she literally loves to be the center of attention: if davey’s race track or trains are set up, samantha is usually sitting in the middle of them (or on them).   she must not have hips… ‘cuz most of her pants (especially jeans) have issues staying up:   her vocabulary is still pretty limited: mama, dada, [...]


improvement

24th February 2010 | 2 Comments

we’re seeing some improvement in this household…. whew! we still have some pretty crabby kids at times, but overall, they’re doing great. we seem to be on the mend. i’m slowly adding non-BRAT foods into their diet. we’re taking it day by day around here. i’m hoping we can venture to Bible study tomorrow morning, [...]


sleepy

  these photos are from thursday (davey) and saturday (samantha) but show new things about both of them.   on thursday, when davey REALLY wasn’t feeling well, he only took a 90 minute nap (his usual is 2 hours and when he’s sick it goes at least 30 minutes longer than that). so we sat [...]


attempting

21st February 2010 | 1 Comment

it’s sunday. we’re not at church. we’re attempting to keep the kids on the mend and keep them healthy by keeping them OUT of the church nursery for another week (we might venture to Bible study on Thursday). and i’m going to do my best to keep them away from shopping carts (those germ-ridden vehicles [...]


pulling through

we might be "out of the woods." it’s been 42 hours since our last episode with vomit in this home. no more fevers. it’s beautiful and sunny outside and it’s been in the 50s (and warmer), so i’ve been opening windows to air out the house. i need to give it a good cleaning again, [...]


still it persists

it’s friday. and whatever germs and bugs have made their way into our home are still wreaking havoc. poor davey has it worst of all. he spent 45 hours (just shy of two days) feeling AWFUL, including vomiting – even just water and ginger ale. he finally felt better. LOTS better. WAY better yesterday. and [...]


almost the same

  i took this photo last week (shortly after samantha threw up on her shirt and socks):   yep. my 30-month old and my almost 16-month old are just about the same size. they weigh the same (around 28 pounds). they wear the same size clothing (24 months and 2T….. though his 24-month clothing is [...]


it’s time

it’s time for shaggy to get on the calendar for a haircut:   yep. even this mama will agree and admit: it’s time.    


he’s a rock star

12th February 2010 | 1 Comment

    like father, like son: total rock stars (especially davey in those super hero jammies!).   davey really got into it. daddy plugged his iPhone into the upstairs radio and turned the music up… he pulled out his old guitar (electric? bass? i don’t know the difference!) and let davey go to town. and [...]
