today!

What to write about today...

I guess I can write about my munchkins today.

Kyler has really struggled this year in 7th grade. I'm really nervous he won't pull his grades up before the end of the year which is only 6 short weeks away. His father I are doing some things to see what the heck is going on with him...but that's a whole other post in itself. For now, I'm thinking positive that things will work out. He isn't doing any sports right now which I think was the best decision he could've made. Baseball is right around the corner, if he decides he wants to play.

Miranda has decided she wants to do cheerleading. How damn cute is that?? Since she's only in 4th grade, of course there isn't anything here in town to cheer for at that age. So we've signed her up to cheer in a league based out of 'the city'. She will cheer for our town's team, for her age group of boys that will play football in the fall. Kyler played football in this league in 6th grade before he played for his school this year. She has her uniform fitting tomorrow night and is so excited for it. Then she has a stunt clinic she is going to participate in on Saturday. Through out the summer there will be other clinics as well as some practices. In August the practices will become mandatory. The football games will be Oct-Nov I believe. Kyler told her he doesn't mind her doing this because at least he can watch the games while she cheers. What a good brother huh? LOL She has sat through how many of his various games for how many years??? hahaha!!

Let's see...

What the heck has been going on in my little non blog world for the last couple months...

I think the last post I had done was on my birthday. I turned 39 and am loving it. I don't feel my age what so ever, never have! My three BFFs from highschool and I are going to try to plan a girls trip sometime over the next year to celebrate all of our 40th birthdays!


I FINALLY got to see Britney and the Pussycat Dolls...wowza, that was an incredible show!!!

Went to a Kansas City Royals game at the newly remodeled stadium and it is amazing!! I am going to take the kids to a game in a couple weeks. I can't wait!!

I'm still working out at least 4 times a week. I have only lost about 8 pounds total but I have lost a lot of inches and that's what counts. My clothes feel a lot better!!

I am still using my Nike + iPod to track my distances. I try to do at least 2 miles every time I workout. I have reached 119 miles so far. I am trying to run more each time but I am SO not a runner so it hasn't been that successful but I am still trying. I just signed up for a Mother's Day 5k that I really want to run a lot of it.

Took the kiddos to the Omaha zoo for a weekend trip. It's a fantasic zoo and I recommend it to anyone that can get there!!

Dated a guy I had gone to highschool with. We had reconnected last summer at our 20th reunion and in January some mutual friends thought we'd make a good couple so we started talking and making plans to see each other. It was a long distance relationship but we were making it work. But over time I came to realize he wasn't the person I thought he was and he really broke my heart. Live, love, learn and move on with positive thoughts...no regrets right?

I'm sure I am forgetting stuff but this was enough for now.

Sneaks quietly in....

Hi everyone,

I know I know, it's been forever (actually it's been about 55 days) since I've blog...I'm sorry.

I hope to slowly get back into it, I need a way to vent my feelings it seems LOL

I hope I haven't been dropped off of many blogrolls but I am sure I have and that's my fault!

Anyways, just wanted to do a quickie and say I'll be back now!!
