Tea Party Fun

My mom decided to celebrate Mina's adoption by having a tea party for her last weekend. We met at a little tea place down the road from us, and celebrated a day all about Mina. She loved it. She enjoyed being pampered and treated like the Queen she already knew she was. It was a lot of fun. we had the "Duchess Tea" I believe it was called. It came with scones, soup, sandwich and dessert. Mina tried to have hot tea, but I don't think that she was a big fan of it. These tea places have little hats and furs you can wear, so after some convincing she decided to play dress-up. Here are a couple of pics from our Mina celebration.


P.S. We will be having an adoption party in late April/early May. Hope everyone can make it!

Exhausted...

Sorry for the lapse in blogging. We have had a really long week! Aidan has had a lot of very long seizures, good thing we are headed to the hospital next week for our tests. Since last Saturday, he has had at least one seizure everyday, and some days the seizures lasted anywhere from 15 minutes to 1 hour. VERY SCARY! Especially for him. He has no idea what is happening to him, it's really sad. Unlike some children, he is aware of the changes he is experiencing. He's non-responsive during them, but I think he is aware of what is happening, or about to happen, or what just happened. Make sense? Anyway, just say a prayer for him they really wear him down. In fact, we skipped church this morning b/c he doesn't want to get out of the bed, he is sooo tired. We did talk to his doctor this week, finally. They increased his anti-epileptic medication, and also prescribed an emergency drug called diastat. If he has a seizure that lasts more than 5 minutes we are suppose to administer this drug, give him 10 minutes to stop seizing, and then call 911 if he has not stopped seizing. SCARY! Anyway, pray for us as we go through this next week, hopefully it will be better than last week, and pray for us the week we are in the hospital. PRAY FOR ME!! I might need some extra patience that week! Thanks, everyone! We appreciate your prayers!
