Quarantine

So we are basically keeping ourselves quarantined. We have all had a bout of the flu this week. Griffin had a some watery poo starting lasting Tuesday night and lasting about 4 days, and it's still not back to normal. Sophia started a vomit-fest last Thursday night and all day Friday. She is now down to just puking every evening around 10:00 - in bed. She doesn't quite get it in the bowl no matter how much we practice... I wanted to curl up and die between vomit sessions all day Friday, and then Kyle was down for the count on Saturday. We had hoped it was a 24 hour thing, but Sophia is still showing symptoms and still has a low-grade fever. And our happy little Griffin seems clingy and needy... Ugg.

Well, I better sign off. I just heard the washer finish. Vomit is not something you can let linger in the hamper. The smell will never come out!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I love Etsy!

I'm in love with Etsy.com and am finding lots of inspiration to do my own projects.

Here's a little felt flower with a button center - how simply cute!

I made it to go with this cute new sweatshirt for Sophia from, where else, Target!

Tutu Cute!

How adorable is this tutu?! I made it and it was so simple! I'm making one for all the special little girls I love.

This is the baby one!

My love affair with Target continues...

My latest finds, a cute little romper for Sophia,

And a bunch of t-shirts for Griff.

Also, lip gloss for mom, a few baby shower gifts, and a snack. I love that store!

Silly Hair Day

Sophia had silly hair day at school today. It was cute!

Nicole & Aspen's Wedding

Sophia cut a rug last Sunday at my friend Nicole's wedding. It was a lot of fun! Nicole is also my sister-in-law's little sister, so Sophia's cousins were there to party with!! Lauren and Carson got their groove on too!

Abby's First Visit

Abby had her first visit to Uncle Kyle's and Aunt Amy's last weekend!

Valentine's Treats

Sophia had a Valentine's party at preschool last Thursday. She had princess valentines and Tinkerbell valentines for all her friends. She had special valentines for her teachers. Here she is ready for school.

Here are the little valentines we made for her teachers and for our family.

These are the yummy treats we made for her teachers.

Chocolate covered strawberry marshmallows with sprinkles.

We made some extras for our own Valentine's party at home.

My Birthday

31 - YIKES!! It just sounds weird. We had a fun little party at home with the family. I was spoiled with a new laptop (among other things)!

Although I love to decorate cakes, I don't care for it that much.

Brownies and pie are actually some of my favorites, so Sophia

and I made brownies in my mini-cupcake pan for my special day this year.

Here's just a cute random pic. I love that they are playing

together a little bit now that Griffin is mobile.
And in case you've ever noticed,

pants are always optional at our house.

Most pics have at least one kid without them! ;o)

Very True

I saw this little cartoon and it is very fitting, especially the last couple weeks. Sophia was sick, and now better, but then Griffin was sick and then I was sick. Well Sophia noticed the extra attention Griffin was demanding, and then she likes to demand a little more also... And I just want to go lock the bedroom door and take a nap!

Who Are These People!?!?

I've been meaning to do this post for a while. Before Christmas we received this card from people we DO NOT know! The return address label was from Ms. Angie Gentry in Yorktown, Virginia and it was simply addressed to us as the Hussey Family.

Someone help!
