BACKSTREET BOYS!!

I am sooo very very excited, Tomorrow I am buying tickets for my sister and myself to go see the Backstreet Boys and NewKids on the Block August 7th at the JLC! For those of you that don't know me well, I am a BSB fanatic! I LOVE BACKSTREET BOYS! I listen to their music all the time, my room at my old house was covered wall to wall with their posters, they were all I talked about until Derek came into my life lol. I have been to 3 concerts of theirs. This is big big news lol. I cannot wait to go!
God I love my husband for being so wonderful and always telling me to do things that I love.

Reiko has been so sick lately, this damn pneumonia, and yes it is pneumonia again, is just kicking his butt. He is on Amoxicillin and Steriods to help his lungs, when he gets those into his body he is a completely different baby, he actually smiles at us and doesn't act sick. But most of the day he just sleeps and is not happy..I don't blame him, its been awful. I have had to put on a 02 Saturation monitor on his foot the last two nights, and earlier it was in the low 80's...it should be 95-100...I wonder what the doctors will say when they see the results. I have been getting more and more worried with how this pneumonia has been affecting him..but I know he is a fighter, he always has been. His birthday was very low key, we got home at 7am from the hospital so I slept til 130 and he slept all day, we went to Oma's to celebrate with cupcakes but Reiko was to sick to care, and we all just kinda did our own thing...that night we had Respite Care so Derek and I got some good sleep.

Kai has been going to bed much much easier now, I added a clock to his routine, after his shows are over I say "lets go over to the clock now" and we watch the seconds clock and once it hits 60 seconds he knows its bedtime! It has been working awesome and he has been great. Last night though he woke up at 12 and tried to come to bed with me, Derek was home so I said no, and he was crying, so Derek came upstairs and Kai went down to watch some tv with daddy and they both slept downstairs, Kai on his fold out spiderman couch and daddy on the regular couch since Kai would not let him leave and he said Reiko was up every half hour, most likely because of the steroids. Kai, my mom and I went to London yesturday to pick up some paperwork and after we went to the mall and I bought Kai this fake hamster and track that he loves, and then we headed over to the playscape and he played for about 2 hours there, then we headed home, he was great all day, even at East Side Marios! Today Oma and all of our little family went to some liquidation stores and Kai picked out this new toy that is kids wood that you get a little saw with and stuff like that, to build "wooden" toys with, but really the wood is styrofoam lol. He carried it around the whole store and was so excited to buy it with his own money, but really he only had .15 cents on him and we knew that would not cover it lol. He was very proud though to buy it! It was adorable! He hasn't played with it yet though because once we got back from the stores he went straight to Oma's for the night. The second liquidation store was awesome, I bought my first Columbia jacket, I have always always wanted one! Its a black and pink spring jacket! sooo pretty! and I also got a baby blue sweater! Derek got a sweater as well! It was a good day! Derek and I spent the afternoon watching movies with Reiko, well he mainly slept, so we watched Red Riding Hood which was actually way better than I thought it was going to be, and I did the domestic stuff, cleaned the bathroom, bedroom, livingroom and laundry,...but those darn dishes did not get done...guhh...tomorrow...and I will finish the laundry as well too.

Well we got Reiko's Child Disability Tax forms filled out and now we can file our taxes! I hate this time of year for taxes! I was going to say something and I have forgotten...

I have been very bad for eating the last few days, tomorrow I am back at the eating right and working out though..I need to, I do so good and then I always back track..so now its time to kick it up if I want to be in the 160's by april! Ok since I am totally forgetting what I was going to say since my Lorazapam has sunk it and making me sleepy..I will write more tomorrow.
Take Care everyone.
