Halloween, Surgery, Oh Mom!

To sum up the past few weeks would be hard. So many ups and downs. Isn't that just life though? Ups: Halloween was a blast. My two sweeties were dinosaurs. The cuteness was just too much:). Also, I love this time of year! November 1st marks Christmas music time, lots of cooking, family time, and traditions. Downs: After 8 months of intermittent pain, my gallbladder is coming out this Tuesday. Apparently, it is full of sludge...yuck. I am not supposed to pick up anything over 10lb for a week (Yeah right...do they know I have two kiddos?!?!?!). Due to all this...I have not been my sharpest for sure. For example...I locked myself out of the house with Cora asleep in her crib. Mom fail. Lastly, Cora's eating has kind of plateaued...still trying to get the chewing thing down. However, none of this down stuff is a crisis. At least I have a home that is not flooded, running electricity, and a house that is in tact. It is amazing what I can take for granted sometimes. Life is good...but a few prayers for a quick recovery would be appreciated!:).
