I just checked the mail and Garrett is going to be super excited when he wakes up tomorrow! His invitations are in from Winkflash and they look great! I did learn that my monitor is not calibrated but I fiddled with it and it looks much better. Now I wonder about all my layouts and if the colors are a little wonky or not. Oh well! It will just add character.



Yesterday was a terrific Thursday! I took the boys to preschool and tried to get their pictures taken. Garrett cooperated and gave a great smile but Lance wanted nothing to do with it. Yes, he has hit THAT age. I will have to try again some other time. But after that Mom came over and we did a little girl shopping. The first time in 4 years! It was nice! She went with me to pick up the boys and they were excited to see her and Garrett told her all about his day. Lance was cranky and his teachers even mentioned that he was not himself. So we go on home and Lance is still cranky. Sugie left and I put in a movie for them. They were sitting on the floor when I went into my room to look at my new goodies and I hear Garrett say "Oh no! It's not working!" And I thought he meant the DVD messed up. So I turned it all off and sent them to the playroom. BUT later I tried the watch the news and the TV was not working at all!!! I left it alone for Billy to figure out. It turns out that Lance dumped water on/in the TV and screwed it up. (A little background- this is our 3rd TV in a year) It is halfway working today and hopefully it will be back to normal tomorrow. For now we moved the little 13 inch TV into the living room but I have to squint to see it.

And then Lance started acting worse. He was hacking and not eating and crying. This had been getting progressively worse since Wednesday. So I filled him up with Motrin and he slept most of the night. But this morning he would not eat or drink- and this boy loves his ju-ju. I called and got an appointment. This meant I would miss MOPS. So we scrambles around and got dressed and went up to the church and I ran around getting all my Moppetts stuff set up and speed out of there and to the doctor. Good thing I did because it looks like Lance has strep throat! We will get the results Monday but the doctor was pretty sure. Poor baby! Garrett and I have never had strep and Billy is sleeping so I can't ask him. I know some people are more susceptible to getting it and I am sad that Lance is one of them. Oh- and while we were there they got in their shipment of the flu shot for ages 3 and up so Garrett got a shot. He was not happy! But he was very brave and only cried for a minute. He was more interested in knowing what Band-Aid he was getting. And all that wore me out. But I still had to go to Target and get Lancer's medicine. So it has been a long day!


And it should be a great weekend for us. But I will leave that for next time- gotta save something for the next post! Have a wonderful weekend!

(I never thought I would see this day- SHARING!!!)
