Where did the time go??

As I sat here reading up on all of you, I realized that it has been TWO weeks since I blogged. It seems like it was just yesterday...

Let me catch you up. Hmmm...we had a little party for Ellie at Shawna's house on the 6th. It was wonderful spending time with the family. The women got to go out and do a little shopping without the kiddos. BIG treat for me! The next night, the girlies spent the night with David and Kelly (cam's parents) for the first time. They did great and had a ball watching David shake his booty with the Santa toy that did the same. Ellie thought it was great fun to push the button on the toy and then turn to watch David dance. Hilarious! While they were having fun there, Cameron and I were at a meeting for our China trip. Learned some interesting things. eek!! First, no utensils. Chop Sticks only. I stink at those. Seriously. I have tried. So I guess I will be losing some weight! lol AND the potties aren't exactly what we are used to. I know I should have thought about these things, but come on. I suppose I take the little things for granted. I am going to have to squat over a hole (and let me remind you that balance is not a strong suit for me) in a bathroom that is unisex. Let's just hope I can time it without a man inside when I really gotta go! There was a lot more fun little things we learned, but those stick out to me...

Sunday, I picked up my Mama in Cisco so she could come help me. Faith went to the pediatric internologist and I went to the dentist twice.I got Faith's results yesterday and her bloodwork was abnormal. :( There is a bleed somewhere so when we get back in January, she will have a colonoscopy and some other test done. They are looking for Krohn's diesease and/or anything else that may cause the bleeding. Such as an allergy or intolerance. Which my cousin doctor told me was the case. And I didn't listen. But Jen, if this proves you are right with a simple muscle test, I am forever ruling out these doctors and choosing you! Just letting you know. So, I am nervous. But ready to get a diagnosis. Then, on Thursday morning I had a root canal done on the same tooth for the second time. Infection. At a specialist. Not fun at Christmas time. Then, off to San Angelo I went! I went to two parties at Jaymie's house and spent some time with the family, then returned home on Sunday. That brings us to now. I am trying so hard to finish my Christmas cards. Sorry they are late. You may get them in January. lol I have a party tonight, tomorrow night, then nothingness. Well, homework for China. What is that about?!! Geez. You'd think we would need to be prepared or something. SO there you go. Caught up. And I am not proofing this. I know the thoughts and memories are random, but try your best to decipher what I meant!
