Today we went car shopping. Now, there is nothing and I mean NOTHING fun about doing this with my husband. We have been married for almost 4 years, and every time we talk about buying a car it ends up in a fight. We really tried hard to not argue about it this time, but that was easier said than done.
Larry took a half of a day from work, picked up Kaylee from school at lunch time, and we headed to Winchester to look at two vehicles that he liked. To be able to afford a car, we have to get rid of both of our vehicles...so that means we have to agree on one car for the both of us...lol. I want a car that is good on gas, and he wants a four wheel drive truck or jeep.
So we get to this car dealership and Larry test drives a Ford F150 and a 4 door Jeep Sahara. I am totally against the Jeep because the back seat is crowded and uncomfortable. Our friend has one, and we rode with them in the back seat a few months ago...and it was not roomy. Our problem now with the 2 door Explorer is that we need more room, and I don't feel that the Jeep will offer enough space. He fell in love with both vehicles, and I wouldn't test drive either one. We ended up getting into an argument later on about it because I wouldn't even give the Jeep a chance.
We didn't speak for a few hours when we got home, and I spent that time in the office cleaning it out some more. He came down and asked me to come to bed, and we had a talk about the Jeep and the truck. I think the truck has too many miles on it, and I don't want to make payments forever on something that won't last us a long time. Jason's wife even told me that their baby's car seat is crowded in their Jeep's back seat, and that is why I am against it. Well, he picked up the phone and called Jason and put him on speaker phone to talk to him about the Jeep. We shared some laughs and Jason helped us get over our little fight. I would still rather have my choice of a car, but we are in a losing battle on trying to agree. He has always wanted both of those vehicles, and if he doesn't get one of them...my life will not be fun. lol.

May 14, 2008 Larry comes home
Kennedy and I didn't get any sleep last night because I started her on a different type of Similac at bedtime. I am kind of going through what was given to me, and hoping that one of them works...and this type was Similac Soy with iron. She absolutely hated it, and boy did we have an interesting night. That little girl was so upset with having to eat the soy formula, she spit it out everywhere, she threw up, we spilled it on the bed, you name it...it probably happened last night. We were both so tired, but she wouldn't sleep because she wanted something different to eat.
At 7 this morning I pumped and got over 2 ounces, and that is the most I have ever gotten in one pump. Thank God for Reglan, I cannot tell you how wonderful that little tiny pill is for my breast milk. I wish the all natural stuff worked for me, but unfortunately it did not. My milk would have dried up if it weren't for the Reglan, and I am thankful for having it to get milk for Kennedy. I put the milk in a bottle for her and she sucked it down this morning and fell back asleep. I hung out with Kaylee for a little while and then told her I was going to go back to sleep too. Kennedy and I slept until 10:30, and that is better than nothing.
I have a little bit of the regular Similac Advanced left over, just enough to last us another day or so. Mariah also has a small can of Enfamil Lipil that she cannot use with Ava, so I picked it up from her house tonight to use. My pediatrician said that Enfamil Lipil and Similac Advanced are very similar and it wouldn't hurt her to try both to see if she preferred one over the other. Mariah also gave me a Parents Choice can...so I will try that after the Enfamil is gone next week. In my opinion, I don't think I will stick with the Enfamil because she spits out a lot of it. The Similac gave her diarrhea, so I will switch brands to see if the Parents Choice works better. I hear that the Parents Choice is cheaper too...so that would be great if we could find a type that she likes. I am pumping enough milk now that allows Kennedy to have two breastmilk bottles a day too. If my milk continues to increase, I can take her off of formula all together!! That will be a little while if that can happen though.
I have pitched trash bag after trash bag from the office...and it still isn't done. Larry came home a few hours earlier than planned, and the office wasn't done. I don't even think he could tell I did anything in the room...lol. He was crabby when he got home, so that made me even more upset that the house wasn't clean. I just tried to avoid him until he got over his little mood, and then we were fine. I just think all the driving was getting to him from coming back from the academy.

May 13, 2008 Running Errands
I didn't get to watch much of the movie...I fell asleep probably 30 minutes into it. Kaylee said she watched the whole thing, and she really liked it. She came up with the idea to watch it again tonight...lol...I'm not so sure about that one.
It took us 3 hours to get showers, Kenned bathed, and dressed--ready to leave the house to get things accomplished. I have my little check list and I want to get some stuff marked off of it. Right before we leave, Kennedy decided to poop all the way up her back! Yep, she is no longer constipated...and it is more like a diarrhea mess. I don't know if this is normal, or if Similac just isn't for her. I don't want to be one of those moms that constantly change her formula's until the perfect one is found, but I think I might be!
Anyway, we get a new outfit on the baby and we are headed out of the house. We hit Wal-Mart, The Bon-Ton, Target, and walked around the Martinsburg Mall for a little while. I called my doctor to schedule a 6 week check up for me this week, and they are able to squeeze me in on Thursday. We then ran across Hagerstown looking for the medical lab that I was sent to. They ended up moving to a new building, and I was afraid we wouldn't get there in time before they closed. Well we made it, and Kennedy was a champ when she took her blood. Kennedy didn't even cry (I think that was because I was feeding her at the same time..lol). Dad's house is right around the corner, so we went there to visit. He fed us something to eat, and sent us home with some home-made vegetable soup.
By the time we got home, unpacked, and sorted through the bags from shopping it was 10 p.m. and way past Kaylee's bedtime. So the office was not touched...nothing in the house was touched actually. I have my work cut out for me tomorrow while Kaylee is in school. I have to get at least one of these rooms done before Larry gets home so he doesn't have a panic attack! lol. I am exaggerating of course...he told me to sleep when the baby slept and to just relax while he was gone. I just want to be more proactive about gutting the house. There is no time for relaxing until that is done.

