random update!

well it's been awhile!

we are still sick. cassandra is better and went back to school on monday. i kept savannah home but sent her yesterday. today she is home again with a fever and bad coughing/congestion. i guess i sent her back to school too early. we'll see. griffin is still congested but it's not slowing him down. i felt horrible yesterday but fine today (thanks, in part, to claritin D). alyssa started out with the virus, ended up with an ear infection and is also cutting her 2 year molars! good times :-)

all that said we are laying low. the weather has been strange, very very windy off and on which is hell on allergies. today we are 71 degrees but supposed to be 92 by monday. go figure. i guess we should be thankful for all the breaks but the wind is so bad you can't open windows anyway to enjoy the cooler temps because the house would be covered by a sheet of dirt inside.

shane is doing well, his blood levels were a bit high (too thin) so he's doing some adjustments and must be rechecked on friday. he's doing pretty well on his new eating habits. he even tried some fish on easter (he hates fish). i can't say he enjoyed it but he's trying.

other than that, just keeping a low profile and trying to get well. i can tell you i am so sick of TV i could puke. none of us ever watch that much tv but when the kids are sick there isn't much else to do. i can't wait to get them out to the park when everyone is well.

cassandra had to miss her county fair with the goat. she had missed the AIMS test at school and the make up tests are this week (during county fair) plus she has missed so much school i couldn't see taking her out for 3 more days for showing. i know she's disappointed but she can still show holly in the fall.

take care and be healthy!
