I'm just done.

The Plague Has Taken Over!

Which is why I haven't been blogging. :op Last week ended with the older 2 getting pink eye and my boy starting his time with the fever. He still has it, but at least there is no more pink eye in my home and no one else got it. Now if hubby and I could quickly get over the colds we finally inherited from the kids...

Enjoy the sunshine, Peeps!

Get Out of Those PJs!

I'm going on the 2nd week of sick kids. The twins had a fever for most of last week and now my girl has been home with it this week. I guess that's how it goes when you have a handful of kids! ;o) Anyhow, having sick kids puts me back in survival mode. I do the bare minimum to get through my days. I've been in my pjs until 5 minutes ago (about 1:30) and even the small transition to sweats has already lightened my mood. Some people do fine being in their jammies for several days in a row, I'm just not one of them! :oD

If I Had a Day...

If I had a day to myself, I would want to spend it looking at cooking blogs and drinking coffee. I would, of course, need a laptop to do this so I could be somewhere on the coast.

What are some of your favorite food blogs?

It's Just Around the Corner

The signs of Spring are starting to turn up in my yard. Our birch trees are usually the first show with little bits of green leaves emerging from their branches. Something about seeing those budding trees just gets me so excited for the upcoming change in seasons. I can already feel the warm sun on my face, sense the calmness that fills my soul from smelling the fresh air (and soil!) and am eagerly anticipating what herbs and flowers I'm going to plant. Hee hee!

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk

That saying was quite literal in our house last Monday. My little mutants have become quite clever (especially Thing #2!) and now know how to open the refrigerator door. I had been trying for about a week to keep taking him away from the fridge, saying no, yada, yada, yada. And then we became the reason Safety First was created. As we were running around the house getting ready to get out the door to the twins' one year check up (2 months late!), I head into the kitchen because it had become unnaturally quiet. The scene that lay before me was the fridge door wide open, a lake of milk on the floor, Thing #1 sitting in it with a big grin on his face and Thing #2 holding the now half empty gallon milk container that started off pretty full. How he twisted the lid off in the first place will forever remain a mystery. I called for my man to get the babes feeling so grateful he was home while I resignedly trudged to get lots of old towels to clean up the mess.

We promptly put a fridge lock on that day! :oD
