Still sick here...

So, Here it is the next Monday and Ben still has whatever this is.  I seem to have finally come down with whatever it is also.  I just feel terrible today.  I'm not posting this blog update to complain though.  I haven't updated in quite a while and really not a lot has happened since.  We've spent several days in bed watching Cars over and over again.  We haven't done any crafts, only a little bit of coloring.  Once again the letter of the week has been put off. 

Thursday, Ben seemed really sick and worried both Shawn and I.  We took Ben to the doctor and found out he has bronchitis and the beginnings of an ear infection in one ear.  Friday, I seemed to think he was feeling much better but Saturday, after a night of hardly any sleep for any of us, we woke up to a sick boy with a fever.

Saturday, my mom and brother came out and stayed with us.  They brought Ben a balloon which made him one happy kiddo.  We went to IHop Saturday night.  The first time Ben left the house since Wednesday, which for him is a big deal.  He doesn't like to just hang out at home.  He likes adventures.  It was nice to have Mom and Andy out here.
























Sunday, Shawn's parents came out and we watched football.  It's always nice to have them out too.  It was a really nice weekend and very relaxed.  Last night, Shawn came up with the genius idea to put the movie for Ben on one of our lap tops while we watch regular TV.  I can't believe we hadn't thought of this before.  So last night, in bed, this is exactly what we did.  Poor Ben was still pretty sick last night.  He's acting better today but still is coughing and sneezing and only can be up playing for about 15 minutes before he decides he needs to come lay down.  Poor kiddo.  He still looks sick to me today too.



















Here's pictures of his setup in bed last night:




































He had everything he needed.  His movie, his stuffed frog, his cars books, and his water.

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

This year, I'm participating in Sandra's, at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom, Blogmas 2014.  If you want to join in, you can go over to her post, by clicking here , and see what it's all about.   When I was a kid, growing up, we never had fake trees.  I loved everything about them. The smell, the way they looked, and even more so, the going out as a family in the cold.  It was always a hunt whether at a tree far or a parking lot full of precut trees.  When I was younger it was the parking lot.  There was a place about a mile from our house that we would drive to.  We'd walk through tons of trees leaning against walls and fences.  My dad would hold each one up, shaking them a little bit and asking what we thought.  We all got to be involved in finding the perfect tree.  As we got older, we started going to tree farms instead of the parking lot.  We'd get a sled and a saw and walk between aisles and aisles in fields, full of gorgeou...
