sinus infection and the money jar

sinus infection for me. $168 for 5 pills so I can have a rum drink by saturday. Also our money jar, been hoarding spare coins and cash since October for the trip..... grand total, $555, not too bad!

owlie

You can tell its warmer out when the girls rescue owlie. He's a plastic owl who is suppose to live by the pond to keep the herons from eating the fish. The girls think he's a pet and want to keep him inside. So this is where I found him over the weekend, in the middle of the living room with a towel around him. Who needs American girl dolls when you've got a good old fashioned plastic owl, right?

irish dance costumes are in!

when its 65 on a friday in february, one should.....

head to main beach for happy hour!

6 more days......

guess what we found!

the lost leapsters of last spring have been found! I thought I left them at Hopkins after Julia's second pneumonia, but my mom found them and you'll never guess where?.....In the wood box at the condo at 7 springs.....I am guessing Avery was being helpful in helping us clean up before leaving the condo last spring and stuck them in there, and no one has made a fire since, until last sat when she opened it up and tada....here they are. So.....anyone need a leapster?

chocolate cooking class

A christmas gift to alex and I from dick and ann, was an evening cooking class at Baltimore International College on chocolate. Needless to say it was fun and we came home with belly aches!

weekend fun

20 days and counting...

another day on the couch

today she mastered solitaire. hopefully school tomorrow. Happy Birthday Alex!

Yeah Fever!!!

yeah its the flu!!! She started a fever yesterday afternoon so we know its a virus. Morning vomiting is also a sign of intracranial pressure but she would have had a headache and she didn't, but its hard to rationalize with us. Took great restraint not to start high fiving alex! She is still home and seemingly better though she is not eating too much.

weekend sewing project

happy february, I think. Pillows the girls and alex made over the weekend. Jul is home sick today throwing up. We hope its just flu, willing her to have a fever or for avery to get sick so we can feel at ease that its just flu not tumor. Ah the sick and twisted life we lead...
