Errand Day

I'm chilling in the waiting room of the Honda dealership waiting for my car to be serviced so I thought I would update everyone on our world and catch up on other blogs that I follow. I'm heading to the grocery store and Lowe's after this. Shannon has become very uncomfortable and not really able to shop for groceries so I get to pick what the Burk family eats.......:)) You can never grow tired of pizza and cookies, can you? We had a bit of rough night last night. Audrey had a seizure for the first time in several months. It happened around midnight last night, and we got really engaged pulling her through the rough patch. It's just a scary thing regardless of what experience I have of seeing your child turn blue. Audrey has a neurology appointment on Tuesday, and we need to increase one of medications. She is growing like a weed, and we have had her on the same dose for over 9 months so last night is a definite sign we need more on board. She's doing fine this morning so we'll watch her a little closer this evening. I write about this because it's just another slap in the face of what our new normal is like.
On another note, we finally chose the contractor that will renovate our house in the coming months so we are excited about it. I'm going to have to remove some trees in the back yard first, and I got to contact our HVAC guy to see if our unit will handle the addition. I also got my official deployment orders yesterday. I will heading out the last week of July so that means the rest of the Burk family will be heading to Grazing Meadows at the beginning of July. We have a lot to do, but it will be another adventure for our family. Audrey has her procedures on Thursday so please say a quick prayer for that everything will go okay...........talk to you soon.
