Okay. I was supposed to host a play group today at my house but not one of the moms or their kids showed up. I am a little bummed out and Nate was too.
Nana made his day better by coming to get him and bringing him to the library with her.
One good thing out of all of it though is that my house is clean, every room except for my bedroom that is, I was just keeping that door shut.
Well, now Jackie and I will spend some quality time together, and maybe I will get some yard work done later this afternoon if it is not too hot.

Allergic reaction
Jackie is allergic or at least sensitive to blueberries. Her favorite fruit of course.
Jackie and I spent the morning at the hospital yesterday after having an allergic reaction to blueberries. We got to take a trip in the ambulance to the hospital which I called(after Michael told me too of course) just in case she got any horrible symptoms while getting there. She was so good it was scary.
She had asked for them for breakfast and almost immediately after eating them was covered in hives, luckily she never had any breathing problems, but it was a little scary to say the least. I am going to call our primary on Monday to see about getting her seen by an allergist to see if she can be tested. I am glad it is something so easy to avoid but man can't one of my poor kids not have an allergic reaction to some sort of food.
No more blueberries for Jackie poor thing.

AUGGH... Nate
Nate is driving me up a wall lately. He keeps blaming things on his sister or even the dog when I know he has done it, whatever IT happens to be at that exact moment. Pestering me when I have told him just one minute, etc. Not following directions and just all out testing me. He is driving me BONKERS.
I am getting to the point where I am going to have him in a timeout for most of the day soon. I have taken things away but it does not seem to be fazing him, unless it is video games and the computer. I think I will have to get rid of his games soon.
I am going to register him for some of the library programs tomorrow. They are having Jackson Gillman there who is supposed to be a "human chameleon" to start the summer reading program.
I also want to get our little pool set up so that we can enjoy the outdoors a little more. Although we went to the playground for about an hour yesterday and to Peaceful Meadows in Whitman today as well with the MOMS club.
I am hoping that having some things planned will keep him more content. He is SOOO busy it is hard to keep him entertained. I just need 5 -10 minutes to myself sometimes. It could just be that this is the week before my monthly visitor, but I don't think so.

I'm back
Well it has been a crazy few weeks here. Whitney went home on Saturday, Nate and I brought her to the airport, and because she was a minor got to go to the gate with her while whe waitedfor her plane. Nate had a great time crawling through the chairs while we waited until he made some friends who were watching a DVD. I had a really good time with her. She is such an easy kid to be with. We brought her to meet her biological father for dinner on Friday night in Sagamore. We had met earlier in the week for breakfast and an hour or so where she visited. She wanted to meet him and form her own opinion of him. She has not seen him since she was three or four. She had a good time. I don't think he has changed much.
Went down to the ocean club where m's parents own a timeshare for a couple of days last week, spent them both on the beach, where Nate would have spent the whole day if he could have. Whitney picked up a million shells which she was going to make into a necklace. Nate learned to ride the waves on his wave board. I actually got in the ocean, it wasn't bad after a little while. The pool was much warmer.
The kids and I are off to a MOM's Club picnic at Nelson park today for lunch. Michael is working every day this week and we are going to the airshow on Sunday at Quonset point with Nate and M's dad. Jackie will stay with Nana when we go, im sure a couple more years and she will be going too. I horn in every year, it is supposed to be a guys thing but I love going.
Michael turned 30 yesterday we had his parents and brother here for dinner. It was a nice night, Michael was not feeling all that hot though so he did not go to cards, we both went to bed early, before 930p. He does not want to be sick on Sunday I guess and I figured why not.
Looking forward to summer.

Family here visiting
Well I have not posted in FOREVER.
My family is here visiting it has been a really nice weekend. Although Nate has been a little crazy. He has been having temper tantrums for the past week or so that are just extreme. I am getting so frustrated with him they take about 20 minutes to get him to even calm down. He had 2 at school on Friday enough that his teacher had to have me call her. I am about at the end of my patience. Although I wonder if it is the stress of having my family here because his cousins are both visiting as well as my parents so we will see after things calm down.
We now have 2 new doors on the house our rear slider has finally been replaced. I now just have to stain the interior of it so that I can put the screen on. My front door has also been replaced. Wow it is really nice to have new doors, that actually open.
Alright time for bed for me will attempt to post more soon.
