still not healthy in 2010

so....we have been praying that 2010 would be our year for health...thus far the happiness part has worked out for us...not so much the health. I just added up all of our receipts for Rx, co-pays, dentist, medical, etc. and we spent over 6k in 2009. that is just RIDICULOUS!!!

Graham has had a double ear infection, sinus infection and stomach bug in just these 3 short weeks...I have an ear infection...and Chad has strep throat...yes, again. his third in less than 4 months....soooooo he is being referred to an ENT to have surgery scheduled to get his tonsils and possibly his adenoids taken out as well. Dr. said it's going to be a long recovery and that it's worse for him to go through as an adult. just peachy, huh?

Graham is going to see a urologist on the 22nd of this month to have the dr look at his testes again since they aren't staying dropped. it's been a big concern of ours and his pediatrician since he had his ultrasound a while back. if he needs surgery to have them pulled down, we would rather him have it sooner than later. So please keep him in your prayers.

on the bright side, we are getting the house together....slowly but surely. we just love our house and so proud to call it our home. we have met a couple of our neighbors and they seem so nice. i love our neighborhood. the drive into LR and back is still taking some getting used to but it's not too bad. i just don't enjoy filling up that Sequoia twice a week...but i have been doing a lot of running around and shopping for furniture so maybe once things settle down, i won't be spending 100.00 a week on gas for just the truck alone. I can't wait to start posting pictures of the house decorated.

I've missed all of my blog friends and I apologize that i haven't been commenting or even had much time to read your blogs...hopefully things will slow down soon and I can catch up. I miss you all and i hope you haven't forgotten about us!!!!


I'll leave you with a few pictures of graham for now.

These were taken with my iPhone so the quality isn't the greatest...but you get the picture...no pun intended. ;)
