Surgery

Since my card reader isn't working I can't post any pictures so I will just have to tell you what's been going on. Kaia has this thing for horses. She calls them neigh neighs. We got her a stuffed horse at the St. Jude's benefit my parents do in May. Ever since then she has been obsessed. Mike got her a stick horse at the dollar store the other day and it has been everywhere with her. I had completely forgotten about the horse Grandma Annette and Papa Gary got Jercie for Christmas one year. Until the other day. I dug it out of my closet and gave it to Kaia. She rode it for like an hour nonstop. She loves it. She is also talking a lot more. She is attached to Daddy anytime he is home.
We got our flu shots on Friday. Well everybody but Mike, he doesn't believe in them. The kids also got their H1N1 shots. On Friday night Blaze started getting a fever. He had one until this morning and now he's coughing. I am still hoping it's just from the shot. I guess if he's not better by tomorrow I will take him in.
Jercie's birthday is coming up next Wednesday. We got her a new bike. Mike couldn't wait to give it to her so she's already ridden it up and down the sidewalk and gotten a flat tire. Gotta love puncture weeds. My nephew Alexander is having surgery on her birthday at Primary Children's so we are going to take all the kids to the zoo on Tuesday. It will be good to see everybody.
I went to the doctor yesterday and scheduled a minor surgery for the 25th. Yes, that is the day before Thanksgiving. It was the best time for us to do it though with Mike's schedule. And they only do surgeries on Wednesday. I will be having an endometrial ablation. I am a little scared and a little sad about it. This means that any chance of me ever having a baby again is lost. I'm okay with it really, but it's sad all the same. As long as it fixes the problem. My only other option is a hysterectomy and I absolutely don't want to do that!
Mike has mostly just been working. If he's not at the mine he's doing one side job or another. It will be nice since Christmas is coming soon. In fact he has to go rough one of the guys up today that he did a job for. He was supposed to get paid a week ago and we haven't heard from them. Hopefully they pay soon.
So there is the update on us.
