We Love Joe

Joe Jonas that is! I took the girls to see the Jonas Brothers 3D concert/movie last weekend. While the movie itself was like pulling teeth, I myself am not a big Jonas Brothers fan, the girls were too cute. They are totally in love with Joe Jonas. Sarah was a little weirded out by the 3D at first but other than the brothers throwing a guitar pick or two, there wasn't anything really coming at you. Hannah just loved it. She was drooling after Joe and his brothers the whole time. Luckily we were really the other ones in the theatre b/c she kept talking about them the whole time..."mommy, I wish one of the Jonas Brothers could be my boyfriend." Hey a girl can dream right?!

Searching for a Miracle Cure

We are now at Day 5. My middle daughter has been home with a fever since 2:30 on Monday afternoon. She has been to see the doctor. There is nothing "wrong" with her, just a fever virus. Just enough so she is a bit cranky. However, not so easy to deal with extended sickness when both my husband and I work. Luckily, I can now work from home periodically so I have done so for 1 full and 2 half days this week. We were really hoping she would be fine this morning. Her mood had improved significantly yesterday and she didn't have a fever most of the day. This morning, the fever had returned. To make matters worse, the other two kids woke up hot this morning as well. Not that I didn't expect that but it still sucks. We are looking at sickness through Wednesday of next week. Will it ever end???

I have our babysitter with them today. I was already at work by the time the kids awoke. We are so blessed to have Melissa. She is a godsend!! She has been able to stay with Hannah this week when I needed to be in the office. It'll cost me a small fortune but at least we'll still be able to take a vacation with my days that I didn't have to use to cover at home. I wish I could be home with them through every illness but it just isn't feasible, especially when they never get sick at the same time but tend to drag it out as long as possible.

Is it summer yet?? No one really gets sick in the summer, right??

One season over....

Noah's roller hockey season is finally over...now begins baseball and soccer. But before we moved on, I had to be sure to do a couple of layouts for his book. His team, Bruins, finished 3rd with a record of 5-3-1. Not bad. It was his first year playing. They really pushed the kids which was a nice change. He is at an age now where there starts to be real competition. The league he played in was 7-11 year olds. Big difference b/w him at 7 and a huge 11 year old!! He had a ton of fun. Hopefully he wants to continue with it in the fall. I surely enjoyed being a rooting spectator!!
