So, here we are in the middle of April.....WOW....and I'm starting to calm down a bit over my exuberant and I failed to realize at the time, very public freak-out a few weeks ago. The fact this blog can be viewed by the entire world kinda was lost on me when I submitted my last entry...insert appropriate blond joke here! However, it did in turn provide me with some amazing support the likes of which I will never forget and will keep close to my heart when my defeatist attitude rears its ugly head.
I haven't wanted to post because if I posted another "I'm gonna post Easter pictures on my NEXT entry" one more time, I would no doubt be on the verge of another lethal attack of the self-deprecation monster who is always ready to pounce! So alas, here are the adorable pics of my little one on Easter. The bunny in the stroller is her newest "baby". The picture on the rock in the back garden was completely uncoached, which is amazing how natural she is getting at posing. It might have had something to do with her complete infatuation for this dress she picked out. She is learning early the wiles of fashion and it's effect on your demeanor, that's my girl.
She's doing well with her petit mal seizure episodes. She'll have one and instead of freaking out and asking her if she's OK like an overheated mother hen, I just give her a squeeze until it passes and compliment her for her bravery through it. She has been responding to this very well. Her neurologist, Dr. Ellis, wants to do a sleep study on her to see if she is breathing properly at night. She'll stay overnight fully hooked up and monitored. We'll see how that bodes over with our little royal. Maybe it will give us some more clues as to what caused her epilepsy. My cousin in Wales let me know recently that my grandmother's brother had a bout with epilepsy as a child. He grew out of it and became, wait for it, a rocket scientist who worked on the Queen's Concord! Wow, good genes wouldn't you agree?
San Antonio is in full swing Fiesta right now. It is a 2 week long celebration all over town. There are tons upon tons of activities for the entire family. Parades, art shows, carnivals, concerts, food-food-and-more-food, and lots of crazy things to get yourself completely tuckered. I work downtown SA, and my building is right on the riverwalk. Every year, there is a river parade where, instead of floats, they decorate the river tour boats and go down the river. The building will be having a reception and opening the back lawn facing the river for its tenents. I am thrilled because we've never seen the river parade. It is usually way to difficult to get a good spot to see everything and too expensive to buy the seats in front. Last night my firm had a Fiesta client reception which was just incredible. They went ALL OUT! We had a live guitarist, a charicture artist and Fiesta metals. Every event you go to, you can get a Fiesta metal. Some people make it their mission during Fiesta to get as many metals as possible. It is a lot like those twits in high school who carried around all those carnations to show how many people like them! We are going to do the Pooch Parade too. It's a parade just for dogs. It's our first year for this one too. Leahness looks forward to the Southwest Art School festivities every year, they are this weekend and we are taking off to Harlingen to see Chris' parents. I'm sure we will find plenty of other festivities to enjoy.
That's it! Love to everyone!
