Rough Start to Spring
What a rough start to Spring! We thought we were in the clear for the bugs going around. WRONG!!
We started out on Easter with plans to go to Brian's mom's house. We pack up and get about 45 minutes from home to have ADT (our alarm company)call and tell us our home security alarm had been activated and the police had been dispatched. We turn around and come home to get it all taken care of. Jump back in the car to get an hour from home and have Emma puke in the car. We assumed it was Brian's driving and a case of car sickness. We stopped at a gas station in Terre Haute to clean the mess up. We continued the last 20 minutes in the car to Grandma's who let me wash her clothes and her carseat. We continued the afternoon with an exciting egg hunt and movies. The week continued with all five kiddos and Brian getting the stomach bug (Norovirus) that has been wreaking havoc on lots of people. I ended up in the ER three times with three different children. Parker and Emma only needed IV fluids to rehydrate, but Drew ended up being admitted for observation. Maddox and Jack didn't have as severe voiting, but certainly made up for it coming from the back end! So needless to say our spring break was quite exhausting and germ filled.
This week was back to school for both boys. It's neen good getting back into the routine. I managed to do some home improvement. Our front door has been leaking water when it rains and the window above the door has been leaking as well. I took Maddox, Jack and Emma to Menards to order a new front door, but for some reason out door is an odd size and was going to be more expensive than we are looking to spend at this time. I was able to get a new storm door and tools to fix it until we are ready for a large messy project. We've been able to play outside for the last two days. IT'S AMAZING how fresh air and a change of activity fixes anything. We were all so tired last night. There is going to be rain moving in tonight so I'm hoping we can do ice cream outside after nap today.
I know we are exciting peeps here in the Squad Headquarters, and this isn't as fun of an update; but we like you all to know we are A OK!!
XOXO
