Happy Easter!

Our two little bunnies...

Our egg dying fest yesterday...

Planting seeds

I am SO anxious for spring and summer this year! Since it will be months before we can plant anything outside I decided to plant seeds in miniature green houses inside. Isaac is my constant helper, so I thought this would be a good project for us. He did great sticking in the seeds, and he loves to water them. I don't have much of a green thumb, so I hope we see something grow. Isaac checks the greenhouses everyday!

St. Patrick's Day

We had a great St. Patty's yesterday. I thought these picts of the kids sporting green are pretty funny.

What would St. Patty's be without Black and Tans courtesy of Jason?

Slainte!

Getting Better

We are getting better! Hooray! Here are pictures to demonstrate... Delia is not crying or snotty, so we must be getting better.

House of sick 3.0

Here's the update on all our illnesses...
Delia is not really getting better, but not necessarily getting worse. We are watching her closely to see if she has a secondary infection on top of the RSV. She actually seems to like the nebulizer.
Isaac has an allergic reaction to the first anti-biotics, so he's on to a second prescription, plus stuff to get rid of his allergic rash. He has perked up a bit, though, and is kind of getting back to his whiny 2 year old self. He HATES the nebulizer.
Matt does have pink eye and an upper respiratory infection, so lots of anti-biotics. And the nebulizer.
Sarah is not sick, but very, very, very, VERY tired and not very patient with her patients.
Please pray we all get better quick!

It's called ROCK BAND

I think Isaac and his friend Chris are going to start a band. I think we'll call them "The Mantles." We're in negotiations for their first album. What do you think?

House of sick on anti-biotics

We just got back from the doctor's office again... we found out Isaac has bronchitis and an ear infection and Delia has RSV. Matt is on his way to the DR. soon to check his eyes for Pink Eye (!) and find out what his nagging, hacking cough could be. Pray that we are all better soon!

House of sick

Yes, we are the house of sick. Matt, Isaac and Delia all have pretty bad colds. Thankfully no one is throwing up, just coughing up lungs. To show you how bad they all feel here is Isaac on the couch. Just lying there. Watching Jeopardy. I've never, never seen him do this-be still for longer than 30 seconds. Delia is doing the same thing- it is unnerving. My poor babies!

Cool Kids

Here we are at Baskin Robbins again. Isaac and I are cool kids in our glasses. The weather was surprisingly nice last week- no snow and lots of sunshine, hence the shades. By the way, I was informed that my favorite flavor, Chocolate Mousse Royale, has been discontinued. What are you doing to me Baskin Robbins?
