Catching Up

Well it's been a long time since I've posted in blog land...we have had a rough few months over here and I haven't had time to do anything. 

So, the last time I posted we had ended the crazy trips to the ER and for a while there in the middle of October things were going well.  Then Timothy started throwing up again, and again, and again until finally I took him back to the doctor.  He was complaining that his stomach hurt constantly so she did some blood work and referred us to a GI doctor.  We saw her and she she did an x-ray, said he was mildly constipated (which I thought was weird, with all the puking) and ordered an endoscopy.  So, we went through all the prep for that and he came through the procedure fine and all the results came back normal...awesome.

In the middle of all that, Charlotte and Caroline took turns having colds and coughing their heads off.  A couple of weeks before Christmas, we all caught a stomach bug.  Between Christmas and New Year's we all got hit with the worst cold I've ever had in years and years.  Mine turned into a sinus infection.  For others it was bronchitis, pneumonia, the flu, stomach issues...you name it, we had it!  So needless to say, it's been hard to find time to get on the internet for more than a few minutes at a time!

In the middle of all the sickness, we had Christmas shopping, tree decorating, a trip to the mountains with all the family, school ending and starting again, busy busy times at church, me trying to coordinate a fundraiser at the kid's school...I'm exhausted.  And here I am, up at almost midnight because, again, we're dealing with a sick kid and planning to take two of them to the doctor tomorrow. 

It seems like these crazy germs are everywhere so please pray for us and I'll pray for you and maybe the groundhog is right and this horrible winter cold season is almost over!  And hopefully I will be able to be on here more regularly...and maybe add some pictures...because a certain little girl I know is turning two in a few weeks (yikes)!
