Sickness Going around the House

Well a bad cold is going around this household now. E started with it about 10 days ago. N has had it on and off...his seems to be okay other then a cough once in awhile. M & S woke up yesterday with it. E is now on antibiotics b/c of a very sore throat and cough that won't go away. Hopefully by the weekend we will all be feeling better.

Soon we will have pictures of our new furniture. We thought it wouldn't be in until Weds and then delivered on the weekend. Got the call yesterday that it was in and will be delivered on Thursday. So working on getting rid of the old stuff and reorganizing some things. Our living room will be crowded but cozy/comfortable. M & S are nervous about the kids with it. But plan to get glass top for the new coffee table (so kids can still run their cars on there w/o us worrying). Then there will be some new rules for the kids but hopefully they will learn them fast and why they are in place. Hoping to have the new stuff gone by tomorrow afternoon so I can clean the carpet before the new stuff comes.

Kids are getting more and more into board games. It's nice to watch them play together with them. We were all getting tired of Chutes & Ladders (only one the kids could play together with). So now we have Candy Land, Dora ABC, and just got at the 2nd hand store today Operation. Hopefully those will keep them busy for awhile. :-) Atleast they understand that they can't win every time. It's nice to hear N say good job to whoever won and be nice about it. We don't want him to ever be a sore loser...know that will be harder to teach when he gets into sports (hopefully this summer). But hopefully we will always be able to teach him that winning is not everything...it's have fun.

Well off to take N to school. Which he still loves and we are grateful for that!
