Twilight Movie!

Okay, so I was browsing my friends' blogs and Melissa Vera had a link to GotTwilight which had a link to Twilighters anonymous. I took the quiz and apparently I am a Bella. I am soo excited about this movie! I didn't think I was until I started browsing the literature and pics on these blogs and it looks so good. How much fun is this going to be? I can't wait.

Needing to vent a little...

Okay, so I know everyone is prob sick of hearing about this but my vertigo problem is still not resolved. It was getting better so it wasn't bothering me as much. Only dizzy now and then but the last three days it has been pretty bad again and pretty much all the time. I have had a full work up a few months ago: MRI, balance testing,antibiotics, etc. I've been to two different ENT's and am now getting my heart checked out by a cardiologist to make sure that my heart isn't causing it. It's completely depressing. Nobody can really tell me what is going on. I was hoping that it was gradually going away but the last few days it got worse again. I try not to think about it and stay busy with my kids because when I dwell on it all the worst things go through my mind. My ENT wants me to have some more balance testing done so I am going to do that but he also said that we may have not seen anything on the MRI because it was too small. So, if my balance testing comes back normal then I'll probably push for a repeat of the MRI brain and neck this time. Sorry if this is kind of a downer, I'm just having a bad day.

Busy snowy weekend in Utah

This weekend we saw the first flurries of winter. I'm sure it will warm up again and we won't see real snow til December but it was crazy because last week we were still in shorts in the 80's. I was on call this weekend at the hospital. Friday, I was called in four 4 hours and then met up with the fam for dinner at Italian Village for Mom and Jessi's birthday. So yummy! Saturday, we ran the normal errands but had to kind of stay home and keep it low key because I was on call that night. Bern, Hope, and I built a Halloween gingerbread house from a kit that I bought at Smiths. Luke was more interested in eating the candy. Hope thinks she made a halloween birthday cake for grandma and Aunt Jess. Sunday, we went to church and that night we went to Grandpa Coy's birthday party at his house. The mom's (Mom, Desi, Kerri, and Eileen) made soups and Bern made his famous breadsticks. The cousins made desserts and muffins. Em made a dessert and breadsticks. As usual, the Wardle Fam puts on quite a feast. It was delicious.

Luke's Owee!

So, Hope and Luke were playing in her room. I heard a big crash and Luke started screaming. I ran back to see what happened where I promptly spanked Hope as she proceeded to tell me that she pushed look down because he was kicking her. First, Luke can't kick standing up. He doesn't have that kind of balance yet so I don't know what really happened and second, she pushed him down earlier that day too. Anyway, we took him to Timpview Regional to have it xrayed because he wouldn't bear weight on it very well. They told me it was sprained and we went home. Hope and I went out of town for the weekend and by then he was walking with a little limp. When I got back on Sunday he seemed to be walking almost normal. Bern told me the ER DR called and I thought he was just following up. By Wed. he was still limping so I called the ER Doc back and he told me that the radiologist thought there was a hairline buckle fracture of the tibia. They wanted me to bring him back to re xray it. I decided to take him to his pediatrician to have it examined. They xrayed it and said there was a fracture of the fibula and it was not hairline. Also, you can't have a buckle fracture of the tibia( I hate that we don't have IHC insurance). They casted it and now he has to have it on for 3 weeks. So, today we autographed his cast. See if you can see what I wrote for Hope. She scribbled next to it.
