Where Has the Time Gone??

I really don't feel like there has been that much happening around here, so I haven't been very good about blogging...mainly since there isn't anything interesting to share.

Zach did end up with bronchiolitis about 2 weeks ago. So there were many sleepless nights for him and I trying to help him find some relief. The doctor put him on 5-days of a steroid along with continuing the Albuterol I started (after his first night of very difficult breathing) every 3-4 hrs as needed. I am VERY thankful that it didn't get any worse and turn into pneumonia again and he didn't end up with an ear infection! He still has a lingering cough, but other than that seems to be pretty much back to normal.

Drew experienced the death of his first pet. One of his fish died this past Saturday and Drew and I flushed him. Surprisingly, Drew has taken it all very well...I mean he is sad one of his fish are gone, but he was most upset when he thought I was going to flush it without him getting to say good by to the fish. Now he just wants to know when we are going to get another one so his remaining flish doesn't get lonely

We finally have the boys all settled in their new rooms and John finished installing the new closet organization stuff in Drew's new closet (just realized I forgot to get before and after pictures of it). Now to just do some final little things in 3 of the closets and that project will be done! *CHEER* We are also talking with the guy who installed all our hardwood and tile about him fixing the drainage problem in our yard as well as finishing up the play area in the back that John started on 2 years ago ;)

Other than that, we have been enjoying the beautiful weather whenever we get a chance. The boys are enjoying getting the chance to play in their sandbox, chase balls and play with bubbles.



Ok, I need to go do some cleaning while the boys are down for naps. Especially since one of my cousins (along with 3-4 of his friends) are crashing here when they come down next weekend for a concert. I REALLY need to get stuff picked up in the basement so there is someplace for them to sleep! *laugh* Right now, with the toys all over the place down there, you can't even get to the pull-out bed in the couch or find room to put the blow-up matress I borrowed from my parents!

Oh poor Zach, I am glad he is feeling a little better though, sending 'Get Well Vibes'.

Hmmm, I am beginning to realise that husbands all over the world, are straters and not finishers...glad to realise it isn't just our pocket of the world that it happens in!

Oh and the pics are just gorgeous Hen, really love the bubble ones, there is something so innocent about kids with bubbles and the sheer enjoyment something so simple brings.

YOU GUESSED RIGHT! IT IS BRONTE AND I AM OVER THE MOON!!!

Oh Jen - poor little Zach, he really seems to be going through it huh?

Glad all the "jobs" are getting done - what will you all do with yourselves afterwards? haha.

The boys are so cute! Handsome little chaps i have to say! Hugs

I'm glad Zach is doing better! Poor fish. That's tough. A few years ago, we were given one as a Christmas white elephant gift. (!) It promptly died, much to my little boys' sorrow, so I went to WalMat and bought another goldfish. It died a few days later... So no more fish.

Cute photos too! Love the bubbles!
