the two week virus from HELL

After nearly two weeks of sore throats, ear aches, coughs, fevers, and snot, it turns out all three boys have ear infections! Gabe's was the worst. Dr. Bonney said he was surprised we hadn't needed to go to the ER with a ruptured ear drum! Today was pretty cold but we were desperate for some fresh air so we headed out just for a bit while everyone was high on Motrin. Definitely looking forward to having my healthy children back!

the t-shirt says it all!

When I start to cook, Lukey starts to cook. This is the scene just about every night!

We've had a busy few weeks! We finally got to meet the newest member of our family, but then we were all hit with a terrible virus! Justin started with it on Christmas Eve. Then the boys caught it and then it was my turn. So we spent Isaiah's break from school feeling pretty crummy - fevers, VERY sore throats and sinus/ear aches. Justin came home from work the other day and surprised them with a Wii game that we recently played at his sisters 30th birthday party. It has a bunch of old songs on it and you have to follow the dance moves on the screen. You get points for accuracy and at the end there is a winner. It is SOOO much fun! So, during drug induced periods of comfort, we would all challenge each other to dance-offs! At one point, Justin and I realized we were so into it that we didn't even realize we had two babies crying, but still wanted to finish the song! Terrible, I know! This Wii, that my Mom gave us a couple years ago, has really been such a cool thing to have.

Lily testing out the swing. I don't turn it on yet because even the slowest seems like a bit much for her tiny little self. Sometimes we just give it a little push and she seems to like it so far! In the past, I've called it "the babysitter"!

Lukey sleeping with the adorable giant stuffed dog that my Aunt Ann sent! He LOVES it! (obviously)
