Other than pictures of Christmas (which I still need to blog), we don't have many recent pictures to share because my camera was MIA. How it got lost under Bud's bed is beyond me!! Although, you would have thought I'd would have looked there first with everything he keeps putting under there. Wonder when he'll learn I'm always going to look under there when I tell him to clean his room?!? Oh, well.
What a strange winter this has been so far. I can't really put my thumb on why exactly. Just seems to be out of the ordinary for us. We can't seem to find a rythmn or routine. We ended last year and started the new one with six weeks of sickness -- passing various things around from coughs and colds to fevers and chills. I cannot express how thankful I am that we are passed that -- praying we've paid our dues in that department and will remain healthy the rest of the winter season with all these nasty germs floating around!
Princess Butterfly seemed to endure the worst physically speaking. She became dehydrated when she was attacked by a stomach bug. We finally nursed her back to health after a few days of bed rest, so thankful she made it through without any major issues! The thing is about that girl . . . you have to watch her constantly to make sure she's drinking enough. It's nothing for her to go a whole day and only have a small glass of something. I had a harsh reminder when she passed out in my arms one morning. Needless to say, we now have a chart in the kitchen where she marks how many cups of fluid she drinks each day. A reminder for both of us. Maybe someday it will become a habit for her to drink an acceptable amount. For now, I'll look at pictures like this and smile at how cute she is walking around with her little cup, sippin' away!
As for the normality of our lives and more pictures . . . I need to get crackin'!
