I love my family!

Mason is turning 8!

My how time flies. My baby is turning 8 tomarrow. I just finished his cake. He wanted an Indiana Jones cake. We are having a fun party tomarrow afternoon as well, complete with snake pits, adventures, and hunting for treats. What more could a boy ask for?

At least it is not Swine flu!!

Mason woke up with a high fever yesterday! ( don't you love being a mom?)So, I kept him home from school. Today, he got up saying his throat hurt and his fever was higher. Ah- ha! I think we have strep. SOOO, I drag everyone kicking and screaming to the doctor where he confirms the awful truth and writes a prescription. Now off to the pharmacy. Well, aparently there has been a mad rush on penicillian and We had to go too 4 pharmacies to get drugs. Then we have to wait an hour while they fill the friggin thing. Meanwhile I am dragging around a very sick child and two daughters who need spankings now! What a great Saturday!!
On a brighter note, I got a haircut yesterday and hair colored and that can do wonders for a woman!!

cough, cough cough-is my kid ever going to sleep?

Reagan kept us up all night coughing and coughing. The kind of annoying one, coming from a tickle in your throat. I gave her triaminic and it didn't help. I gave her delysm and it didn't help. I was starting to feel completly postal by 1 in the morning and got the idea to give her some root beer I was drinking. TA-DA she quit hacking for a few hours at least. Then when the tickle came back I just gave her a swig of root beer and back to sleep she went. Now today she is all perky and happy and I am dragging around like a tired zombie!!

Don't faint.. I'm blogging!

So I am going to try blogging again and try keep up with this thing. We can all hope I will think of something interesting to say on here. no promises. Its gray and overcast and I want Spring!! At least the daffodils and crocus are blooming!! Reagan is making me nuts these days. She can't keep enough new information coming into her life to be entertained. She told me preschool is boring because I am not teaching her to read. Thanks kid. She told a stranger in Kohl's the life cycle of a frog last week. What next?