May 12, 2008
Last night wasn't so bad with Kennedy. Kaylee asked me if she could sleep with me in my room...and I think she is going to reconsider for tonight. lol. Even though Kennedy only got up a couple of times, I think Kaylee is realizing she can sleep more sound in her own room.
I finished up the painting in Kennedy's room this morning and put her bedding on her crib. The only things that are left in her room are putting her dresser together and putting the border up on the walls. Larry and I are planning to do that Thursday and Friday evenings after he gets off of work.
I picked through some random things in the house and cleaned little by little. Now that I am looking at the house, I think I need to stick with one room at a time so I can see the progress. It doesn't look like I did anything today because it was all over the house. Tomorrow, I am going to focus on the office and get it organized. I almost have a trash bag filled up with junk already, and I just took a small bite out of it. lol
Kaylee is off of school for Election Day tomorrow, so we have a lot of running to do. She is going to be a huge help by carrying things for me and keeping her sister company in the back seat. I need to get blood work done on Kennedy to check her AFP levels again. Children's is requesting that I have it done weekly for at least a month. If the levels increase...not good--but if they stay the same...that is good.
We picked out a movie and curled up in bed together to call it a night. I picked out the movie "Uptown Girls" because I don't think we have ever seen it...and it is in our collection of movies. I want to say that someone gave it to us, and we totally forgot about it. I doubt I stay up for the whole thing...I am tired.

May 11, 2008 Happy Mom's Day
Another sleepless night at the Ruffner residence!!! Man, that little girl was crying up a storm for the second night in a row. I really think it is gas, because she is so hard to burp after she eats. I am positive that all that air has really taken a toll on her tummy. Larry and I took turns again last night but I didn't fall asleep until 5:45 a.m.!! Not to mention that I needed to get up for church at 6, so I was not a happy camper. I started to lose my voice from being so exhausted, and that was stressing me out because I had to sing at church today.
I lost my mind on Elzie during one of my turns with Kennedy around 4 a.m. this morning. Kennedy wet her whole outfit and blanket, so I went into her room to get another outfit to change her into. Next thing I know, Elzie jumps up and tries to balance herself on the crib railing and scratched it really bad. I LOST IT, I was so mad and wanted to scream on the top of my lungs. That crib is brand new and we haven't even had the chance to lay the baby in it and one of these freaking cats comes along and scratches the wood. I started complaining to Larry about it and it started an argument because we were both cranky. He told me later that he almost went downstairs to sleep on the couch...lol. Ooops....but seriously, it is just one more reason to get rid of the cats, and I know he won't budge on the idea.
Church was amazing, as usual. My stomach was in knots over the mom song, but I knew I was worrying too much about it. We had a great turn out for both services, and everyone looked so nice. The creative arts team did a wonderful job with all the songs, and we cracked everyone up with the mom song. Yea, there were a few mistakes, but we played them off well. I don't think many people heard the mistakes, or they just didn't care because they were too busy laughing. The message was very powerful, and I am sure every mom felt very special when they were given a carnation to close out their visit.
We went to our favorite chinese buffet for lunch, and then headed home to open my presents. Kaylee was so excited, just as she always is on holidays. She made me a beautiful card, and decorated a gift bag with a few little hand crafted items. Kennedy gave me a funny card, and Larry gave me an amazing card, a beautiful cross necklace, a few manicure items, and a gift card to get a full body massage from Seaside. :) I have been hinting around to wanting a facial and a massage for awhile now. I am glad he listens well!
I fell asleep while watching Mary Poppins on TV, and Larry let me sleep for a few hours before he woke me up. He left to go back to the police academy for a class he needs to make up, and he wanted to be able to say good bye. We were all going to go to Charleston together, but the police department wouldn't pay for a hotel for him...so it just wasn't worth keeping Kaylee out of school and taking the baby out. We could've stayed at his friends house too, but I didn't want them to feel like they had to entertain us while Larry was in class. Larry said for us to just stay home so Kaylee didn't miss school, and I could work on the baby's room and gutting the house. I was okay with him leaving this time because I knew it was only 3 days, not 4 months...and he could call and text as much as he wanted.
I am hoping it's not another sleepless night with Kennedy. I just gave her some gas medicine and I know that will help her bloated belly. She didn't have a dirty diaper all day today, so I hope that doesn't add to her problems at night. I talked to Kaylee's grandparents in Ohio, and they said that I shouldn't be worried about her not having any dirty diapers...it's normal.

