Saturday Moments

Saturday Moments … WOW … work was bussssssssy today – gotta love the summer months and tourists. (sort of) LOL!! I do .. I love them … I really really do!! Baseball teams maybe not so much!! HA HA HA! I actually have to go back to work this tonight 😦 Mom is short staffed this weekend so I am doing a double shift today. Then we have a surprise birthday party to go tonight, which is why I am doing my blogging now in case I don’t make it back tonight to blog. I should actually be in the shower right now before going back to work but I wanted to make sure I got some bloggin’ done first!! 🙂

Late Friday Moments

Late Friday Night Moments … where do the time go?? LOL!! GAH!! It got away on me again, here it is shortly after midnight EST and I am just getting to posting about our Friday Moments!! It was actually a pretty uneventful day in the lives of the Moore’s today. 😉 Danielle went to Dance Camp, Lacey went to the chiropractor again – he gave her clearance to push herself a little harder (YIPPEE), the girls and I went to visit a friend and her kids and have coffee, McDonald’s for lunch, a nap, pick Danielle up, dinner, showers, Peter had a soccer game, Lacey went to a birthday party, I made some wordart, scrapped a layout, baths, made spinach dip, and now here I am!! Whew!! All in all it was a great uneventful day!! LOL!!

Here are the layouts I posted around digi-town tonight!! 🙂

Thursday’s Moment

Thursday’s Moment … wow … the day is almost over and I’m just getting to my blogging!! 🙂 But nonetheless I’m here!! Today was a great day … Lacey was able to go to the studio and do a light stretch with Ms. Meghan … NO DIZZINESS … and NO HEADACHE!! WOOT!! I think she is in the clear!! THANK YOU GOD!!! I worked tonight … nothing new or exciting there!! Other than … word of advice DO NOT get Vinegar in your eye it STINGS!! LOL!! 🙂

WATER WATER WATER WATER CHALLENGE! Today … 64oz!! **rolling eyes**

Wednesday’s Moment

Wednesday’s Moment … ugh another long day!! LOL!! Story of my life really don’t ya think? I didn’t have to work today because Lacey’s team had a game – and because the girls are in dance camp this week – I can’t work during the day since I don’t have a sitter for the little girls. My that was a bunch of rambling bubbling goo now wasn’t it!! HA! Today was cleaning lady day … woooot woooot wooot LOVE it!! I still don’t have a picture of my new hair … cause the camera is still at the studio TOMORROW!! LOL!!

On a positive note today … we have made some progress with Lacey — FINALLY!! We had a good talk last night with a friend of ours who is a chiropractor – about Lacey’s condition (she sees him on a regular issue for recurring back issues anyways) – his daughter also plays on Danielle’s soccer team. I took Lacey to see him today – he did some X-Rays to make sure that she didn’t have anything broken or fractured in her neck prior to adjusting her – he also did some standard neurological tests – having her follow a pen with just her eyes and tracing the pen along her face to make sure she could feel it. Both of these tests proved that she thankfully has no neurological damage – and the XRays showed that there was no fracture or breaks. THANK GOD!! The X Rays did however show that her 2nd vertibrae was tilted to the left quite a bit, thus causing pressure on her brain stem, which could be affecting her dizziness, nausea and headaches. So, we decided to go ahead with the adjustment, and immediately afterwards you could see a noticeable difference in her. WOOT!!! He also did a cranial (spelling??) adjustment – which she said felt AMAZING!! hehehe! This doesn’t necessarily mean that she is completely out of the woods yet … but we should now be able to tell whether she is suffering from POST-concussion symptoms or just a simple alignment problem. She is going to go to dance tomorrow morning and do a one on one stretch  with one of the teachers to see how she fairs. It will be a low impact stretch to test the waters. If that goes well, I will take her again on Friday for an adjustment and then let her go again to dance and do a higher impact stretch session or a light jog. Then Saturday she will attempt to do some one on one drills with cones and a ball weaving in and out to see how that goes, if that goes well, then Sunday she will be cleared to attempt a light practice with the team. To then hopefully have her able to play again by next Wednesday and if not Wednesday then by the weekend for her tournament. If all of these things aren’t able to happen then we are back to square one and just waiting it out until things settle some more. Please pray that she this adjustment was the thing she needed and will be able to get back to normal soon!!

