Where has the time gone?

January sort of got away from me and now here we are in February!  Funny thing is, I still don't have much to say.  I hate when I leave my blog for this long.  It's always so hard to get back on track.

We have been keeping busy with all our usual stuff, plus I am starting to try to tackle a project everyday.  When I say project, I mean, clean out a drawer or wipe off a shelf in the bathroom I haven't wiped in 2 months.  So far I've cleaned out 4 cabinets, 2 drawers, and my pantry.  Not a bad start but I'm sure by the time I get through my list it will be time to start over again.

Colin has been a sick boy.  He started in with a cough and runny nose.  That quickly turned into croup and ended up having to go in to the doctors office to get a shot for that.  Now he is just a fevery-coughing-snotty mess.  Poor guy is just plain miserable!  Am I being unrealistic to hope that the rest of us escape this bug? 

Oh here is an interesting tid-bit.  When I took Colin to the doctor, I asked about why my boys tend to get croup when they catch a cold.  He said that some kids just have that tendency.  He said that there could be 100 kids with the same cold and three of them might get croup with it.  Unbelievable! Matt and I got ALL three of those kids!  We thought maybe we should start playing the lottery or something with all our luck:) 

I think I've rambled enough for today.  Happy Tuesday!

p.s.
I seemed to have lost the spell checker option for my posts.  Where did it go?  I can't spell so I hope you all can get through this without too much trouble:)

  3. My youngest (age 8) just got over a nasty, croupy cold, too. I hope your little guy kicks it soon.
