Makeover

I took the girls to Nordstroms make over week and we all got our make up done. I really love the girls make up the best. Although I am always my own worst critic.hollie looked fantastic in her purple eye shadow. I really hope my girls make themselves a priority in life. I told them throughout this experience that they are worth the effort and the time. I want them to always take a good hour to make themselves feel good. A run or trip to the hair salon. Time to paint their nails. I wish I would have modeled this behavior more when they were little. My time was always sacrificed so I could squeeze in one more lesson. I do not want my children to do this for my grand children should I have any.

Love having girls they are just wonderful ! 

Frozen

Took Nate to see his first movie. I have just switched to a late night shift and needed a low energy activity. Nate sits well for long periods and was able to sit for this movie. He did not like how loud it was and held his ears until the movie began. The movie trailer made it seem that this was a movie about a snowman and reindeer. When actually it was about sisters, overcoming, and importance of love . Nate sat for the movie but this film had some definite slow spots. Lauren and Hollie went to see it awhile ago and Lauren loved it! Regardless Nate has been to his first movie theater and handled tge surround sound decently. I remain to be not much of a cartoon fan .

Kicking off Thom's 40th

Starting the count down to Thom's 40th with Poker last night at Jon's house. He stayed the night there due to the long drive and today he is going to the Seahawk playoff game. He had a great time got home around 8pm the next day. According to Aimie he and the kids Theo Georgia and Auggie all had a fun pillow fight with Thom until grandma Zbomnie broke it up.

First week of 2014

I spent the first 3 days of 2014 working long shifts with traumas and very sick kids at the hospital! Came home to a vomiting child Friday night . Gave this child life saving Zofran but during the medication administration got spray with his secretions and felt a drop hit my eye. This has happened once before and I would bet 100% I will be the next to go down. I was wrong. Tonight up at 0300 heard Nate moaning - gave another dose. Then 0500 Lauren in my room saying she had a stomach ache. I ask the child are you nauseated? She denies nausea and says possible cramps. Given our hx I give her some food and water then ibuprofen. Not even 2 seconds later she is vomiting every where. How does this child 16 yrs old not know the difference between nausea and cramps?  Spent the night pulling up the rug (at least it saved the carpet) cleaning the couch, and will be calling the carpet cleaners today. Forgot the best part Lauren loves soccer, she gets done vomiting and immediately with the next breath says I am going to soccer,both games. I say well if you feel that good you can clean up this mess, bleach the whole house, wash all Nates toys and set up the carpet cleaner. I don't know who she thought she was talking to me? telling me what she was going to do. I have half a mind not to give her the life saving zofran but don't want to continue cleaning puke today! Bring on 2014 !
