Well it has sure been a busy time in our house lately. At any given moment someone in the house is sick with something. Its sure has been a bad winter for everyone not just our house. I am currently making a big pot of chicken soup for a friend who has her 3kids down with the creapy crud but her husband came down with it last nite. It is so bad in their house they had to take 2 of their boys to the ER because of dehydration. I think we all need to do some decontaminating of our houses.

Right now Sarah has hand/foot/mouth disease. From what I have research I have done is it is a virus that just shows up with no rhyme or reason. Poor baby ahd blisters on her hands and feet and rashes on all extremeities. The worse one is her thumb she sucks....now how to get a 15month old to stop sucking her thumb in hopes to heal it all up????? Robert ran a fever of 103 for 2 1/2 days and complained of a sore throat. We saw the MD and he said that it could be the beginnings of hfm disease for him to as he could find nothing really wrong. One of the first signs is an unexplained high fever... So today I went out and bought 3 cans of lysol and clorox wipes I am bound to get rid of this as soon as possible so no one else gets it.... If you want more info on hfm disease here is a link http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/revb/enterovirus/hfhf.htm. We really are clean people for the most part. Of course there is clutter with a 4yr, 2yr and a 15mo toys and such.

Sarah is mobile walking or rather running most times and chatters to beat the band. It seems like she has alot to say thats for sure. Caleb is just growing in leaps and bounds. As a matter of fact he put on a pair of jeans that just a few days ago fit just right but are now tooo short and tight in waist....LOL Robert is .....well Robert is 2......but a joy none the less.

The livestock and rodeo are in Houston it's that time of the year. We are going to take the kids tot he livestock show. They just love the animals. Spring break will be spent a couple days up with my inlaws visiting. Sarah's godparents will be down as well from Amarillo this will be our chance to see them and for them to go nuts on their goddaughter. I am excited. The rest of spring break will be spent on getting more of the old house done so we can put it on the market. It is so time to do that. We are just blessed that we haven't really had to rush to much as we own the house outright so we don't have 2 mortages. But it is time to finish it once and for all. Once it is sold we will purchase new furniture for the new house, swing set/jungle gym for the kids backyard, might do some renovations with the new house we talked about but we will see.

The last weekend of spring break I am hoping to go on a women's retreat with our church. I haven't been on retreat in 5-6years and sooooo need time with my Lord alone and time with me to recharge.

Well that is about the update for us.... I know I know I know where are the pictures??????? I do have 9 cameras I still need developed and then will do a photo posting jam session so be prepared.... they will probably be jumbled and out of sequence but they will be here.....

Blessings on you all
