I can't believe it either. I'm posting again. I promise it's not the end of the world. Just had a lovely Crenshaw family reunion at Ocean Isle Beach, NC and feel compelled to show you some photos. Here they are. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I guess I'll start with the bad news. Lucy took a nosedive off the top bunk and landed eye socket first on the tile floor the first night we arrived. She got her first CT scan that night. She stayed overnight (with Travis) and was released the next afternoon. Diagnosis - closed skull fracture above her right eye and a stinkin huge black eye. It made her slightly more timid for the first few days, but she's doing great now.

We had lots of fun things we did for the reunion and The Chabo's were in charge of a Road Rally/Scavenger Hunt. We decided to make it the 'Crensh-Olympic Games' and have people scavenge for items they would use in silly 'minute to win it' style Olympic competitions.

Babies asleep in shopping carts are cute. Aunts are awesome. We love the zoo. Nana, twins, and I went to visit my Grandma (95 years old!) and Uncle (not 95) in MO. Surprise trip with hubby to Niagara Falls. Holly's preschool graduation with her 'husband' (she tells me so, anyway), Julian. Dance recital.

Sorry bout that. I noticed that it happened about the same time the twins started crawling/walking. So maybe that had something to do with it. Regardless, I made a plan this year to write in my journal more and I've had success with that, so maybe now I can add blogging more to the plan. We'll see. Since I'm sick in bed today I have some time, so here's a little photographic catch up of the Chabo's life since August.<br />

They were protesting because they felt they were being treated like slaves. Can you tell I don't feel bad for these people?<br />

The following day, our friends the Allred's, who live a couple of hours away, came to visit us. We went to Hershey's Chocolate World. There's lot of stuff to do there as long as you want to spend money for them, don't need a stroller, and love buying Hershey's brand stuff. We were a little disappointed. Mostly because it was super packed and between our 2 families we had 4 kids under the age of 2 and REALLY missed having a stroller to cart them around in (they're not allowed in most areas). Plus, we're not really Hershey collectors or anything, I'm not much of a shopper and most of the building is a giant store. One of the attractions that they have there that's free is a Hershey kisses packaging area for kids. They take your picture and put it on a tag (which you can buy for a small fee), put on a workers hat, give the kids a kiss shaped container and let them fill it up. You can keep the container, also for a small fee. <br />

We decided to splurge for the adults and the Allred's oldest son to 'Make your own candy bar!' That was actually pretty fun and interesting, but they didn't explain that the other kids over 2 couldn't come into the 'lab', too, so Ryan Allred nobly gave his ticket to their next oldest kid, and he took the other one over 2 out and bought her cupcakes. We got to pick our flavor of chocolate (white or milk), 3 'drop-ins' from a list of 6, and whether or not we wanted sprinkles on top. They had signs up that were quite informative that talked about the candy bar making process. We educated ourselves while we watched our candy bars get made. You also get to design the packaging for your bar, which was unexpected and fun. Mine was milk chocolate with pretzels, toffee, and raspberry bits. It was pretty good. <br />

Then we looked around in the stores and I bought a 1 lb Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Yes. You read that right. We also did the other free thing, a 'ride' that talks about how they make chocolate. Think 'it's a small world' but with cows and slightly less singing. Our friends the Allred's bought us a giant candy bar that had a picture of all of us on it. We love them and miss them! <br />

We also had a good time just hanging out in the hotel. It was unbelievable. There were 3 or 4 pools, a playground, tennis courts, game room, wii room, 'character' sightings, biggest splash contests, and kids craft areas. Lucy even got to meet some of the 'characters' in the lobby during breakfast one day.<br />

We learned that even little kids are into 'Twilight'.<br />
(Just kidding!! Of course, they know nothing about it. But they have heard about Dracula/vampires and licked the beaters after we made a red velvet cake...)<br />

I'm Gaelic.Happy St. Patricks Day, everyone! This year our family will celebrate the holiday in the traditional way that everyone (who doesn't drink) celebrates St. Patricks Day. By eating! And to make it even more joyous, this year Holly can really EAT! She just had her 4th annual allergy testing and this year all her food allergies were GONE. I could not believe it! After being forced to choke down bread made from tapioca starch and rice flour for the past 4 years, she's finally able to eat like every other kid. Chocolate chip cookies! Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! Pizza! Chicken nuggets! Reese's peanut butter cups! Grilled cheese sandwiches! Brownies! Pretzels! Corn dogs! Scrambled eggs! Waffles! Mayonnaise! Real bread! I won't to have butter her 'toast' with a separate knife, or make a special Holly-ized version of nearly every meal, or terrify the babysitter by showing her how to use an epipen in case Holly stops breathing, or take away half her Halloween candy! She can even eat her own birthday cake! The list could literally go on and on... I'm just so proud of Holly for always being so sweet through the gross and different food she's had to eat these last few years. When we got in the car after the momentous visit to the allergist, Holly pumped both her fists in the air and said, "I DID it!" That sweet exclamation brought tears to my eyes. Forget St. Patrick, this year I'll celebrate my Holly.

