New hairdos, gallbladders, weird foot things, and life at the Webbs
I thought it was about time to make one of the few blog posts I do in a year! I mainly write all of this useless information down for myself. I have a feeling when I'm old and gray, I'm going to want to remember these extremely hectic toddler days so I can laugh at all of the ridiculously crazy moments we Webb folks had. Life around here has been really chaotic. So chaotic that Ive locked myself in the bathroom and taken several two hour baths to regain my sanity or what's left of it. About 5 weeks ago, I started having severe abdominal pain. I have had this pain before a few times but always choked it up to being a stomach ulcer or virus. This time, I was in so so much pain, I knew something funky and crappy was up. After a completely pointless ER trip, a trip to the urgent care, and 2 more expensive scans later (but huge thanks to my radiology friends), my gallbladder was determined to be useless. No gallstones. Just not working. Blah. Blah. So out it must come. And don't let anyone trick you with "oh it's a quick surgery in which you'll be up walking around the day of..." .........It's NOT. And it HURTS. And I was a Big Baby.
But even post surgery wasn't the worst part. The worst was the aftermath of two to three weeks of complete chaos around here. I couldn't pick up the kids. And y'all, not picking up a three year old and a 17 month old is IMPOSSIBLE. Getting them to daycare, giving baths, etc. etc. but With a lot of help from BB, Nana, and GAM, we have survived and I'm generally back to normal. Cue all the praise hands!!
Last Monday, I picked Hudson up from school and he runs to me saying "moma moma Billy Bob put gum in my hair!" I can't say his real name on the Internet, so we'll call this kid Billy Bob for now. I of course look immediately to find that Hudson in fact had a huge chunk of hardened bubble gum on the top of his pretty blonde hair. We rush home, and He flips out when I try to rub peanut butter all in it, so I had to just cut it. It looks REALLY nice now and he loves to tell the story. Just Ask him about it. If you are wondering why Billy Bob and Hudson had gum, it's because they found it on the gym floor.....and I just hope Billy Bob and Hudson didn't chew the gum before putting it in his hair! 🙈 Hudson says "it was just a assident, moma!"
The next day of the same week included a rush trip for Josie grey to the dermatologist because of a huge hard infected gross looking cyst found on her foot. I called every dermatologist in the golden triangle to get her a quick appointment, so that her foot wouldn't rot off. But by the time I get her to the dermatologist at noon, the "cyst" had popped out on its own. 🙄 The jolly old doc said "looks good to me" and out the door we went as quick as we came. I mean could she not have kept IT on her foot for thirty more minutes so I didn't look like a complete nutcase of a mom!? At least she's really clean. She is. It's weird. She loves a washcloth. When they are taking a bath, Hudson yells "Josie won't quit wiping me!, and stop Josie grey, I don't want soap!" Then she will die out in laughter. She has the whole bug your big brother thing down to an art.
Amongst all of our crazy, we have also had really sweet moments including Hudson telling me all of the awesome things he has learned in Sunday school, his first time in Davis Wade, first dove hunt with Daddy, Josie grey learning how to say the cutest "uh huh" you've ever heard, and Pete seriously swooping in and taking over the role of mom and dad when I was sick. He was awesome. I sure hope I don't forget all of the crazy laughable moments, but I want to remember the sweetness of their childhood even more! They are growing very quick and learning new things everyday. They keep us on our toes and make this momas heart so full.
