Fingers crossed you don’t get it bethkate . N has given us the stomach bug like 3 times after having it. Glad she seems to be on the mend. I’m hoping! My stomach was actually a bit funky all week and i didn’t feel great yesterday, but I seem to be ok this morning. I hope it doesn’t hit me the way it did poor E.

I stopped doing things for TAW once my kids hit middle school since they have like 8 teachers each at that point. I didnt know it was somewhat expected after elementary. If so... I'm a horrible parent lol It's not. You're a good parent. But I see how much it's talked about at elementary and DC and preschool level and it truly boggles my mind. I'll enjoy whatever treats we get next week. when you become my kid's teacher I will make an exception give you all the treats next year 😉

Thanks for all the birthday wishes for ds1 everyone 🥰 we spent most of the day getting ready for his party tomorrow. I also had a phone interview for a new job. I applied on a whim and was going into the phone call with a “whatever” attitude but that quickly changed when they said the starting salary would be 30k more than I make now 😮 The company is also well known for being very family friendly and they have amazing benefits. So of course now I really want it. Oh and the gig itself seems like it’ll be pretty sweet. I’ll find out more next week. I will cross everything for you! 🤞🤞🤞

Ds3 was up at 6am needing to poop. So it's going to be a very long day. I'm meeting my friend and her kids at a truck and car event at the park this morning. H has a charter all day so I'm hoping ds1 will wake up and come with me to help but waking him up is a chore in and of itself

She’s been up over two hours now and still no throwing up. She was starving, so she ended up eating a scrambled egg and 3 crackers. So far, so good. I’m not convinced that it’s over yet, but she’s in MUCH better shape than last night. I had never seen anyone that violently ill before. Poor kid.

It's a part time nontenure track position so I never finished the application. Super bummed about it.

Happy weekend everyone! Hope you are all enjoying nice weather. Jojo was doing better today, her cold is improving and her teeth seem to be bugging her slightly less. We didn't accomplish much today, but did a lot of visiting with various family and friends! She got to experience her first bouncy castle and ball pit, but her favourite thing was the paw patrol power wheels 4 wheel bike thingee. It was perfect timing because she's really been into buttons lately, or as she calls them, BUTTS. I posted a pic on IG.

Sitting in the Des Moines airport waiting to board. Fingers crossed our girls do as well on the flight home as they did on the flight here. We had a good trip but I'm exhausted and ready to get home.

bethkate I hope DD is doing better! I hope everyone had a good weekend! We are back at the ILs. We had a great time at my cousin’s wedding and spending time with family. We ate some delicious food and did some touristy things that we haven’t done in a while. And I slept in this morning. 🙌 We fly back late tomorrow morning, so I expect another sleepy flight for C. FX!

E slept a lot more than usual yesterday, but otherwise, she seemed like she was feeling fine. H and I, on the other hand, were in rough shape. He starting throwing up around 1am, and then I did around 10. We were both mostly incapacitated on the couch all day while E kept herself occupied. It was awful. I’m staying home from work today to make sure I’m fully recovered and to clean my whole house with bleach.

Oh no, bethkate! Hope you guys are doing better. quinn - the steroids were magical and I am finally feeling better. Thanks for asking! How are you doing? Had an OK weekend - N took like a 2 hour nap on Saturday, which he almost never does at home, so that was amazing. I wish I could say I was productive during that time, but I basically ate lunch and half-napped myself lol. Sunday it was pouring so we bowed out of attending the MS Walk. I got out for a bit to see a show for our theatre awards. N was pretty grouchy when he woke up from his nap, according to H. I think he was bummed he couldn't go outside.

So sorry you guys caught the bug bethkate. Hopefully you're feeling better today Glad to hear the steroids helped cakewench! The doc tried that on my allergy induced bronchitis last year and I had an allergic reaction. No prednisone for me. But my mixture of allegra, flonase, and multivitamins seems to be working so far 🤞
