Too often Life gets in the way of having fun.

Life has been totally crazy this past week! On Thursday, we went to Joshua's eye appointment with the new Dr. that has taken place of Dr. Larson. We were there for 3 hours!! And she let us know, nothing has changed with his sight and basically this was a waste of time. (Awesome). We barely had enough time to rush home, eat and freshen up so we could find our way to Juan Diego high school in draper! Gary's cousin Ellie was in a production about Broadway musicals and Thursday night was the only night we could go to see her solo performance! She did an amazing job! Then on Friday we had Joshy's last dental appointment. I forgot to tell him it was his last so he didn't have time to mentally prepare and was heartbroken. So was Dr. Debbie. So, we made another appointment to go back and have his teeth checked but really it is just so he hang out with her for a bit and have the time to say goodbye. We were driving home and talking about whether Gary should be handy man at my sisters house alone or if we should go with him when I smelled something rather stinky, when we got home I realized it was our engine that was so stinky!! Popped the hood and discovered that the radiator cap had burst off!! We were not happy! I did what I could to fix it, everything looked normal, but after 7 minutes the car would overheat. All the places we trust with our car were closed until Monday. So we were car less for the weekend, not really a big deal, just had to cancel all sorts of St Patrick's Day fun :( But my mom picked us up and brought us over to Sica's (my sister). Gary fixed things Josh and I did our own things, we spent the night there went home on Saturday evening. Took the sheets off our bed , set the folded clean ones on and CRACK! Our bed frame broke!! Seriously. So we slept on the living room floor. Josh loved it but after 2 nights in a row on the floor (once here, once at my sister's) Gary and I were miserable! Gary was able to fix the bed frame and all is well now :) Sunday was pretty uneventful, just doing homey things checking on the car, still not finding anything wrong, people always say bad things happen in 3's so we were trying to figure out number 3....just usual Sunday stuff. At about 8 we found out Brooke's (our sister in law) water broke! This was exciting and worrisome because she wasn't due for almost a month. 5hours later, the baby was born healthy and perfect. It was a boy! 7 pounds 7 ounces 19 inches long, they named him Matthew. He is so sweet and adorable! We took our car in Monday morning when the shop opened, they couldn't find anything wrong with it, they had it all day, from 9 till 5 and couldn't get it to overheat. So weird, we figure last time the fluids were topped of the cap wasn't on all the way or tight enough or something. So the car is fine and the bed is fine. Now number 3. Today, I had to take our cat Tobie to the vet, he missed his boosters on Monday because we didn't have the car so I figured he could get them next time he came home. Well, his right rear paw was all bloody and hot and swollen and his toe nail/claw was not pointing in the right direction. He had other bumps and sores and scars but that was the worst of it. (Thankfully) he now has a cast, pain meds, anti-inflammatories, antibiotics and has to stay inside for at least 48 hours! He is not happy. To him being inside for more than 30 seconds is pure hell and the worst kind of torture we could possibly inflict on him!! So I consider that our number 3 bad thing and we are now done with that for this year :)! I will try to post pictures soon!
