Spring is FINALLY Here !

We went to the park today - it was so nice outside - just wish the sun would peek through. The kids had so much fun (Josie slept) and Daddy even went down the slide once! Spring is finally here!

Check the picture link for the whole album of pictures. I am trying to update this site more as it's the easiest way to keep updates current :-)

Keeping them busy !












Josie in her little chair we borrowed from a friend. The things they have now for babies! So different just from 6 years ago! She sat in the exer-saucer too, but she's really not tall enough yet to support herself. She's getting there.















BIGGEST BITE EVER! Tyler was going round and round with me about a snack this afternoon. I was trying to keep him busy and also entertain Josie while playing nurse to T.J. He opted for a BIG red apple. I was just about to cut it up when he took a big chunk out of it...I've never seen a kid eat an apple so big. He enjoyed it a lot (and it kept him busy for about 30 minutes) :-)















Josie is growing so fast. She doesn't mind tummy time so much anymore, which is great! She is getting stronger and more lively everyday!

Is it a curse? Friday the 13th? (LOL !)













Today has been one heck of a day. We woke up hoping to have a fun day of no school (for Teacher Conferences)...and T.J. came in and said he had a very sore throat. I called the Dr. and we went to see her at 1040a. Promptly we were told he has strep throat AGAIN. He just had it 4 weeks ago and we thought we were done with that. WRONG! More meds....He seemed tired and said he was cold while we were driving home and then all of the sudden started throwing up in the van. This is the first time that has happened to me....in the 6 years we have had 1, 2 or 3 kids. Amazing, I know! He had a blanket on him and that was most of the mess, which was good. So, we got home, got him to bed with some antibiotic. He's asleep or throwing up about every 30 minutes. Poor thing! Fever, headache, sore throat and now more puke! He's so miserable! The joys of a kid in school with all the infection! With no school, he was able to just be home and relax. We are hoping for a 'get better' weekend !
