Stupid Computer!!

I think our computer is finally on it's last leg! But we have gotten lots of good use out of it so I can't complain too much. It is the computer Brad and I bought after we got married. Not right after but you know what I mean, it's been a long time! We've been looking at laptops and are going to have to buy one soon. Until then, sometimes I can get on the computer, sometimes I can't.
The weather today has been horrible. I don't think it has quit raining. We were up early this morning, like always. Ryan woke up at 6:30 but Brad made him stay in bed. He did eventually fall back asleep, until 7:30. I have been wanting to go to a Hobby Lobby that opened uo by the mall so we decided to make a morning of it. We did a little shopping, ate at Logans (for the bread!!) and got a few things at Walmart then headed home. Ryan started running a fever while we were out. You could tell he just didn't feel good. I am sure he caught whatever Hannah had. She is better, BTW. He kept saying he was going to throw up while we were in walmart. We had just got done eating lunch so I knew it would be a juicy one if he did! I got a big baggie from one of their cleaning stations and told him if he needed to throw up he had to do it in there! He never did. We had to take a potty break towards the end of the trip and when Hannah and I went into the bathroom there was a mom holding her screaming son. He was soaking wet and red all over. He was around Ryan's age. Everyone kept walking by looking at her but no one offered her any help so after Hannah came out of the stall and was ready to wash her hands I asked the mom if she needed help with anything. She said that he had sprayed LYSOL in his eyes and she was trying to flush them out. I asked her if she had called the number on the can and she said she did. I guess they told her to flush them out for like 20 minutes. Try doing that with a screaming 2 yr old in a walmart bathroom!! She asked me if I could hold his legs. She had him laying on the little ledge above the sinks and was using his sippy cup to get water and dump it in his eyes. She also said she is a nurse so I felt a little better. She was sooooo calm. I would have been crying like crazy if that was my son!! I was tearing up while I was standing there holding his little legs, listening to him scream and seeing how big and swollen his eyes were. By this time there were like 3 walmart people in there staring at us and hannah was standing there seeing all this so I asked one of the ladies if they could hold his legs so Hannah and I could go. I felt bad leaving but Brad and Ryan were waiting on us and I knew Ryan wasn't feeling good. I was a little shaken up after that. The poor guy. Anyway, so we went home and hung out for the rest of the evening. I had to go up to the church to make copies for SS and do some last minute stuff but other than that, we didn't do much this evening. Now I am about ready for bed. Thanks for listening and say a prayer for that little boy. I bet his eyes are going to be hurting for awhile.

Long day....

Today was a terribly long day! Hannah has been having a fever off and on since Monday. She has also been complaining of a headache a lot since then and yesterday she cried because her stomach was hurting so bad. So this morning when she woke up with a temp of 102.8, I called the dr. (I told her first thing that if she stayed home, there was going to be no playing or going outside because if you are too sick to be at school, you are too sick to play.) Of course they said to bring her in but I already knew what was going to happen. THey do it to me all the time. They told me she has a virus (duh!!) and that if she still is having a fever over the next couple of days, to bring her back in. We were in the dr office almost 2 hours just for them to say that. I had Ryan with us too and he was being a nightmare, like always. He kept trying to sit on the dr stool (circle seat with the wheels), open the cabinet doors, rip the white paper that lays over the exam table. So I made him sit in a chair next to me. He screamed the entire time "I want down", "I want to go home" and he kept getting down so I had to keep puting him back in the chair, which only made the screaming worse. And spankings didn't help. It is so hard to be consistent and not just give in when he is acting like that. But I didn't, and I never do. When is he going to learn that screaming and continually disobeying won't help?! It didn't take Hannah that long!! So that was a very long and hard visit. By the time we left there it was time to eat so we went thru the drive thru at McD's and taco Bell (for me of course) and went home to eat. Neither one of them ate very good. Hannah wanted to put her food in the frig and go to bed. That was fine with me. So I put Ryan down shortly after that. But he never went to sleep. I went in there multiple times and put him back in bed but after 2 hours I let him get up. I was ready to wake Hannah up so I knew he would not be able to stay in there any longer. He continued his mean-ness for the rest of the afternoon too. He kept hitting Hannah or taking her pillows (she had a bed made on the couch) or just doing things out of pure spite. So I eventually made him go to bed again. He did go to sleep after awhile that time. When I went in to wake him up before supper his pull up was on inside out! The goofy kid took it off for some reason and put it back on inside out! I just can't help but laugh! At least he put it back on, even if the wet side was out! So, I'll have to do another load of laundry in the morning!! After we ate we went outside so Ryan could burn off some of that bad energy! Daddy worked late, like every day this week. Then it was bath time and bed time!
On a good note, I discovered Hannah has two loose teeth!! The two middle incisors on the bottom. They are both very wiggly. I noticed while I was brushing her teeth this morning. At first I kinda freaked out. I asked her if she got hit in the head with something. She said "I don't think so". Then it hit me! This is all normal! She is constantly pressing her tongue against them. I pulled on them with a tissue once but they aren't quite ready! I have been debating on whether to mention the tooth fairy or not. I think I am going to because we don't do the easter bunny, Santa or any of the other things like that. I guess we can at least do the tooth fairy! I just can't believe it is time for her to loose baby teeth. That is just one more thing that makes me realize she isn't a baby anymore.....I am sad but I am proud of her! Well, I think that is all for now. I sure hope tomorrow goes better thant oday!
