Soooo Behind

So much has happened this month but I haven't had the time to blog it all as it happened. Mostly because our little family has been sick with one thing or another for the past 3-4 weeks.

We'll start with Kaylei running XCountry. She absolutely wanted to quit after the first week. But with some encouragement she stuck with it. At the District meet she was awesome!
Kaylei ran the entire race without stopping once. She did her best and I was so proud of her for not giving up.

Cody a couple weeks back, recieved some awards for cub scouts. He was so excited about getting some new badges and "pinning" his Mom.

This spider has decided to make a home at the front of our garage. It's been there few about two months. Our girls decided that they needed to feed the spider. Whenever they saw a fly, it would be hit hard enough to make it fall but not too hard so that it would still be twitching.

The fly would then be tossed onto the web. The girls like to see how fast the spider would come out and wrap up it's treat.
In the midst of all the goings-on we had a stomach bug that consisted of random puking and diarreah for two weeks. Right after that Cody brought home the swine flu. We know for sure what is was because Kaylei was hit really hard with it. Her fever kept spiking even with motrin in her. She would be awake but not concious. I took her in on Monday night and spent an hour in the dr office before we were even seen. By the time the nurse took us back, Kaylei's fever had spiked to 106.8. She woke up the next morning coherent and wanting to eat. Within a few days of Cody everyone except for me had come down with the swine flu. Alexis was the least affected and was only down for two days. I was very blessed not to have it as well, someone needed to be able to function. All in all I'm glad this month is over.
