Weekend Re-Cap

Ok, I am *almost* done with all my Christmas shopping!!! I still have like 3 people to buy for, but they should be pretty easy. Now I just need to go get the kids their birthday presents.


Tobbie's Santa Loot





Tristan's Santa Loot

We had a full weekend and it should have been even fuller, but our dear friend Jessica that runs Captured Photography was sick and had to cancel our photo session. Hope she feels better soon.
The kids and I went with my mom to Columbus to watch the State Cheerleading Championships. My sister in law is the cheerleading coach for Northgate High School in Newnan and she was there with her squad. And they won, for the third year in a row! Yes, third year in a row! I have never been to one of these and it was so much fun! Minus the mean mommy's that were there. Cheer Moms are way worse than football, baseball and soccer moms! And talk about some sore losers. There was one team that got second place and they were so mad they couldn't even enjoy the fact that they got second. I guess it's true, "if ya ain't first, ya last!" And I think Tristan enjoyed himself more than Tobbie. WhoooHooooo, Way to go Sarah and Northgate!Coach Sarah




Yesterday we went to church, and no, the world isn't coming to an end! We visited a new church and we really liked it. Then we went and grabbed some lunch and did some more shopping. Tobbie talked me into a table top pink Christmas tree, we purchased a new nativity scene and an advent calendar. Plus I stocked up on more clothes for the kids. Those will be given to them for birthday and Christmas gifts from Michael and I.

Not too much other than that, just supa dupa busy!

Isn't that so stinkin' cute? Anyways, go on over and check out her blog and request an order form. She recently did the kids Halloween party invite and she will be doing their birthday party invites along with my Christmas cards. All you have to do is click on the little cute box down below that says "My Card's Better Than Yours". Go check her out!!

My Card's Better Than Yours

I am bad, very, very, very bad!

Ok, I took some time away from bloggin' to concentrate on The Big Pig Jig vending booth I was going to do last weekend. And that didn't; happen! Why you ask? Well, My little Sweetie and my little McSweet were SICK! I mean hard core sick!

Tristan began running a temp and not feeling too swift on the afternoon of Halloween and had trouble going down that night. At 12:30 in the AM, his temp had risen to 104 and wouldn't come down. So, off he and I go to the ER (and no TriCare, it wasn't LIFE, LIMB OR EYESIGHT). Luckily Tobbie had gone home with my mom since my neice was there visiting so she didn't have to tag along. 9, yes NINE long hours later, Tristan and I head home with a handful of prescriptions and because we live in the South and Sunday's are supa dupa holy, the pharmacies didn't even open until after church. So my sick little man and I headed home and took a little nap! Then Kroger didn't have one of his scripts so I had to go to Walgreens and listen to the Pharmacy manager tell me that she couldn't believe what doctors prescribed for babies these days and what made it worse were the mothers that gave it to their babies. Let's just say that this mommy had a few choice words for her. Then I got in my car and cried. Everything had finally built up!

Then come Wednesday morning, Tobbie starts running a temp. I call to get us a same day appt at the peds clinic on the base and they can't see us. But the kind nurse suggested I take Tobbie to the Urgent Care and Tristan back to the ER, he was beginning to get worse. Seriously lady? You want me to go to two different places to have my children seen? Finally she agreed to approve for me to take them both back to the ER. Fun times, fun times.

Tristan ended up with pneumonia and they barely looked over Tobbie and just gave us some cough medicine for her. Luckily we have been fever free since Sunday evening!!!! We went out of the house tonight and will again tomorrow evening!

Oh, they are both getting better. And only Tristan was swabbed for H1N1, and it was negative.


Ok, now on to the good stuff!!! Sweetie McSweets is launching a for realz website!!! I am going to be leaving Etsy and focusing primarily on my new website. It should go live this coming Friday!! Michael doesn't know yet and I want it all set up and looking purdy before he sees it. I hope he will be proud of me and not all, "why didn't you tell me you were doing this?", and "how much is this gonna cost a month?".

My new domain will be.....drumroll please...... www.sweetiemcsweets.com

I am so excited!! Go Me, Go Me!
