Did some baking…
Made French Bread to go with dinner tonight. It looks pretty good. I can never figure out how to get a soft crust unstead of a hard shell but I know either way is fine. It smelled so good.
Also Kaylee went swimming again today. Sadly the pool was a bit cold because I had to drain it and wash it out and it didn't get a lot of sun time before she wanted to go in.
We went to the doctor and he heard a humming sound in her chest. This can be explained as normal blood flow sound, some people have it, and it's not serious. But to be on the safe side we're increasing her Diuril because her eyes and face have been puffy lately and also because of this humming. Then we'll go see him in six weeks and get some bloodwork done in 4.5 weeks to make sure everything is fine. I am really happy with this doctor. If this had been the doctor at CHLA she wouldn't have even seen anything wrong because she never in the year and a half we saw her did she order a blood test for Kaylee. It's the only way he really could be sure that the humming probably wasn't related to water retention because her blood work was normal. But it doesn't hurt to up the dose a bit and see if that fixes at the very least the puffy issue.
On the Potty Training front things have gone great today. She woke up in the morning dry and went to the bathroom right away. Then we headed out to the doctor and she stayed dry in her undies the entire time. We got home and she ran in to the bathroom and went potty. Then later she told me, "Mommy I have to go to the bathroom!" and ran in and went number two. Then she took a nap and stayed dry the entire time and got up and went potty. She hasn't yet gone to the bathroom since but she typically goes two to three hours between trips to the bathroom.
In local news it was approved that oil drilling can be done in SB again. Good for them. It should bring in some money. Some people are against it because of the environment. These are the same people that vote down taxes. So we have to get it somewhere and oil drilling it is and more power to them. I wish they could legalize Weed as well, not that I use it or think it should be, but frankly if it's no worse than alcohol why not get some money from it?
Tomorrow, Thursday and Friday I'm going to spend my workout pushing it because I have a wedding to go to and although I have no one to really impress by looking good I'd like to drop a few pounds so I can be comfortable with what I'm wearing. I mean it fit me when I was 10lbs heavier so obviously I'm not worried about that, but I don't mind looking a bit smaller in it. I'll have to figure out how to do my hair though. I also have to find the invitation. I wonder if we'll have to pay for parking? Hmmm.
Also seriously President Obama was not wearing "mom jeans" at that game. I'm not sure what people are making a fuss about.
You can change your hair, you can change your clothes…
So what to write about? Not sure really today. I should write about something thoughtful but frankly there's nothing thoughtful to write about. LOL!
Have I mentioned that I will be taking a photography course at Moorpark College starting in the fall. I think I need to reapply to join, hopefully that's not too much of a process. I don't think it takes much to apply in general so I can't imagine that reapplying would be too much. I'll go on August 10th to register and since obviously it's at the Registrar Office I should be able to determine my eligibility.
Hopefully the classes will be fun. I imagine it will be interesting at the very least.
Kaylee's potty training camp has been going pretty well. She has accidents but it's part of the learning process so I'm not worried. She's only using diapers at nap and at night and they're not diapers but rather pull-ups. She stayed dry her entire nap so that's good. I'm not expecting dryness through the night because she takes a diuretic anyhow so expecting that is more than she can do. I won't worry about night-time potty training until later on in life. Right now it's not important. I just need her doing it on her own through the day and we have six weeks to get it perfect.
Luckily too I know her school isn't insanely strict about it. They help them with their clothes and the woman I talked to when I registered Kaylee said that for the first few weeks kids come to school with two or three pairs of undies and clothes and go through them all in a day and over time they get used to school and going to the bathroom at school.
So I think it's going pretty well.
Tuesday is yet another doctor's appointment and we'll see if anything changes after that. Other than that the only big thing coming up is Dianne and Jeremy's Wedding.
I do have to officially say that if you read their engagement story that I was there when they finally decided to be boyfriend and girlfriend. I remember it quite well as a matter of fact and frankly would love to go back there and go camping again cause I think we had tons of fun! Actually their official date of being a couple is the same day that Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the Pepsi 400 in 2001. Good day me thinks all around. LOL! Anyhow I like to say that my sister and I were instrumental in them deciding to be a couple! =-P
