Tracy - Hope Ansley feels better quickly. And they're seriously talking about closing your school? UGH!! Fingers crossed and prayers going up.
Stacy - Poor Elim!!! Get better baby!!! Seemed my kids were always sick for birthday parties. Can't wait to see the pictures of this one. What theme did you end up going with?
Katie - 135 kids failing? Geez a whiz@!!** The remodel will so be worth all the mess and noise. Everyone I know who has gone through it hates the process but is so happy in the end.
Can I just check out today? I would be so happy to sit in front of the tv watching all the prep and stuff for the game Sunday, or other mindless tv.

Donna-Yes, check out today, make it a jammie day! Yep, 135 8th graders, that is only one grade, I haven't even made it to the 6th and 7th graders!
Tracy-Poor Ansley, I hope that she recovers so that you can relax this weekend.
Stacy-We are dealing with strep in our house. I hope that Elim gets better in time for his big day!
We had a wonderful chili cook off at school today! I so enjoyed my lunch, it was so nice to not have to worry about packing everyone's lunch today! I was the deciding vote! I am so looking forward to the weekend to relax and unwind!!!!!

I'm slightly irritated, so much so, I called the non emergency police line today in my area. I'm in the car with Tori(in her car seat) parked in a ...parking space about to depart. A big beat up truck comes blazing through the parking lot 2 males, 1 female, and an infant on her lap in the cab of the truck. I watch, they park, and they all get out and go to an eating facility.
I don't know about where y'all live, but in Pennsylvania it's against the law to cruise around with a baby on your lap.
I sat in the car a few minutes, thinking..What if they get in an accident, that kid is going through the windshield. So I did what I thought was right and called the non-emergency line and gave a full description, where to find them and the license plate.
Was I wrong in doing this? Would you have done it?

Wish I could have checked out. My brother and his kids are coming tonight (it was his step-daughter who had the baby Wednesday) and after me being gone all last weekend, my house was TRASHED!!
Chili cookoff sounds awesome Katie. Now I'm hungry for chili. lol. I can't believe there are that many kids failing. Yikes. Good thing they have you, right?
Liz - Good for you. Sometimes people need to be saved from themselves.
Off to ballet and then basketball.

Katie: Ugh, strep is the worst!! I hope all the kiddos feel better!
Liz: You go momma!! I would've done the same thing if I had the non-emergency line saved on my phone, that's crazy!
Nother round of Omnicef for the little guy for ear/sinus infection. Gotta get the house all cleaned up before my father in law gets into town tomorrow!

Stacy~ I hope the antibiotics work to get the little man well before his big day!! Good luck on getting the party decor finished before the last minute. Donna~ Yuck on having to clean house. I had to do some myself this morning. The plumber is coming and I didn't want him to refuse to enter!!  There's still plenty more to do, but it's not completely embarrassing right this second. Liz~ I totally would've called that in. I've called in situations when kids were picked up from school with small siblings climbing all over the car. I know that seats are expensive, but there are plenty of organizations that will help if you can't afford it. Ansley was fine all day after her episode Thursday morning, but then yesterday morning, about 6:45, she threw up again...  Afterwards she was fine again! I think that there might be some nasty drainage that's causing issues when she's empty. Today she's perfectly fine and eating all kind of junk already.... Julie~ If you're peaking in.....I keep looking for you and Riley on the Today show since they've been in your city for a few days!!! Ya'll have all of those great connections and I fully expect you to be on the front row complete with interview!!

Tracy: Still had a fever this afternoon after the motrin wore off, but none tonight, fingers crossed it stays away tomorrow! I think Dr. Tracy has hit the nail on the head again, it does sound like maybe she's throwing up from something other than her tummy hurting if she's eating all that junk food! Lauren: Uh....would you continue speaking to me if I said I have no clue who is even playing? Other than the obvious Giants that you mentioned. Been busy here, started out with a friend's baby shower, real low key and fun talking to them all about labor stories, even the girls' labor without weird looks. Then picked up a train table for Elim, we'll call it an early birthday present, it's more of a table to put toys on to play than just trains, got it from a friend for $20! Then out to dinner. Elim stayed up from noon to when we put him down to bed at 8:30......  we attempted a nap in there but gave up when it was getting to close to bedtime. He was deliriously happy, it was pretty funny.