In fact, I consider myself PRO in all things children-having-fun-with-teeth related. (and everyone knows that wiggling/loosing teeth and being visited by the tooth fairy are SUPER fun!) At least that's how this girl sees it. <br />But I AM against loosing your teeth before their prime. I mean, that tooth wasn't even 4 years old! My little Holly-Bolly just had her 4th birthday last month! That tooth should have had at least 2 more good years to it! *sigh* Sadly, Holly has always been careless where her mouth was concerned. Always smashing it into things. The concrete floor at Walmart...her cousin Lily's head... That poor tooth finally succumbed tonight to an innocent bowl of white chicken chili. And I, her dental hygienist mom, am devastated. Holly, however, couldn't be more excited. She has been running around looking into every available reflective surface for the last 30 minutes. She LOVES it. She is blissfully unaware that she'll have that lovely hole in her face for 3 more years. Or that loosing that little tiny tooth so early will cause her permanent tooth to be delayed coming into that spot. It will most likely cause crowding and general crazy-lookin-teethness for several years. Until she gets braces. *sigh* Well, at least someone's happy about it.Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-54693680962321577862010-12-20T15:16:00.000-05:002010-12-20T16:38:57.885-05:00For Unto Us (the chabo's) A Child (or two) Is Born!I apologize for the tardiness of this post.

So I told the hubby and scooted to the bathroom. A few hours later I was still very unsure. My honey is a natural worrier when it comes to me being in labor (which isn't really his fault considering he had to deliver our last one in the kitchen when we didn't get to the hospital in time. Plus, as a nurse anesthetist, he sees lots of births and knows all the things that can go wrong, while I am blissfully ignorant.) so he stayed up cleaning the house (his stress relief) while trying every tactic to get me to wake up the kids (at 1 am!) and drag them to the hospital so they could check and see if my water really broke. I flatly refused. I was having no contractions, no leakage, I was exhausted, and had a migraine. I was going to bed. He only accepted when I promised to go to the doctor the next day and have the 'i-think-my-water-broke' test done. Well rested the next morning, I got the kids up and ready, took Sophia to school, took Holly to get her hair cut, and finally dropped both Holly and Lucy at my girlfriend Elisa's house while I just whipped over to the hospital so they could confirm that my water hadn't, in fact, broken. I was mistaken. My water had, in fact, broken and I hadn't even brought the packed hospital bag. I had walked into the hospital with no more then my jacket and purse. And of course because of my speedy labors in the past and the baby on the bottom (Alice) being breech, they were all mad at me for not coming in sooner. (whatever OB people! I wasn't having any contractions and this isn't my first trip around the Birthing Center! At least I'm well rested!!) So they threw me in the OR and prepped me for a c-section. <br />The next 30 minutes was a miracle. Everything went great. Both my OB dr's happen to be there so they both helped deliver our 2 girls. The bassinettes were positioned such that I could see my babies when they came out, which I loved. Alice came out first and screaming. Penny was next and came out not so much screaming as grunting. (c-section babies often have goop in their lungs, and this was Penny. She coughed it out soon enough.) They were perfect. I was numb. It was heaven. <br />When I was still pregnant and moping about the baby being breech and needing a c-section, one girlfriend of mine commented that this way I will have experienced it all. Hospital birth, epidural, induction, home birth, natural labor/birth, and c-section. I have to say in my experience, natural childbirth is a 10 on the pain scale, and both induction without epidural and post surgery c-section pain are an 11. Holy cow. That recovery is some business. But, now 2 weeks out, I feel really great, my girls are gorgeous, and we're all happy. Hooray for babies!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KopiPpEcOKcKt2OZg2l20Tfr9ZA9NLv9i_kDbCv5GXBt_GDjih5W7JeoUHbBpiRBd_cp-csxgnw6H1eLy70sYyLZ25Fy3-zMk4CO3n9UE1Izf306EaPBYaFUJZQQ3rCx_JhT6HToHNE/s1600/DSCN1737.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KopiPpEcOKcKt2OZg2l20Tfr9ZA9NLv9i_kDbCv5GXBt_GDjih5W7JeoUHbBpiRBd_cp-csxgnw6H1eLy70sYyLZ25Fy3-zMk4CO3n9UE1Izf306EaPBYaFUJZQQ3rCx_JhT6HToHNE/s400/DSCN1737.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552879929353006626" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeqOBS1YifpR5mFvehkOKbNxEMekAQ5s77SVRzfKAZFFCvFmKVjFHtWy5D1gLmoqpZvY7_fX3dVnuc_PrCTdM62ZNxicNfllCJaJn_ubt3cNWcf_tCP9QkDRHxsasGKIzvKjAnQhN5yAY/s1600/DSCN1709.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeqOBS1YifpR5mFvehkOKbNxEMekAQ5s77SVRzfKAZFFCvFmKVjFHtWy5D1gLmoqpZvY7_fX3dVnuc_PrCTdM62ZNxicNfllCJaJn_ubt3cNWcf_tCP9QkDRHxsasGKIzvKjAnQhN5yAY/s400/DSCN1709.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552879925727660178" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikZbFwMzd5P9ZN_WAMN2RY3KDEf0xPeke3tG95EeuQDMyTIZlOazFsnIG9Oz1_JY9bheNfF1SxrY4g6m392MUyc9ToReO9aBDSSe4laSUfISB18qhmOlYdCM2MehLodEyVz1kHAbAakDo/s1600/DSCN1732.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikZbFwMzd5P9ZN_WAMN2RY3KDEf0xPeke3tG95EeuQDMyTIZlOazFsnIG9Oz1_JY9bheNfF1SxrY4g6m392MUyc9ToReO9aBDSSe4laSUfISB18qhmOlYdCM2MehLodEyVz1kHAbAakDo/s400/DSCN1732.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552879918387512722" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkHZ5Yx6J8pYTfIOVqROx0eamG9wvVzuyxNEpDXjg4_NcycGP0r2hs-DDqdxz6_iilpdXzYdXVKEV8-_gYfUsFenOCXxKtukdBHYezf2VZyUEr3BSl67DKVRzY54LMdDjrd7qvivTkX5E/s1600/DSCN1740.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkHZ5Yx6J8pYTfIOVqROx0eamG9wvVzuyxNEpDXjg4_NcycGP0r2hs-DDqdxz6_iilpdXzYdXVKEV8-_gYfUsFenOCXxKtukdBHYezf2VZyUEr3BSl67DKVRzY54LMdDjrd7qvivTkX5E/s400/DSCN1740.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552879915093168578" /></a>Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-78742825403401671792010-11-12T15:48:00.001-05:002010-11-12T18:18:18.894-05:00Where the heck have you been?!Well, I will tell you where the heck I've been.

