I know I've been a bad blogger lately but when my sis told me today that she still checks my blog every day to see if I've posted. . . . well I must admit a little guilt feeling crept over me, and so here I am adding a quick post, and yes it's just for you Nenna (and anyone else popping in to see if I'm still in existence! :-)
There's a lot been happening around here but I just haven't had the energy to post about it. I was doing so well going to the gym nearly every day (which is kinda what kept me off here so much) but that all came to a stand still last week when, yet again I got sick with a sinus infection. Long story short I was laid up in bed two days this week with an ear infection too. I had another x-ray done on Monday and got more antibiotics from the doc, and the diagnosis is I STILL have chronic sinusitis (despite the 30 days of antibiotics I took in October) and I have been put on another stronger dose for another 30 days! I'm feeling much better today, but what still annoys me is that I can hardly hear out of my right ear. It's so stuffed up and makes me feel like I can't keep my balance very well, so I walk around really slowly (like an old woman!).
Kristen's birthday has been and gone! My little baby is now 8 years old. Thought I'd share some pics with you all (I know that's what you like to see Nenna). Ok first off, I couldn't resist showing this first......

our little princess at her very first birthday
making sure her crown doesn't fall off before the party starts!
We had a small party at home this year with some close friends . . . .


The party was on Saturday, but Kristen's actual birthday was the following Tuesday. She was off school all that week (for Thanksgiving) so every day was a fun day! She requested pizza for dinner and an ice cream cake . . so that's what we had (just me, her and Daddy) :-)

For a birthday treat I took her to Build-A-Bear! She didn't want a dog, or a cat or a rabbit - this time she wanted a Texas Longhorn!

How cuuuuuuuuuuuuute she is! My kindof girl...a Texas Longhorn! HOOT HOOT!!!! What a cute picture of her 1st birthday. I'm glad you posted. Sorry you're still feeling icky! I guess with the mild weather here, I've been pretty blessed without getting sick. Have a beautiful weekend!
HUGS!
Hi Denise,
Your daughter is getting to be such a beautiful young lady. She takes after you, I think. Thanks for the photos. Blessings on your week.
Hugs, Mary
Hey Denise,
I hope you feel better really soon and that you are back doing what you want to do like the gym.
The pictures of Kristen's birthday are too cute. I love that she picked out a Longhorn and wears it on her head for fun.
Get better, HUGS big time.
Awwwww... I was looking for dog ears! LOL!!! But I should have known some sort of critter would share the birthday with her! : ) What a sweetie! We all love animals around our house too... so I can identify!
You get better girl - Christmas is coming!
XOXO
Your BS still checks out your blogs. I'm getting into this blogging myself, I can do it better than facebook and I've even managed to follow your instructions to add links and stuff. I've even added your blogs.
Get well soon LS. Glad Kristen liked her pressie and had a great time. Ben is having a snow play party on Sunday for his 5th which isn't until Wednesday next week. I can't make his party but will go after the shop closes. Love ya lots - love n hugs to everyone xxx BS
Loved the pics of Sweet Kiki at 1 - what a doll :-)
And how cute is she in her Texas Longhorns T and with her little Texas Longhorn stuffie. Doug was wearing his new Texas Longhorn t-shirt he got in Texas this week... they look like Twins ;-) I'll have to show him these pics tonight :-)
Hope you're feeling better Sweetie. I can commiserate with you totally this week!
Love ya xo
I'm glad K had a good birthday.
Hope you feel much better by the time you read this. Sounds like you've had a rotten time, but well done for continuing to go to the gym despite not feeling 100%.
Sorry to say, that Victoria didn't turn up. I assume it was lost in the post at this busy time of year.
Must go. Have a lovely weekend. lots of love xx
Happy Birthday to Kristen. I hope you feel better soon Denise. I know how awful a sinus infection is.
So have you started Christmas decorating? I bet Kristen will be a big help this year.
I check your blog often too. I think I might just delete mine - I think there's only you ever stops by which is why I don't update very often. My Mam has been wearing her had to bed to keep her head warm at night - thanks again for that, it was really sweet of you and I know she really appreciated the gesture :) Talk soon.

P.s Hi Brenda!
Happy belated birthday to Kristen. The photos are great & you all seem to have had a great time. I hope you feel better very soon, sorry it's been so difficult. Hugs
Hi sweets,
Just wanted to drop by and sag hi, only to find that poor you is icky again. That sure wouldn't be any fun and I'll be praying you soon feel much better.
What a cutie Kristen is and I hope she had a wonderful 8th birthday. It doesn't seem possible that she's 8 already!
We're doing fine, very busy but enjoying every moment wanting to make the most of every moment we have remaining.
Please take care and have the best week you can...lots of hot tea and plenty of rest. xxxx
