`Jeorge is home!! We are so happy. He is recovering slowly and needs lots of TLC!!

Jeorge

Some of you know what has been going on with Jeorge and some may not. jeorge was admitted to StJohn's hopspital this week. After admitting him and settling him in a rm, I got a call a few hrs later saying he was being transferred to ICU. Needless to say, I was panicked and I dropped my cell phone in the toilet and lost the majority of my numbers b/c I did not save to sim. He was in really bad shape for a few days and the dr's were alarmed b/c he had lg amounts of carbon dioxide in his system from his sleep apnea and the lack of sleep he had been living on since we opened the restaurant. He has since gotten better and was able to leave ICU. He is in a regulart room at St Johns Oakland and getting better day by day. We are hoping he can come home within the next few days. Hope all is well, KARA

Facebook

I joined facebook this week and I love it!! I think it was made for me!! I love to know how people are doing and I love seeing pictures of friends I haven't seen in years with children of their own. It is so refreshing to see everyone grown up and happy in their lives without any silly high school drama. I have reconnected with several people and hopefully going to have our own mini-reunion ( kids included) because we have not had a organized one lately.

Jack's 5th bday

Jack is 5 today and it is hard to believe!!! It just seems like yesterday that after 15 hours of labor that included 2 hrs of pushing, I was looking at my new baby boy. It feels like I blinked and now he is this big boy. We had an awesome day today!! I woke Jack up with breakfast in bed. It was his favorite blueberry pancakes with a small amount of syrup and bacon. We played with his different toys for awhile and then we ventured out. We were able to eat lunch at our restaurant, spend time with both sets of grandparents, go to rite aid to get his favorite cars, and go to the Sullivan's for a mini play date. We had cake and presents at our house after dinner and then Jack played some more. Overall, I think his bday was a success. He is having one more celebration at my parents house this Sunday!

My nephew

My nephew won his wrestling regionals this past weekend!! He is a model to all involved in any sport because he demonstrates all the qualities an athlete needs: heart, determination, strength, knowledge, and courage. He has been wrestling with a torn ACL for several weeks. He has states in 2 weeks and we are hoping he can win it all!! Good Luck Josh we love you!!!

Jack's bday party

Jack's bday party was a huge hit!! I had it a week before the actual date because many schools were having mid-winter break and i thought the moms would enjoy a day of not having to find an activity for their kids. We had it at Bounce U. This place is a huge warehouse with giant moonwalks. The kids had so much fun and the place was electric with all the happy children running around. We served lunch and cake afterwards and the kids were still energized from all of the excitement of bouncing. Jack is obsessed with Hot wheels so it was very appropriate that he received many hot wheel gifts and he recevied so many other cool things like a giant frisbee ( perfect for the spring days ahead) and a spider man web blaster. We were happy we had our party there because Bounce U did everything for us and I mean everything. I never lifted a finger for anything. They even wrote a list for me with the names of his guests and the gift they gave jack. I heard from other parents afterwards that their kids slept for several hours after the party. Jack is the energizer bunny so he keeps going and going so no nap for us. I am looking forward to this Thursday because my little guy is going to be 5 yrs old!!!
