Spring Break Wrap Up

Here is a picture of the kiddos in the yard on the last day of everyone's spring break. I'm so happy that EVERYONE went back to work/school today! We've been so sick around here nobody has had a normal week since before Valentine's Day so I was ready for everyone to go where they needed to go and do their own thing today.

Lucky Ducky

I'm only about half Irish, but I still LOVE to celebrate St. Pat's like everyone else. I decided to forgo the celebrating this year, just wear green, and feel INCREDIBLY lucky that Saturday was the first day in over a month that everyone felt good.

I love that little smile.

Posse Problems

Oh wow what a winter. Yes, the nicest winter weather-wise has turned out to be the year that sickness after sickness has reigned down on our house like some kind of modern day biblical plague. I dragged home the stomach flu a week before Valentine's day and since then, with not a day (or night) of a break 1 or any combo of us has been sick. Taking the gold in the sickness olympics this year would be none other than our Little Bitty Pal who has seen the doctor about 5 times, and has been to the emergency room due to flu stuff, ear infections, and now RSV.

Isa, in the "couch bed". She also camped out in the bathroom for a couple of nights so the humidifier would work a little better for her. Not to be outdone by the children would be the hubs. Yes, Miguel the medical phenomenon had what came across as the exact same flu twice. Amazing! He was fine, then he really wasn't almost exactly a week later. (Photo unavailable since we've been too busy or sick to take any of ourselves) This mama, has only had 1 case of the bug, lasting for 2 days and has taken care of the posse since. Here's hoping for a better (healthier at least) spring! And in other news, these are some pac man cookies I made for 80's theme trivia night.
