Hello again. Sorry it's been a while since I've gotten back here to write. Pierre came home from the hospital the other day. He was glad to be coming home. The stone situation is still the stone situation. He didn't pass it but it isn't causing any more pain. That's why he was allowed to come home. The doctor told him not to go back to work for a week or two and if the stone acts up again to go back to the hospital. He has to go in to see the doctor next week too.
The kid's father wanted to take them for the month of August. I told them and my youngest one, Brandon, said no way!! I can't go for a month. (Which I anticipated and mentioned in a message to their dad prior to telling the kids.) When I talked to Brian (kids dad) I told him about Brandon (Mommy's boy) so we decided for the kids to go for 2 weeks then 2 weeks back home, and then if they want to go for 2 more weeks they can. I doubt Brandon will want to go back, I'm not sure about Robert, and Josh probably don't care either way except if his brothers don't go then he more than likely will see it as time away from them and will want to go. I'm hoping Pierre and I will be able to take them camping after the 2 weeks with their Dad. Maybe to the sandbanks. (Hopefully no kidney stones will come with us. lol)
Robert, Brandon and myself built a 3D puzzle of the titanic. It's really cool! Josh helped some but Robert and Brandon did the bulk of it. We rented the spice girls and Br. Bean for the kids yesterday. It was a big hit for the boys. I thought it was kinda funny (both shows) but not something I would have rented if it weren't for the kids.
I bought my lil_sis lunch yesterday. We had a good lunch and chat together.
I'm going to my mother's this afternoon. I want her to look at some invitations with me. I would like to start looking for a wedding dress too.
Well I got to run for now.
Take care
Christine
