DEJA VU


YESTERDAY I FELT I HAD WENT BACK IN TIME TO A DAY THAT I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA LOSE MY BABY GIRL. STORMY HAD A ROUGH WEEK LAST WEEK WITH BRONCHITIS, AND HER EAR HURTING. THE ANTIBIOTICS THAT SHE WAS GIVEN CAUSED A RASH ALL OVER SO HER PEDIATRICIAN TOOK HER OFF EVERYTHING AND PRESCRIBED ZYRTEC. WELL I MADE SURE THE OTHER MED WAS OUT OF HER SYSTEM BEFORE I GOT THE NEW ONE. AS I LEFT THE PHARMACY I NOTICED THAT THE PHARMACIST WROTE TAKE ONE DAILY ON A LIQUID. I CALLED AND ASKED WHAT ONE MEANT. WAS IT A TEASPOON. TABLESPOON, BOTTLE. WELL THE PHARMACIST SAID THATS SUPPOSED TO BE TEASPOON. OK IM SATISFIED. FOR THE MOMENT. I GAVE IT TO STORMY AND SHE WENT TO SLEEP THEN BECAME VERY RESTLESS CLAWING HER FACE. HER EYES MATTED OVER AND SHE DIDNT WANT TO WAKE UP BUT SHE DID FINALLY. I WENT AND CHECKED A BOTTLE OF RHETTS MEDICINE THAT WAS THE SAME AT HIOM BEING 15 MONTHS AND IT WAS 1/2 WHAT SHE WAS GIVEN. AND RHETT WAS HEAVIER THEN THAN SHE IS NOW. I CALLED THE PEDITRICAN AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD WROTE 1/2 TEASPOON ON HER PRESCRIPTION AND THE PHARMACY HAD MESSED UP. I WAS IN FULL PANIC MODE. SAMS COULDNT READ THE ORGINAL PRESCRIPTION SO THEY THOUGHT IT SAID 1. IT JUST MAKES ME MAD. MY BABY IS JUST A CUSTOMER TO THEM NO REMORSE NOTHING. THIS HAPPENED TO LEXI EXCEPT THE PHARMACIST TECH PUT 5ML INSTEAD OF .5 ML. AND LEXI ALMOST DIED. ITS SO SAD THE PEOPLE WE TRUST TO HELP US GET BETTER, REALLY DONT DOUBLE CHECK THINGS. THEY DONT WORK WITH BOOKS THEY WORK WITH LIVES. MAKES ME LEARY TO TRUST THEM AGAIN. GOOD NEWS STORMY DIDNT HAVE ENOUGH TO CAUSE DAMAGE.

Its family Friday: updates on all my kiddos

Maddie has been promoted to the 4th grade. So excited she bench marked past her goal. So amazing since a year ago she was at a kindergarten reading level and now shes at 4th grade. Its a wonder what finding the right teachers can do. Shes so excited it summer. To her it means the pool and more pool, and maybe sleeping in. lol. She has been instructed to read more over the summer. So im hoping that means library trips. And shes really wanting to scrapbook too so that means Hobby Lobby!
Lexi is going into the 2nd grade. So funnhy she said she was gonna quit school if she got one teacher well that teacher got moved to 1st grade so no worries there. She is way ready for summer. She thinks school is a waste of time. But now being able to be outdoors daily will make her super happy. Shes the rowdy one so i really have to watch her with the baby.
Emma has really started making herself at home here on her visits. She argues with the girls just like sisters do. As soon as she walks in the door its where r my pjs. She has been peeing her pants everyday, so its got to where i have to put Rhetts diapers on her. Still no clue why shes been doing it, but at least her sheets get cleaned daily. lol. She has had an issue with hitting Rhett so shes had to be disciplined. She left a whelp across Rhetts chest. But since that time she hasnt hit anyone. She does whine if shes told no, then we here she wants her mommy, but after about 5 minutes of no one paying attention she realizes that I dont cave to the cries. All my kids know that. She really is a sweet little girl, she loves to help me and take pictures with me. i cant wait to see how things go when shes here for 3 weeks starting june 13th.
Rhett is making so much progress in his therapy. Hes saying a few new words and everyone i hear i want to cry. Makes me so proud! Ive heard parents say the wish they could tape their kids mouths shut cause they talk so much and i used to be one like that until i longed to hear Rhett say a sentence to me. Like last night the girls kept screaming at each other and laughing and talking as loud as they could and i would tell them to keep it down but i didnt tell them to get quiet. I just ignored the commotion. Rhett has been going to the potty something they said wouldnt come until hes about 4 because of his lack of senses in that area, and i know that im making him potty, but he does start trying to take off his pull up whne he needs to go so i know when he has the urge. he is actually approaching strangers and allowing others to hold him. its a great feeling to know hes being pulled from his world into ours.
Stormy is trying to get enough courage to walk. She chickens out as soon as her hands leave whatever shes holding. I hope she starts walking before 1 tho. that gives us 6 weeks to get her courage. Wheres the wizard of oz when u need him? She has started clapping. And she likes to climb on things too. She seems to have the fear of heights thing down, she tries not to go down after she goes up, so thankful there. I wish she would say momma more than she does. Im only talked about when her feelings are hurt.:( She has had a recent case of bronchitis or so they said, and the antibiotics they gave caused a massive reaction. I have never seen my baby girl so miserable. She itched all over. And it would get worse. But today she woke up and its barely visible. so its a good friday!. I'll only do family friday updates once a month, next friday will be fun filled friday, posting pics of the fun of summer
