Ok, i should have updated awhile back but oh well better later then never.
Well i had the most wonderful weekend with my mother at the women of faith conference in Houston. We left on friday at noon when i got off of work and road the bus to Houston with all the other women of our church. It was a lot of fun getting to know some of the women and their daughters.
We got there around 5:30ish on Friday and tried to check into our Hotel and their was literally 500000000000 women there for the conference and every hotel around that area was booked. Well we had reserved our room 6months prior to the conference and we were sharing a room with another mother and daughter of our church. Well they ran out of 2 double bed rooms and they only had 1 king and they would give you a roll away. Well ok so this left me no choice to offer myself to sleep "on the floor" ...bleh..oh well it worked out fine. Me and my mother shared a TINY roll away bed, it was jokes actually because i woke up stuck to the plastic of the roll away bed *pretty funny actuallly*. Well the first night was opening night and every speaker was being introduced and told a little about themselves and we sang a lot of praise songs and Avalon *the group* came out and sang a few songs as well. Well the next morning we all woke up and we had an all day conference of speakers and a concert by Avalon *christian band*. It was amazing. All the speakers were very good. They would make you cry, laugh, think...all the above. I ended up buying SO MUCH STUFF. Me and my mother bought matching T-shirts and i got some books, cd's, a nice bag and a dvd. All in all it was a wonderful experience and great leap forward in my faith. I can't wait until next year. It will be in San Antonio and its the national conference and a lot of BIG WIGS i guess you could say are going to be there.
I really enjoyed having the bonding time with my mother. Me and her never get to do much anymore. We are so busy with work and when we get home we just wanna relax. *thanks again mom for bringing me to such an amazing event*...
Abbi had her easter egg hunt at daycare today. SOO CUTE..all the kids were running around at the end of the day like they had a great time and had been eating sugar for the last few hours! Well Abbi came home with a gallon bucket easter basket FILLED TO THE TOP. Pretty scary, we have 3 more easter egg hunts for her coming up. The church hunt on Sat., one with my family and then one with me and Brian on Sun. Thats a lot of candy but i know Abbi will have an amazing time.
Oh ya, an my fav of all fav fags got in touch with me a week ago and it just made my day. I had been missing him for months and wondered why he fell off the face of the earth. Things are going well for him and im so proud to say that he FINALLY got rid of that ridiculous hair hehe...luv ya man *muah*!! Abbi saw him the other day and couldn't get enough, still can't! She is asking about him all day everyday. Amazing how someone can have such an impact on someone so little. :) :)...
I had an appointment for Abbi yesterday. I finally got her checked for Diabetes. Yes i've been in denial and very affraid to go but me and Dr. Honeycutt are good friends with the new Pediatrician down the road from us and he came in and talked me into going to see him yesterday. Well he did a finger stick to check her glucose and it was normal *god im so thankful for that*, well diabetes isn't completely ruled out yet BUT its a good thing her glucose was normal. Well now about her DRINKING he believed it to be a behavioral problem and we need to just get on the ball and not let her demand what she wants *ya like that will work haha*. He said that she was having her colon problems again, which means her GI problems are back :(...I feel so sorry for the little one. So now we are back on the miralax and on a new ointment for her. Im praying to god that this will work. Also we have now put poor little Abbi on a fiber diet because of her condition. Blah ...He also said i need to keep track of her pee color *great* and still how much she drinks because it could be a patuitary type of diabetes that sends a message to the brain thinking "im thirsty" and she will drink drink drink but its not an insulin dependent type. Im just so scared at all these things that she has had and she is only 3 years old. I pray for her health and happiness everyday, and i just hope i can manage everything well and keep her as healthy as possible. I love you baby doll.
So as you can see some pretty stressful things going on but, of course, im manging it well ...
So ya the Copeland show is like some all day Beach Island Party thing thats going on at the UT tower next Sat. the 22. I didn't realize it was from like 3pm to 11pm. Didn't really want this to be a big ol' college thing but i guess its gunna be. Oh well BJ, Brian, Me and Nick i think are going. Maybe i can get Sarah to come and be civil hehe...
Thats enough for now im tired ;p..
