Sick!

I feel like we have just been a house of sickness since November. If I am not sick ,then Emily is sick. Steve got sick last week and missed 3 days of work. On Friday Emily got some sort of sickness and we took her to the Dr. on Sat morning. He just said she had the next "bug" going around. She has seen the Dr. 3 times in the last month. A couple of week ago she got Croup. She sounded aweful and it REALLY scared us. I try to wash her hands a lot and I am always washing my hands, so I don't know why we are getting so sick. I think I catch a lot of things because I am pregnant and my immune system is not as strong. I got something aweful on Sunday! I never have a sore throat but my nose runs more than it doesn't and is always stopped up. Monday I went to a walk in clinic and the Physican's Asssistant told me I had the flu, a cold, acute sinusitus, fluid behind my ears and bronchitis. I only believe half of that. I think I have a really bad cold. I have not had any aches like you would with the flu.
Today I have been trying to clean and wash away the germs. I am washing clothes that don't even need to be washed, but now I am paranoid. I hope we are all going to be healthy. I take that for granted! I have missed so many things in the past couple of weeks because of sickness. I am starved to be around people right now. I may hug the next friend I see!

Hi Laurie! I have been reading your blog! I'm so sorry you all have been sick. I hope it gets better real soon. It seems like we share every illness around my house too. Emily is such a doll! I know you have to be thrilled about expanding your family once again. Feel better!

Oh, I'm so sorry! :( It seemed that way around our house during the holidays--R had RSV, then after Christmas, L & A both had the stomach bug--yuck! Also, I had a 9-month-long cold when I was pregnant with both R & A. It was the strangest thing--It really was constant, then it cleared up immediately, even before I left the hospital I think!?! Get well soon!!!

Something Good to Eat

Ever since Steve and I started dating, when we would go to Mississippi, his aunt would make the BEST ROAST IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!! Steve's Dad's side of the family gets together at his Granny's house for lunch every Sunday after church. The food is always sooo good!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always taken a liking to his Aunt Judy's roast. It really is the best roast I have ever had. When we were there on Labor Day weekend, my sister in law asked Aunt Judy for the recipe. Aunt Judy began naming all the ingredients. She said Ranch Dressing mix, and I bugged my eyes out and nearly chocked. I HATE RANCH DRESSING. I don't even like to be in the room with it. I had to focus on the word MIX....not the mayo and butter milk and sour cream that you add to it. Just typing those words makes me shudder. The recipe sounded awful as she rattled off the ingredients, but I promise, you have got to make this if you like a good roast. Trust me on this. Here it is: Get a tender chuck

Complicated

Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now.  Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago.   We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun!  No stress at all, as far as I can remember!  I just played.  I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year!  Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons."  WHAT?  I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go?  I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST.  I guess that's a go

Life in Pictures!

Emily is enjoying her first year in band.  I am very impressed with her playing skill! Sarah Kate was recently awarded the empathy award at her school.  She is very deserving of this! Here we are before the Cotillion Holly Ball.
