Lindsay Cooper Catch-Up, party bus, and size 3T oh my!!!!

My long-life and dear friend, Lindsay, was in Dallas for a few days last week for work and she was kind enough to stay away from her precious family one more night to come see us. Brian made us beef tenderloin on the green egg and we just visited for
several hours. Brian too! He 'loves him some Lou Lou.' ;) Miss you so much, Lou...Thanks for coming to see us! Enjoyed it!!!
Saturday night was so incredibly fun, I can’t even begin to tell you!!!!! Our friend, Chad Bailey, turned 40 over the weekend and his wife, Donna threw one hell of a party! She rented this party bus and this was no ordinary party bus. This party bus was the most tricked out party bus I’ve ever seen! Seriously! It was the size of those smaller DART busses and was decked out to the 9’s with all this fancy lighting, plush leather seats, TV's, amazing speakers... It was fantastic!!!!! Donna worked very hard and created this phenomenal ipod play list for the bus, got loads of beer and wine, and allowed us to celebrate her husband's birthday in style! We started at The Belmont Hotel Bar, then to The Slip In to dance which was A BLAST, (I haven't been there in probably 7 years!!!) then we finished at Addison Pointe for a little Karaoke. Donna called ahead and set up this arrangement where they would let 3 people from our party jump to the front of the line and sing, which was so very nice. This is THE PLACE to go to sing karaoke so you can imagine the long line we skipped. They bumped us up to the front of the line and got us right in. Chad, of course, put on a great show with his famous 'Dead or Alive' and I sang 'Bobby McGee'. It was so fun and Donna totally pulled this off without a hitch!!! Chad knew Donna was planning something and, the day of, Donna told him people were coming over, but little did he know they would all arrive in a party bus.
Everyone met at my
house and we drove around to pick him up. He about died!!!! There were like 25 of us and everyone sat comfortably. Saturday was probably one of the most fun nights of my life. Not even kidding. As always, thanks for a great night Chad and Donna and Happy 40!!! Here's to many more and taking care of that knee!!! ;) I only took 1 photo Saturday night and it was of this MASSIVE Fosters. Delicious but headache worthy!!! :(. Kayla took a lot more so ill post those once I
get em!




Last but certainly not least: I had to buy size 3T Pj's for my daughter!! What the what?!!!?!?! My baby is growing up waaaaay too fast!!!!!!!

Fleumonia

Yep, our sick lil' munchkin has this awful concoction. Type B Flu and a pneumonia. What a rough rough road it's been and will continue to be but she came out of me fighting and will always be a fighter. Poor little thing. I would like her to stop fighting US so hard on these breathing treatments though. Bless her, she hates them. HATES.THEM. She used to do great with them and did really well with the first, and ONLY the first one, at the doctor yesterday, but not since. Not sure what happened but these are the worst part of it all. She was completely fine over the weekend, then Monday evening came and things went downhill in a hurry. Poor baby. I cried more than she did at the Dr yesterday. We were there for 5 straight hours. Back to back breathing treatments, oral steroid, antibiotic shot in BOTH her legs, (these shots hurt so bad that they have lidocaine actually in the syringe to numb the area where the shot is injected) chest X-Ray, pulse-ox 3 different times.. It was hell. She's improving but still super sick. Please pray this tamiflu and steroids/antibiotics kicks this SH*T to the curb and FAST! I hate you fleumonia! :(

Everyone who reads this blog knows that my baby NEVER sits still unless she's napping or sleeping so for her to lay in the below positions for minutes at a time is earth shattering. Brian and I for sure know she doesn't feel good when she does things like this.





Trying to find a smile and we succeeded!




My mother in law got her this nap sack for Christmas and its been perfect.






At the doctor, waiting....


Still waiting... On flu results. Snatched up another smile ;)


Back to back breathing treatments...


5 hours of this crap, I'd be out too. Poor thing, I'm tearing up rehashing all of this for the blog... Awful. Nothing worse than a sick baby. Nothing.


Last night she wanted to sit in daddy's chair.


My husband has been incredible during all this. He has cancelled patients this week to stay home with her so I could go to work, he calms me down when I freak out, he lets me cry and do crazy mother things..,,he's just great. Thanks for being my rock babe. I couldn't be the person, mother, or parent I am today without you!

Here's to a healthy baby very soon!!!

Cheers,
Lindley

Fun weekend with my In-Laws!!!

Say what?? Mamy and Slick are coming?!?!?!? Yes!!!!




Loving her mamy! She can say it and Slick perfectly now. So cute!!




Bubba's fried chicken and a booster! How is it my baby is big enough for a booster?!?!? No possible way! Slow down muffin!




Amy's famous coconut cream pie. Probably one of, if not THE BEST coconut cream pies ever! So good! I took thorough notes as she was making it but I doubt I'll ever be able to compare.




Thanks for a fun weekend, y'all. Safe travels home today. See y'all in a few weeks.
Cheers,
Lindley
