We have had a fun couple of days. We really needed it! Since Maddy's surgery, we have been home and going stir crazy! I needed the time out!

Getting nervous
Wow, with this heat, I am starting to get nervous about my first 5k race! Will I be able to run in this heat? I am having a horrible time running on the treadmill for 3 miles. Maybe if I have a little bit of air hitting me, I will be better. I am hoping to eat very healthy this week and get my body ready for this. I am trying to put together a menu for myself for this week. It is looking something like this:

Father's Day and a race!
We had a wonderful Father's Day. I always feel so good after spending time with the family. Saturday night, we let Jeff open his cards and present so he would have the snacks for the baseball game that night. He loved it!

I hope everyone has a great week!

Stamps for Sale!
I am selling some of my stamps to save up money for our Disney Trip. We had to use our Disney fund for Maddy's surgery, but we are still wanting to take our kids to Disney. I hate getting rid of them, but we need the money at this time. Thanks and check out my items!

Pink!
Maddy is feeling better today. She is eating well, drinking all of the time, and walking a lot! When her meds aren't making her tired, she is following me everywhere and trying to get into things! Back to the same old Maddy! She is still moving slow though.
We are so close to being finished with school. Jaden only has 4 more worksheets in phonics! How exciting! We want to do something special for him, but money is becoming an issue right now. With Maddy's surgery, new foods, and meds, we are very tight on money. I think we will still make it to Disney if we really cut down. So, no spending unnecessary money for awhile! Probably not until after Disney!
Hopefully, I will have a little more to post than just Maddy soon. I need to start scrapbooking again soon. Maybe I can get some of the pages I finish up!
Have a wonderful Thursday everyone!

Our sweet Maddy....
is home. Wow, I just don't know what to say. I can't wait to see her feeling better, but for now, I have to deal with the realization! She has three legs! One has been cut off! Wow, just wow. I can't even explain the feeling of looking at your dog with only 3 legs. I am sure it will get better as time goes on, but right now it is hard. The kids are fine with it! I can't believe how well the kids are! I think I prepared them well.
She whined a lot in the car, but I think she was just really tired. She has been laying on her bed since we got home! She even ate a little bit of food. I have been buying so many vitamins for her and we bought some all natural food and treats! I really need to work on my end of the miracle deal. I am sure God is hoping I will do everything I can to make it happen!

Keeping busy but resting
That is exactly what I have been doing recently. I didn't have any major plans last week, and I feel so relaxed and stress free. I am so glad, since we are dealing with Maddy's sickness. She has been at the vet's this weekend awaiting her amputation surgery tomorrow. We are all praying for her and hoping it will be a smooth adjustment for her. I really want her last months to be good ones.

New news!
This is Maddy on her way to the vet for two more xrays! Wow, I think God is working some miracles here. Here xray showed no cancer in her body, just her leg. So, we will be taking her to a consultation for amputation tomorrow. I pray that all goes well and she can have the surgery. It is going to be a big financial strain on us and we might have to post pone our Disney trip. This is very sad, but Maddy is much more important than a vacation.

Sad news
Our precious dalmatian, Maddy, was diagnosed with bone cancer yesterday. The vet said we could have up to 6 months with her, but very unlikely. She had a fever yesterday and we got some medicine we have to give her everyday. I hate seeing our hyper Maddy just laying around sick. It is going to be a very long summer.
