Well, it’s a good thing we had that wonderful day over the weekend, because now we’re all sick. Doctor has said he believes it’s the dreaded H1N1, and we’d already come to that conclusion. No one is having a terrible, terrible reaction, but Hubby sure does have it pretty bad. And it lasts forever, I [...]

“PooPoo!”
“No, Poo-PEE!”
“PooPoo!”
“Poopie!”
“PooPOO!”
“No! It’s a Poo-PEEEE!”

There will be years that go by when we (especially the boys in relation to Hubby and I) don’t feel this way at all. But through that time, I hope that two things [...]

I kid you not, after our week, Sam came down with Croup last night. At one point in the night I simultaneously had one kid throwing up and one barking like a seal. It’s like a joke.
And I know ya’ll are tired of hearing about sick yuck. Believe me, I’m sick of writing about it, [...]
