Chicken Pox and Mr. Giraffe
So I get a call last night around 9:30 and it's one of Orion's teachers......"Hi Kristi I just wanted to let you know Shine came into school and has chicken pox". Well isn't this fantastic was my thought. So Shine is just a bit older than Orion and they play together all the time. So of course I google CP (gotta love google) and this is what it says....(Chickenpox is very highly contagious. It is easily passed between members of families and school classmates through airborne particles, droplets in exhaled air and fluid from the blisters or sores. It also can be transmitted indirectly by contact with articles of clothing and other items exposed to fresh drainage from open sores.
Patients are contagious up to five days (more commonly, one to two days) before and five days after the date that their rash appears. When the sores have crusted over, the person is usually no longer contagious.) Again my thoughts well fantastic. So no sign yet but I'm pretty certain they will both end up with them, oh did I mention last time we were there Shine was hugging and kissing Rio. Some of you may be thinking well don't they immunize kids for CP, yes yes they do and my thoughts to that are ridiculous, but that would take a whole day for me to even touch on this subject so I will wait for that topic until I have some lame day with nothing else to talk about hahahahahah ya right like that will ever happen. Either way I am prepared lets just get it over with!
So those of you that don't know about Mr.Giraffe, Mr.G for short he is/was Orion's best friend. We got him at the Zoo when Orion was one and he has been everywhere with us since. Mr.G was gross but soooo very loved. We went to campus lake and he never made it back. My in-laws and I have searched everywhere and still no Mr.G. I think Orion may have thrown him out the window not knowing the consequences : ( Honestly I was more heart broken than he was and refused to give up. Yep I cried, it was one of those things I wanted to keep for him forever. He has asked for him quiet a few times. So being that crazy mom I started making phone calls, first the zoo and they don't sell it anymore but I talked to the manager and he was going to call the distributor. Second, a major search online but only could find the big one, ordered it anyways lol. Third, I had got the name of the company that made it K & M International. So I called them and talked to a very nice woman who explained to me they did have it but you had to buy 40 of them. You got it I bought 40 with no hesitation! Hahahahah gotcha, no I didn't do that but I am not going to say for one second I wouldn't have. I explained the situation and the woman talked to her supervisor, they are sending me another Mr.G just one and for free! A huge shout out to K&M International! It's still not the original but hey we may go through quiet a few Mr.G's over the years, maybe I should have bought them in bulk now that I think about it. You will be missed Mr.Giraffe : (
Oh yes so yesterday I told you about Rio taking about 6 steps. Well he officially started walking yesterday! Alright have a wonderful day! I must get this house cleaned before the Hubby gets home today!

Gosh I was excited to start his blog, not really sure why lol. I figure what the heck might as well give it another try.
So Rio is taking steps about six at a time and so very proud of himself. In the very near future he will be running I'm sure. Boy wont that be fun two running! Speaking of running for some reason Orion has started running away from me. I mean they all go through that phase but I thought we were long past it, apparently not it's like he goes deaf when I tell him to come here. So very frustrating, I'm not on the spanking band wagon but I wont lie it crosses my mind at those moments.
Orion is talking more and more every day, he goes on these rants of excitement where he is telling a story but you can only understand a few words out of all of it, so cute. Orion talking brings me to another story, well maybe we should just change his name to mocking bird ughhhh. Okay so I am not going to say I do not curse because honestly I tend to have a mouth like a sailor, I know I know I'm working on it. I am more of a G/PG sailor now. With that being said, in my defense I'm sure has heard me say words here and there but never repeated them. Well Orion LOVES baseball, love is actually an understatement. So I bought him The Sandlot movie (one of my personal favorites) he could watch it all day if I let him. All of a sudden he is saying the sh** word all the time and even in the right context. So of course I'm like crap (not really the word I used lol) I've really gotta watch it. Turns out in the movie a KID says the word so he picked up on it right away. What a predicament do I not let him watch it no I don't have the heart to take his favorite movie away, I mean the damage is done right? He has slowed down a bit on saying it. He has also picked up on my road rage, geeze I am making myself sound horrible, road rage and talking like a sailor. I swear I am a fantastic mother! Anyways so we are driving down the highway and there is this car driving in the passing lane (big pet peeve) so I just do a ughhhh and Orion proceeds to yell get outta the way guy and then gibberish LANE which I'm assuming was wrong lane. I had to laugh at least he didn't use any other choice words.
