We have survived the storm and come out of the fog now....


Jonathan started the worst sickness we have dealt with in this house in a long time. He had the fever and cough first, then Matthew, then Jeff and, finally, me. When we fell, we fell HARD!! It was a loooooooong week around here but we made it. The boys are still on meds for double ear infections but feeling fine.

We got the house cleaned up from the mess and began a new mess today as we started ripping out all of the floors in the kitchen, dining room, living room, hallways, and bath/laundry room. New paint will come next and then, someday soon we hope, the new floors will be installed. Papa Terry and Grandma Cindy are here helping with the work this weekend.

The boys got out for some play in the snow today. We have had snow, more snow, more snow. We are sick of snow!!! For a change we are having freezing rain tomorrow, followed by three days of more snow. Ugh.

The boys did make it back in time for their Valentine's Day party at school. They were determined to not miss that. We did miss Jeff's birthday in the middle of the sickness. Poor guy had to drag two sick kids to pick up his own birthday cake we had ordered (I was still at work) and then we were all too sick to even eat it. What a sad day. We'll make it up to him.
