lorelei's (my) Birthday

 
Eliza is busted taking the chocolate off my yummy torte cake

 

Yay im finally up to date in our family blog now . Sunday i had my birthday and turned ..well we dont need to talk about that. You are only as old as you act or feel right :) I had a nice day the kids gave me breakfast in bed and we went to church had Levi's blessing. Then mum made me a beautiful lamb roast and we had a family dinner oh it was so yum . Becasue my birthday was on sunday , the day before Hans suprised me dropped me off at our shopping centre gave me a card and said open when you cross the road to the shops. So i left the fam walked into the shops about to open my card.. and my best friend Ange was there and said "Suprise".My wonderful husband Hans had planned the day for me to have Time out from the kids and house etc and gave me money to go shopping with ange...something we have not done for a looooong time. It was so nice and then we went to dinner as well. I'm a much nicer mum and wife with a little "time out" .
It was a great birthday i was very spoilt with my presents too.

6 week apart cousins

 
 

elizas viist to Nuerologist

 
 
 

Well Eliza had another convulsion about a week and a half ago , we think well we are pretty sure . it was the first one we had not been right there with her for . Alicia just came out to us as said Eliza is making funny noises in her bed, so went to check and it looked like she was coming out of another one. we know the symptoms pretty well as this will make her 14th one. this time with a temp of 36 degrees which is no temp at all right
Anyways we had a visit scheduled for the Nuerologist the following day , they think she is borderline epileptic and asked us if we wanted to try her on medecine for epilepsy . Which would mean twice a day and with some not so good side effects. Hans and i decided not to do the medecine just yet and wait to see if she grows out of it or if she does have more without temp we will consider it.
I do worry about Eliza and wonder if its something else , we have more tests coming up for her i wish we would get answers . It doesnt matter how many times i see her have a convulsion it still is scary to watch and starts me worrying all over again.
Well these pics were taken after the nuerologist we got her a treat i did not realise it was such a big cupcake till i saw it against her little face. But seriously she does not look sick at all does she. Just a cheeky 3 yr old with a huge cupcake :)

Tyler and Grover

 

It was Tylers turn to take home Grover this week from pre-school and look after him all week. He was so excited and did a good job. He was so cute one night he set up Grover in a sleeping bag next to his bed , and when we went to check on him in the night. Tyler was on the floor asleep and Grover was in his bed. He gave up his bed for Grover what a good friend.
Tyler has just started playing with our neighbour Patch (patrick) Its so good to see him have a boy to play with since he always seems to be surrounded by girls. They were playing one day and dressed up as dads and patchs mum asked them so are you going to work now becasue your dads and they said "no we are going to play kill the zombies" then they asked patches mum to be a zombie :)
OOps back to Grover ..we give him back to pre-school tomorrow but Tyler had a fun week with him here

tylers injury

 
 
 

Tyler and all the primary kids play outside after church while they are waiting for us parents to all stop talking i think . Well there are some rocks in the garden and i guess this sunday a few of the boys were throwing them. Well Tylers friend M threw the rock and it accidently hit Tyler in the middle of his forehead. I was actually putting Levi in the car and all i hear is tyler screaming with blood dripping down his face.. I was scared it was his mouth and teeth but lucky just his forehead. Well he was pretty brave and only had to have the magic glue no stitches.
His friend M was so sorry and came the next day with a card and yummy baked ricotta cheesecake.
Boys will be boys i guess. Im sure that is just one of the many injuries tyler will have growing up .

family on blessing day

 

I love this picture of the family , it is hard enough to get everyone together for a photo and then it started to rain . It was so funny and Ange who was taking the photos just kept snapping the best pics are not always the posed ones i think.
