Sunday Sampler

I stayed home from Church today with Kate and Preston. Preston has an ear infection and possibly bronchitis. He is wheezy and coughs (then throws up-yuck- I think he should get an award for how many times he's thrown up in his short lifetime!). We are doing breathing treatments on him when he gets too wheezy. Today, he actually seemed to do better and kept his food down. What's ironic is when the pharmacist gave me the antibiotics for Preston she raved about how good it tastes and how she wishes all antibiotics tasted this good and so it won't be a problem to give to him. Well... it is awful to give to him! He spits it out every time so we have to hold him down and basically put it down his throat for him to swallow. Then he gags and almost throws up! Annoying... Kate started the barking cough more yesterday so we had her stay home too. Kyle had to teach gospel doctrine so he went to church. He said it was lonely without us there with him. Ahhhh.

It's always weird when you don't go to church. It's part of our routine in our week and we enjoy it. So at home we listened to the primary songs we are learning for the year in primary and actually had a fun morning together playing. After naps, we headed on a Sunday drive (we used to take them growing up and we loved them). We went to the Ballard Locks to watch the ships come in and out. Kate and Preston had fun, it was beautiful weather and a nice break from being in the house. Right before we were about to leave to go home Kate said, "I miss my home." HA! I don't know where she got that from. Like our home is that exciting, but I guess I'm glad she likes it. :)

Poor Preston. Hopefully he will outgrow all the nasty little bugs that get to him now. I'm sure he is annoyed with them as much as you guys are. Thank heaven for Sunday drives. Hey I just got my mail on Saturday....ha you know how I like mail. Anywho my little yellow coaster was in there. Was that the most valuable item they could find? lol Miss you all!

We had a lot of people gone yesterday - we only had 7 kids in nursery. There's something yucky going around.

I love Sunday drives too! I hope the kiddies feel better soon!

Oh the guilt! I'm so sorry the kids got what we had. If they didn't have those gag reflexes it might not be too bad. I hope it's over soon.

I used to take the kids on Sunday drives when Milo was working graveyard at the jail. We would go on all these different drives around Moses looking for all the different animals. The Ballard locks sound much more fun!

Happy Anniversary!!!
