A Cookie Cutter Diva's Life

So this morning we get one of the results that came back from the emergency room trip with my youngest daughter almost 2 weeks ago and she tested possitive for Salmonella! I can't imagine how in the world she got it or how she did and no one else in our family did! A lot of people said maybe since she has a lower immune system which makes a lot of sense.
I am so upset right now at the hosptial because not a single person called us to tell us and we got notified by letter and by the time it go to us the office was closed and we were told by the emergency room we would be charged again to get results and had to come in for them! So we find out today almost a week after the results come in that she needs to be on antibiotics! I'm glad it didn't turn out much worse with waiting!

I'm in the hospital now with my 2nd child. He has been admitted for a few days to be on a on going EEG to test for possible seizure activity and see if it is, how bad it is or if it's something else.

He's absolutely loving it since he gets time alone with mommy, got to pick out a ton of snacks for the trip and got to visit their awesome playroom before being hooked up to the monitor!

Today we visited the 3rd ACR Musuem on post that they built not to long ago! They had a really awesome dress up section for the kids that they really enjoyed! It was fun for them to learn about the history of the unit!

crappy day..paid $3 for dallas paper and they only had red plum?!
Never had that happened and theyre wrapped so wasnt stole!
Walgreens wasn`t stocked on listerine and I had to go to another town close but they only had barbie so I got that but really want other for boys! I spent $18 and saved $24..
1 gilette razor
6 popcicle boxes
3 campbells soup
2 packs hair clips ( one was clearance $.60 and onr $1.29)
4 skinny cows
1 kids listerine

got the mail yesterday and lots of goodies! I had ramen coupons, coupon for a free nestles ice cream, juice box and coupons from motts, garnier moisture sample and coupon, and rebate check from nexcare bandaids

Well today was another day of trying to have some fun inside out of the heat and stay cool!

I had to go get my auto tags renewed so while we were out doing that we went over to the mall play area to let the kids run some energy out and have fun! One thing I actually do love about Lawton (there's not many lol) I wish we had a play area so bad at our mall in Texas! I'm shocked we don't!




Then we headed over to Orange Leaf to check that out since we had never been to it. It's a newer place here in Lawton with frozen yogurt a lot like Yo Yo's in Texas!

I loved how they had all these cute little chairs the kids sizes! Peyton thought that was just super neat and was swinging her feet and smiling!





The kids are outside swimming for the 2nd time today! They are really loving it and it's been nice for them to be able to have that luxury to go the pool whenever this summer on the visits home to my mom since we have to keep Peyton out of the heat more and it's been so flipping hot you want to go swimming but not stay for long so a lot more convenient being right out the back door for sure!

The kids got a cotton candy flavored frozen yogurt loaded with mike and ikes, chocolate chips, m&m's, sprinkles and all sorts of goodies!!

Yesterday my nephew came over for the day to visit and play with the kids and I took them all to chickfila to get out of this heat and play and get some ice cream! I love that the chickfila here has finally put their playground in doors! It's wonderful on days like yesterday when it's 110!

Today's Saves..
Saved $1 on my special k chips today and $1 for my mom on her dinner rolls at walmart.
Got my mom free lunch at chickfila, a free sandwhich for me (paid for fries and drink), and all the kids free ice cream.
Then I went back to Walgreens to get another razor for hubby (trying to stock on them this week) and I saved $54 at walgreens.. spent $36! I got..

fusion razor
aveno bath soak
aveno wash
aveno lotion
2 large packs of twizzlers
4 axe body sprays with a mini body spray (my 8yr old thinks he NEEDS it)
4 axe shower gels

So yesterday we pulled out "Visit Nana" from the summer fun jar as a nice surprise for the kids since I didn't have to babysitt for a friend anymore and we could go back to original plans and make one last trip to visit home before summer was over!

So we drove to Oklahoma and made it here around 5:30pm yesterday and surprised my parents and then went out to dinner.

Today we went to see



at the budget theater here that is $2 admission during the day and on Tuesdays buy one get one free for military! It's right accross from my parents house and I grew up going there so it's always fun taking the kids.

The kids have been begging to see it and we met up with a good friend of mine here Misty. It was a pretty good movie!

They have already gone swimming 3 times since being here and worn themselves out! Last night a few hours after the car ride, this afternoon and tonight lol they love having a pool in the back yard when we are at my parents!
