time flies

Sat. we went to Chicago. Just Brent and I. We left the kids home, all six of them.....yes the house was still standing when we got home. They did really well and took care of everything they were supposed to. Brent and I went down to Chicago to attend the Chicago Temple and we had a nice time, but at the end session Brent was really lightheaded. We thought it was because he hadn't eaten since 5am and it was now 11am. So we got him something to eat and headed home.

But it wasn't just that he needed food, it turns out that he has the same virus as the kids. So he had a mostly miserable ride home. He stayed home from church, and he's been home from work the last two days. He's probably going to stay home again tomorrow.

In the meantime, I got to take Amanda to Urgent Care Friday and she has a sinus infection, I got to take Than yesterday, to our regular clinic and he has strep throat, as does Max, and Collin is still on antibiotics from a previous ear infection. So I have four kids on antibiotics, such fun. For the most part I do think people are healing, it's just been a way slow process.....

I have not been home for more than a few hours since last Wed. I am excited for tomorrow, I don't have to go anywhere! Well, except next door, to bottle feed three lambs.....but that really feels like an extension of our normal chores. And how can you consider feeding three 4 day old lambs a chore!! Unfortunately it's because their mom died this morning......they are dang cute and they should be OK, even with the loss of their mom.

I'll try to remember to take pictures tomorrow. Today Collin did it by himself, because I had my LAST physical therapy apt.!! Yeah, I am a LITTLE excited about that! I messed up my shoulder and now it's doing good enough that I don't have to go back again!

Now I'm off to enjoy the Biggest Loser!
