Already February! Where did January go?

We joined the ranks of the "flu crew" these past couple of weeks.

Jennai had the flu, not the puking flu, 

just the respiratory, fever, etc. flu.

Poor thing.  She was a trouper, though, and kept plugging along.

We thought the rest of us had dodged the bullet.  

Then last Saturday Guille started coughing a bit.  By Sunday morning

he was coughing enough we kept him home from church.  

Sunday through the night his cough got worse.

Monday, first thing, I took him to the doctor and they

gave him a nebulizer treatment and an injection.  The doctor said 

that if he wasn't feeling better in 2 hours they would admit him to

the hospital!  YIKES!  Well, the shot helped, so no hospital.

He reacted to the pills he was supposed to take and ended up getting

a second shot on Tuesday and another on Friday.  

ENOUGH ALREADY!

Today he was feeling pretty good

with very little coughing!

Thank you, Jesus!

So far, Isaac is staying well.  We're praying it stays that way.

We did manage to get a few pictures taken over the past weeks.

Here are a few for you to enjoy.

 Isaac has moved up to Legos and 

Guille is happy to share with him.

The two have spent hours building together.

 Super kids on the look out!

 With super heroes like this

what do we have to fear? 

Oh, what fun it is to.... vacuum!?

Remember when they used to put prizes in cereal boxes?

Look what came in MY cereal box!

Ya don't get treats like that in cereal boxes these days!

 Have hat and mittens... ready to go!

And yep, I'm cute! 

 Oh dear!  A mitten fell off!

 Isaac has been working on the "cute pose"

and Jennai has been trying to teach him how to do it.

 Like this??

Oh, dear, this is harder than I expected.

Hmmf.  

 One more try!  I think I've got it!

 Yep, I'm pretty cute, too!

Our church has a Winter Carnival for the kids.

They get to play games, jump in the bouncy house,

win prizes, eat cotton candy, popcorn, 

snow cones, cupcakes, nachos...

(hmmm, fill 'em up with sugar and send 'em home!)

Elizabeth got to join us and we all had a good time 

of fun and fellowship

on a cold and snowy evening.

 Cotton candy!  Yum!

Actually, Isaac wasn't too sure about it.

He had a little bit then passed it off to the rest of us.

 Jennai wasn't too sure about it either... but I enjoyed it!

 Isaac got one of the rings on the snowman.

Jennai decided she would just wear the ring 

as a bracelet instead of throwing it.

 Guille got a strike in penguin pin bowling.

That's our update for now.  

Stay cool... but stay warm!

 See ya later!
