Highlights from today: (click here for pictures)
- Church this morning-at one point while getting ready, Mom told the kids that if she didn’t have time to feed Campbell then nobody in the house would eat. That helped them scurry along a little bit faster. Fortunately for everyone that likes their cinna minis, Mom was able to feed Campbell so we were able to stop for breakfast.
- Reagan even more excited today putting on her Sunday dress. She and Lilly had declared today “Dress Matching Day” two weeks ago. Glad the moms remembered! Reagan wanted to find Lilly as soon as we got to church – had to remind her we go to different churches but would see each other at Grannymom’s for lunch (which we did and both were very excited to have their matching dresses on!)
- On the way to church, Mom bet Dad that one of the coughers (Graham, Anderson or Campbell) would cough until they were sick at church. Dad said that was fine as long as it didn’t happen in his van!
- Reagan does so well in big church especially since Mom won’t let her touch her crayons until the sermon. And today as soon as we sat down for the sermon, Reagan said “can I color now?” Then Mom and Dad went to Anderson’s room to work. Since it was a nice day, we went outside to play.
- Campbell did spit up on her church dress and had to be changed at church-so Mom did win her bet. But then Dad really lost his bet. Anderson coughed and coughed until he got sick on the way home. Mom was almost able to make it in time with the bag. She unbuckled and crawled over seats and bags to make it there. Anderson held it together pretty well except a few tears were shed for his leftover cinna mini-what Mom didn’t catch in her bag, the cinna mini caught!
- Eating lunch at Grannymom’s house and then swinging on the swing in the rain and playing “flower, flower, butterfly” which we have played each Sunday at Grannymom’s house since Lilly’s birthday party!
- Coming home and everyone getting lots of medicine-the boys had cough medicine along with vapor rub and Anderson’s excema is bad since he is sick so he got a hydrocortisone rub down! Surprisingly, everyone took their meds and went to sleep well. Anderson was the first one up at 5:30 and Mom had to wake Campbell and Graham up after 6! They were tired.
- Pops had called asking Mom to bring him some éclairs from New Orleans. Reagan asked what éclairs were and Mom said they were like donuts. She told Mom that Pops was trying to lose weight and then asked if strawberries are healthy. Mom said yes and Reagan said we should buy those for Pops instead. Poor Pops, no éclairs for him!
- Supper in front of the tv tonight (we were skipping church due to all of the coughiness taking place -- and Dad had to go early for a meeting.) Graham was eating his sandwich and chips by Campbell and Reagan and Anderson were on the couch. Mom and Dad were in the kitchen talking when Mom heard a crunch. She looked up and Campbell had her hands full of pringles and was munching away!
- Playing our new Hungry Hungry Hippos game from Kennedy, Camryn and Laynie. All of the noise made Campbell so excited. Graham is a little young but he enjoyed playing. Reagan and Anderson begged to play more but it was bedtime
- After everyone was giving another dose of medicine, they all headed to bed! And so far, it sounds like the coughing has stopped for the night!
