The drugs that help us?

I can remember so well the birth's of my children, they were some of the most exciting moments of my life but I can remember the tense moments wondering if they would come out with 10 fingers, 10 toes, you know the feeling just wanting a healthy baby. I can't imagine what parents go through when they are faced with a child that has birth defects. It was recently discovered that a drug used for treating epilepsy and migraine headaches may also have caused birth defects in the children born to mothers that took the Topamax drug. A Topamax lawsuit was recently formed to help families that are faced with this issue and hopefully help them gain some closure to their challanges.

Poor BBQ

It was a sad day recently when we discovered that our BBQ has seen better days. I thought it still had some life in it but we had to make a decision. With junk day coming up we took it to the curb to see if anyone wanted it or to have it picked up. We are starting to shop around to see what we can find and hopefully we'll have something all set up very sson.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to my oldest, Jay he is turning the big 15 today and sadly he is away on a school trip and has been gone the last 4 days. We expect him home tonight around 8pm and are all looking forward to see him to wish him a happy birthday and to spend some time with him. Happy Birthday big guy.

I want an xbox

I can't wait for the Playstation Network to come back online, it has apparently been down for weeks now and trust me I have heard about it multiple time everyday from my son. He has convinced himself he needs and Xbox now because he is going into serious withdrawl from not having his online play. I have heard it will be up tommorrow so let's hope for the sanity of our home that it really does happen this time.

Delicious

We were off to DQ tonight after a very busy day with the kids, I tried the Oreo CheeseQuake blizzard and it was sooooo goood. I enjoyed every bite right down to the end the delicious cheese cake pieces were a very nice added bonus to my regular oreo flavor blizzard treat. The kids enjoyed their different flavors too, yummy

How do you trust

How do you trust your doctors when they want to prescribe drugs for you. We are always hearing about the next drug that has been found to have terrible side effects that no one could for see. It makes you wonder what the process really is to make sure that new drugs on the market are really safe for human consumption. The latest case I have heard about is the Topamax lawsuit which is been filed based on birth defects in babies whose parents took the Topamax Drug for Epileptic Seizures and Migraines. The birth defects include cleft lips and palets causing terrible phycological effects on the parents and children that are effected by this drug.

Lego club disappointment

The boys were very excited to sign up for the lego club that was offered free in their lego toys. Now the club said they would get a magazine in 6-8 weeks. They filled out their forms and sent them in in September when they went back to school. They figured they would have their membership kits by November at the latest but as the months went by I had to let them know that I didn't think they would get them. Finally the other day one magazine arrived for Blake, but nothing for Kohl. It took 9 months not the 6-8 weeks they advertised so it was very disappointing. I hope someone from Lego sees this and makes changes to their program.

What a wet spring

OK, I'm all for a spring rain but really 2 weeks straight of rain is a bit much. I think we have had enough already, now it might not be that bad if the temperatures were a bit warm too. We have been struggling with temperatures in the single digits and it is way too cold. I'm tired of using the heat in the house to keep from freezing, normally we would have had it shut off over a month ago.
