Just about had a heart attack today!!!

So, this morning I was out with the kids and my cell phone rang, but I didn't get to it in time. I didn't really recognize the number at first, but I could tell that I had seen it before. So I called it, but it just brought me to the District office of Bradyn's school. I thought OK, well hopefully they leave a message. Well, a minute or so later my dad calls so I ask, "Did Bradyn's school call you?" He is on the emergency card so, I just assumed since they didn't get a hold of me they must have called him. Well, he says no, but they called the house and talked to Grandma Jackson. He then tells me that they were wondering were Bradyn was and that he wasn't there at school. PANIC!!!!!!!!!!!! I said, "WHAT, I sent him to the bus this morning, but I didn't physically see him get on I just saw the bus pull up." Needless to say I was COMPLETELY FREAKING OUT!!!! I immediately called the school because luckily I had the number programmed into my phone. I told the secretary what I was told and she said, "No, we called because Bradyn says that his stomach hurts." Instant relief!!! I was like oh, OK I will be there soon to pick him up. I called to tell my dad that everything was OK because he was worried too. Of course, I immediately assumed that my Grandma was at fault because she really cannot hear very well. However, when I got home and asked her what the school said it was obvious that the misunderstanding was on my dads end. Either way, I am so grateful that everything was just a mix up because of course I started thinking the worst when my dad called. My kids are all home safe and I am good!!!!!!

Sick baby update!!!

So, I decided to take Audrey to the Doctor today because her eye was so puffy and draining like crazy. They said that she has a Sinus Infection :( Well, actually they said that by the look of her that they guess it is a sinus infection, but that her sinus' are so small they can't be 100% sure. So, they prescribed her some antibiotics and I hope that they start working quickly.

On a happier note, after two nights of being up from 3-5am, last night she actually slept from about 10:45pm to 6:30am. Hallelujah!!!!!! Lets hope for a repeat tonight, except that she went to bed at 8:30 instead of 10:30.

Sick Babies

We have had a lot of colds going around over here and Audrey just can't get rid of hers. Yesterday I kept her and Logan home from church and luckily Logan seems just fine today. Audrey on the other hand had a really horrible night. She was coughing so much that it made it hard for her to sleep. She did pretty well if Les or I were holding her, but as soon as we laid her down the congestion in her nose would get so bad that she couldn't keep her pacifier in and she was uncomfortable because she couldn't breath out of her nose. It was pretty sad. I even took her out of bed and suctioned out her nose and man I couldn't believe how much came out. She was up and struggling to sleep from 3am to 5am!!!! Which of course meant that we were up too. Finally we were able to get her to fall asleep laying in bed next to us. She NEVER sleeps with us so, I was surprised (but grateful) that she actually fell asleep. She is still pretty boogery today, but has taken some really good naps. Now, lets hope that she is able to sleep better tonight!

*The picture in this post is not of her sick, but I thought that it was really sweet.
