More Stuff Around Here

Both of my kiddos have strep throat. No idea where or how they even got it, but it is so sad. Cason has a double ear infection again and if they can't get them cleared up by next week, we will probably have to go and put tubes in his ears. I haven't cleaned my house all week. I have vacuumed a few times and stuffed things in the corner so we don't trip on things, but I really haven't cleaned a thing. Adalie has gotten quite good at soaking up the sympathy of being sick. Today she asked if she could open a Christmas present from underneath the tree because she is sick and it would make her feel better. She was also running around playing Rapunzel with Daddy as her Prince. They danced and got married. Daddy even gave her a ring....Good signs that she is starting to feel a little better =)

Today was the first snow fall here in Iowa and will continue through the night. Up to six inches. 14 degrees now and 0 to 5 degrees around midnight. Niiiiiiiicccceeeee! We are supposed to leave for Colorado next Saturday and so far the 10 day forecast has a clear the whole route on Saturday and Sunday. So, ever still keep your fingers crossed that everyone will hurry and get better and the weather will stay nice so we can travel soon!

My sister Heather had her little boy yesterday. 10 lbs 7 ounces!! Vaginal birth!!!! And he was a little over a week early!!So glad the epidural worked for her. Poor little Colt though, his face was black and blue because he got a little stuck coming out and they had to do some rough pulling. I cannot imagine pushing something like that out...I would literally die I am sure. I think Heather deserves some kind of a reward if you ask me. LoL

Anywho, gotta get the kiddos all medicined up and into bed

I love that Adalie milks it- I wonder if That excuse would work for me opening my presents :)
Heather sounds amazing-That sounds like a big boy-Michael always wanted us to have bigger babies.
