Still In Sever Pain A Week Later

This past Friday (6/17/2016), Ry is one week post operation.  I will give you a low down of our past since last updating you guys when she was freshly hours after surgery.

Friday night 6/10

Like stated in my previous post Ry was in some serious pain and we had went back to my parents.  We were able to keep her hydrated because she knew if it dried up it could cause bleeding. That and it hurt extremely bad.  She fell asleep or shall I say dosed off while I went to Walmart to grab some ibuprofen. Once I got back and woke her up to take her meds. My mom and I both had ramen noodles and well I took some from my bowl and a pair of kitchen cutting scissors and finely chopped some noodles up for her and she ate half of that. Shortly after we went to bed, needless to say I fell asleep. She kept dosing off and my mom got up about two to use the bathroom woke her up to make sure she needed to drink and At this point she needed another dose of her pain meds. Then she pretty much dosed off and on. My dad leaves for work about 7 and she said I swear momma papa looked in the room not realizing I was awake but looked at me like I was crazy. Shortly thereafter she woke me up wanting more meds and it was then she slept for a solid three hours without interruptions, which all in all was what she needed.

Saturday 6/11

As expected she was still in extreme pain and as long as she had the medication in her she done well. She ate a biscuit. Mainly the inside of the biscuit! It seems at night is when it gets extremely painful for her.

Sunday 6/12- Monday 6/13
These two days were pretty much the same except the factor part that Monday after Brayden's game and we picked her up from my sisters. She sneezed. Anyone that has ever had a tonsillectomy knows that sneezing is the most horrible part of it all!  Well this sneeze helped her out a little bit but believe hurt her too. She did have a white scab back there and when she sneezed it busted. However, that allowing then she felt relief on the back of her throat. But since then she has experienced extreme jaw pain. 

Tuesday 6/14- Friday 6/17
So far since about Tuesday all that she has experienced is the jaw pain. Which honestly gets extremely intense. Like she wakes up every morning and pretty much has to get a dose of her pain medicine or Tylenol or Motrin before continuing the day.  Besides that she has now gotten wear pretty much she can eat.

Like today Monday 6/20 she I sitting watching Marley and Me eating a ham sandwich with no crust. 

I must say that I am extremely proud of her because she has done extremely well considering the circumstances.

Well folks that's all for an update. I am not feeling all that great today. Well let me take that back I feel fine I am just experiencing nerve pain in my hip and I am extremely tired today! :(

I do however have semi exciting news that I want to share later on but right now I am just waiting for more confirmation! :)

See y'all later.

OH Where Oh Where Have I Been?

On August 19th was the last time that I posted a blog entry. OH MY, where have I been.  I know in that I would say come back tomorrow to find out why we are so busy.

Needless to say I never came back until now. I am going to fill you in why not only starting in September but actually as soon as school starts why we are so busy.

August is the month that my friend and I go to Rodeo. Not only do we go to Rodeo but that's when school starts back.  You would think that during the summer we would be busy and at times we are. However, the school year especially fall is when we are the busiest.  Especially starting September.  September 8th actually this year is when Ry's dance year started. (6th year baby!!!!) Not only that but she is at that point in her life in school where she can start playing little league volleyball, cheer leading, and etc. This year she chose volleyball. I mean you can't necessarily beat $20 dollars to play for a few months. Their games didn't actually start until September 19th and they began practices the last week or so of August. So on top of Dance on Mondays for almost 2 hours. She has Volleyball on Tuesday (practices) and Games on Saturday morning. (yes you read that right, on Saturday Mornings.) We also for both kids have had parent teachers conferences already. However, now we have hit the month of October. Tomorrow is October 1st and for us this is when the end of the year becomes one hell of a time.  October especially, are you ready for this??? October 10th, Ryleigh Birthday, October 20th, My dad's birthday, October 24 is a good friends birthday, October 25 is Ken's birthday, and October 26th is my sisters birthday. OY what was I thinking being friends with people in October. HEHE love them anyways.  So from the month of October until December we are short on money always. Between birthdays, trying to save for black friday, as well as buying Christmas in between on top of regular bills. (Speaking of which Ken gets paid tonight and need to budget out bills this week.)  Needless to say that since my daughter is turning 10 and will be in double digits {LORD HELP ME} we decided to throw her a party. She chose the place and mommy and daddy have paid.

Now on to some exciting news. I am going to start VLOGing I feel this is a way for me to blog and be able to capture everything in my children's lives. As well as talking about random things such as you know LIFE!

I only have one VLOG up as of now. I mean I just started.
