Thuuuuuuuursday.....

Early morning TV watching... LOL ....

So today I had to take DB and Cal to the college, drop them off ... go and get Elly from Pre-School, go wait at my Mom's work so that I could give her Elly so that when she got off work they could make their WIC appt (Elly is done with school at 1pm, Mom was done with work at 1:30om and then had to be at WIC at 2pm) .... Then after dropping off Elly we went home, then went to get Cal, came back, then after an hour or so went and got DB ... Then we did some running and then came home and pretty much both died.... on the spot.... 

Anyway - here is Kaedyn walking Elly to the van after school.  She was so excited to see him - Nonna was chopped liver, it was all about her Bubba .... she adores this boy and he adores her....  only more so in smaller doses these days... LOL ....

In the van waiting for Nana to get done, Bubba was playing her videos to entertain her ....

I.is.bored.   So I Snapchat filter myself..... 

When I went to go pick up DB, this is what I saw at the end of our driveway ... what I was tryng to get was the way the sun was gleaming off the air carriers .... but couldn't see them through the trees.  You can definitely see the Bremerton Bottle Neck in full force though ...

So after getting back home, and dying - we were watching Celebrity Big Brother only I didn't realize that my cat was the true star of the show!!! 

This I just love... LOL...  Alyvia and the moon (on TV)

And then here is Joy in front of my computer monitor ..... 

But seriously .....  active and my fibro are like oil and water - they won't mix. 

Off to Seattle We Go ....

We left crazy early in the morning ... Nana and Elly took us over to Seattle for Nathan Pre-Op appointment ...

I adore being by the water.  LOVE it...  I am a true Cancer and I love to watch the water...  I have no issues being on the water.  I love it. 

(These were taken while waiting for the Kingston/Edmond's ferry .... )

'

We got to Children's and took a potty break before heading to the appointment .... I hung out with the Muskrats, I mean Rugrats....

We got taken back... Nathan is 52.9 lbs and 4ft 1.8 in.  (He was 52.3lbs and 4ft 1.7in on December 20th, the appt prior to that on December 7th ... he was 4 ft and a half an inch and 52lbs ...)  He doesn't gain well, but he never has...  however he IS gaining still ...

Nathan's not crying or upset, he's bored... LOL ... and trying to stay away from Elly because she annoys him for the most part.  He doesn't know how to handle her screaming or her touching him with his Autism and sensory issues.... 

We got slated for Monday - to get the blasted G-Tube site closed - FINALLY.  It's only been a big hole open in his belly for 6 months now...   YAY...  and it'll be our very first outpatient surgery! No overnight (or three) in the hospital!

On the way home when we were on the ferry  .... 

Katie found her way up on top of the highest point in my room (she's like an inch if even from the ceiling ...) ...  and then Joy copied....

I came home and just kinda crashed .... got a long day tomorrow too - but doesn't start AS early as today .... 

Saturday... Nope....

Originally we were going to go out to Port Gamble and Point No Point today, but it was raining and  I was not feeling well at all.... 

...... so it got postponed, and I did some things that I could (working) from bed...  oh and there was this cat who kept walking on me and using me as a bed... 

Fri-YAY

Today I ended up taking Tina up to the court house ....  and then we ended up doing some Pokemon Go Spinner seeking, Tina started a (new) account and we were trying to get her into the levels ...

We ended up stopping at the Silverdale Waterfront briefly and decided to take a few photos ....  this is actually the first time I actually stopped here.

This is my buddy Nico .... he didn't talk much though....

Calahan and Tina ....

Later we ended up stopping at another of those spots in town that a lot of people don't know about, and I always wanted to take "couple" pictures in front of this mural ...

After, they decided to vape.  The true story is this....  Calahan and Tina started blowing their vape clouds into each other's faces, however Tina smoked Cal out...   Pic #3 (bottom left) he finlly got some cloud on her...

What it looks like.......   Tina is blowing her cloud into Cal's face, and Cal is sucking up the cloud...

Then we found out our back tire was low .....  not cool Universe, not cool.....

Then there are pretty kitties.....

That's pretty much the day ....

Goodbye November, Hello December .....

