It's so much easier to blog when you keep up with the events happening in your life. Save them up, and it seems a little overwhelming. Then, as I'm sure you know, nothing ever gets blogged.
Take my Christmas, for example.
But anyway, I watched my sister (Melinda's) three kids this whole week while they went on a much needed vacation to Costa Rica. Don't worry people. I'm not that nice. We're doing a trade and she's got our kids in May.
So the week actually went really well, for the most part. The kids got along with eachother, they played outside a ton, and we tried to go and do something every day. Missy and Mom came to visit on separate occasions, which was nice too. But then I ate standing up the majority of the time, I swept the floors five or six times a day and did an unnatural amount of laundry. And don't ask me about how the nights went. I really don't want to talk about that.
And then there's the matter of little Carter, who has been healthy for six months and decided to choose this week to get a double ear infection. The kid had goup seeping out of every orifice on his face. Yeah, I said orifice. So he was miserable and clingy and grouchy for the greater part of the week, but he's feeling better now. thankfully.
My sister is back, with some crazy stories to tell, and everyone is in their own bed tonight. Yay!

I eat standing up at the island ALL THE TIME right now. Maybe when Liam is over this stage I can sit down again?! I'll probably gain 10 pounds:)
When it rains, it pours! ROFL!
I hope Carter gets over his ear infection very quickly (spring seems to wreak havoc on my kids- it is when they seem to catch every virus going around).
And I hope that you have a VERY relaxing time in May, when you get your turn on the babysitting trade! I need to work out a deal like that (except we don't have any nieces/nephews to trade with)!
You'll appreciate Hawaii all the more!
