Germies Again

Well, folks, somehow we caught the flu bug again. This time it started with a bad cough and ended in throwing up. It has been exhausting, but we are hoping that we are coming to the end of it. Alex has been sick the longest and the hardest, since 5am Saturday morning. Ryan has had it pretty bad too, and Sam just a touch. Praise the Lord I have not felt even the slightest bit ill--somebody has to hold down the fort around here! If you think of us, we could use a little more prayer that this would pass quickly and all would be feeling well again!

So there's been a lot of sleeping (forgive the ugly couches--the covers are in the wash--you can guess why!).

and resting...

and resting...

and chillin' on the couch...

or anywhere else that feels comfy!

Itty Bitty Soccer--Spring Season

Here's a pic Ryan took on his phone tonight of Alex at soccer practice. He was so excited about his new soccer shirt and his shin guards and had a really fun time at the practice. Looks like he has a better chance of actually kicking the ball during a game this year as he had a great practice tonight!! More pics to come later!

Our New (to us) Family Hauler!

We are so excited to be the owners of this 2007 Chevy Uplander. Considering our old paint-chipped Lumina that we drove (and it served us well) for over 8 years, you know what a step up this is for us! We needed a minivan for our growing family, and God has provided again!
We like that this van has more of an SUV look to it. (and I love the color)

It's nice to be so high up, too!

This is the view I will have as I reach back to break up fights and pick up thrown sippy cups!

Alex knows that when baby comes his seat will be moved to the back row "where big boys sit" so he wanted his picture taken back there!

The front dash. I finally have a CD player. Welcome to the modern world, I guess!

Yep, we're family haulin' now!
