The Clines: Our week May 20th

This week ended up being a crazy one.

I got a call about 10:15 from Casen's speech school nurse that he was in a lot of pain and unable to go to class. She said he was writhing around and very uncomfortable. All of the pain was on his left side so shouldn't be anything like appendix. I gathered up my stuff at work and picked him up. The poor guy was obviously in pain and burst into tears as soon as he saw me. He hurt so bad he couldn't walk to the car. I took him home to get some pepto and rest on the couch. I scheduled an appointment with the pediatrician for 1. But shortly after getting home I decided we needed to go to the ER. If he was really having that much pain then the pediatrician wouldn't be able to do much so why wait for that appointment.

I had to carry him into the ER and I looked like a hot mess with my big boy, but mommas do what mommas gotta do. He continued to be in obvious pain that would come and go in waves where he would just cry. It was so heartbreaking so I called Kyle to come be with us. I just needed him there.

Right before Kyle go there he said he had to pee really bad so we went to the restroom. Then he was suddenly fine and could walk back to the room by himself. Smiled for a picture without me asking and got engrossed in watching the ipad.

They took xrays and results were backed up bowels and gas (he was full of shit). Treatment was miralax at home and he should be all better within 3 days. Since he was no longer in pain we took that treatment and headed home.

Our Casen is such a tough kid so seeing him in that much pain really worried me and that is why we took him to the ER. Everyone who knows me know we don't go to the doctor that often so I was definitely worried. It is silly that it was just gas pains but I was glad it wasn't anything more serious.

On the way home it was time to pick up the other two.

Tuesday

Seriously we are so blessed with these 3!

I took Tuesday off and enjoyed field day with Cooper. I am going to share all of that in a separate post because it is a lot of pictures. I loved spending this time with him and seeing him with his friends.

Tuesday evening Chloe and I took Casen to his last soccer game of the season. She liked hanging out with mommy...literally

By the time we got home she was tired, hungry, and cranky (who can blame her)

Wednesday morning Cooper got in some snuggles

And watching mommy get things done before heading to daycare

She loves playing on the floor with her friends first thing each morning.

I love racing home to see all of my babies, but let's be honest, she is the one that is excited to see me too.

That night we decided to have oatmeal for the first time. I never rush to do oatmeal with my kids. I have been blessed with good sleepers that didn't cause us to try it sooner.

However at first she was more interested in her brothers getting popsicles

Despite this face she gobbled it right up.

Thursday morning Casen had to check on his girl.

And Cooper had to get his turn (seriously they love her so much)

That night Casen wanted to help feed Chloe and he did awesome. He was so attentive and sweet.

And then it was Friday. I took the day off again to go to Casen's pre-k graduation. Kyle originally took the morning off but ended up taking the whole day with us.

Here is Chloe in her holiday Chloe's for Memorial Day Weekend

LOVE this picture

I will do a separate post for Casen's pre-k graduation because again lots of pictures.

Casen's graduation and Cooper's 2nd grade awards were at the exact same time so we didn't get to be there for Cooper. Luckily another mom took some pictures for me.

Cooper had a great teacher and a great year. He got AB honor roll (darn math) and citizenship.

Afterwards we grabbed lunch and then headed to Alley Cats for some fun.

Then we raced back home. I dropped off the boys and picked up Chloe. We went to watch Mac and Tinsley's gymnastics meet. They did so good but I forgot to get any pictures of them. My sister took these of Chloe.
