Yucky Stomach Flu

So who has the stomach flu two times in three weeks? That would be ME! How crappy is my luck? Literally! The week of Valentine's I spent puking and on the couch and now the last week of February I spent 3 days on the toilet and on the couch. Joe also got sick the second time around so we were both on the couch for awhile. We seem to both be on the mend and back at work today. Hopefully, I won't get the flu again in another couple of weeks.

Playhouse Disney Live!


Ashlyn and Izzy spent last Friday night with us and on Saturday morning we went to see Playhouse Disney Live! Joe even came with us and appeared to be having a good time. I did see a smile once or twice.

The girls had a good time eating popcorn and drinking lemonade.


The day didn't end with the Disney show! We went back to our house and had lunch and then it was off to swimming at the YMCA. I don't have any pictures of the good time we had there though because they have a stupid rule about no cameras in the building.
It was a great day had by all and we can't wait to have them back again soon!

Family Updates

So exciting things have been happening on both sides of our family this past month. To begin with my brother Kyle got engaged to his long term girlfriend Katie. They also closed on their house in the same week! We are very excited to welcome Katie to our family. They are getting married this June and have asked both Joe and I to be in their wedding so that will be fun.


Joe's younger brother Jake and his wife Alex had their baby on Monday January 28th! Nicholas Alexander came into the world around 10:30pm weighing 5lbs, 14oz and was 19 inches long. He is a tiny peanut and Joe thinks that he looks like a turtle. Lily is very excited to be a big sister and that Nicholas is finally here! Joe and I were also honored to be asked to be Nicholas' godparents.
It's only February 1st and this is turning out to be one busy year!