(But truth be told, a certain mommy who is pregnant with twins really can't handle a new dog on top of everything else right now, so even though he is a sweet little dog, it worked out for the best in her humble opinion. :))<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKlcFlVrruFWj5NBBV7w0daGaY1CpNI2acLDBS0w8hQoFQLjBIFdRIesDRLsSs-dbEW5mwH3JZ5weH0H63f8DQPXaR0LwWStsulrHndi8EmKSCezlaJHl9rLm0TrGhmp7Lp71z-sbOw_w/s1600/DSCN1685.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKlcFlVrruFWj5NBBV7w0daGaY1CpNI2acLDBS0w8hQoFQLjBIFdRIesDRLsSs-dbEW5mwH3JZ5weH0H63f8DQPXaR0LwWStsulrHndi8EmKSCezlaJHl9rLm0TrGhmp7Lp71z-sbOw_w/s400/DSCN1685.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538802604431342402" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfj-elN4-APC3gKwhdI1G4LqHthpzI4UtkOA6qZPdwI46lF5bFcUWoNQ-TL34SkjuXFtO5auLrBzkUn5sBIYqAsI_2vTXWMN1kxe-UOwd3td2UvTXVJdoW8OGi123guTIOFpletQsCj1A/s1600/DSCN1686.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfj-elN4-APC3gKwhdI1G4LqHthpzI4UtkOA6qZPdwI46lF5bFcUWoNQ-TL34SkjuXFtO5auLrBzkUn5sBIYqAsI_2vTXWMN1kxe-UOwd3td2UvTXVJdoW8OGi123guTIOFpletQsCj1A/s400/DSCN1686.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538802600784133378" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOcykcg4YV42tuUOTW1if5ETD4D7rH9qEnCCacLo5vC_etIVisZhMF36Tume8EhJnK6HwqjS5zFxXusd_Do9Hwb_xa4TqCFu_6eq4uNTX9h80Ad3HqFW8_NrwxaMShfTYtckyKf0eVvL4/s1600/DSCN1691.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOcykcg4YV42tuUOTW1if5ETD4D7rH9qEnCCacLo5vC_etIVisZhMF36Tume8EhJnK6HwqjS5zFxXusd_Do9Hwb_xa4TqCFu_6eq4uNTX9h80Ad3HqFW8_NrwxaMShfTYtckyKf0eVvL4/s400/DSCN1691.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538802592339085042" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVmrjXaUoS6pN_uS06zKxOI3fagu6CmrzBnRkGs-jpOBDXXfAjgxtCbwPzIHgamk_tHy0ft37gG65twCbbkLVtp9yy8l_AjU3-Hj9BCge_GH1hnPpb6_biPzlo8fTi5nFMqx1qONYT6Co/s1600/DSCN1693.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVmrjXaUoS6pN_uS06zKxOI3fagu6CmrzBnRkGs-jpOBDXXfAjgxtCbwPzIHgamk_tHy0ft37gG65twCbbkLVtp9yy8l_AjU3-Hj9BCge_GH1hnPpb6_biPzlo8fTi5nFMqx1qONYT6Co/s400/DSCN1693.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538802586653416098" /></a><br /><br />So, there you have it. A shortened version of the last 6 1/2 months. Hopefully I'll be posting again shortly because I have given birth! I'm scheduled for a c-section on Dec. 14th (baby on the bottom is breech). So, maybe my next post will be shorter but infinitely cuter. :)Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-45121512943334071772010-08-03T13:20:00.000-04:002010-08-03T14:13:41.880-04:00Laura got sick of the pump and just tore it off.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEb1fNf2vXdYExVhu-fQpmoBWmE_qoCM_DyaAFn3GT5KbvOeepbO2R757LitN7obMb9lK6PaUXbW5zDrEzH-Ls7Yf7Af755KnLFedzGHHTd0Y_B0Nnth7PeAdy3I5F6sYIAbSmY_Th9sM/s1600/zofran+pump.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 260px; height: 102px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEb1fNf2vXdYExVhu-fQpmoBWmE_qoCM_DyaAFn3GT5KbvOeepbO2R757LitN7obMb9lK6PaUXbW5zDrEzH-Ls7Yf7Af755KnLFedzGHHTd0Y_B0Nnth7PeAdy3I5F6sYIAbSmY_Th9sM/s400/zofran+pump.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5501245607671452082" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_MVyhqotN4P0QHsGxk_9AcgDT6EhlcXP5AZmaeFFPXXG71p-_o_l-wEYL2pJdRbA8j8UXQGc2S52HquA9_S1eMbPCqTNJWMkgzOjahsMKfpvqrjGRQmdVqvLfaM85xptejcGFflddDNo/s1600/infusion+site.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 164px; height: 170px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_MVyhqotN4P0QHsGxk_9AcgDT6EhlcXP5AZmaeFFPXXG71p-_o_l-wEYL2pJdRbA8j8UXQGc2S52HquA9_S1eMbPCqTNJWMkgzOjahsMKfpvqrjGRQmdVqvLfaM85xptejcGFflddDNo/s400/infusion+site.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5501245601270651842" /></a><br />So I've been hooked up to this pump for the last 11 weeks that slowly pushes Zofran (an anti-nausea medication) into my leg. It does some wonderful things like make me not so barfy, makes it easier for me to eat and drink, and also to keep those food and liquids inside my body rather then having them just use my mouth as a revolving door. It also does some things I'm not so crazy about. For example, in order for the medicine to go into my leg, everyday I stab myself with what looks like the biggest thumb tack you could imagine (and then add 2 inches to that) and it's attached to a small tube that stays a few inches under the skin and the meds run into my leg and pool underneath the fat and muscle tissues there. It leaves a very large, red, swollen area (a little bigger then a computer mouse, but a little smaller then a bagel) that hurts a LOT. So much so, that you're willing to stab yourself in the other leg just to give the first one a break. As with any other owwie, they don't heal instantly, it takes about a week for them to be completely gone, so what you really end up with are 2 legs covered with varying degrees of healing welts with knots, bruises with knots, and knots. Eventually you run out of real estate. So yesterday afternoon I was trying to move that thing to a new spot, but the needle just WOULDN'T go in. I tried 8 times with 2 different needles all to no avail. I had noticed that it had been getting progressively more difficult to get that thing down into my leg for a while now, but I could always get it eventually.(according to my nurse husband, it's most likely due to the increased amount of scar tissue I have under the skin from having done this 78 different times.) So, I just turned the pump off and set it on the counter. I'm free. Probably. With the pump, I also get a home health nurse who calls every other day to make sure I'm gaining weight and don't have too many keytones (which if you don't know what that is let's just say it measures if your body is digesting your muscles for fuel). So I've discussed with my nurse what the process is for getting me off the pump and she definately didn't say 'just rip it off when you can't take it anymore'. It was more like turning the pump down by degrees till I'm off it completely. Although my nurse, Louise, is the best and she did say that a lot of girls do just turn it off one day and there's technically nothing wrong with that. So I'm free. For right now. I've been off it now almost 24 hours and I feel pretty ok. More nauseous and tired, but I haven't thrown up, and I've been eating and drinking. So far, so good. :) I'm happy. I don't have to sling on my 'medicine purse' (as my girls call it) everytime I stand up. And by the way, that picture at the top is the pump itself and some model with the 'site' in her abdomen. (you can put it there too, and I did a few times, but it hurts a lot more there on me for some reason.)Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-82655488004897432802010-05-30T13:44:00.000-04:002010-05-30T13:50:44.057-04:00It's Twosies!!Yep. I'm pregnant again. And it's twins. :) They're due Christmas day, but we don't expect me to make it that far, so it'll probably be closer to Thanksgiving. I'm only 10 weeks along, so I wouldn't normally we telling yet, but I'm so stinkin sick that my mom has graciously moved from her home near DC to our house to take care of me and our 3 monkeys. I'm hooked to a Zofran pump (it's antinausea medicine) and still taking other meds to help with the hyperemisis, too. I'll probably be like this (I'm basicly on bedrest and I've still lost about 9 lbs so far) till about October. So you might not hear much from me for a while. Just thought I'd let you know. Also, to any of my girlfriends who have twins, any websites, groups, etc... that you found helpful, send my way! Because eventually I'm going to get beyond needing to focus on just breathing and I'll be able to digest the fact that I'll be the mother of TWINS!

