Finally...Erika Pictures!

All of these pictures were taken today. Erika is still running a fever and is feeling sad so no Laurie Berkner concert! Of course it was harder for Peter and I to accept that we weren't going than Erika...who had no idea we were even going in the first place!
"Mommy, this stinks being sick...no Laurie Berkner concert...just a walk around the neighborhood!"

Basically Erika slept the night...if you don't count getting up at 3:00. Both Peter and I are exhausted. Erika slept the remainder of the night with me, in Peter's spot and then he worked more on my computer and went to sleep on the floor in her room at 6:00. This household is crazy! But as you can see, my computer is better than ever. New hard drive from my father and many many hours of my computer technician husband.
No Sunday school this morning for Erika and we have Aunt Judy so hooked now on going to church that she even went without us...I was impressed. I know from the pictures Erika looks good but I am sharing the best of 36! She truly has been in no mood for a photo shoot but I couldn't resist with her cute Halloween shirt on!
I am leaning towards no Halloween costume for Erika this year. We are boycotting because Michelle will be away! Erika does not like having that kind of stuff on her anyway and we can save some money! I dreamt last night that I made her a bumble bee. I think she will do fine with her shirt and I bought her some really cute orange velour pants to match.
I haven't given a weight loss update in awhile. I am down 17 pounds total and really struggling to try and stay on track. I have so much more to loose and it is getting harder. I try to keep small goals like just make it to 20 pounds down first and then go from there. This week is full of testing and doctors appointments for my surgery the following week.I have other pictures from the week to share but am learning some new programs that Peter installed and just don't have the patience to do it all right now so for now....to be continued!

Poor girl, I really hope she feels better soon, nothing like a sick little baby! Sorry you couldn't go to the concert. It seems she frequents your area so hopefully the next time around you get to go. Michelle going away again? So you are boycotting Halloween? You can come down here and go with us.