Hope all the other kiddos are on the mend as well! I had my first bought of morning sickness in three pregnancies! Fritos... probably not for another 10 years.

Stacy-I sure hope Elim gets better soon, poor little man.
Tracy-I hope that Ansley stops throwing up, poor baby.
I am off to see "One for the Money" I love me some Janet Evanovich books, they make me laugh out loud. I hope the movie does the same!

Happy Sunday!
Lauren-Super bowl = commercials, seeing the Steelers aren't playing. Altho, we did have some go into the football hall of fame yesterday. No Jerome Bettis tho, boooo!
Morning sickness...*cringes*...I just remember dry heaving with Tori to the point I'd puke. PS-I loved Coca-cola and milk mixed when preggo with Mikey.
Stacy/Tracy- Hope your babies feel better soon!
Katie-I love books and movies that make me LOL!
Blah here, Potty training is a bust. I ordered this potty princess doll that clearly said online that it drinks and goes potty. Dudes, it doesn't drink or go potty. It has a potty that flushes and talks to you. But doesn't potty. I ordered it because it was the only potty doll that had a sippy cup and not a bottle. Booo.
If my DH tells me one more time it's my fault our kid weighs 19 pounds,, I'm not quite sure what I'll do. EX-last night she starts with "yogurt, yogurt, yogurt" Mind you, she ate 4 whole things of yogurt and a go gurt---that's 5 things of yogurt in one day. I said no, gave her a banana and cheerios instead(she was delighted with the banana/cheerios) "that's why she only weighs 19 pounds, you don't feed her what she wants."blah blah blah"Just give it to her".....Look dude, I'm not giving her 6 things of yogurt in one day. Whole fact of the matter I just bought 20/$10 on Friday and there is 9 left. Ladies, it's the simple things that get under my skin and make horrible thoughts go through my head.
I start classes next week. Should be interesting. I hope I'm not in there with a bunch of teeny boppers.
Thank you and YAY for the shining star!!! Brought a smile to my face.

Okay---so did I really say that Ansley was all better??? Yep, yesterday...going strong all day long and off with her daddy last night. 6:30 this morning she starts with sickness again from top and bottom!! After that hour, she seems to be over it! Just enough to cancel our Superbowl plans..... Lauren~ I don't have a team preference tonight. I have to say that I do hold a grude against Eli Manning for how he acted when he was recruited by the team that wasn't the one that he wanted right out of college. I mean come on---you're getting paid millions---who cares?? Stacy~ Silly tired babies are so fun to watch!! I hope that the boy is still holding off the fever. Liz~ If the man has better options of getting her to gain weight, then tell him to go for it!! That's aggravating no matter how you look at it! Katie~ Have you gotten your cast off already?? I haven't heard you mention it and didn't know. I think I forgot to comment on the phone calls for failure last time too. Isn't it aggravating when you bust your butt to help kids and they blow it off???? I have several doing that right now and it drives me completely insane!!

Leigh: That's awesome for Tucker! I hope he takes to even more yummy blends that mommy creates:)
Stacy: Hope your little boy gets better for his big celebration. I'm with you. Who's playing again (he he)? Score on the train table!
Liz: Urgh, the blame game. I'm sorry for that. I think it's great that she's eating and congrats on getting her to try other foods. I know a bit about that. Mr. T is a super picky eater. He tried Honey Nut Cheerios yesterday for the first time.
Lauren: No more Fritos, huh? Sorry for the morning sickness. One thing I will never eat again is KFC. I haven't been there since 2007 and everytime I see a commercial, I have to put my hands up to cover my eyes. It was an awful aftermath. I will forget it. Funny, but the things that made me sick with Mr. T are the same foods he refuses to try.
Ooh, I wanted to share something that happened last week or so and not sure I mentioned. Tristyn put on his socks and his shoes all my himself. Life changing! He's been doing it ever since and it's really neat. Big for us, so proud:)

I'll never eat those rotisserie chickens again Liz: Big big hugs momma! Even if you are there with a bunch of teeny boppers, they'll look at you like you know everything! It's a win! Tracy: Elim and Ansley must be on the same page! His fever was gone for all of yesterday and this morning, but this afternoon it's back up and higher than it originally was! I hope the worst is over for Ansley. Lindsay: Aaah!! Go Tristyn! That's wonderful! I'm making a rainbow balloon wreath for Elim, about halfway done and my thumb feels like it's gonna fall off! It's gonna be super cute though, and I plan on using it as the official birthday wreath in the house so it'll last for awhile!

