So Much To Do

I have so much blogging to get caught up on. I just looked and saw that my last post with pictures was in October. So much has happened since then but I think for right now I need to blog about what I am going through at this moment. Tuesday was the 2 week mark for my surgery. When people told me that the recovery for this surgery was rough I thought that it was because of the pain. I was wrong way wrong. My incisions have healed and the glue has all come off but I am still sooooooo tired after doing just a couple of things. It has been so hard to admit that I need help and that I can't take care of my own kids especially Gracie. Having a 17 month old and trying to recover from this type of surgery is a JOKE! My Grandma has been a life saver to say the least. She has come over almost everyday to try and help me and to make sure that I am not doing to much. This past week Blaine's family has really stepped up and helped out. More about that later, I have to remember that I did have major surgery. During the surgery they took almost everything except my right ovary. So not only did they take out half my insides but then they had to do some reconstructive surgery to finish everything off. Everything on the outside may be healed but my insides are still trying to recover. When you can actually see it that is a hard thing to remember sometimes. Everything that I wanted to do fun with my kids this summer has come to a halt. They have been living on cereal, tv, and you tube. Oh well I guess that's all that I can do for now. Ok I'm done whining on to some fun cute pictures.
Like I said Gracie has spent the last few days has been at her girl cousin's house. She has had all the attention and has had tea parties and I even got this text yesterday of Gracie getting her first pig tails.

Gracie does have hair but it seems to be coming in from the back to the front, so she has this mullet thing going on. Now it is starting to curl so it doesn't look so bad but haven't done this yet. I told the girls they are going to have to teach me how to do little girl hair.

This is pretty funny, the night before Blaine but Gracies bracelets on her feet. She thought this was pretty funny so when she was getting ready this morning I put them on her wrists and she took them off and put them on her legs. They didn't stay all day cuz in the picture above they are on her wrists and when she came home she had them on her wrists.
This morning I told her that she was going to the girls house again today she wanted to get dressed and started bringing everything that she took out of the diaper bag the night before. When Grandma came to pick her up she wanted kisses from her brothers, I had to beg for mine and then she was out of here. Gma even had to tell her to slow down cuz she was running to the car.
Later today my Gma came and got the boys and took them to McDonalds play place so they could have a change of pace. Then they went to the Library Ryan hasn't ever been to the public library Cameron has once. Ya I know I'm not a good mom but I am trying to do better with the reading thing. So while they have been gone I have worked on laundry and trying to get the kitchen cleaned up. The boys will be home soon and then they will go to gymnastics. I am trying to learn my new limits but I don't figure them out till I have done to much.
