Sick again

This family can't seem to stay healthy this year. It seems like once one person gets well, someone else gets sick. Mia was sent home Friday with a fever, and she ended up with an outer ear infection and sore throat and cold, and $97 worth of meds! Saturday I woke up with a fever, and was either freezing or sweating all day. Yesterday I thought I'd be better, but no luck there. Today I planned to go to work no matter what, because next week is the math TAKS test and I need to be with my kids. But I woke up with another fever and an extremely sore throat, so I skipped work and went to the doctor. Glad I did, because I have strep and mono. I really hope the steroids and meds kick in quickly so I can get to work to help the kids cram for their math test. The good news is that Mia seems to have responded well to her meds and is doing much better.

House Hopes

I found it. The house I want. It doesn't look like other houses in Killeen. It has 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a bonus room above the garage - perfect for ALL the kids' toys (and for Marc when I need a break!!)
So now we have to decide if we want to seriously pursue it or not. But I really love it. And it has a red front door. Marc claims that's not a reason to buy a new house, but I think it helps...kind of like the cherry on top of a sundae!

Look down...

Not sure why, but I finally published my Easter photos, and it appeared a few entries down, so scroll down for Easter pics of my kids!

Baby Jack

My friend and college roommate Darcy had her baby last night. They are both doing well. I wanted to put this on my blog to ask that you all keep her and baby Jack in your thoughts and prayers. Her husband was killed a few months ago, so she is going through this wonderful experience without her husband, and I can't imagine how hard that is for her. Thanks.
