Weekly update


Tuesday night we had Jarika's cheerleading banquet. It was a pretty small affair since the squad started with 20 members and ended with 10. Long story, not going into it. Jarika won the award for: Best Sound Effects. Sounds like a pretty good award for a cheerleader but since it was due to her unbelievably loud hiccups (which has also happened and church and Pastor Gary swore it was an Amen!), her disgusting burps and yes the flatulence. My child, the sound effects girl. For winning this award, she was given a can of Flarp (too funny, a fart in a cup) and a little megaphone that is really annoying. I must say that this has been the worst year in Jarika's cheerleading life that has been ongoing since the age of five. I am so thankful that this season is over and we can put all of the issues in the past and hopefully have an awesome year next year. Her senior year should be the best and I'm truly hoping it is!

Avery's first baseball practice of the spring season was cancelled due to rain on Tuesday but he did have it last night when the wind chill was below freezing. I would have taken pix, but the dedicated mom I am was sitting in her nice warm car reading Beth Moore! Shame on me, I know but there will be more practices when it's much warmer!

Addy had a cardiology check up yesterday. Her doc said that her EKG is improved from four months ago and her echo looked okay since she was screaming the entire time! She is usually an angel there, but she is definitely leary of scrubs since her hospital stay last month! I am happy that things look good and her ASD is so tiny that it won't need surgery. He did think her right side of her aorta, is a little enlarged, but nothing too worry about since it may have just been the angle but he'll check it again in four months. So good news! Her pulse ox was a little low but still above 90 so no alarm there either, thank goodness! I didn't take pix at the appointment since she was so hacked off, but here are the way home pix!

These are just pix of her today because she is so darn cute playing Pat-A-Cake!

First I would like to congratulate your daughter for all of her wonderful and joyous sound effects--you must be a very proud mom!!

I'm so glad to hear that Addy's EKG looks better, she is just so adorable. When I see pics of her, she remindes me of my little Erin. Blonde hair and white as can be--but truely beautiful to look at.

Thanks for sharing Addy's life with us--even if most of us are strangers! ;)
