Hello--I know, it's been WAY too long and I'm sorry for the lazy blogging. The kids are in bed and we are finally feeling better around this place, so I'm sitting down to update.
It was a nasty, gross week last week around the Jeffers' household. Last Saturday--the 24th I started to feel like I was coming down with a cold. The kids were gone and poor Josh had a wife who was in bed by 9:30 on the weekend....well a couple days later and two sick kids later I finally go in and low and behold--Influenza A :( It was a miserable week for me, Anna, and Addyson. Zach the lucky dog has kept his health--Josh came home sick on Thursday. TGI TAMAFLU!!! Everyone was on it except me---I was too far in timewise...but so far so good we are fever free tonight and heading back to work/school tomorrow!!!
Let's see what else I've missed out on....so Halloween just wasn't the same this year. This was the first year in the last...oh I don't know 5 that we didn't carve pumpkins with Rick and Tara :( This has become our annual tradition, but we were still in quarantine mode around here and didn't want to spread the plague. So we did carve 2 pumpkins with the kids and I have to say--I am up to a level two...no more triangle eyes for this gal ;) We had the best costumes and babysitters lined up before the plague hit and I was so bummed as we NEVER EVER have went out all dolled up for Halloween. So we did decide if we were feeling better, we would dress up and enjoy the day a little...boy am I glad we did! We were the Flinstones and went with our friends the Rubbles....also Anna was black cat, Zach a transformer, and Addy a ladybug! It was great!!
The kids are great....Anna was so down about missing a WHOLE WEEK of school! Her fever did get pretty high a few times--103/104 and she was on a motrin/tylenol diet for almost the whole week--so she is so excited to head back to school tomorrow!
Zach is funny....he is just a funny kid :) Always says things like, 'I love you Mom...'which melts my heart everytime. The other day he said, ' I love you more then video games...which to anyone who knows Zach...that is A LOT ;)
Addy has recieved a new nickname...the gray hair! She is such a two year old and she isn't two until January!!! She loves to get under her brothers skin and does everything in her power to gain full attention of whoever is here!!! She is starting to talk so much and her latest is 'Hi Babe' too funny and cute. She too had the fever and cough--but not as bad as Anna!
Josh is good. It's Sunday, so football was on the TV all day. He's feeling better tonight, but the Tamaflu makes him feel very dizzy...so that stinks!
All for now---have a good night :)
