It's nights like these where I love my job.....Owen and I are cuddling before bed and I have my computer out trying to get some work done. Typing with one hand and giving my boy a back scratch with my other hand......it doesn't get much better then this! Don't get me wrong.....there are plenty of times where it is very hard to separate home and work life while working from home, but I wouldn't trade it for anything! I love being home with my boys! LOVE IT! I know that I am very blessed to have such a wonderful opportunity and a great company who trusts the work that I do from home....SO blessed!Monday, March 7, 2011

WYATT IS WALKING!
Just shy of 10 months Wyatt is a little walker! He is so stinking cute all of the time. This particular day he walked over to his/Owen's chair and crawled right up in it and started smiling and was just having a blast!
Here is our adorable little stinker clapping! He really is a very happy baby.....we are SO blessed at how happy and content he is! Love this child!

Pine Car Derby 2011
Another year for Owen at Cornerstone's Pine Car Derby race. This year Owen was a little more involved and I hope that each year in the future will be more and more exciting for him. Kris helped him this year with the actual car shaping/molding or whatever you want to call it, however Owen painted the car all by himself and put on a bunch of police stickers/decals. He said it was his police racer car. He did a great job! We were proud! Below is a picture of Owen getting his medal (all kids in his age group get medals, but hey he still thought it was pretty cool!)
Owen's car is the third car in from the left, it is yellow with all of the stickers on it.....not bad for a 3 year old, and yes he decorated it all by himself.

Wyatt loves the dishwasher!
Without fail every time I either load or unload the dishwasher Wyatt is crawling over as fast as he can to try to get in it. I think this particular day I finished unloading the dishwasher and then ran the trash outside and when I came back Wyatt was literally in the dishwasher.....never a dull moment at our house!

An afternoon at GG's
We were all tired, however my mother-in-law was the lucky one who scored some nap time with Wyatt man.....a nap and a good cuddle, what is better then that?
Owen had fun playing with all of GG's blocks. He built a HUGE tower and was so excited that he could keep on adding to the tower without it falling down.......but.......
Grammy was a bit skeptical at how high the tower was going to get before falling down so she sheltered Wyatt so that he wouldn't get hit by any blocks......I think that this was the final block before the tower collapsed....and no Wyatt didn't get hit by any blocks but he didn't like the noise the falling tower made and started crying hysterically. Poor boy!
GG is doing a lot better....she was up and walking a little without her walker. She has good days and bad days but thankfully Kris' aunt is in town for the week to help take care of her and get her up and running. All in all we had a very nice visit today!

Another appt
Went to the rheum today for a follow up visit and again got my prednisone increased.....they just aren't happy that I am still having flairs every time I decrease the steroids......also tomorrow night I will jump a dose of my methotrexate, which means that after tomorrow I will be on the full dose of that med....the hope is to get me on the full dose ASAP and then hopefully decrease my steroids once and for all as long as my symptoms/pain are managed and controlled on the plaquenil and methotrexate.
I am about to take my first sleeping pill....the doctor is hoping that this will help my body heal and I will be more refreshed and have more energy as a result.....I am kind of excited to finally get a good nights sleep.
FUNNY STORY ALERT!!
I took both boys with me to my appointment today...it was a big mistake but they were both truly wonderful and well behaved considering how boring it was waiting and waiting and waiting.....
while checking out the girl at the desk couldn't figure out what my diagnosis code was. After being in the office for about 2 1/2 hours, I wanted to leave and the boys had had enough...so finally after waiting patiently for a few minutes I politely (with probably a rather annoyed look on my face) asked if it was too much trouble to look up my last visit and see what I was billed for. She said she was almost done when all of a sudden Wyatt just started crying hysterically. I turned to him trying to find out what was the matter and he had these HUGE crocodile tears streaming down his face. An older African American man was about three feet away from him and looked up at me and said "Is this the first time he has seen a black guy? I just winked at him!"
I was mortified!! and embarrassed!! Everyone in the office was laughing. Thankfully the guy felt bad for making him cry.....needless to say we high-tailed it out of there!
Gosh, you would think that my kid would act more civilized! :o) Poor Wyatt, so scared!!
