catching up

lots going on around here and no time to blog

kellen had his birthday party a week late due to sickness and a funeral

the pics from the party are on a friend's camera

someday i will get them on my computer

i intend to blog about the party

*****

my poppy died january 16th

we attended his funeral the 19th

he is greatly missed!

i intend to post a blog honoring him and his life

began one last week

but the tears started flowing when i pulled up pictures

maybe next week it will be easier

*****

anna turned 11 months last week

she is changing very quickly at this age

finally got two teeth

3.5 months after her brother got his first tooth

thought they would never come

she has figured out how to scoot forward on her belly

by grabbing the carpet and pulling

while lifting her booty off the ground

kinda looks like an inch worm

i intend to post pics of my sweet pea at 11 months

*****

this has been the winter of sickness

as soon as the kids get over one thing

they catch another

anna is currently on antibiotics for her first ear infection

kellen is in the last stages of a cold

he woke up this morning with a stomach bug

wondering if there is something i should do

or cease doing to stop this cycle

*****

our house has been on the market for one month now

four lookers

no buyers

anxiously awaiting the time when tandon can switch jobs

and be much more present in our home

trying to be content and trust

it's hard

*****

wondering what the weather is going to do this week

forecast for ice and 8-10 inches of snow

winter is my favorite

minus the sickness

maybe we should move to omaha

i hear they get lots of snow
