Weekly wrap up

So this past week and a half has had its ups and downs. Last Sunday Kaite and Kami had a head vs. tooth collision. Kaite bled so much. On Monday it was still really hurting her so I took her in to the dentist Tuesday morning and he pulled it. She broke off part of the root in the collision but the dentist said it was dissolving nicely. Here is a picture Ky said it is gross and I shouldn't post it. You can see the part that broke off. And her permanent tooth is already pretty far in, we are hoping there is no damage to it but we will have to wait and see.
Also on Monday my washer stopped working. I was so frustrated because it isn't even two years old. Thankfully we were able to call a local fix it man who came out and pulled one of Kami's socks out of the pump. Now I am bagging all their socks before I wash them. He was awesome he only charged us $65 and even tore the dryer apart for us (which is a lost cause). Sears wanted to charge us $149 or $215 (depending on the warranty) plus parts and time. I am glad it was something simple apparently that is a common problem with certain models.
Ash got her hair cut this week and I think she looks so cute!
We said goodbye to our cell phones and our Verizon service. We transferred over to Virgin Mobile because we got a good price. I am not fond of Sprints coverage but for now until Verizon lowers their prices we will be Sprint people. I will miss my chocolate! Mar said it is so trashy looking. I have dropped it so many times the face doesn't stay on without tape, but it still worked great!
Here are some of my pics from the last couple of years that were on my phone.
And here is a pic from last week of Adly, Kami, and Kaite watching Tinkerbell.

I think the best news of the week though is that my lymph node is shrinking! One of the docs I don't normally see put me on a new antibiotic I have never used before and my lymph node is less than half the size it used to be! I am so excited! I am hoping it will shrink completely and they won't have to biopsy it. I even called and got another round of antibiotics to see if it will keep getting smaller. The bummer is that this particular antibiotic has some very nasty side effects, but hey it beats a large needle!
They canceled church today. Winter is just hanging on up here. We were out back the other day attempting to swing and I sunk past my knees. I am envious of everyone's flowers that are already popping up and we still don't have a stitch of grass! I keep hoping we can set the trampoline up soon and the girls are ready to get their bikes out.
Ky has been working on the Kia this week. The old engine is out and the new engine is almost ready to go in. He should have it up and running the beginning of this week if all goes well. I am excited to have a car with decent gas mileage again. I filled up my Tahoe the other day and choked on the cost. We would have loved to have kept our Camry but it needed some work and it had 198,000 miles on it. We really think this Kia will be a good car plus since Ky will be driving to school and back every day we will save a ton on gas. We have decided if it doesn't run like we want we will just sell it and get something else, hey we only paid $200 for the car anyway and it will be worth tons more than that by the time he is done.
This next week will be keeping us busy too. We have parent-teacher conferences, an anniversary, a birthday, a trip to the dentist, and an S&R dinner along with our usual routine, plus I am going to try and get my hair done somewhere in there! It never lets up.
