It has been forever

since I posted. I have had such good intentions but alas nothing. Let's see halloween was umm. . .interesting. Nate got sick with the flu 2 days before and was so sad to miss out on the activites at school. Halloween day he was better enough to go do a little trick-or-treating. Joel's family had planned family pictures for that day and on the drive out to go do them Cole threw up all over himself in his cute little clothes. He was so sad to not go take pictures and kept apologizing for getting his clothes dirty. Needless to Cole and I hung out at home. Luckily his very nice big brother took around a bucket for him and got lots of candy. Joel told me Zach would go up to every door and hold up his bucket and then hold up Cole's and explain that his brother was home sick. Apparently everybody was very impressed.

The next 2 weeks were spent with at least one child home sick from school. One day both Nate and Cole were home sick and Zach came home from school early with a migrane headache. I called a doctor and the eye doctor and took him in to get his eyes tested. I really did not think he had an eye problem but I thought I should get it checked out anyway. Come to find out the child is pretty much blind as a bat when it comes to seeing things close up and extremely so in his left eye which is the eye he always gets his headaches above. He has had his classes for about 3 weeks and has only had one headache. Plus he looks so stinkin cute in his glasses.

We are off to Arizona for Thanksgiving and I am so excited. I hope everyone has a great turkey day!!