He was running across a field, then down a side road, and finally through someones yard. I decided to stop because I always feel bad for strays and this one was obviously someones pet at one point. I pulled over, got out, and called to the dog. He ran back across the yard to me and jumped up all excited. The little guy had a collar but no tag and was pretty dirty. So we decided to take him with us, clean him up, and give him some food. I went to the store and bought some dog food and dog shampoo. Brought him in and gave him a bath, then made him a doggie bed in the garage with some fuzzy blankets. We took some pictures and made up a flier that we planned to post around in the countryside near where we found him. He was a really sweet dog and Holly was having a BLAST taking care of him, even though she's allergic. I just kept making her come inside and wash her hands and that seemed to help her not get a rash. Eventually we went and picked up Sophia from preschool who was equally excited about taking care of her new dog, Gabriella (no amount of saying, "but this is a boy, not a girl" could change her mind on the name). Then that evening after dinner we drove down the road and decided to stop at the houses near where we found him to ask if anyone recognized him. Our first stop was the house that was in the yard that we picked him up from. Yeah, he was theirs and, no, I didn't tell the people that we "saved" him from their front yard. Shhh... it'll be our secret! :)<br /><br />Also, here's the picture we took of the girls with Santa. We're pretty sure Lucy's freakin out about the guys eyebrows. Enjoy!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilafG84qJjkvpsWc9r8dqsBbO0HsyVH948Wtqwb4d8Ra6vnRfZURnQRn8E191A4tq2Tw8Sc6tQ29c1Ku56bOJCsGkID6JW3iodqprVArrbCWwUeWpssQe7ZiL0bTbfffqkGQLUsVJwU1M/s1600-h/DSCN0648.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilafG84qJjkvpsWc9r8dqsBbO0HsyVH948Wtqwb4d8Ra6vnRfZURnQRn8E191A4tq2Tw8Sc6tQ29c1Ku56bOJCsGkID6JW3iodqprVArrbCWwUeWpssQe7ZiL0bTbfffqkGQLUsVJwU1M/s400/DSCN0648.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412300413881519106" /></a>Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-88468039702133672282009-11-01T18:26:00.000-05:002009-11-01T22:04:16.059-05:00New pictures, New paint, and PneumoniaOk, so it's been forever since I've blog.

