Hello everyone! I thought I would take a quick moment to tell everyone how we are doing. I don't have any pictures to show anyone, as we are using a friend's computer. Our computer has a nasty virus, and we are waiting to get it fixed. My friend was very generous on letting us borrow her laptop, just so I can check email everyday. So, until that is fixed, no pictures.
Halloween was a lot of fun! Sam was a NASCAR driver, (the m&m guy) and Jack was one of the 101 Dalmatian dogs, maybe #57? :0) We went to our friend's the Enke's where we had an awesome supper, and then we went around their neighborhood and got some great candy! It was so nice out, we barely needed coats, usually you are freezing! I think even one year when I was a kid, I went trick or treating in a blizzard! So, that was a nice change, not being cold. This was Jack's first year, and he was so excited! He wasn't really sure what we were doing, but he certainly figured it out after the first house! He would run up to the house, make sure they gave him the candy in his hand, inspect it, and then once he was satisfied, he would then drop it in his bag! Then he would turn around and run yelling "daddy" running to show him what he got. It was so cute. He absolutely loved it. He didn't want to quit. Sam also of course, loves Halloween, but this year was not as fun. He was really into it at first, but as we got going, he just didn't feel well. He was running a fever, and wanted to go home. Which brings me to the next point....
Sam has been running a fever since Friday, with it running anywhere from 100-103. So, when he woke up with it again yesterday morning, I decided to take him in. I was thinking it was ear infection, since that is usually what it is. So, I was surprised when the Dr said his ears were clear. Turns out, he has tonsillitis, his throat and tonsils are inflamed. He said its all viral with the fever can run up to 10 days! Wow. So, I have him on Motrin and Tylenol. That's all we can do, but the poor kid cant go to school today, so he is really bummed out. You cant go to school unless you have been fever free for 24 hours. Still has one. I hope this goes away soon! Jack has a cold, with a bad cough, but its OK.
My beautiful niece Parker is getting bigger by the minute! I wish I could post pics of her, but I will once I am able. I cannot wait to see her on Thanksgiving! This is what I hate about not living close to them, we cant see each other very often, but I think someday we will.
Sam has Fall Parent days this Wednesday, which means that I get to go and spend the whole day with Sam at school to learn about what he has been doing, and how he is progressing, so I am looking forward to that. I will let everyone know how that goes!
We get the dreaded flu shots this week also, even though Joe and I have had the stomach flu this year, hopefully we can avoid any other strains for a long time! Do not want a repeat of that!
I hope everyone is having a great fall, keep us updated on how you are doing!
