Just Random Stuff

Danica's flu found made it's way to me.  She missed school last week and it hit me Thursday.  Scott arrived home from a trip in the nick of time to take over when I went down. I did have to miss Lincoln's pogo sticking at the talent show Friday (where dad filled in as backstage mom since I'd volunteered!), Dani's cheer, the boys basketball game Saturday and a baby shower. It really wasn't been that bad; just felt like a bad cold and thankfully we didn't get any stomach issues along with it.

I was afraid Lincoln had caught it as well, but I think he was just taking advantage of my constant asking if he was feeling okay to lie in bed and play on the iPad all afternoon! Seems the three boys escaped it, so far.

On another medical note, a few weeks ago Alex had an allergic reaction. Still don't know what to  though. I was at cheer practice at the church while the boys played in the gym, and when they found me he had hives all over and watch itching terribly and panicking. An antihistamine tablet did the trick and hasn't happened since.

Here's a shot of our family Upward Basketball and cheer crew. The boys are having a rough season; they're playing great individually but the Bulls team has lost all four games. We had a first this weekend; Dan's squad cheering for her brothers. She enjoys it and the girls are pretty stinking cute to watch, but I'm glad I'm halfway through the coaching season!

Lex and Linc went to a friend's slumber birthday party Friday where they stayed up till 2:30 am. Here's how their Saturday afternoon looked:

Not too much else new to report. I have lots of projects and ideas of things I'd like to accomplish, but my motivation is lacking. I think it's just the hum-drum of mid winter blahs, so I'm waiting for inspiration to slap me upside the head.