On that note … I’m going to go and work on a little freebie for tomorrow and then hit the hay!! 21 day water challenge … I only managed about 48 ounces of water today … but nonetheless did drink some!! 🙂

In Daddy’s Footsteps

Tuesday’s Moments

Tuesday’s Moments … ugh .. another day almost complete … why does time have to rush by so quick?? GAH! I got my hair done today … loving it !! I will get pictures tomorrow … cause Lacey left the camera at the dance studio this morning. BRAT!!! My poor Lacey is not having a good time with life right now … she is still suffering from her concussion. 😦 She can’t dance this week because of it and she tried to go to the studio today just to watch but had to come home because watching the girls dance made her stomach ill. She’s just not happy. Tomorrow night she’s supposed to be playing soccer but can’t – she’s just not thinking life is very fair right now. I feel so bad for her because I know how badly she wants to be able to play. Well I’m gonna go and work on some more wordarts now 🙂

21 day water challenge – 128 oz again today!!

Monday’s Moments

Monday’s Moment … today we celebrated Keisha’s First Birthday with family and friends!! Ohhh what a day! Peter’s brother and Sister-in-law came from Toronto, our friends Kurt & Catherine with their twins William and Susan came from Aurora, along with friends from here in town, my lifelong friend Sherrie and her husband Daryl along with their 3 children. My brother and his girlfriend also stopped over for a bit as well. 

Thankfully the weather held off nicely, just a slight sprinkling of rain this afternoon while we were husking the corn, but it ended almost as quickly as it began and the sun did come out again with a vengence! The kids all swam, played, ate and considering there were 10 of them here were quite merry!! 🙂 I will post pictures tomorrow … once I have time to touch some of them up a bit … but I will post one now 😉

21 day challenge … ugh … I didn’t do as well today with my water … but I did manage to get 64 ounces in!!

Sunday’s Moment

Sunday’s Moment … good evening all, it’s been another long day. I worked this morning at 8:30am … but didn’t have to stay for the entire shift because it wasn’t all that busy. 😉 I came home and had a nap for a couple of hours … and then it was time to get my butt up and face the day. My darling husband made dinner … BBQ’d steak, baked potato, green beans and brocoli mmmm mmmm good!! 🙂 I LOVE MY PETER!!

After dinner Peter took the 4 little girls to the park, while Lacey and I stayed home and began the preparations for tomorrow’s birthday celebration. What an adventure that was … lol…  🙂 We listened to Lacey’s iPod music while we worked … nothing like some rockin’ Disney music to help you out along the way. HA HA HA!

Our menu for tomorrow consists of:

Smoked Pork Chops, Corn on the Cob, Potato Salad, Macaroni Salad, Spinach Salad, and Roasted Veggie Orzo Pasta Salad. Is it dinner time yet??? LOL!! 🙂

Opps completely forgot to mention my water intake for the day!!

128 oz again!! 🙂

Saturday’s Moment Just life!! :)

Saturday’s Moment … today my baby girl turned ONE!! 😦 How does that happen it seems like only yesterday, she was born.  I do believe she is going to be my wild child she is definitely full of spunk!! LOL!! 🙂 I love you Keisha Marie!!!

Lacey is still struggling with symptoms from her concussion – dizziness and slight upset stomach – I’m hoping with more rest these things vanish quickly. She’s starting to get a little anxious about the fact that she’s not feeling well and it’s hard to watch her struggle.

Tomorrow is another work day for me …. GAH, I’m starting to dislike working!! LOL!! I suppose after having a year off for maternity leave I should just shut up and suck it up though!! HA!

WATER CHALLENGE —- wooot goooo me!! 128 oz again today!!

Friday’s Moment

Friday’s Moment … so I missed my first blog post in a week yesterday … it was a crazy day and then when I tried to get on quickly last night I couldn’t get into wordpress!! 😦 It’s been a long week … gah!! Lacey got a concussion in Wednesday night’s soccer game. Which resulted in a trip to the hospital for about 3 hours YUCK!! She’s doing ok … but still has bouts of dizziness and headpains!  I have worked everyday this week so far … and still have 2 more to go!! Tomorrow is my little Keisha’s 1st Birthday – where the heck does the time go???

I started a 21 day challenge with Kat and some other insane digi-scrappers today. My challenge is to increase my water intake each day – I’m a caffeine addict … but I must start drinking more water. Today has been tough … because i have a pretty hardcore headache – from not consuming as much caffeine as usual. I did manage to drink 128 oz of water today while at work though!! 🙂 I am having a coffee right now as I type this though …cause the headache was getting too intense.

I have been  hosting some chats at Oscraps this week … and have done a few layouts. It’s time now for the layout parade!! LOL!! 🙂