May 10, 2008 Greenwalt Benefit
So much for sleep! lol. Larry and I barely slept last night because Kennedy wanted to cry the whole time. We took turns on who got up each time, and we really didn't know what to do to help her. I think she was bloated and was having gas pains, but Larry didn't want me giving her the gas medicine. It was a rough night, and I felt really bad for her because there wasn't much we could do.
This morning was Gaudy Gala day at The Living Room, but I could not get myself up. I slept in until 11:30 a.m., and I could've slept longer if Larry would've let me. Man it was rough being up all night, and even though we took turns--we were both still awake. I heard that all the ladies had a blast, and I wish I had the energy to get up and go to it. Sleep was top on my list this morning :(
We were even 2 hours late for the Greenwalt benefit because we slept in too late! Once everyone got showers and baths, we got there around 3 p.m. to Moose Acres. It was great to see everyone there supporting our favorite family from The Living Room! Almost all the Oreo Truffles sold too (I think Danny Reese bought most of them).
Larry and I started going car shopping today. We do not agree at all when it comes to getting a more reliable vehicle, and there is no way we are going to be totally happy. Because of finances, we are getting rid of both of our vehicles to be able to get a lower payment on one vehicle. It is going to be interesting only having one car, but we will make it work. Right now we have my junker-clunker that rarely even starts, and a 2 door Explorer. So we don't drive my car because we don't know if it will start, and even if it did...the inspection is dead, the side mirror is gone, and the windshield is cracked. It just isn't a safe car to put my two children in. The Explorer doesn't have enough room for us. We have to squeeze Kennedy in the back seat and then Larry has to sit squished up to the steering wheel to make room for the car seat to latch. lol, it just isn't comfortable and I get really stressed when I have to go somewhere alone with Kennedy. It is very difficult to get her in and out of the vehicle and it makes me want to say LOTS of bad words! lol
The scary thing about getting a car is the car payment. Right now, we do not have a car payment, and it is a struggle to make ends meet. Now we have a baby, diapers, formula, and not to mention all the doctor bills added to our home and I know that will squeeze us tighter than ever. Giving up both of our cars to put towards the down payment will lower our loan payment, and that makes me happy. We are even going to put the $$ from the motorcycle towards the next car. Now we just need to agree on the car!! lol. That's the hard part!!! lol.
Kaylee and I went to The Living Room to meet up with Chris Voorhees, Mary Beth Blair, and Jeannie Hurley to rehearse our special mom song for the Mother's Day Service. It was truly the most difficult song I have ever had to learn, but so worth all the practice we put into it. We were there until 9 p.m. going over it again and again. If you want to hear the song, check out this link. http://youtube.com/watch?v=RxT5NwQUtVM I can't wait to do it and get both of the church services over with...I am a nervous wreck over this song. I know that is crazy because I am on stage all the time with praise and worship, but I feel more pressure with this song for some reason. I couldn't have asked for a better God chick team to sing it with me though. We are going to rock the house tomorrow.
Update on JR Butcher:
I am sure if you check the comments Jill can give you a more accurate update, but I heard that the surgery went well. Most of the tumor was removed but some of it was embedded in his brain tissue and it could not be taken out. Someone even told me that they found another lump near his thyroid gland that had to be removed. He will start chemotherapy as soon as possible, but his outcome looks good for the most part. His spirits are high, and some of the City police officers have visited him in the hospital.

May 9, 2008 It's Painting Day
Kennedy only got up twice to eat last night. As much as I want to keep her on a schedule of eating every three hours, I had no problem sleeping right along with her! When she finally got hungry this morning, Larry got up and warmed up the bottle for me. That was nice to not have to get up to get the bottle for a change. We all hopped back in bed and hung out until it was time for Larry to get ready for work.
Lots of laundry, lots of bills, cleaning, etc...a day that I thought would never end! After cleaning all day, it still looks and smells bad to me...lol. Once the house is gutted, Cindy and Eric said that they would shampoo the carpets for us! That will be nice to get some of this funky cat smell out (even if only temporarily)! Kennedy again slept for most of the day in her new papasan vibrating chair. She really likes it, and normally falls asleep as soon as we put her in it.
Special delivery: The baby's new crib bedding and border for her room came in this afternoon. Larry and I ordered it online the other day because it hadn't been purchased from our registry, and we needed it to paint and match up colors. I was so siked to open the box and see it in there! As soon as Larry got home from work, I ran out and got paint to match the quilt.
Amy came over a little later in the evenings after she fed her rug rats, and we finished up the room. It is so beautiful, and I can't wait to get it completely done. I have a baby shower at school coming up at the end of the month, and I am crossing my fingers that we get more stuff for the room off of the Target Registry. If not, we will just slowly buy stuff in small increments.
