"I've got no strings.......there are no strings on me!"


Ok, well I only have one string left (my feeding tube). I took out my picc line (my IV) this morning with permission from my doctor. I've only used it in the past week and a half for sleeping medication. But I've managed to switch to sleeping medication in the pill form. Yes, I admit it-- I'm currently dependent on sleeping meds, but in the words of my doctor "Cambrie, after all that we've got through so far-- who cares???!!!" Hopefully I'll be wheening myself of of them soon as I don't like to be an addict. Anywho-- I can now take a shower like a somewhat normal person! and little boys can stop asking me "what happened to your arm?"

I'm SO GLAD you're improving. I worry about you a lot kiddo. How's the umbilical cord doing? I know everyone was worried at the start about the dangers of having a feeding tube into your gizzard.

Just as it's a womans prerogative to change her mind, it's a little boy's prerogative to ask about anything that _could_ be gross.

Hopefully I'll be getting the feeding tube out in a week or two. We are wheening me off. They say it will get pretty uncomfortable in about a month of I don't have it out yet.
Oh, and Jr. kicked me for the first time last night. He's now letting me know he's alive and in there.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
