Just 2 more days until we head to Salt Lake for Trent's helmet. It really feels like we were just there... but I had better get used to it since we'll be going every 2 weeks (and again next week) But, hopefully, that'll make the whole process go faster and it'll be over before we know it. He was SO happy to get a new toy from Nana last night! Actually, I thought he looked sort of evil in this picture :)
We have all been fighting sickness since Sunday and are just now feeling better today. I started it with a cold, high fever, body aches etc. on Sunday. Then, passed it along to everyone else (because sharing is the right thing to do, eh?) I was actually pretty miserable and don't remember having that high of a fever in a long time. I was happy when Casey arrived home from work Sunday evening and was able to help me with the kids. Then, he was sick (although not as bad) on Monday and we both sort of "gimped" around taking care of the kids. It was actually kind of pathetic! Thankfully, Trent and Katie just had runny noses and, we were able to keep Tys' cold and fever under control with medicine. The good thing was we were able to get caught up on watching a few movies. There are MANY new movies that I haven't seen yet but, just don't have the time to sit for 2 hours. Unless, the kids are in bed and then, I just fall asleep! And, we hardly ever go to the movies anymore for 2 reasons: 1. the nearest theater is 50 miles away and 2. my husband cringes and begins twitching at the very thought of spending $8.50 a piece on movie tickets! lol Anyhow, we watched Taken (after the kids went to bed) Nights at Rodanthe and Night at the Museum (I know, the second movie is already out and I hadn't even seen the first one yet!) So, that's been our week thus far. I now have a lot to do in the next two days before going to Salt Lake.....

I'll be praying the trip/appointment go well. I'm glad you guys are getting over sickness how awful! If it makes you feel any better, I don't have any kids and I don't have time to watch movies either. The movie theatre is a lot closer to me, but I hardly go... I just went to see UP in digital 3D (which is so great by the way, for kids and adults), and I payed 9.25. Gross.
