Updates.

Betty: Chris came home late tuesday night. Very tired and red eyed. Betty had minimal improvement where her left eye and her tongue were moving just a little bit. That is no longer happening right now. All "improvement" has stopped. The respirator is still breathing 100% for her. The 02 was at 100% and was down to 40% which is good. I am not sure if that is continued improvement right now. She will be getting dialysis started. Hopefully that will start getting the bad stuff out of her body. She is no longer on paralytic medication and has not been on it in over a week so she should have been coming out of her "coma" state. She was also on Verced which I think they have stopped as well and still, she is in the condition she is in. So, we still sit and wait to see what they are going to decide. Chris said the burn unit is really really bad. Do not accidentally look in to any of the rooms on the way out the door because it is REALLY bad. So, we dont know what is going to happen.

Chris: We are waiting for the Chief results to come out. I do not think he made it. HE doesnt think he made it. So, we shall be pleasantly surprised if he did make it. He is struggling with his Step mom being in the condition that she is in. He woke himself up when he started falling asleep the other night because he thought he heard Betty say his name.

Me: My knees hurt so badly. SO badly. Last night I Was nearly in tears saying I would rather have another C section on the kitchen floor RIGHT now. I put ice on them and after that was when horror struck my knees. It was AWFUL! I just keep taking motrin. I might have to cave and take the naproxen. I just wish there was something else I could take. Today they were not so bad when I woke up. Life with 4 kids, one being an infant... doesnt help them AT ALL. I am in misery. The heating pad works pretty good for a temporary fix. I dont know what I am going to do about this. IT IS HORRIBLE. It doesnt seem to be improving AT ALL.. it seems to be getting WORSE! I stink at being a mom right now. I am the worst mom right now.

The Girls: Need their momma to get better. Seriously. I feel like I dont even know them the past couple of days. Kiley even drew on the walls with crayon last night. And peed the bed... what the heck. The girls bicker incessantly. IT is making me batty.

CJ: Can pull himself up on things. When he tips over and bonks his noggin he CRIEEESSSS like nothing I have ever heard before! Girl babies are more tough than boy babies! LOL! HE was laying on the floor and sat himself up. So, the end is near for me! LOL! He loves to eat real food and doesnt like the baby food so much. His favorite are the Gerber Crunchies. He could eat a whole can of those in one sitting if I let him!

Those are our brief updates. My knees are going to fall off....

OMG, CJ is pulling himself up already! Boy I'm kind of glad my CJ is behind ;). They grow too fast don't they. My girls are constantly fighting too. The school year can't start up again soon enough ;).
