I have been trying to create some exemplary title to this post just to portray the emotional ride of this past week. Can't think of one-my mind is mush. So quickly I will condense the madness of the past week into a few short sentences and pictures and forgo the minute details and give the great overhaul.
Last Tuesday Ivey had another seizure. For the record, I should not get so worked up over them – they are here to stay- just part of it. We just need to nail down what and why these might be happening. For now, they are happening because of her genetic condition, which basically say ‘no one knows’. However, for the record, they scare the daylights out of ya. Hence, we (me, Matt and Ivey) spent the day here in the ER. Thanks to M. and T. for picking the boys up from school. Wednesday while I was taking Walk to school, she had another one. Therefore the neurologist wanted her at the Scottish Rite ER. Hence, we (me, Stacy and Ivey) spent the entire day and evening in the Scottish Rite ER. Matt and my dad held down the home front. Thursday early am the neurologist decided he wanted Ivey in his office, which is across the street from Scottish Rite. This time we (me, my dad and Ivey) spent the day in his office and in traffic while Beth and Willie held down the home front. Friday I canceled her appointment at Scottish Rite which had been planned for two months. Enough is enough.
That brings us to this weekend. Walker had one heck of a birthday weekend. So, yes we are exhausted, but wouldn’t trade it for the world.
Day One:
The Tailgate
Going for BugJuice
The Game
Cake made by Gran-Gran (my dad)
Day Two: A few of Walker's friends from school
Back in the saddle again.......
Can you guess which book we are reading right now?
You got it. It's Wilbur. We decided to name the spotted pig Fern, and she is a he. 
We even had chicks. Surprisingly they all made it through the day. Even though Walker tried to wring one's neck. Literally - he almost loved them to death.