We had a great time! We got to visit some old friends at a baby shower, attend the Relief Society General Broadcast with my mom, my 2 sisters, and one of my sister in laws, watch all the sessions of General Conference, and visit with other good friends during that week. In case you didn't know, my sister Heather is a fabulous seamstress and whipped up these cute little bags for Sophia and Holly while we were there. She sells lots of her bags and things on Etsy and I follow her blog, too. Super cute!

We had several days of celebration with preschool party's, church trunk or treating, trick or treating in town, and a MOPS playgroup party. Here are a few pictures of the girls eating the banana "ghosts" we made for the playgroup party (allergy free! just bananas, raisins, and popsicle sticks!), and dressed up for trick or treating as Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and a baby fairy. And just in case you ever wonder what Halloween is like for a kid with food allergies, I took a picture of all of Holly's Halloween loot and then another one with it divided into "allergic" and "not allergic" piles. :( You'll notice most of the really yummy stuff is on the left/allergic side. (Also, remember that she's not allergic to dairy anymore or the pile would be even smaller and contain no chocolate.) :(<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmxFwjmFWfsmXBYIp9vrjb-40pTKrk-zaHd4nveZakLMozmPelGI2J1_9QYsQ-DvrWti_3FpTbY2K9PRSfc7i-1TjdNDClhSNH6KFyks7a0QUCP8zHAcjATm3Ic_aNBsMV3-0gDKFHUU0/s1600-h/DSCN0548.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmxFwjmFWfsmXBYIp9vrjb-40pTKrk-zaHd4nveZakLMozmPelGI2J1_9QYsQ-DvrWti_3FpTbY2K9PRSfc7i-1TjdNDClhSNH6KFyks7a0QUCP8zHAcjATm3Ic_aNBsMV3-0gDKFHUU0/s400/DSCN0548.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399324044664879938" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDgEg7Lc2BGUgCYWfx1JCkMKi639GXNuwChypwZOGunTXUD60nCMaMQ8cR0iDVzV28Nuo_EKvfkH7cpEWiY_qifpC5w3sqaNr6YGEQjqKLi8pRPQlAkPw3BKQiNJ9YvvN98nhuQkr2sjc/s1600-h/DSCN0551.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDgEg7Lc2BGUgCYWfx1JCkMKi639GXNuwChypwZOGunTXUD60nCMaMQ8cR0iDVzV28Nuo_EKvfkH7cpEWiY_qifpC5w3sqaNr6YGEQjqKLi8pRPQlAkPw3BKQiNJ9YvvN98nhuQkr2sjc/s400/DSCN0551.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399324037905412738" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKRsr47s0yRwDyj187O2PVT3YIRcIH-RjWjv4VdwRrqKwlsYPTe5yLOTR5HE8L8c7_2tec0P_CaTO7hkRixGv15Fy-00fLGalcy_5zdMo3Rsbmm4es37bKEwK_RTu-jnxkAMd0E-ComlM/s1600-h/DSCN0552.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKRsr47s0yRwDyj187O2PVT3YIRcIH-RjWjv4VdwRrqKwlsYPTe5yLOTR5HE8L8c7_2tec0P_CaTO7hkRixGv15Fy-00fLGalcy_5zdMo3Rsbmm4es37bKEwK_RTu-jnxkAMd0E-ComlM/s400/DSCN0552.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399324033768409010" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJW7PcTL8wx6NcPrF7pBw90cCUvUT1JdEx1P-LyXeQU7r3q4j_uVlRTGIORO5jxUWpUrUSQ8uEeWohnQPe907KKJMts_AooU6kLUvHLz0X5D2SEFm0D1GKlIyY48cGyaupSqSchSDFajQ/s1600-h/DSCN0560.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJW7PcTL8wx6NcPrF7pBw90cCUvUT1JdEx1P-LyXeQU7r3q4j_uVlRTGIORO5jxUWpUrUSQ8uEeWohnQPe907KKJMts_AooU6kLUvHLz0X5D2SEFm0D1GKlIyY48cGyaupSqSchSDFajQ/s400/DSCN0560.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399324032455056178" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtj2tjeKSHt_QUSvQYJabFIq6OjxP9z9uuP481UzlqNod21e55ZdTVSqFe8PtSYj9HlPsIKz0mn7ILnf1AHQEvNCtUgJJfsCEtbX-dFOT-2JofMQb0gpSZj58wgNkVTQ8Ym1a7jpR-p_0/s1600-h/DSCN0559.