Latest Update

So as of Friday we are starting our 3rd week. We met with the home adjuster and Eric from Patterson Construction  to determine what all the repairs will be and how long it will take. Most likely we will be here one more week. It looks as if we are going to get new tile through out the house except the living room and we are going to paint the girls rooms and the girls bathroom before everything is back in place. That is exciting.
All in all I really can't complain because we are staying at such a beautiful place. I almost feel like a kid again. Biking and swimming practically anytime we want. The old athletic person in me is coming out again LOL!! We will not know what to do once we have to leave. I love love love love love swimming. It is so relaxing, gets the stress out and it wears me out. Just got to find a place where we can go swimming during the summer and just have fun. We have such a wonderful time and it's a great mother daughter, hubby and family bonding time.
It will be bittersweet to leave, but I sooo miss our home, our pets and our neighbors!!!

Here is what our beautiful house looks like now

Well here is what our house currently looks like. Almost like a new home under construction. So much mess everywhere. We still do not have a completion date.

We are all so wiped out! Darin and I just are not sleeping well at all. Miss Hannah woke up SUPER early this morning and is all out of sorts.

Sarah seems to be doing the best, however, when I dropped her off at her class, she then looked like a Mac truck hit her. I felt so bad leaving her.... but she seemed happy at the same time.

Hannah is sooo out of sorts.... the attitude is coming out in full force. Hopefully we can relax a bit today, (GOD fid that) and maybe have some fun taking advantage of the positive side of this and go swimming.

So that is where we are at right now.Please keep us in your prayers as we go through another rough patch. I am hopeful and sure we will get through this soon!

Please pray for us

It seems like our situation is getting crazier and crazier by the day.
We don't know where we're going to be living after Tuesday or Wednesday of this week.
I am still trying to figure out how to continue training with my company, help the kids get ready for their last week and a half of school, and spend time at the house to keep up on what is going on. We still are unsure if this is going to take more than a month.
Please keep us in your prayers that we will get through this soon.

Here is the damage thus far

This is bare concrete. They process has begun. Carpets ripped up and soon the master bedroom, master bath, all of the back of the house will be torn out.... or at least that is what I have gathered for now. So we will be displaced for a while. OH THE JOYS!!!

This is nothing... but I am trying to stay positive!

OUR WONDERFUL NIGHT LAST NIGHT!

OMMMMMMG!

Well life is soo fun her at the Zicafoose house! Last night as we were getting ready to go to bed, went to the back of the house to find our master bath and bedroom flooded with MASSIVE water!! All in the bathroom, most of the bedroom and hallway. URG!!! As Darin was scooping up water, I was saving all I could. It got into our storage closet and hit boxes with many valuables. THANK GODNESS I was able to save 90% of what I could. Today with another day of training, and lack of sleep, it should be interesting.

Sarah had a hard but good weekend

A few weeks ago, Sarah went to the ear doctor to have her hearing checked and had tubes placed. She had to be knocked out for this procedure. Well things seemed fine, so we thought.
The last few days of last week, she seemed like she was getting sick and was unusually fussy. Friday she kept tugging at her left ear. During bath time she was really upset. So Saturday, since I was backed up with house stuff due to training, I asked Mandie, Sarahs provider to take her to urgent care at Sarahs doctors office.
Turned out she has a blood clot in her right ear. She was prescribed steroids and antibiotic ear drops.
She seems to already be feeling better.
Sunday, Darin and the girls took a trip to Luke AFB with their grandparents. She had on a diaper since it was going to be a long trip. When they got home, took her straight to the potty, took her diaper off and it was bone dry. Man did she go! Lol! Shes GOT IT!!! She is still doing AMAZING with potty training. YEAAAA MY GIRL!

Sarah taking a bite of food and not even fussing!

Her is Miss Sarah taking a spoonful of food and not getting all upset. I was holding the camera so its a little funky looking, but as you will see..... its sooo wonderful!!!!!

Sarah having fun with feeding! Yea

The video your about to see is YEARS in the making. I don't want to say much, because it's a surprise. I was sooo thrilled that I was able to capture it and Sarah was for the most part, cooperating. This may be a small step and seem like not that big of a deal to some, but to those who TRULY understand Sarah, this is a HUGE HUGE STEP for her getting closer and getting her one step closer to her goals. If you dont see her in a blue shirt playing with her tube, then click on the wording "Sarah playing with food."
