Christmas Parties and Emergencies Rooms







So today was my mom's Christmas party so I spent most of the day baking so that she would have some deserts, especially since that is what I was asked to bring. The elves were awesome enough to make the fudge that I needed made last night. I love it when they help out!







Since the elves made the chocolate fudge I was able to make peanut butter fudge. We also made egg nog cookies, which are amazing! We even made chocolate chip cookies. All of the baking brought me to the realization that a new stove really was going to mean I had to learn to bake again, my times were all off. But I am getting back on track. We also melted some white chocolate, dipped marshmallows in it and then dipped them in sprinkles. These were so much fun for the boys.







Danny's knee was not looking better and the red was starting to spread by the time we headed to moms. Laurie was still there fortunately and she kept a close eye on it. Mom's party is always nice because we are able to get together and enjoy each other. My Godparent's are also there, and they mean so much to me, I wish that we saw them more. After watching Danny's leg and overall temperament we knew we had to call the doctor, we were trying to make it till in the morning so we could see Dr. Lytle. When the nurse finally called me back, I had to call twice, they said to take him to the ER.







When we got to Children's there was nobody there. We never even sat down in the waiting room. We went straight to a room the nurse was there in a few minutes and said the doctor would be right in, but then the ambulances came and right in turned into almost three hours before we saw the doctor, then there was another hour because she got another doctor's opinion and did an ultrasound of his knee. She lanced it and gave us antibiotics for the cellulitis (sp?). Now we wait and see and pray! Danny was so brave and I am so proud of him!







We left the ER and got John Michael's from my mom's and finally got home after an extremely long day.