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtj2tjeKSHt_QUSvQYJabFIq6OjxP9z9uuP481UzlqNod21e55ZdTVSqFe8PtSYj9HlPsIKz0mn7ILnf1AHQEvNCtUgJJfsCEtbX-dFOT-2JofMQb0gpSZj58wgNkVTQ8Ym1a7jpR-p_0/s400/DSCN0559.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399324027700561970" /></a><br />And lastly, I am currently recoving from a fabulous case of pneumonia, which is pretty much just as awesome as it sounds. I'd never had pneumonia before. It was freaky. It felt like a carnival worker was sitting on my chest and everyday he got fatter and fatter and I could breath less and less. It sucks. Literally. One of the reasons I think I kept getting worse instead of better for so long is that I didn't know what was wrong with me and decided just to keep going like nothing was wrong. So I painted our front door red. It didn't help the pneumonia, but I think it definately helped our homes aesthetic. Here are before and after photos. Likey or no likey? Should I paint the 2 side thingys, too? Let me know what you think. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKfc4FpySVn8OxdgSejmjOvASV0k5WK2VrCBFifHyYFWQ0rG5yDX-WYEAw__75XTRl-nEQi2IiQAWis99numkBu_K3bbvznUoOprNsF4eb84j8vF9xuz27FIvgugPmFyDoHF0d90nNRVs/s1600-h/image.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 215px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKfc4FpySVn8OxdgSejmjOvASV0k5WK2VrCBFifHyYFWQ0rG5yDX-WYEAw__75XTRl-nEQi2IiQAWis99numkBu_K3bbvznUoOprNsF4eb84j8vF9xuz27FIvgugPmFyDoHF0d90nNRVs/s400/image.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399334388665850626" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvWsD3czAdibuujecvZvcWpX1YhJ7TGsgNcQoMZl9EDSRbNJWLXuQtMRNqd28waFsfHpqixB9VJt07l-4P96qZlz_JBt0tmRs0995BRRDRe0GPht2s-eCSZ9NIfzhBLDENi_WVkWJOQX4/s1600-h/DSCN0577.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvWsD3czAdibuujecvZvcWpX1YhJ7TGsgNcQoMZl9EDSRbNJWLXuQtMRNqd28waFsfHpqixB9VJt07l-4P96qZlz_JBt0tmRs0995BRRDRe0GPht2s-eCSZ9NIfzhBLDENi_WVkWJOQX4/s400/DSCN0577.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399334392342774642" /></a>Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-46498807027172111352009-09-08T22:39:00.000-04:002009-09-08T23:53:17.081-04:00Big day of firstsA few weeks ago as I was filling out the necessary forms for Sophia to start preschool I got really teary-eyed. I can't believe she's going to school. Not that she isn't ready (She's more then ready.) I can't believe she's gotten so big. I know she's as tall as a 6 year old, but she's still only 4 1/2! But now a days (I say that like I'm 100) all the kids start sooner than that. There's a little girl just her age in her class who's been there for 2 years already. <br />We're only sending her for 3 hours on 3 days a week and I still feel weird about having her gone from me for such a long time during the day. Crazy. But the ladies at her school are vigilant about keeping the kids safe and know that only Travis or I are allowed to pick her up. So that makes me feel better. <br />Well, she loved every minute of it and can't wait to go back. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH8kbX8OhijpP9m9881OfkV9I5De9ZY3wkgxHIrKh9rP1K40D6whugMCx-5qUmx6iuD4HknJ34284PNEhXf6f9YC7tAUg0Yhyphenhyphen2_9qBFflSeNQjFo0jusRaNUD8Di1pbth5HqclYmOG8cY/s1600-h/DSCN0461.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH8kbX8OhijpP9m9881OfkV9I5De9ZY3wkgxHIrKh9rP1K40D6whugMCx-5qUmx6iuD4HknJ34284PNEhXf6f9YC7tAUg0Yhyphenhyphen2_9qBFflSeNQjFo0jusRaNUD8Di1pbth5HqclYmOG8cY/s400/DSCN0461.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5379300367239170242" /></a>Here she is posing before we left this morning.

