Seventeen...
Well, I was called "a kidney stone makin' machine" today by my urologist.
I have my ct scans. I can count 17 stones in one image. SEVENTEEN STONES! Some of them are HUGE. I have to get an xray done to get the final count on the stones, but there will most likely be more than the 17 I counted today.
A bit of bliss:
I was giving Simone a bath, and my little shadow (the blond one) was helping. Natalia is my greatest helper. She gets the washcloth from the drawer, lays the towel out, and washes Simone's belly during all her baths. Today Talia was dumping water on my arm and then it would spill on to Simone. Both of my girls got the giggles. It was so funny. We all kept laughing, until I had tears in my eyes and my cheeks hurt from smiling. The little giggles from Simone kept us all in stitches for a long time. Gasping for breath Talia said, "I guess I got the giggles out." Oh, bliss at its best!

My word! Seventeen?!? I'm so sorry! That must really hurt. I hope they just disappear!
We drove by your old house tonight and I noticed that Wyatt's room is still the same color. Oh, that makes me miss you.
I loved your "bliss" giggle fit! So cute that Talia got all her giggles out!
17!!!! That is crazy, I guess you are a kidney stone making machine. You guys have such a funny, silly house... how wonderful to have a giggle moment with your girls
Jeri I always thought you rock.
Oh! That IS bliss. So cute. My kids just come over during the bath and make baby talk at her and get in my way. I should try letting them help.
Um, NO fun about those stones. What is up with that??? WHY? It's horrible. I hope things come out alright (whoa, bad pun).
p.s. Um, on my PW blog I linked to one of Simone. I hope you don't mind. I'll have to talk to you about the "rules" of such events.
ugh, jeri. i have kidney stones, too (what a stellar thing to have in common!!). i passed my first stones 3 days after i had Keegen. BLECK! i have a CT scheduled to count mine on Monday. i hope none of yours start to travel!...
beautiful pics in your previous posts. Love the one of Simone on the hardwood floor. LOVELY!
UGH! 17! :(
I dont even know what they do for that? do they have to surgically remove them all?
And your bath story is the sweetest! :)
I'm glad that post could end on a happy note - I'm so sorry!!
I gave you an award :) Here it is, don't feel obligated to participate, I just wanted you to know I love your blog :)
Oh Jeri, I'm so sorry about the stones! What a drag.
Love the bath story with your girls, little moments to treasure!
Oh good gracious. You aren't kidding you're a little machine. There's got to be something useful you could do with them to make a little profit from your misery - maybe a new jewelry fad?!? ;P. Kidding.
Oh I am so sorry about the kidney stones!! Only you could talk about bliss in the face of 17 stones! I so hope everything turns out okay and involving the least amount of pain possible!!
