We are finally recovering from the Pig Flu

I am sooo dang tired of one of us having it I could scream.

Houston has a couple more days of meds...but has about a week under his belt.

I apparently, am having an allergic reaction to something.

I look all hivey and swollen. Which if you know me because of my immune issues and illnesses isn't that strange but it's different than normal and I can always tell it's a reaction because my throat swells.

Fun times!

We are going a little stir crazy but otherwise hanging in there!

Not much to report because all we have done is play games, read, watch movies and mommy browses the net while the little germ incubator sleeps.

I was supposed to go see my dad get inducted into a hall of fame but because of my reaction and Houston the germ machine I couldn't :( Makes me sad.

I hope they took lots of pictures.

Speaking of pictures I wish it would warm up and we would get well so I could practice with my camera more....I can dream right?

I know nothing interesting to report....this blog is so boring. But hey it makes great reading material if you need to get sleepy ;)

Houston slays me....

Some jewels from today....just so I remember.

He told me ...."Mommy do you know sea turtles lay eggs"

I told him yes.

He then said " They just go flying out their butts " :O

Not quite son, not quite.

He has also given us the whole low down on Dino's which they are learning about at school.

He has a few of the details wrong. But it is cute none the less.

He tells us he is going to be a "Paydeyacktology" which is Paleontologist ;)

He can also type words on the computer. They are also learning to read on the computer in preschool. All I can say is we need really go parental locks on the computer...he makes some mistakes that could end bad :P

My son already needs to shave ;)

Not realizing mommy is watching







This is what happens when you live a little boy in a room with a dry erase marker writing his letters while you take dinner out of the oven.

He said it was no biggie because it would erase off...duh??!

We love our Wii

We aren't big video game people...we have an Xbox 360 that has been played like twice. We use it for Netflix..which we <3...nothing compares ;)

Anyway, we decided to get Houston a Wii this year, and he loves it. We do too :) We resisted for quite a while but I am glad we got him one :)

It is a gift we can all enjoy. We put it in the study/office so we could play with it as a family but so we could also make sure Houston was only on it when we were supervising him :)

So far mommy likes bowling, daddy likes baseball and Houston likes Mario Kart :)

I got the Wii Fit Plus that Jeremy got me that I am dying to try out though I dread seeing my weight up there on the screen...yuck...hiss...boo.

Another wonderful gift I got is my mom got me a player than plays British DVD's and what can I say it was love at first site.

I have so many little doodads to play with this year, it makes being sick for the 900th time a wee bit easier. At least, I have plenty to do :)

So what where some of your favorite gifts this year...?? What was a hit for your kiddos???And more importantly what was a miss???

"Run Run as fast as you can"

Houston and I had lots of fun today decorating ginerbread men :)

My little prisoner ;)

I love this little boy, even if he does make me want to run away and join the circus some days...He is a great little dude. Lucky to have him :)