This was her first time babysitting for us, so I got her a little early so I could show her around and run through our bedtime routine (since we'd be gone from 6 pm-12 pm). I was very specific that our kids aren't great sleepers unless you follow the routine and I showed her exactly where everything is, what time to begin, and what order to go in. I had also just cooked up some taco meat and cut up/shredded the toppings and put them on the counter so they could eat right after we left, so I showed her all of that, too. She and the girls all seemed excited and we left confident that thing would go great. The temple was wonderful as usual, and when I came in I didn't hear any crying and noticed that the young lady was sitting on the couch texting, so I thought "hooray! everyone really did go to sleep!" However, I then noticed that ALL the food was still out on the counter. Taco meat, cheese, sour cream...all just sitting there for the last 6 hours. "hmmm..." I thought, "Not good. I had cooked up a bunch of extras because we love leftovers. Tacos for lunch, taco salads... So now I'm just going to have to pitch all that meat and cheese, thanks kid." So then I asked her how it went and she was just a little too slow when she said, "It went great!" So I probed further. <br />"Everyone went to sleep just fine...no crying?" <br />Again a little too slow to answer. "Well, the baby cried a little." <br />I wanted details. "How much 'a little'. When did she go to sleep?"<br />"Umm..." she said, "at 10:20"<br />Our kids go to bed at 8. "So she cried for 2 1/2 hours?!"<br />"Just on and off." she said.<br />Then I noticed as I'm writing her the check for her 'services' I notice that the bottle and premeasured formula that I had set in the middle of the counter and shown her and given instructions on how to use it, especially if she's having a hard time sleeping she likes an extra bottle, I had told her all of that before we left, was never used. I started to swell up. I had to just get her home. It was already past midnight, and she lives far enough away that it would be an hour before I'd be back home. <br />An hour later I find that Travis has pitched/put away the food and is not any happier with the situation then I am. So I check on all three kids because if she never even gave the baby a bottle, who knows what all happened while we were gone! The older 2 were sleeping soundly, had on pajamas and were in their beds with covers on, so I guess they were alright. When I check on Lucy I notice that she did at least change her diaper before she 'put her to bed'. But didn't give her any blanket, after I took pains to make sure she understood that Lucy still likes to be swaddled when going to bed. No wonder she didn't go to sleep and just cried and cried!! Did she even listen to a word I said!? I was under the impression that she was a frequent babysitter! We've asked her to babysit before and she's always been busy babysitting for others!<br />So the next morning when I started to change Lucy's diaper and was feeling grateful that at least she HAD changed it before putting her to bed, I find that she put the diaper on... backwards.<br />I will never call that girl again!!!Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-17313992655030431952009-06-21T19:04:00.000-04:002009-06-21T21:06:03.881-04:00A Big Mess and the Miracle of the Brownies and TiesToday at church our little branch celebrated both Fathers Day and the sending off of a missionary. So after the 3 hour block we all had a potluck lunch for JR Webber (who's headed to the Frankfurt, Germany mission) and I had prepared a big crockpot full of BBQ chicken breasts (along with other sundries). However, I realized during the opening exercises that I brought in everything except the crock pot full of BBQ chicken. So without letting my honey know where I was going I dash out into the parking lot to bring in the crock pot and plug it in. (afterall, how long could that take? 2 minutes tops, right?) As I'm trying to reenter the church by openning the outer door and holding onto the crockpot at the same time, the entire crock pot of BBQ slips from my hands and crashes first into the door (spilling sauce all over it) and finally onto the cement where it breaks the crockery into a bunch of pieces and spills the chicken onto the ground. And of course the sauce goes EVERYWHERE. Up the door, into the cracks of the cement, and splashes across my shoes (which thankfully where some cheapies that I don't really care about). After picking up the largest of the broken pieces and the chicken, I figure I need some paper towels to get the rest of the mess. So, I carefully go in and take the paper towel roll out of the womens bathroom and head back outside where the ants have already discovered the feast. In my first swipe with the paper towel my finger accidently comes in contact with an exceedingly sharp bit of broken lid or crock and slices it open pretty deep. So then I had to grab a new unBBQed section of paper towel to try and keep the blood from staining the church doorway, too! Now with my left hand clenched in a ball to stem the bleeding, my right hand continues (gingerly) to scoop up the mess. When I'm almost done, one of the sisters that I don't know opens the door and of course says "Oh My! Let me go get someone!" To which I reply "No!! Please don't! Really I'm almost done, I just need a bucket of water to wash all this off the sidewalk!" (But really I'm thinking "I am mortified! And I want to keep this a secret, PLEASE don't go get anyone else!! If I ask you to do something else, maybe you'll be too busy to tell anyone!") So I finish scooping and go inside to return the paper towels to the bathroom. When I walk back past the door headed for some water in the kitchen, I notice that the dear sister had gotten her husband and they had both already sloshed 2 big pots full of water down the door and across the entryway, and were wiping the door down with paper towels to dry it. They were so sweet! They said "oh, don't worry about it honey!" and then gave me some ideas about where to check online to see if I can just buy a new crock insert instead of having to buy a whole new pot. Coshocton definately has some great people. :)<br />Then, after sacrament meeting we experienced a miracle that I'm calling the Miracle of the Brownies and Ties. The RS pres, her other counselor, and myself were responsible for gifts for all the dads today. And here it's tradition to give the dads brownies. So we each made some brownies along with some cardstock 'ties' that we colored and put a little dad poem on the back and laminated for a bookmark. Then we tied it to a zip lock baggie full of brownies for each of the dads and prospective dads. Since it's a really tiny branch, we counted up and figured that 20 would be MORE then enough since the brethren count is usually more like 14, on a good day. Unfortunately, we didn't think to take into account all the extra people a missionary going away brings in. There were 25 brethern in sacrament meeting. So immediately after the closing prayer I trot my BBQ scented sandals back to the kitchen to ask the other counselor, who was giving the baggies to the youth to had out, what we should do. She said "Well, we'll just let the chips fall where they may."<br /><br /> We ended up with 5 EXTRA Brownie bags and ties. <br /><br />And I checked. No one had left, and everyone had gotten one.<br />Hallelujia. Just like the loaves and the fishes. :) The Lord loves our hard working dads!! And so do I.

