GAHRRRRRrrrrrghghghghgghghgrumblegrrrrrr

The flu has hit our house. I don't know where it came from and who gave it to us, but it started with me Sunday night. I was better by Tuesday and we thought we were in the clear because I was a germ nazi and kept all kiddos away from me. However, driving Cameron to preschool this morning Katey Jane so lovingly exploded her breakfast all over herself and the car seat, and the van!! I was hopeful and thought she might have gotten car sick..........

Not to be.

After dropping off Cameron we raced to make a return and get diapers (we had zero left at home), then on our way back she let loose again in the car. Another outfit and car seat down. CRAP. Landon was screaming - I do mean screaming - like he was being bitten. He was hungry and she puked right as I had pulled over to do a quickie nurse. Oh man, the poor little guy was so angry when we got home he could barely drink his bottle. My van is sitting in the garage waiting for me to go and clean it........and i am sitting here blogging about my hellish morning.

Halsy and Cameron and Landon are unaffected - so they will be spending their time downstairs, while I get the lovely job of caring for the sick 2 year old upstairs. Hopefully it will not spread further, but I am not hopeful. Luckily it is only a 24 hour bug........and we hope we don't have to make any scary trips to the doctor.

I am saying lots of prayers and trying not to scream.

**Post Edit: Almost EVERYONE got the flu. It was fast and violent and very few were left unscathed. Landon, Grandpa, GG, Austin, and Jena were the only people to NOT get the flu. Lucky ducks!!

Landon the Great

My dad did this trick with me when I was a little girl and Halsy has done it with all our kids so far. Here is Landon's first balancing act!!

A Little James Brown Action for ya......

Scaredy Cat

Katey Jane is such a scaredy cat! If seems everything scares her these days. Movies, books, dogs, toys, and anything else she deems as "scary". When she is watching a movie, we know she is getting nervous because she starts to back away from the TV. She keeps going until she is about in the kitchen :) she is still totally watching, but somehow being farther from the movie makes it better!

11 Days

We went with all of Halsy's family to the great wolf lodge 11 days ago and Cameron just decided to take off his bracelet from the water park!

I think he had a good time :)

Laughter

One of my favorite things!!

4 months old

Landon is growing so fast! We are loving every minute. He is the happiest baby. Very content and sweet. He loves to sleep. He sleeps 10-12 hours a night with only one feeding in the middle of the night! He takes 3 naps during the day - 2 cat naps and one big one. He is wearing 6 month clothing and 9 or 12 month pajamas!!! He is such a chub, we pinch and kiss his rolls/cheeks/thighs daily. He has started laughing. We get big smiles and belly laughs, oh it is so cute!!! He pushes up when you put him on his tummy and rolling is not far off! His favorite part of the day is bath time. He hears the water and gets excited. We are loving having Landon in our family!!