GOODBYE NOVEMBER ......... and all the drama......

............ HELLO DECEMBER ......... and the CHRISTMAS SPIRIT!

December First:  Blogging Prompt #1:  WHAT WAS THE BEST PART OF YOUR DAY? 

Miss Elly.  This little girl warms my heart so much.  Like I cannot even begin to express what joy she brings into our lives, and how thankful we are.  She's so affectionate and expressive .... she loves to laugh ... (and loves to cry, she is an emotional little Leo....) .... she wants to be your friend and she wants you to be HER friend (.... in example of the kittens, even if you don't WANT to be her friend, she'll kinda make you! LOL) ....   This girl WEARS ME OUT but I am blessed to be a twinkle of time in her existence ...

Today: She tortured the poor kitties going "It's okay, Mommy has you" .... which is something I say to her all the time (only Nonna, not Mommy) ....   She curled up with Kaedyn and I and watched some TV.  She was all excited to see "Elly the Elephant" at the end of Greatest Showman.  Then she said she wanted to dance like the girls at the end of the movie, and later stood at my bed and did ballet type moves, it was beyond adorable.  B E Y O N D adorable.   She laughed, she cried (a lot) and she expressed herself, which I love. 

So Nana and Papa both worked this afternoon, so I got a little bundle of sunshine.  She was so excited to come over to Nonna and Popi's house!!  During the car ride, she decided to take off one of her boots and socks... lol...  lil' stinker.

Of course El comes around and the cats move to high ground.

Nonna and Elly.   She had her bath, got her changed and she wouldn't let Nana do her hair because she wanted Nonna to do it.  LOL .... so I gave her little dancer buns....

The older cats hit high ground .... the little ones, not so much.... she caught Luna.... and Luna was her bestestest friend.  She'd coo at them going "It's okay, Mommy's got you."

She was on my bed and instead of grabbing a blanket, she went and found some paper towels to used as a blanket. LOL.  Eventually I just gave her my blanket and took the paper towels away...

The little stinker was all over today.  She came over in one outfit, because she was playing with her kitchen stuff and she dumped (spit out, shook, who knows) her chocolate milk into her kitchen stuff and she was "cooking" with it.  So some got on her, and on the floor, etc and so on.  So we changed her diaper and wet pants before we left, but then after we changed her pants and before we actually got out the door, she knelled on the floor in the wet... lol.... so we just left cuz I had clean clothes and she was getting a bath at my place.  (Note to self: Get stuff for Elly for my house.)  So we got to my place and she had her bath, she got clean clothes, but then I got this Doc McStuffins snow (glitter) globe and I thought it was glued shut, but nope...  it wasn't.  She went in Daddy's room, shut the door, and proceeded to unscrew the bottom of the snow globe.... and got.... it .... all ... over ....  OYE this girl.  LOL.  So luckily I had grabbed her backpack and there was a spare pair of clothes in the backpack and so I threw those on her.  AND THEN she went and shut herself in the bathroom with the kittens and she got in the bathtub (right after Daddy took a shower before leaving for work.) .... so she got wet........ AGAIN.... But no socks, so I messaged my mom and told her she was on her third outfit and all her socks were wet.... LOL... and she might need to bring backup when she came to pick her up.

So then Daddy had to go to work so he loved on his Elly before leaving.  She was super sweet, she was like "KISS ME" and so he kissed her cheek repeatedly.

We had Tacos/Nachos for dinner.  Soooooooooooo good.....

I like my pretty watch face....

December First:  Photo Prompt #1:  What's your view today? 

This morning, when I dropped DB off at work, I was driving down the road (it was foggy) and I came to a spot that was like.....  this looks really cool ....  so I pulled over and took this picture....

and then I took this one....

After that I drove down to the Anchor Park and I took some pictures ... because the fog line was really cool and the sun was peaking a bit, thought it would make some really amazing pictures...

And so I was in the van for a little bit (doing some Pokemon Go stuff)  then the sun peaked a bit more..... so I got back out of my van and took a few more pictures...

 

Most of our family and friends are covered in snow right now ...  LOL....  I'm sitting all like... it's in the 50's and nice here!  My window is open! LOL
