Busy Weekend!! (surgery/birthday and photos)

It was a crazy past week, Hayden has his surgery on this past Thursday. I was working when he went in for surgery. Which was very difficult for me. I did get there, a couple of minutes after he woke up. He was not happy that he had all the IVs in him. Once the nurse came out to take them out, he started to calm down. He was on the crib bed for the hospital just moving all around, when he was looking all over, I wasn't worried I knew that he was doing better. Erik and I brought him home, he took a nice long nap, and so did we. We were very tired. We had Friday off too. Erik ended up wanting to go out and get Hayden's gifts for his birthday. So, we went out and did that. We ran a couple of errands. I decided to spend the night at my Mom and Dad's. Mom called in the afternoon to see how Hayden was doing. I decided since his birthday party was at their house. Why not spend the night. ( I love going to my parents house!) We hung out, and Hayden was really active. He started to crawl and really pull himself up on furniture. So, maybe the anal fistula he had was bothering him and holding him back, who knows? But, that night Mom and I made the two cakes for his birthday. So, they had time

Hayden's birthday: It was a great day!Hayden was happy and in a good mood. We started getting the frosting made for the cakes, and decorating it. It was a blast. Erik got there and started making the Chili. His Dad was there (Mark) His brother Devin and his boyfriend Brad. His Mom was there. And of course my parents. It was a nice intimate gathering, The party started a little late. The rest of the gang didn't get there till 5:00 the party was suppose to start at 4pm. But, it worked out alright. The chili was a success. And the cakes were awesome! What was so great, after singing Happy Birthday to Hayden. He right away put his face in the cake, then he started digging into it. We gave him his bath and then we opened presents. Hayden got allot of great stuff. The big shocker gift of the night was 1,000 from his grandpa Heule for his school fund. It blew me away! We had cake after he went to bed. I'm surprised he even fell asleep since he was on a sugar high from all the cake and frosting. Then we chatted all together. Then Erik and I stayed behind for a bit, talking to my parents. We then went home around 11 and got home around 12 .

The next day was Pictures, Hayden's and family photos. We were running behind. But, we got there and waited. Hayden seemed like he was in a good mood. But, he didn't smile for many of the photos. It's like he got infront of the camera and were holding him it was really intense. But, when he had a couple of pictures by himself. He did great! I can't wait to see the photos. We have alot of good ones still. He's growing so fast. I can't believe he's already 1. And, now were discussing on when to try for our next one. The debate isn't too bad. It looks like Erik back on board with having another. He's of course worried about money. But, I think in two years we will be in better shape. Other then that I have all the paperwork approved for FMLA for his past surgery and for the asthma complications. I feel relieved to know that I have the protection if something were to happen. In other news my insurance is going up. I'm going to have a deductible for the first time. I haven't had one. It's partially because of the health reform. I try to not get to passionate about it.

I will be taking another semester of school. I don't know how I will do it. But, I must keep moving forward. I really hope that I can get at least a C in Macroeconomics and a B in Applications. I guess I'll find out very soon. I will have to know if I will drop the class the beginning of December. Next up is Hayden's 1 year appointment and we have a Prediatrician for him for him now. YAY!! I have a 1/2 day! Hopefully I can get some homework done.And, oh he had his allergy test done, He was no allergies to speak of to cat dander especially or milk even!! I'm so happy!! I do feel slowly I'm getting things accomplished. I will have to do more things tonight, this weekend. Theirs always something to do. But, I really have to get moving. I'm just taking to take one thing at a time.

A Long update...

It's been a while since I've wrote anything. I've just been a little busy with things. Ok so the mystery is finally solved. We know know what Hayden has on his bottom. It's called: Anal Fistula. He will need to have surgery. And, it's already scheduled for the 21st. The one problem, it's looking more like I will have to take an occurence. This is a direct quote from my boss. I love her to dealth. But, she is a supervisior after all, she has to have the conflict of caring and not caring. Anyways, the surgeon is only available Thursdays so naturally. I can't control that I can't get any other day. She said that I will try to get you the time off but I don't know if that will happen so you will probobley have to take and occurence. I only get 6 a year. And i'm at 4 right now. I asked her ok so I take one but what happens if I get sick. My job is on the line then. So, I put in for FMLA, we will see how that goes I had to do that with Hayden's asthma as well, to protect myself since the weather is changing.
Next thing is that school is been in session for 7 weeks now. I have a concern with Macroecomincs, It's getting harder and harder to understand. Their's all these graphs and alegbra. That it's making much sense to me. ANd I have another test on Tuesday. I scored a 66% on my last one. Ugh... now I'm at around 70% for the class. I'm hoping to pass this by atleast that. I really don't want to get a D. Or have to drop the course. I learned a little bit more about how it would work if I dropped a course and such. Anyways, that would take more time to explain. The thing is that between Erik going to school and me, it's been quite a challenge to get anything done. I infact had a mini breakdown a couple of days ago. My Mom came over (thank god) we talked about Erik mostly. I was swearing up a storm I was so upset. So, I decided to wear my contacts for work. And I really had a headache in the afternoon and really wanted to take them out thinking that I didn't have them in my purse, and assuming I left them home I popped some ibuofen and waited till I got home. I couldn't wait to put my glasses on when i got home. I started to freak out thinking where did they go and started to worry because I couldn't wear my contacts anymore and that I needed my glasses. It shows how much I rely on my glasses these days anyways after searching all over the house thinking I was loosing my mind, I dumped out my whole purse on the floor and there was the case, and their were my glasses. I completly broke down crying into my Mom's arms. I was so upset.
The other drama that's know been resolved but was a headache before. Ok so Hayden's birthday celebration was planned for October 23rd the day he was born. So, I told my mother in law and sister in law last Wednesday. Only to find out that my sister in law went to Erik and asked for the party to be postponed. I told her that we couldn't do that. And Erik and I had this huge disagreement because he didn't think it was a big deal. Now, suddenly he agrees that his birthday should be on his actual birthday.
Getting back to Hayden's thing, he will finally be seeing a Pedatrics doctor, YAY!!! It was because of the anal Fistuala that he finally agrees it's time to see one that specializes in it. Ok finally he see's that. I'm relieved. I just wish he would value my opioion a little more. Ok, so I may be a new mother. But, I do know some things I think.
Besides that I think I've covered everything right now. Oh, I was shocked to see this last night, Erik and I have paid out 19,000 thousands for our bankruptcy we are approaching 3 1/2 years. I can't wait till were all done with it!
