Be Gone Illness

Ok, so I am officially ready for summer to get here. I feel like we've been dealing with winter related illnesses since the month of October, the height of it being at the end of February when both Justin and Matthew spent a week in the hospital with RSV. The past two nights Justin has awoken from his sleep hardly able to breathe. Come to find out after going to the doctor this morning he has croup. And even though I didn't take Matthew and Liam to the doctor they have similar symptoms, just not as severe. Bring on the warmth! (I never thought I'd hear myself say that.) Hopefully next winter we'll have a better run of luck. :) I have to say I'm so grateful to have a wonderful husband who helps so much! Wade's amazing! I am one lucky woman.

So here's a "My Kids Say the Darndest Things" quote for you. One evening last week as we were getting ready to have family scripture study I asked the kids where Dad went and Liam in all seriousness turns to me and says "He died". Where that came from I have no idea. :)

Taking Over

Ok, so I am officially taking over our blog. Wade has his own blog and I know it's time I share my view on things. I'm actually liking this blogging thing. It's kind of like an online version of scrapbooking. I thought it would be fun to have an ongoing quote of the day or maybe quote of the week, depending on how busy life is, called "My Kids Say the Darndest Things". Here's one for today. I walked out this morning in my pink plush robe and Abby so lovingly says to me, "Mom, why does that robe make your hips look so big?" (spreading her arms out wide as she says it). :) Oh these kids! Ya just gotta love 'em!

I've been so good about exercising this week! Justin has too in his own way.:) He loves to exercise with me. This morning he was doing the stretches and when it came time for the sit-ups he laid flat on his back and kept lifting his head up over and over. Try to imagine this little 17 month old exercising. It's so cute! I love my kids.
