Nan made SPLASH! with the kids!
Month: May 2010
"Free" bowling.
Free bowling cost me $34.62!
$16.20 for shoes for 4.
$18.62 for lunch.
The website said they opened at 9AM. I got there at 10:30AM and the manager was just letting an employeee in. Turns out the open at 11AM. He let us come in and opened a lane for us. Really nice man. Super nice.
I ended up buying lunch, because they ate breakfast VERY early and itwas not substantial. The kids’ meals were $2.99, but small. The manger was SO awesome!!! He came to the snack bar and pulled out EVERY item that was on the kids’ menu so I could read ingredients. The hot dog rolls and hot dogs were safe for Beau. 🙂
I got nachos for myself, and a Pepsi, because they were the cheapest thing on the menu!!
Nan came by to say, “Hi,” on her way to the MD and she bought a sandwich and took pity on me and gave me half.
The boys had an awesome time. Poor Champ really wanted to win today. He came in second place by ONE pin on the first game and by 4 pins on the second.
Check out the video! Angel did this little dance every time she got up to roll her ball. We all caught on and watched for it. Then Skeezix started to create her own dance.

Some catch-up photos
These are of the girls singing in their last presentation of the year for CBS.
Look at my precious Bug.
And this is me doing some fancy tricks to try to get Scooter to turn.
I guess I should just be thankful that JB only took photos of this one move…
there were MANY more, I promise you.
But I would never have shared them, anyway!
FILLED WITH PRAISE & THANKSGIVING!!!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS!!!
PRAISE GOD WITH ME!!! \o/
THE BABY FLIPPED!!!
It took two hours for things to get set up, arranged and otherwise prepared.
It took about 4-5 minutes to flip the baby!
It took over 5 hours for me to feel my legs enough to walk out of there!
God’s hand was SO SO SO SO evident!! He blessed me so abundantly!
A Christian, homeschool-dad was my anesthesiologist [from Charity LEAH]!
My nurse was the wife of the Young Life director for the west side of Rochester!
The doctor [perinatologist Dr. Daniel Grace] that filled in for my doctor has lots of experience with versions and clearly liked and believed in this procedure to avoid surgery if possible.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
I am so touched for the prayers lifted for Scooter and I.
Now, if you are so led… pray s/he doesn’t FLIP BACK! 😉
[I was told that possibility is pretty low.]

A Breech-Busy Week!
Last Thursday, during an U/S after my routine appointment, it was confirmed that Scooter was Frank Breech in his/her presentation.
Since that time I have:
prayed without ceasing
seen an accupuncturist
went swimming
seen a chiropractor
done a ba-zillion weird exercises
had Beau sing into my belly through a paper towel tube [this was the most successful at-home attempt!]
cried
Today I go in to the hospital to attempt a “version” to try to turn the baby from the breech position to a vertex one.
**If the baby becomes distressed during the procedure, I may require an emergent, “rescue,” C-Section that could leave me with extensive abdominal wall trauma in an attempt to save the baby. Please pray that this does NOT happen and that our baby would tolerate the procedure well.
**If the baby does not turn tomorrow, but avoids crisis, a C-Section would be scheduled the following week. This would still give the baby some time to turn on his/her own, but as he/she becomes bigger it may be more difficult.
**Because our 2nd child [Champ] was a C-Section, if this baby requires a C-Section, I would be committed to having any further children surgically as well.
Please pray that this would go well, that our baby and I would be safe. That we’d be bold witnesses for Christ in every encounter. That our other kids would be safe and blessed as their world has been a little unsettled this week.
