Sickies…

February 18th, 2008

Well, after over a week of sickness, it seems like we might be over the worst of it. Patrick and Sammy, for the most part, seem to be doing much, much better. Sammy still seems slightly wheezy, and probably should be having more nebulizing treatments, but I haven’t done it in over a day now. Woops. Ethan, who was the last to get sick, is still slightly congested, but he isn’t coughing as much anymore, and he stopped throwing up on me every time I fed him. I’m so glad this sickness is over… it was hard with Patrick and Sammy being sick, but it was really rough when Ethan caught it. Now that we’re all on the mend, I’ve decided that it’s time for a good spring cleaning. I’ve started by washing all the sheets and blankets and the covers for the swing and carseat, and next all the stuffed animals are going in the wash and all the other toys are either going in the dishwasher or wiped down with disinfectant wipes. Once that’s done, I’m going to start sorting through everything so we can have a garage sale in May or June. There are many toys and baby items that aren’t being used around here, and it’s high time they found a home where they could actually be used!

Today…

Ethan laughed! Despite being sick, he still had a smile and a little giggle for Mommy. It was sweet :o).

A Letter to My Oma and Opa

February 8th, 2008

Dear Oma and Opa,

Today Mommy dressed me in this outfit just for you. She told me that you are traveling far away to some sort of snowy wilderness called “Montana”. It sounds really cold there, and I hope you get there safely. I hope that when you’re done building snow caves and attempting to survive in the snow that you can do me a favor and build me a snowman. I miss you and hope you have a safe trip.

Love, Baby Ethan

P.S. Don’t expect to find Katze when you get home. We found a loving home for her… a Chinese family seemed very eager to have her over for dinner last night ;o).

Sammy wasn’t so thrilled about the snow… he only stayed outside for about 10 minutes!

Before you say I’m a bad mom for doing this to my young child, let me say that he actually liked the clothes pins on his ears, and got upset when I took them off!!!!
