Playing with the train planter I'd purchased a year ago on clearance.
It was intended for the backyard shaded walk area. But the person who said they'd help us pay for a fence didn't, (we'd have not planned on and purchased for such a project, had we not believed there'd be a way to make such a thing safe for the boys) so it will take us much longer to get it up... making a shaded walkway for wheelchair rides a distant idea.
So instead of continuing to leave it in a box where they can't enjoy it at all, I pulled it out and put it together.
It's above the kitchen cabinets now, so they can see it everyday.
A work in progress still... I need more trees.
Sorry the pic is so dodgy.
These are the trucks Grandma and Grandpa Weber brought for the backyard project too. Again, makes no sense to leave them in a box, so they are on the family room side of the vaulted ceiling.
Aidan's been making up stories like the homemade Thomas ones he watches on you tube.
Poor little man had so much draining snot this morning, he went to sneeze and puked instead.
He waited patiently in the tub with a big fluffy but puke-y towel, while I cleaned up the carpet, (have to clean up the mess on the floor first, or the other boys will track it everywhere) and got the rest of his brother's meds down him. Then he sat there while I shaved his hair and gave him a shower.... sniffing. He did amazing... I've never been able to get him to stay in the tub waiting for me before! I was so grateful, because I had a migraine starting and Jace was making more messes as I was cleaning up the puke... I needed someone to not contribute to the chaos. And Aidan helped me clean up Jace's full dumped over drink.
Again, amazing.
Showing off another of his creations.
He comes up with the coolest vehicles and robots.
I'm pretty sure I mentioned on here somewhere that I'd been to the doctor and referred to the neurologist and was supposed to have a bunch of testing done. Labs were first. I have yet to be told what the results were, but I'm assuming they were normal because they always are, and frankly, I know I don't have some of the stuff they were testing for... I'm not an idiot, some of it I don't even have key symptoms of, hello. Then I was supposed to have the heart monitor. I know it's not my heart either, I haven't been passed out on the floor, there is no hole in my heart. (I am not saying this flippantly, a mother from church just recently found out she did have a hole in hers... it's an emergency) Well, in a really slug you in your gut and then slap you in face sort of way, I ended up not having the heart monitor. They refused to do it without half down of what was more than the MRI cost. Of course, I have no such money. They asked several times, "don't you want to reschedule?" Well, hell no I don't want to reschedule. I could go on, but I won't. I left with only saying politely, "no."
Then the w&w/out contrast MRI... it was... oh so awful to experience without sedation at this point. I can't hold still to save my life. The trembling and jerking, I have no control over. And the NOISE! And it took what seemed like FOREVER when I couldn't hold still and all I wanted to do was curl up in a ball and ball. I went in without a migraine, left with a new one on the opposite side of my head they'd been for 3 weeks. I couldn't walk straight and kept stumbling. I was so grateful for the migraine pain med I could take afterward though. I paid for the whole thing dearly, and I feel worse 2 days after vs just 1. Hoping this is the worst. :)
Now, I wait for the MRI results and the neuro appt.