Wow, can't believe I haven't made it on Share in a couple of days. Things have been crazy around here and I feel like I spend so much time on the computer at night for work, I just can't seem to get to Share! Liz - So sorry things are getting snippy about Tori's weight. It's not your fault!! Stacy - You o know we need lots and lots and lots of pictures right?!? Lauren - sorry about the morning sickness. Maybe this one's going to be a little stinker seeing Micah is so mild mannered.  Lindsay - Give Tristyn a big hugs from all of us! Way to go! Leigh - Tucker is so amazing... not that you needed someone to tell you that. I am having such difficultly figuring out the whole work life balance.  My kids are getting frustrated that I work in the evenings at home sometimes but the times I don't have to work while they are in school is the time I do my errands. It's much easier to do work in the evenings at home than to drag 2 kids to the store with me. I know I'll get the hang of it, but I hope it happens quick!

It's the little things that make the biggest smiles for everyone! So far so good with Ansley's crud....I'm not getting too excited though because I've thought we were good with it for 4 days now. Got a question for you football girls..... Do you think that Bill Belecheck has more than one "cut off" sweatshirt or is that the only one and he wears it every weekend??? Just wondering.....

Jackie- I hear ya on balancing the work at home, it's so tough to try to find time for everything and to know when work is "done" when you're at home. Sometimes I wish I could just clock in and clock out.
What a great game! Totally exciting 'til the very end! And we were at our friend's house who has a house very similar to ones in the Decendents... yeah... it's that big. And Micah had a blast running all over with the big kids. Great time had by all!
And... day three of no nursing! He didn't even ask today. Awww and yaaah all at the same time.

I sad, but also okay, knowing the girls will be back in commission in a few months helps. They need a break! He still wants a hand down my shirt a lot... but shooots... what XY type doesn't!? lol!

Jessica~ Too funny on not being excited since it affects your family time. I can totally get that! I was talking about the coach of the Patriots. He always wears a sweatshirt with the sleeves cut off...... Lauren~ Fun! Fun!! Love it when the kids enjoy the event too! I'll bet he slept well afterwards too. Yay for being "free", but boo for Micah man growing up so fast. Ansley's fine for today....I say that lightly because who knows what tomorrow will bring for her. Today was haircuts and picking out class Valentine's. Then a few groceries.... We just finished lunch and now I'll be back on the search for articles for my class. I so dislike writing reviews of literature.... Only 11 months to go and I'll be done with grad school.....again.

Happy Monday-after-SuperBowl!!! Ugh. Is it bedtime yet?
Tracy - Ansley still holding up? Poor girl, that does not sound like any kind of fun. As for Belecheck heeheehee. Pretty sure it's the same one. Ick.
Lauren - Total ick on the Fritos doing a reverse. I still gag when I touch raw chicken (courtesy of my pregnancy with Ryley). Sounds like a totally fun time for Micah man. And as for the hand down the shirt, Ethan still to this day will slap his hand up there. Oy. Thankfully, very few and far between. lol
Jessica - That would be a bummer part of the whole Giants winning thing.
Jackie - Hang in there. You'll work it out. I would so much rather go to the store without kids.
Busy, busy, busy weekend. Grace had her first basketball game ever = total entertainment. Got to see and hold the great-niece Danika again. She's a little cutie that one. Also got to run with my brother yesterday which is the best. Now I have to wait until the end of April to see him again. I've been spoiled seeing him three times since Christmas. This month is a serious cluster of sports activities, therapy, physical therapy (for my stupid neck and shoulder), etc. Yes, the craziness is starting again. How am I supposed to get Ryley to baseball practice, Grace to soccer tryouts, and Ethan to therapy all at the same time and one in a completely other city? AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
