So this week has already been crazy! Im dealing with so much at work. Its been pretty stressful, and spending 4 1/2 hours at court yesterday was not fun...especially when my last case was dismissed and reset for March 9 due to the attorney not showing...OK so you know you have a case coming up, and you just don't show up?! How does that work ?!
However, I got to see Baby K today..She's my 6 month old premature baby(ok I really thought she was like 4-5months and was shocked to learn she's already 6 months..it goes by so quick!) She has a feeding tube now and is growing so well...up to about 11 1/2 lbs!!
Tomorrow I see my big boy S and will take him to visit his mom. He's a pretty good kid and I cant wait until he and his mom are reunited this summer.
Im also pretty sad for my new girl G. Shes a teenager too and her grandmother is not friendly..didnt even talk to her at court :( Im hoping I can get her a great visiting resource.
Then I have 6 other kids in my cases...and they are keeping me busy!
But that's OK! I will do it and earn a lot of overtime in the process.(not that we get paid for OT! Its just extra leave we can take or save).
As for the kids...They are all doing well. Maddox's thumb is healing from where Bryan slammed it(accidently) in the shed door. MacKenzie has had some problem behavior in school lately though...talking too much and dancing in class some, but today was a better day for her. Madelyne has also been doing well. Her speech therapy is really helping her articulation issues...I imagine she will need speech throughout Kindergarten next year, but that's OK too! Mallory...had her 2 month appt today and shots. She is 10lb7oz, 22 3/4 inches, and 40.1cm head. I believe her weight is around 40% and her height is 95%. She's finally gaining a lot better.
Also, I saw my friend Tina today...She looks SOOO good! For those that don't know...Tina had a car accident on the job(she works with me), and her lungs were compromised when the airbag went off..she was out of work for I think a month..shortly after that she got really sick with pneumonia and bronchitis and went into the ICU for at least 4 weeks..honestly I think it was 6 weeks...she was on a ventilator for about 4 weeks then had a trachea moved in...Finally they moved her to the rehab in Ruston...Honestly, she looked bad when I saw her there. She looked so depressed, couldnt talk, and it was just bad. She got to home right before Christmas(although had to go back in to the hospital around the first of January due to lung issues) At this time, she has 58% of her lung function back. And unfortunately now, s he might lose her job:( I truly hope not since she already has enough to worry about :(
