Christmas Eve Recap

Well, to start on Friday I received a bad letter in the mail. Seriously, who mails out a $2,500 bill two days before Christmas?!?! Oh St. Francis ER. We have to pay the ER visit because we haven't paid anything this year towards our $3,000 deductible. I wouldn't be so pissed off if I didn't feel like they were taking advantage of us. I was expecting oh 500-700 max since we had X-rays done. NOPE! So now all next week I get to deal with this. I'm getting an itemized detail of everything charged and going to the insurance company to see what they would pay.

For example, they charged us $160 for a breathing treatment. Just one. WHAT!!! When we bought the one for our home (well when our insurance bought it) they were only charged $60. A supply box of 30 treatments only cost (my insurance) $5. So tell me how on gods green earth one treatment is $160. I REFUSE TO PAY THAT!!

Another example, when Aiden was born and stayed 3 nights in the hospital and had his circumcision (SURGERY) his bill was only $3500....so tell me how 6 hours on a bed in the hall where all they did was give him steroids and Tylenol equals the same amount?!?!

So needless to say I had a mini meltdown. Bawling not because of the bill, but how bad they were abusing us. The system is so messed up. Just keep trying to do the right things and then things like that happen. So wrong! Needless to say I will have a GREAT week! Let's hope my temper doesn't flair too much....I can't promise anything.

If you couldn't tell still fuming...but the holiday season must progress...

I don't know about everyone else but our weather has been soo weird 30s to 70s it of course has started to bother the little man. So again we are back to multiple breathing treatments a day and an elevated bed. (As I'm hearing the little man cough his head off laying in bed....) I hate that so much and look forward to the day when he outgrows this.

Tonight we headed over to Wes' parents for Christmas, which was quite pleasant. I was a little worried because of some people attending. All the little kids loved the gifts we gave them and gave us big hugs. Love those kids! Dinner was great too after only eating a sandwich all day.

Here are the things Aiden received: (Which he had more fun running around in the huge pile of paper ripping it up even more. SILLY, but my heart melts when he laughs and smiles) Love the tag reader and can't wait for him to use it. Hopefully, this will help him start saying words faster. Beyond obsessed with his trike, because it can fold and easily store. And lastly from his cousins he got the starter kit train set, which is WOOD! Love even more! So now we can grow from this and make it even larger.

Here are the things I received: (Which I LOOOOVE! Can't wait to keep growing my charm bracelet. I got an L for Lambert and a little boy for Aiden. I also can't wait to use my new chip and dip bowl, which I didn't even know they made in my pattern!)

Wes' gifts were ummm awesome too haha (He loves them so that's all that matters)! He got a new video game (Regina knew I wouldn't buy it for him. haha), a nice pair of headphones, and from Steve an air compressor! YAH! Never have to pay to pump up our tires again!

Can't wait for Christmas tomorrow! Stockings all set, little man in his new pjs. A nice day with my family! Gitty!
