lovely day

Today (umm yesterday) was looooong lol first off I didn't get to bed until almost 6am and we had to be up at 10 to start getting down to business (fed, dressed, and packed up to go). We went up to the armories to pick up Mike's Blues for the funeral at about 1pm, which was the most boring part of the day, sat there for 45mins before we got a hold of Mike's friend to be let in to get it, then spent all of five minutes signing it out OOHHHH WOW so much fun lmao but at least it was air conditioned! After that it was off to Wal Mart to get Nicky his new shoes, since he still has no braces we needed to break down and get him something to wear, he ended up picking out Diego closed toe sandles only after trying on like 20 other pairs that he absolutely did not like. So we got to spend almost an hour picking them out and then almost 20mins in line waiting to be checked out, Wal Mart is NOT the place to go on a Sunday afternoon lol I swear everyone had the same idea we did "It's Sunday, it wont be busy" HAHAHA yeah right! By the time we were on our way over to the IL's it was 3:45pm and she started supper right away because we were all tired and hungry, the boys had a blast Nicholas was crawling around perfecting his crawling and played outside in his little car. Joey and his Aunt played catch, cards, and with her old devil sticks so they all kept pretty busy and had a lot of fun. Joey did seem to do a bit too much running around and even with the extra carbs ended up going LO, the funny part is that when I'm around I usually don't bring his glucagon kit with us but for some reason I grabbed it on the way out the door today so after a shot in the butt he was good to go after 15mins and didn't need another hospital trip like he had his last day of school. Nicholas also had some issues nearing the end of our visit, his muscles started to lock up really bad, you could see that they were rock hard and his legs were really sore so he got a nice long massage and some advil tonight so he's happy now. He was also a little piggy during dinner he ate as much lasagna as all the adults did and was STILL hungry so he ate again as soon as we got home. Matthew slept most of the day lol even though most of it he was feeding so I couldn't do much, so I am thankful my IL's spent all afternoon playing with the boys. They are so wiped out that they all fell asleep by 10:30pm and are still sleeping lol on the downside I am still wide awake for some reason I can not sleep at all tonight no matter how hard I try and we have to be up early again tomorrow...coffee will be my friend! Hopefully we'll find out tomorrow if Mike is coming home for sure or not, they still haven't made up their minds on if they can spare him for a day or not, I'm really hoping they do let him come home because he has our insurance card and I need it for Nicholas's dental appointment next week.

Anyhoo I should be going now and try to get some sleep....or at least finish cleaning up the house lol it's surprising how much of a mess those boys can make even when they spend almost the whole day out!
