Few more pics
These were taken around the house when we had BBQ's and a birthday party. I love that my boys can swim, thats why we've got the pool, they enjoy it way too often. The last photo is what Pablo and I do together all the time, we go to cemeteries and photograph our family's stones or others Ive been requested to do so on from one of my web sites I use when I do Genealogy....I want my sons to know where they come from as well as I want to keep learning new things...I have a Witch from the Infamous Salem Massachusetts Witch Trials in my tree, John Proctor, his sister Abigail is my 11th grandmother back. My mother's 10th Grandmother back was Magdalena VanDerBilt, her nephew was the Commodore(rich Vanderbilts). On my Dad's side I got back to 2 different Mayflower Pilgrims, Richard Warren and Constance Dudley. Now I wish I could find out if my 3rd Grandfather back was actually with the surname HULL from Ireland or if it was changed by pronunciation or choice when he arrived to the States in 1869......Digging up bones is the only way I'll ever figure that one out.
June 20th at Action Cove Playground
Some More
The 2nd time I went to creepy part with my husband we took more photos, the BLACK shot was from my first visit when I went with Tiff and Lydia but Im putting it on this post....Ive got 2 shots from the "tunnel" which is actually astorage unit that had been built INTO a hill when the property was owned by the Maudsley Family Long before the Mansion burnt, where you see ua walking through the foundation, that was once PART of the mansion.
Some recent things and pics.
So We have gone to do a few things since school ended but not alot. We've been to a Creepy State Park once with my youngest and my friend and her daughter and once Me, Juan and the boys went. The first set of pictures was the Day I went to the creepy park with my friend Tiffany, her daughter Lydia and my son Teo.

Hmmmm..Long Time No Post
Pablo is now 6 1/2 years old, he just finished his first year of school, he will be a First Grader next year.
Juan and I discussed Divorce this past Winter but it looks like thats not happening.
Mateo had another Surgery....After the diabetes scare in 2009 I thought we were all set oh no, more things have since happened. On October 18, 2010 his 3rd birthday he sat on a Bee...not good, he got red all over, was lethargic, breathing was an issue. We called 911 and we were taken to Exeter Hospital. Where they told me he was allergic to bees, no kidding Im deathly allergic I couldn't tell my child was following in my foot steps...HELLLO......I have epi-pens on me all the time now in case of ommy emergencies or Teo emergencies.....I got stung in the face while I was pregnant with him, and the doctor told me then I HAVE TO WATCH THIS CHILD, because chances are he will be allergic to bees too since I was stung while carrying him....So i knew just didn't expect it so soon, especially not his birthday. A week after this incident with the bee Teo had his 3 yr check up, and he failed his hearing test. So in December we went to Boston, MA to see an ENT, they scheduled a hearing test. Poor Mateo had 26% hearing FUNCTION in each ear, so they scheduled tubes to go in. While setting up for his tubes to go in the Doctor asked if I had any concerns with his breathing or if he snored, when I said yes he told me, when we go in to place his tubes we will also take out his adenoids.....So December 28th, we went in for the adenoids to come out and the ear tubes to go in......They had a long chat with anesthesialogists about what to do since he had a negative reacton to anesthesia when he had his frenuum clipped(under tongue) and they decided they would give him General Anesthesia and Morphine....All worked out fine, so in the end we know his reaction to surgery the first time around was due to the use of sevofluorine and/or fentanyl. We ruled out the anesthesia(which means Dentists again YAY)......
It's summer time we have been using th pool alot...Teo is 3 1/2 he swims underwater(cant above) and he does it real well....Pablo has been swimming like such for 3 years....I made sure my kids knew how to swim young....made damn sure of it too...Teo knew how to swim last year Summer of 2010 and was on 2 1/2 at the time.
I have finished up most of what I could of school, only have an internship left, but cant do it until I get some shots(w/out health insurance they wont get done).
I have talked to people about my Life situation with the Hubby and it looks like if things fail, maybe we'll chance living in his country, but won't know til we start doing stuff....But that is still 2 years in the least amount of time away. I have met more woman with relationships like mine in recent weeks from facebook groups...So finding out some info on these Life sitches isn't too hard.
Thats it for now...See how long it take me to post again.

Life's Big Pains and my Toddler.
Oh my gosh, its been FOREVER and a Day since I wrote one of these but something has come up recently and I will have something to blog about regularly to you guys from my Baby Center groups....Not something Good either.
On November 30th, I noticed a small boo boo, on my 2 year old Mateo's stomach, after my mom and sister looked at it, we came to an agreement that it looked like the diabetic sores my Dad is prone too for being a Type II Diabetic, and my sister also has had a few, she too is diabetic, recently diagnosed. So what did I do, I had my mom test my son's blood sugar with my Dad glucose meter. It was 129, so the first thing I did was call the family doctor(hes been treating my family atleast one side for about 40 years)So they had me go in that day for 230 p. I didnt get there til 330 that afternoon, but when I got there they rechecked his blood glucose level and it came back 124. When the Doctor came in he said with the Family History he was NOT going to say my son wasn't diabetic. On one side of my family(paternal) my Dad and his siblings not all but most have Type II Diabetes(Adult On-Set) and so does my sister. But Maternally my grandmother and an Uncle were diagnosed years earlier under age 30 when any diabetes diagnoses at that time under age 30 were considered Juvenile Diabetes(Type I Diabetes), so I kind of knew we were SCREWED.
I continued checking his sugars since then, they wer continously 125-130 all but on the 6th of December(it was 95) and the 7th(it was 109). My Family Doctor told me to get a hold of a Doctor in Manchester NH that is a Pediatric Endocrinologist who was actually based out of Children's Hospital at Dartmouth Hitchcock(near the mountains to locals its known as C.H.A.D. They finally called me back today and tomorrow at 145p, we will meet with the Pedi Endocrinologist, and immediately after we will meet with a Diabetic Educator, they havent done blood work but from What my Family Doctor told the Doctor up there They are already calling him Type I Diabetic(Jevenile Diabetes)
So what I may be in for is testing his glucose up to 3 times a day, possibly giving him insulin injections daily or multiple times daily, but I am hoping they can show me how to control it for now with specail dieting....The downfall, EVERYONE else who lives in my family's house will have to eat a Diabetic Diet so I am not preparing a bunch of different meals. We already have some adjusted meals in place since my father is diabetic, but my oldest son soon to be 5 year old Pablo will have to suffer with this and so will my 12 year old neiece and 11 year old nephew.
I hear it's going to be a difficult and tryig time for my kids to get used to not eating certain things that they have been eating, and Im hoping they don't take bad to it, and like the change. I feel bad that they will lose out on soooo many things they are used to.....My boys love Pastta dishes and my youngest the diabetic loves rice dishes and we will have to LIMIT those Alot, and they both love to snack on breads....I don't know how this is going to work out, but we will soon see...Like I said this isn't a good thing to blog about regularly but it does give me something to blog about, since I havent had much else too blog about in sooooo long.
