The Reidhead Nomads: Out of Touch

I know I have been out of touch lately.. but I have a good excuse! I am visiting my family in Wisconsin... and nobody has wireless internet here! I have been able to get on the last few days, but this afternoon, im off again... until Sunday.

Sunday is the big day! I will be back in phoenix! YAY! I had a good visit, but I miss being at my home. My brothers just don't have enough patience with my kids. They need to learn to realize that 2 and 4 year olds do cry over the littlest thing!

We had quite the scare here with Jeffery. After going to the park he came home and took a nap because he was tired, which is VERY weird. Jeffery doesnt nap. When he woke up from his nap, 3 hours later, he was very disoriented, drooling, and couldn't talk. We rushed him to the emergency room. They did a CT scan of his head. He had a subdural hematoma, and a contusion! That means he had bleeding on his brain. Nobody saw him fall or get hurt, and he didn't even have any bruising! We were rushed by ambulance to a children's hospital, which was 2 hours away. When we got there, they gave him medication and put him in the pediatric intensive care unit for 24 hours. In the 2 days following his injury, he went from bad to back to his normal self. We have been watching him very closely to make sure nothing happens again. But I was so scared. I prayed and prayed that he would be ok, and he would just start being his normal loud hyper self. Since this incident, I have had a different perspective on his behavior. I am grateful for it! If he acts this way, I know he is ok. And thank-you to everyone who prayed for him while he was recovering.

Anyways, I have had alto of fun... last week we were camping. I even went tubing! I went fishing and cough 3 fish.. yay. I'm so proud of myself, haha. And since I have been here, I haven't taken a break from crafting! I will attach a pic my latest craft.... soda/beer koozies/huggies crocheted from plastic bags! My family LOVES them.. and each of them want their own. And now for a bunch of pics!.....
