Miserable time

I know I went from having a wonderful time and now it's a miserable time? Saturday night Catherine came down with the flu and I was up all night with her throwing up. Of course, she only wanted mommy. Then yesterday, Megan was playing with the ear thermometer and wanted her temperature taken and when I took it, just playing around with her, it turns out she had a temperature. Great. Out of curiousity, I took Jonah's, who was fine, and mine, and I had a temperature. That would explained why I didn't feel the greatest yesterday. To make a long story short, the rest of us came down with the flu last night... Dan, me, Megan and Jonah all at the same time. I know, I know.. Who's supposed to take care of whom when you're all throwing up in the bathroom. I've never been more grateful for having more than one bathroom. Though we're (Dan & I) are exhausted today, we're all on the upside. Of course, Megan and Jonah are acting like nothing ever happened. Why can't they just want to lay around and recover when I want to lay around and recover. Oh well.

My week

Sorry I don't have any pictures for this week. Hopefully I'll get on the ball soon. We had our sewing classes this week and they went really well. I've even had a couple of people tell me they've worked on their projects (pillowcases) at home or have started other projects. I'm really excited and having lots of fun teaching it.

Update on Catherine's hearing test. It was fine, just like I thought. She's just wiggly, which makes the numbers come out lower. Imagine that, a 5 year old who's wiggly. I just can't imagine. It also means that when I have to call her name more than once to get her attention, she's can't use the excuse she can't hear me. She's just being 5.

Megan and Jonah are driving me nuts. If she isn't teasing and making him scream, he's pulling her hair and trying to get his way. And I thought it would be easier with just the two of them while Catherine's at school. I know, I know. This too shall pass. We're just trying to teach her not to tease and him not to be a brut. If he wants something he will pull or push you where he wants you to be to get what he wants. It'll be fun when he's older, right.

Today my wonderful husband took care of the kids and let me do whatever I want. It was a in return of his going to all the BYU football games and leaving me at home every Saturday while he does what he wants. I'm beginning to like football season. I spent a lovely 4 hours at the Family History Library (by myself) (with no kids). It was great. Of course I didn't find what I was looking for, but I did find lots of stuff I wasn't looking for. Such is the way of genealogy. I guess I'll just have to go back soon. Oh darn!

Well, back to inputting the names and places into my genealogy program.

Kiss me again babe!

Can I say, I just love baby kisses. Jonah has just started giving kisses, (I know he's a little behind, but he already knows the remote & the phone) and I just love when babies give kisses. They are so cute.

thump, thump "Can you hear me?"

I got a call from Catherine's school today saying they tested her twice on the hearing test and she did not pass, so they are referring me to an audiologist. I know she can hear (or at least I thought she could). And to think all this time we've had to call her name more than once to get her attention we thought she was just ignoring us. I'm sure it's all right, I'm curious to hear what he says though. It's Megan that has problems pronouncing "j's" and other letters.
More to be updated on that next week.

Megan's Dance

Since I posted Catherine's gymnastics I have to post of Megan's dance class. I was really nervous about her going because she was so clinging going to Nursery at the time. From day one she was great. She walked in like it was her own house, no crying or clinging or anything. She loved it and looked forward to going each week. Funny thing is, when the class was over and I asked her if she wanted another dance class, she said no.

Graverobbing

Ok, so we're not graverobbing here, we're just taking pictures of tombstones and my children are getting so used to going to cemeteries and when we have the camera out in general, us taking pictures of them. So now when we go to cemeteries, they want us to take pictures of them with the headstones. I think it's kind of funny, that's why I've added it.

24th of July Primary Activity

Here's Catherine at the Primary Activity Day. She did the stick pull and the other picture she's throwing clothespins in a bucket. We weren't able to stay for all of it. Catherine was sad because she likes to make homemade butter.
