Today is Landen's "GOTCHA DAY" ! It is hard to believe it has been 5 yrs that he has been home.On the other hand it feels like he has been here forever.He has blessed us so much with his sweet nature.We are celebrating with one of his favorite foods shrimp and fries he also got a small cake just for him and a new toy.I asked him what today is after we told him a bit ago and he said my gotcha day.What a smart cookie he is.I love this spunky bubbly little boy who has brought so much to our family.He has taught me so much and is so amazing.We Love you Landen Le Roy Shiv Miller.

LAYED BACK WEEKEND!
Landen is feeling much better and has been playing all day and eating everything that is not nailed down.I on the other hand am miserable.I went to bed at 6 pm last night and did not wake today until 10 30 am.My sweet husband got up with the kids and let me rest.He even held all phone calls.He knew how sick i have been.
The girls went to eat Chinese and are going to the movies.They are bored so i gave them Money and told them to have a nice time.Michael,Landen and myself are hanging out here at home.I am going to a little cleaning an some dusting.
I am going to work on some crafts later...Have not been able to do it with this herniated disc but it is getting so so much better.
I hope this is the week our Visas come to us and that we get good news soon to travel.I wanna meet our little man.Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

ITS H1N1
We are still struggling with Landen's sickness.I took him to ER last night after 2 weeks of this craziness of him beng sick.Landen does have H1N1.Its a horrible virus.Today Landen was very Lethargic and slept alot.He is running a 100 temp which i gave him Motrin for.He loves hot tea with honey so he has been drinking quite a bit of that .It helps his sore throat
Alltogether there is 180 children out of school with H1N1.I hope the numbers dont go up or there will be no more students at school at all.I have a sinus Infection myself and cant see the doctor until Monday.So i keep doing home remedies and taking sudafed.It is starting to break some.My throat is still sore though and the ringing in my ears is getting to me.
No news yet on when we will travel for our Jax.I am happy that Landen will be over the H1N1 flu before Jax gets here.I have not got much accomplished at home.I am doing well to throw a load of wash in with being sick.
Our plans for the weekend have been cancelled with Landen and I both sick.My parents are picking the girls up and taking them to a birthday party on Sunday.
My parents came by yesterday and My wonderful dad put the mirror up in the bathroom for me.My husband hung my curtain in the new Laundry room too.We hope to move the washer and dryer to the new laundry room this weekend.We had to get a plumber out here before this could be done.He will be here tomorrow and said it was an easy fix.I hope he is right.
That's about it in the Life of the Miller household the teens are all doing fine.My husband has been sick today i hope he isn't getting the h1n1.
We are all excited about getting Jax home and cannot wait for the day to come.I am praying its very soon i cant wait to meet the youngest Miller child.

BETTER SAFE THEN SORRY!
The swine flu has hit our schools with such a force here.70 kids are OUT sick with swine flu.I am sure Landen had this too.He went to the doctor and she put him on ANTIBIOTICS which did not make him better at all even the congestion syrup she gave him did not help.I did keep him home today as his nose is really really nasty and he still seems to have a touch of sore throat.
My older kids...I don't want to sound like i am a germ phobic but 70 Kids in this small farming community is like more the HALF the students here.I sent each of my children with a pack of Kleenex to cover their face with.I also got them all alcohol gel to keep in pockets and wash their hads often with it.I told if you touch door handles,Lockers,desk chairs anything use the gel.I told them not to get close to any students and do not use the water fountain.
I don't know why they don't shut the school down for a week and disinfect it that way.Instead of keeping it open and risking children.If you don't send them you get threatened with Truancy.What do you do?I may have to risk getting in trouble just to keep my other 3 kids from getting sick.
This sickness was very violent on Landen.He is still not 100% but the fever is gone.He would sleep and not eat.I had to force fluids on him.I just could NOT get him to wake up for anything.His throat was sore and he has a nasty yucky runny nose.His teacher called today to check on him.I told her my fear of sending him back.She agreed that school should be closed and told me not to worry about sending Landen knowing he is sick.I told her he was better just has a goopy nose but am not comfortable with sending him yet.She agreed their are 6 students in her special needs class and all she has today is ONE.Yes One the rest are out with this illness.
Please pray that this horrible virus leaves our school and children be.
