WE BOUGHT A HOUSE!!!

It's happened SO fast and I can't believe it! We are in the final stages of buying our first house!!! Of course if it wasn't for my Mom 's hefty down payment we wouldn't be able to do it. Well unless we wanted to buy a shack, LOL! We really don't know what we're doing but we are trying to learn along the way as much as possible. It's real important to know what questions to ask so you don't unknowingly pass up a good opportunity or whatever. Our realtor says we are very smart about it but I can 't help but think something's missing. Oh well that's good I guess. Anyway, WE'RE BUYING A HOUSE!!! It 's a great house too! Not new but very well taken care of and nice and clean. I'm so excited but at the same time concerned because mom will be living with us. I just hope we can get along and be happy as the years pass and all get what we want out of it and what's best for everyone. Big changes are a happening in the Foote household. Makes me even more excited about what's more to come. I feel like we are being blessed beyond what our cup can hold and that filling is not stopping any time soon! I know my Heavenly Father loves me and my little family and knows my heart and wants me to be happy! So many good things to come even after getting our first house. I just know it!

Overdue Update

It's been way way too long since I've written a blog post. I really don't know when to start since it's been almost THREE years! The boys have grown so much! Everett's in end of 1st grade and I'm homeschooling him! Breccen is in speech therapy class at Laurelglen Elementary and will be starting TK next year 2015-16 school year and I'll be homeschooling him 2016-17 school year in official Kindergarten! We've been living in Bakersfield for over 8 years and finally my family is planning on moving here! Yippee! I'll finally not be alone anymore! Sarah and Amelia will be moving away from Montana soon and living either with my mom or us depending on opportunity. My mom in Oxnard is trying to sell her house and will be moving up here as soon as that happens and bringing Amber with her! James might follow too! Then in December Ruth will be able to move out here with her kids, Bubba, Danny and Aleesha! Nichole and her BF and baby girl Emily Ruth might move here to some day! I don't think I missed anybody but that sure is WAY more than I was ever expecting!! I thought I was doomed to be stuck in Bako forever away from close family!! Good things are going to happen! I'm so excited for all the new changes happening in our family! I love this shaken it up thing going on! Will really help in my depression and everything! We've been praying for our family to grow and I guess this is the answer to our prayers! Not exactly what I was thinking but still exciting and good! We are also at the moment looking for a better place to live and we think we found it!! Will be looking at it on Monday and hopefully we can put a deposit on it then! We've been in a limbo mode for quite a while now and still kinda are but at least we have so much to look forward too now! I pray that it all works out an that we won't be disappointed again.  I know Heavenly Father knows whats best for us and everyone individually. So I will keep my trust in him and continue on my faith that he will take care of it all, as long as we are doing our part. Whoever is reading this please pray for us too! We have so much to think about!

The doc called me this morning (Tuesday May 22nd) with my blood test results. They came back with indication of allergy's. So that made sense and I was trying to figure out what I am allergic to all day. Until the doc called again about 6pm and told me that he got back my stool sample test results and it came back positive for C-Dip but a very mild form of it. That was refreshing to finally know all that but now I should go on antibiotics to kill off the intestinal infection. Since I don't have insurance I need to figure out which pharmacy is the cheapest for this prescription. The doc said he wrote it already and it's waiting at the front desk for me to pick up. I think Rick might pick it up tomorrow if nothing changes. It's weird though because today I am feeling better and have not had much indigestion or stomach upset or anything. So I'm pretty hesitant to get this prescription for two reasons. One, I feel better and two the doc said the most common way of getting this infection is after taking antibiotics. Weird huh? That's what I think. Plus he also said that it might be able to be treated with diet. I think that the luric acid in the coconut oil is really helping like it should in killing the bacteria. It sure is working for my finger without prescription or over the counter meds! Also I started back on my probiotics pill today and hopefully that will help too. I think I've got it covered and will continue to monitor my progress in health through this natural healing process. Oh I also think I should start taking dandelion tea again because that helps with my gallbladder function. For some reason all this gets me excited and hopeful for myself. I'm so glad I got that blessing from Rick and our home teacher Bro Lohmeyer last Monday.  I have this strong feeling that Heavenly Father has His hands in on this for me or at least I have faith that he does.  I really don't know why in this case other than He knows how important it is for me to find other ways besides chemicals and doctors practices to heal my body. I mean He knows best, right? So I'm trusting in Him to heal me. I really believe it's working and is THE best way about it. I'm finding this to be true more and more in my life. I am so looking forward to knowing more and more of His way of natural healing as I grow older. It's so excited!!!
