What a weekend

I am not sure what my deal is lately. I think I am funky from being sick all Memorial Day weekend. The weather was beautiful and we had plans of finally dejunking our Living Room and Dining Room. Then Friday morning Lauren comes in to tell us that Joseph is throwing up "again". Poor baby had already thrown up once and sis helped get him cleaned up and back to bed without disturbing Mom and Dad. So, he stayed home from school and missed his picnic with Mrs. Lee for turning in all his STAR reader's this year. He slept on and off most of the day. Then Saturday was feeling a little better, but still threw up a little. He went to T-ball practice in the evening and we grabbed McD's on the way home. Later that night I got sick and around the same time John Michael threw up all over the bathroom. John had to clean it up. I couldn't deal with it. Sunday JM was feeling better but Joe and I were still down for the count. I cancelled the plans to go eat dinner at my parents house that evening. Monday we all felt better, but not 100%. We cancelled plans to eat and swim at John's parents house.

We got nothing accomplished at the house. I wanted to have flowers planted and the rooms cleaned up, but I couldn't even keep up with dishes and laundry. I sent Joe back to school on Tuesday. He seemed to be fine. Then early Wednesday morning he threw up again! What is the deal? So he stayed home from school on Wednesday, missing his first Field Day and a friend's birthday party. I took him to the doctor's but, as I suspected, there wasn't much they could do about it. John had to take John Michael to his appointment down at Children's Mercy for his warts. So, everyone is back at school today and we will see how that goes. Tomorrow is the last day and a half day.

Next Monday starts our summer routine of camps, workouts and hopefully, some fun. Our summer calendar looks as busy as our school year calendar. Every day almost has something on it. I am still hopeful that my parents will make good on their offer to take us to Branson in July. I just hope it fits in between the summer camps that the kids are signed up for. I miss lazy, sleeping in summer. But they are all doing things that they love so I am sure it is good for them.
