A lot of blog readers have followed the story of Stellan, myself included.
MckMama, Stellan's Mom, would constantly refere to Stellan's doctor at Children's Hospital in Boston, only as Dr. A leaving me to wonder if it was my doctor. Today she posted this article, which confirmed that Dr. A is in fact that doctor that treated me for all of my post ablation follow up care. The doctor that did my 8 hour procedure correcting 8 pathways in my heart, moved away shortly after and Dr. A took over. Dr. A is a wonderful doctor!
My SVT was not as severe as little Stellan's as I was 2 months shy of 14 years old when I had my ablation. I can say, that when ever my heart would trigger into an "SVT attack" (as I call them) it was terrifying! Hopefully little Stellan will have no memory of that feeling.................because it is an AWFUL feeling!
What a small world :)

Friday Fragments
"down in fragle rock............" That song pops in my head every friday when I get my frag on thanks to Mrs. 4444!
*Hallie over here talks about her lonely little mosquito.....well we have a lonely little lady bug that resides in our bathroom. A couple of weeks ago Thomas Trouble didn't believe me or Einstein when we told him. We had to bring him in to show him. Did you catch that, a couple of weeks ago? Yeah, lovely lonely little lady bug is STILL there. Sometimes she's gone but by morning she is right back in her spot.
*This might be a little TMI for some of you to take but I STILL have the lovely little baby line on my belly above and below my button. Seriously, I evicted Mr. Mean almost 9 months ago...........enough already! (Thankfully my hair has stopped falling out!)
*I've been debating 'New Year's Resolutions' in my head recently. I decided I am not going to make any this year (at least not publicly) because I always FAIL at them. However, one thing I want to try in 2010 (OMG that sounds so crazy to say......twenty ten) is 'A Picture A Day.' I want to try to take a picture every day for 365 days. I plan to do it and link it somewhere over on my side bar----->
*I started my Christmas shopping on Wednesday night. I am going to try to finish it rather quickly so that the week leading up to Christmas I can really enjoy baking and what not. Family, do you remember what I was like at Christmas time last year in my 7 months pregnant state? LOONEY doesn't even come close!
*Today I went shopping for a sweater in my attic. It has been 2 years since those sweaters were packed away.........2 years! Hopefully in a few weeks after I've gotten my SHRED on for some time, they'll all fit marvelously! (yeah I know, you people in my region are probably like why the heck are you wearing a sweater today when it's 60 degrees out! I know I know, weird. But my office is chilly!)
*Thomas Trouble has been driving out of my freakin mind this week! Some how, some way, he's lost his ears. That boy does not listen to a single thing I say! And when he does listen, he'll say "but Mama, I'm just being a puma, etc. etc. etc." as if that makes climbing on the back of the couch okay. Seriously Internet, I LOVE HIS IMAGINATION, I do. But for the love of God, this character stuff has got to calm down a teeny tiny bit!
*We have been trying really really hard for the past month + to eat really really healthy and all I really really want is an almond joy ice cream loaded with jimmies! I want it so bad I could scream! And the really really terrible part of this...........I can't have it until next spring/summer because Tootsie's is closed!

Days like today........
*Edited: I've been told he's having a great day. So it must have just been 'morning purging of snots' and I totally over reacted in my post!
It's days like today, that if I think about it for one second longer, I'll be in a puddle of tears.

He's a grinder!
HE GRINDED HIS TEETH ALL NIGHT LONG!
It's like nails on a chalk board! And totally gives me the heebie jeebies! I have tried to reproduce this noise in my own mouth to try to figure out how he's doing it, and I can't. Hard to believe he use to look like this, huh?
(And you wonder why I call him Mr. Mean? Just look at that scowl!)

Purell me, STAT!
So recently we decided to take the kids out for an afternoon to the Providence Children's Museum.
Internet, WHAT ON EARTH WERE WE THINKING?
Thomas Trouble HAD A BALL! He loved being able to walk/run without holding any one's hand. And he loved TOUCHING (shriek!) everything! Mr. Mean was content. I think he's going to be like his Mamma and be a total people watcher. He's nosey as hell! Einstein LOVED the water room. I seriously think HE had more fun in that room than any little kid. So much so, I was almost embarrassed to claim him! His inner engineer was really coming out in there!
Me......we'll I was not so content. I was stuck on, holy effing sugar balls, I am marinating in one big germ infested petri dish!
I'm not kidding Internet, I couldn't get beyond it. Little kids everywhere touching everything. It was like a nightmare! I know what kinds of things my own 3 year old touches.........multiply that by a hundred or so! (shivering!) (And yes, I know, I knew what I was getting myself into!)
Last night was most definitely a tubby night!
You know what else I couldn't get beyond...............the activity table with 'caps'. Laundry detergent caps, hairspray caps, milk bottle caps, apple juice container caps, etc. etc. Why haven't I thought to keep these things as toys? Oh right, because TT certainly wouldn't play with them in my house but of course he would in someone else's! Yeah, me and Einstein had fun quizzing each other as to 'what the cap came from'.

Friday Fragments
I missed last week but I'm back again to frag with Mrs. 4444.
