Best day of the week!

We’ve had a small virus passing through our kidlets starting with Boston and London and yesterday moved to Julie and Rachel.  Fever, lethargy and all gone after a good night of sleep.  Rachel had a headache yesterday and then got a fever and went to bed before 6pm and still (at 715am) has gotten out of bed yet.  Julie fell asleep at 7pm with a newly acquired fever and has been up for at least an hour.   Now I am sitting here wondering if Rachel has had this virus for longer because of her disease?  I made chocolate chip cookies for the kiddos and a pot of tea to try and make her headache go away (caffeine) but she wouldn’t touch any of it.  London was thrilled for the cookies.

Holly is doing well.  Its still a learning experience having a dog.  Knowing how much to feed her and at what times, knowing when to take her to the bathroom.  Seriously like bringing a new baby home from the hospital.

Julie is excited for Mrs Buttkus, who I assure her, DOES NOT kiss butts.  I am sure that her new teacher has heard all of the butt and butt kissing jokes before and has a way to get them to stop.  LOL  I am going to probably cry my eyes out putting her on the bus (which I am not sure I want to do but am going to do anyways because I have to let go a little bit in order to be the best possible Mom to all 4 children).

London is so excited to start preschool.  He is going half days and will have the same preschool teacher that Julie had for the last 2 years,  He is going to LOVE it!

Boston who flipped out for several days about a Buzz Lightyear toy which I finally bought him, has since played with Buzz in the sandbox and then “washed” him when I wasn’t looking.  Guess which newly acquired Buzz Lightyear toy doesn’t work anymore?  So annoyed.  Hopefully we’ll get some sound back because he is, as you guessed, is flipping out again.  I should laugh more about this or he’ll drive me nuts all on his 2-year-old-cuteness own.

Woke up to a fantastically chilly morning today.  Perfect way to start the best day of the week.  Now to get the trash out…