It was so stinkin cute!! We laughed, we cried, it was the best! Mostly we laughed as little girls got bored with the choreography and just sat down, or walked off the stage. Or sometimes they were so overzealous that the class helpers (who are teenage girls that assist in class and stand at the sides and do the routine so the little girls can follow along) have to intervene lest the preschooler twirl herself off the edge of the stage. It was funny and adorable stuff! And we both cried a bit during the 'daddy daughter dance'. Oh, man. A bunch of 20-30 something dads up there dancing with their little girls in tutu's to some country song about how fast they grow up. I'm seriously tearing up just thinking about it. So here are a few photos of her in her two routines. The first is a ballet routine to the song "Everybody wants to be a cat" from The Arisocats movie. The second routine is with her beginning tumbling class to "My boyfriends back". Eventually we'll find the cd that came with our video camera so I can put the video on here. Since we got a new computer we have to install the software on here. But until we find it, here are the stills.<br />Also, Aunt Heather and Uncle Mark came out for a visit for almost a week over memorial day weekend and it was a blast!! It went by way too fast! If you don't already read my sister Heather's blog, you really should. It's Hi-freakin-larious!! She has a true talent and she wrote up the experience.

One of them is that I now have an invisible 4th child. And it's not the kind you'd think. It's not the one that ate all the marshmallows after she was told to stay out of them, or hits her sister with a barbie doll, or shoved 4 DVD's into the DVD player all at once. (I think my kids are still too young to blame it on someone invisible. They just say, 'not me!') This one is a phantom anxiety that bursts forth from the back of my mind occasionally. I feel like one of my kids is 'too' quite and must be up to something, so I start to look around only to notice that all 3 of my kids are in the room with me and are simply playing quitely. I also hear her (I know it's a girl, cause that's what I have) crying somewhere in the house and when I stop and focus, I realize that....nope. Everyone's in the room with me and they're fine. Sometimes I even try to heard my I4C into the minivan after visits to the library, etc... only to look around and remember, 'oh, yeah, it's just the 3'. Very weird. Or I'm just going crazy. <br />ps-our computer broke about 6 weeks ago and Travis forbade me to go buy one without him because he wanted to pick it out. So I waited patiently for what seemed like an eternity!!! (because all of you who know my husband, know that he plans more for himself to do everyday then anyone could ever possibly accomplish, so he would never have time to go to the store with me and pick out a computer!!) He was off work all of last week and it was still the last day of his vacation before I could get him to go with me on threat of 'if you don't go with me today, I'll go by myself tomorrow and pick it out without you!!' that he finally did it. So we're back online!

We drove through 10 states, visited family and friends in 4 cities, and played in Disney World for 3 days. We started off visiting Travis's sister Heather and her kids who now live near Atlanta and we were able to stay with them for 2 1/2 days, which was SO great. We hadn't seen them in a long time and we got to meet her new guy, Michael, and his 2 kids, Victoria and Ashley. Then we drove to Orlando where Travis had continuing education classes at the Hilton in Walt Disney World, while the girls and I shopped around Downtown Disney with my sister Susy, and her husband and daughter, and her friend from when she worked at Disney, Danielle. We had a blast and bought a lot. We ate at Rainforest cafe, and got up early the next morning to do Hollywood Studios with Susy, Todd, and Lily. We got to meet Micky, and Bolt, Mitten, and Rhino. We saw several shows, danced at the parade, and rode the big rides. The next day was Sunday, so we went to church in Orlando, then drove out to the Tampa area to visit Travis's aunt Bobby and uncle Don. We had a wonderful relaxing day and hated to go back, but Epcot was calling! We got up extra early the next day for a princess breakfast in the Norway pavillion and got to meet Cinderella, Belle, Ariel, Aurora, and Snow White! The girls were practically speechless! And guess who got all teary-eyed when the first princess approached our table. That's right. Travis. The look on his daughters faces staring up at Princess Aurora was almost to much for our big softy. He sure loves his girls. :) After that we turtle talked with crush, rode some rides, and walked around the world. We got to eat in Norway, Japan, and France, all in one day. (and you know, that's what I really liked :)) We met Mulan, who was REALLY nice!! She talked with the girls for a long time. You gotta love that. But we still had one more day, so we went to bed and slept for a few hours so we could get to Magic Kingdom at the opening. Which I must say is the best idea. For some reason, about an hour after opening, the population of Main St. USA doubles! That first hour we were able to do more things then the whole rest of the day combined! And we did a lot! Rode Dumbo, Space Mountain, Pirates of the Caribean, Small World (which wasn't nearly as annoying as I'd imagined), and a bunch of others. We had a wonderful time, but were thoroughly exausted by the end. So we were glad that the next day we could just relax and drive to NC. We visited with our family there for a day, then drove to our old haunt of Greenville where Travis was teaching a class at ECU, so I met up with some friends from church while he was doing that. It was so great to see them! I forget sometimes how much I miss having friends!! :) After that we headed back to Wake Co and visited our fam some more, then headed back to Ohio after church on Sunday. It was a fabulous 2 weeks!</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666082343952671849.post-68545768061230573272009-03-11T13:11:00.000-04:002009-03-11T13:34:07.110-04:00Our Second Annual Food Allergy Testing Day!Yesterday was our second annual food allergy testing day! Holly and Lucy were both tested and the results were mostly good news. Lucy has NO food allergies!! Hooray!! Three of Holly's allergies are gone and she has two new ones. She use to be allergic to wheat, eggs, milk, soy, nuts, and fish. She's still allergic to wheat, eggs, and nuts, (and the nut, especially peanut, allergy is worse) and her new ones are dogs and mangos. I'll take those allergies to the ones she got rid of!! It's really hard to keep her away from milk, soy, and fish. Easier to steer clear of dogs and mangos! I'm so excited about this I could go dance naked in the street. But I won't. Cause it would probably scare the neighbors. Actually, our neighbors are all farm animals so they probably wouldn't care that much since they're always naked themselves. So, on third thought maybe I WILL dance naked in the street!!

We made a list in December of the things we want to accomplish in our house and it's environs in 2009, and even divided it by which of us was responsible for it and what month it need to be done. Not surprisingly, only one of the ten things on our Jan/Feb list has been finished. But it turned out SO cute!! I love my little haven. <br /><br /></div><div></div></div>Laura Crenshaw Chabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11583871553494057856noreply@blogger.com5
