Miss Wiggles update

Miss Wiggles has succesfully wrapped me around her little finger. She makes me laugh like a child, make faces like a crazy person, worry like...well, a mother. So far in her nine months she has spiked a significant fever, one 105, the other very near it. Both came back with a false postive for a UTI, both had evidence in testing of an infection somewhere. She is fine now, happy as a clam. Miss Wiggles did get an ultra sound though and while everything looked like it was flowing smoothly, the kidneys while both in the normal range were different sizes. One was smaller than the other. So, in January, we are off to see a Urologist (did I spell that right? I'm so not McKMamma in all her precise medical date).

In six months or so, we will have to go in for another ultra sound to see if both are growing at a normal rate. Its all just normal and fine but, boy, that doesn't stop a mom from worrying does it? Mommy guilt and Mommy worry are as much my constant companions as my two big toes. Seriously, I am having to give her up to God constantly trying to remind myself He is in charge, especially now that she is cruising along furniture. Whew, at least she isn't driving yet.

We would love your prayers that all is well. It would be much appreciated.

My oldest IS driving now, and I hate to say it-- but it just doesn't stop. The worry. The guilt. The frustration and the absolute pride when you see them doing something amazing. Being a mom is tough stuff!! No one ever told me that I would cry my eyes out, get in touch with my inner mama tiger, worry until my hair (literally) turned gray and fall flat on my face in prayer on a regular basis for these children! And at the same time, every day, I find myself thanking God that He allowed me to be a part of their lives. They are all four such blessings to me. And each and every day, God shows me some nugget of His truth through my relationship with my own children.

Our Katie within the first week we had her home had a temperature of 102. Of course we took her to a clinic where the doctor told us, without tests, that she probably just had a cold. He was more interested in some development issues.

Later her temperature raised to 105 and we rushed her to the emergency room. In Northern Va they have a pediatrician on call. I'm not sure who it was more traumatic for -- me or her.

Now she's for and is fighting with me over who is going to drive today. I have to win this battle for a while.

My second greatest creation!

I did it, I really did it. I've never done something to at this scale of work. It took me many hours but I did it. I am so proud of this DIY project. My first DIY Day! I would be remiss in mentioning that this little beauty is my best DIY and that handsome man there, well, he just melts my heart and fortifies it all at the same time. Here is the plain old dirty six paned window I have been hauling with me every where since I found it a few years ago at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I had it done up before but that was a novice's attempt at crafty. I knew when I saw the other crafty DIY projects floating around the blogosphere that I would need to get serious in order to play with the big dogs. Good thing all you blogger peeps were also my inspiration. ;) With out further adue . Did I spell that right. I need to learn French. Not really. I'm so doing this on purpose. Ok , here it is..... Three French Memo Boards, one cork board, one pane for a grocery list and ...

DIY Day a bracelet and another Frenchh Memo Board

Image
This week, I have two DIY projects. This is a faux pearl bracelet I made last week for a friend. It is a three strand bracelet. I couldn't really say how I did it though. I can say it has taken me a while to get the nack of jewelery making. One thing I have sufficiently gotten the nack of is this French Memo Baord thing. Here is a magnetic one I made for my fridgerator out of left over scraps from the window from last week . For the month of September, all my DIYs will be giveways. Atleast one will be...well, a guest DIY and a giveway by my SIL over at Read Be Tween the Lines. My sister, Candy and Ladybugs has a picture in her side bar of her latest crosstiching (did I spell that right? My spell check didn't catch it but I don't think thats how it is spelled) project. Its pretty sweet. Check their blogs out on my side bar of my favorite blogs. I've found so many new favorite blogs, I need to update that list. Add that to my to do list. :) Update: Happy To Design...

A New Side Table Arrangement and Jewelery Give Away

Image
I did not think through planning blog posts on certain days when I had a Beach Trip planned. Shortly before we arrived at our rented beach house for the Labor Day Weekend, the owners cut off the Internet service. Bummer. Yes, I could have gone to the Dunkin' Doughnuts and gotten free Wi - Fi but that would have meant being pulled away from this cutie. Miss Wiggles does not like the bright sun (she is a fair skinned red head so I suppose its only natural) so she loved loved loved her sunglasses. Never once did she try to pull them off or attempted to touch them. I think 'cause she sees me where mine, she just knew. In the DIY blogging world, there have been so many neat table arrangements, and arranging every where else from bed sides, dressers , mantles, windows, etc. that I felt I should try my novice hand at artfully arranging my side table to the cozy leather chair in my library (aka, home office). So hear it is. I had this silver platter fit for a Thanksgiving Tur...
