Wow, it has been a while since I have written a blog post. Much has happened on Chase St lately.
First off... I no longer work for the Dispatch Center. I was hired by Infitech. A local IT company. Anything technology related we handle. From residential to big business. So now I am trying to learn as much as I can. You only learn so much in school. On the job training is where it is at. I have been at Infitech for a good month now. Things are going great. One of the best parts of it all... WEEKENDS OFF! Spending more time with Darlene and the kids is awesome.
You may or may have not have heard Violet spending a night in the hospital. She had a fever, we took her to the doctor and they needed to run some tests. She had a high white blood cell count so they admitted her. Once of the worse things ever is to have to hold your daughter down as she is crying so hard that she gags on her own drool while they try not once, but three times to get an IV in her tiny little hand. I hope I never have to see that again as a parent. We were able to leave the hospital the 2nd night after she had a 2nd round of antibiotics. It was determined that she had a UTI. We then had an ultrasound done a week later to determine if things were moving the way they were supposed to be. Thankfully they are, but at that time it was determined that she has an enlarged kidney. Most likely from the UTI, but we are meeting with a specialist to just double check things.
I felt so bad for Violet. To comfort herself she sucks on her left hand, and that is the hand they had all bandaged up. She was so frustrated. But we were still able to get some smiles out of her!

Those are the two main things that have happened with us recently. We have been enjoying the nice weather, taking the kids for walks and checking out things in the yard. We are excited to take them to the lakes and pools this summer! They love bath time!
Hope to post more again soon! Thanks for reading.
