Happy New Year!

Happy 2013!  It's always fun to start a new year, with a fresh slate and new goals! 

I am contemplating my goals for the year, so I'll have to share those later.  I like to call them goals because resolutions just seem to get broken.  As long as you're working towards a goal, you are making progress, I think!  

We have been off the radar a bit because we had a round of Adenovirus run through the kids.  It basically is respiratory-bad cold, cough, runny noses, fever.  Also bloodshot eyes-which was how the pediatrician knew that's what they had.  Carson had it first and worst.   He is doing a bit better by today, but still coughing some.  He is fully active again though.  Emmy had it just one day, and that was that.  She's so tough!  She rarely is affected, if at all by sickness around here.  (knock on wood!)  Henry is still snotty and coughing.  We haven't taken him out at all, except today to go get our milk.  I finally let the twins outside yesterday because they HAD to go out.  I had kept them in a week.  It was freezing but I caved.  They weren't out too long, thank goodness. 
I feel bad for Henry because he is still sick, but he gets his helmet tomorrow.  Poor guy.  He's still happy though, and his appetite is back as of yesterday, so I hope he's on the mend. 

The helmet appointment is 1 1/2 hours long.  As of right now, I have no babysitter for the twins.  My father-in-law was going to do it, but then got sick.  We'll figure something out I guess. 

More later, Henry is up from nap, so that's my cue!  :-)  I will update on how our fitting goes tomorrow.  I'm kind of dreading the drive alone....seems to take about 1 1/2 hours to get there, because of traffic and where it's located.  Oh well, it's just a short season of life, I know.  I'll put dinner in the crockpot before we go, so I can just chill when we return.
