Well, I figured now is a good time to post: the kids are in bed, the house is clean, the dishes are washing, and I just had a nice soak in the hottub.  Although all of that relaxing was kind of undone when I came back inside and realized that for the last hour, instead of sleeping like I thought they were when I left them, the two year olds were having a pillow fight.  My favorite part was when they both pretended to be asleep when I walked in.  Never mind the fact that I was watching them throw pillows at each other 5 seconds before.  

Things have been slowing down a little around here lately.  Okay, not really, but they are improving...

Could we get a punch card, please?

Whew, what a week!

Well, Sunday night (not too long after I wrote my last post) I developed a severe headache that would just not go away.  I tried everything.  Tylenol (but my headache laughed at the medication).  Sleep (but all I could do was lay there imagining that I was floating towards that bright light).  And finally, googling to at least put my mind at ease that it was nothing.  But, and please don’t laugh, everything we researched pointed towards the fact that I may have a brain aneurism, or at least something equally as serious.

So, at midnight, with no one to call for advice, Nathaniel called his dear friend Brian to come over, and without hesitation he was here to watch the kids, and we headed over to our friendly neighborhood ER...

Before I get started though, um, “no comments” on my last post??  None?  I understand that it wasn’t that interesting, but seriously, give me a little something to know that you are reading.  Tell you what, you comment more, and I’ll post more often, mkay?

Alright, so last Sunday night S came to me looking very sad (and kind of dramatic) that she didn’t feel good.  So I sent her to bed, kept her from school the next day, and gave her the royal princess treatment (only not as much as the last time because a. she wasn’t as sick as the last time and b. I was kind of over it — although I did bring her home some flowers, which are still in her room, come to think of it, and probably really wilted.  And if you want to know why I haven’t really been in her room lately, read on)

So, Monday ni...
