Its the Cats!!!

By -
I went to the allergist today. They pricked me a bunch of times and it turns out that I am only allergic to two things. Dust mites and CATS. I have three cats. My Doctor told me that I can take all the allergy medication that I wanted to, but with three cats, it was not going to help. I am not sure at this point what we are going to do about this situation. I feel stressed and sad about it.

When I got home from the hospital, Autumn and Dylan were still napping, but not for long. Autumn decided that she would steal Dylan's blanket and then run with it. Dylan grabs for it and this is what it looks like:

Autumn squeals with delight as she thinks Dylan is chasing her. It is truly a hilarious sight.

You know how Autumn likes to get into the wipes?? This evening I caught her.

Crouching
You should have seen her jump when I called her name. It was pretty funny.

You know how I shake everything before I drink it?? I guess Autumn has picked up on it (and no, I'm not drinking the mouthwash, but if I was going to drink it, I would shake it first!!!)
Shake it.
She really enjoys doing that. I guess it tired her out though.

This photo was taken just before I put her to bed. Of course I put her in her PJ's first.

I am exhausted in my mind and body this evening. We are supposed to get snow on top of everything else, can you believe that!!!! Anyway, I am going to try and get some rest tonight. I would like to say thank you to Cindy for watching Autumn today while I went to the Doctor. Sean, I love you and hope that you too get a good night of sleep.

Your Favorite Wife and Airman. xoxo

The Count:
Day 9
The number of pounds I will gain tomorrow when I eat this by myself---- NINE!!

Ugh. I can empathize on the cat situation- I am quite allergic to cats, but my husband had 2 already when I moved in with him.Then, when the baby came, problems were exacerbated by the fact that they started to pee on anything and everything (they even peed in 2 of my purses!). We made them indoor/outdoor cats and they actually seem a lot happier, preferring the outside. If only you had that option. :( For as much as I complain about Florida, I guess there's one good thing about it...

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
