we've had the flu circulating through our house this week and last, which is always amazing.
it finally hit me, which was bound to happen sooner or later...but didn't the flu get the memo that moms can't be sick?
we don't get sick days, which is unfortunate and slightly unfair.
i'm about to go on strike.

moving on...random.org drew a winner for our flourish giveaway.

DeleteIt makes me so happy that the blanket I made her is her favorite. Just so happy!!! So sorry the flu hit ya'll. Last Christmas a horrible stomach virus hit our family and put one of my kiddos in the hospital for four days. Not a fan of viruses, not a fan at all. Sending you healing thoughts and prayers. :)

TGIF....Tamie
Happy Friday :-) Beautiful pictures :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures. My office is currently passing everything around. I hope I don’t get it. (we have both strep and the flu going around, along with a stomach thing…there is only 6 of us who work here…)I looked back a few days at all those who commented for the giveaway and clicked on a few blogs of those who entered. I suddenly felt guilty for entering, so many women seemed to (for lack of better words) need it, deserve it, more than me. I'm so happy Coey won, as I read through her blog; I just felt the need for her to go. I just had to share that. She is the perfect pick :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the old lady with the shawl pic. The missing tooth comment made me laugh right out! And I can't believe those caged animals didn't get into those perfectly inviting piles of folded clothes. PS Sorry I didn't text back, but I got you down for my blog. The privite thing goes back to the snarkies. Have never felt free to be myself since then. Hoping this will get me blogging again more often.
ReplyDeleteWe all survived a cycle of the stomach flu that is making it's way around Korea. Nothing like cleaning vomit for a week straight :/ Glad yall are feeling better! I love the pictures, as always :)
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why do babies love to play with tissue paper. My son does that too.

Love love love that sailor outfit!!! Cutest sailor baby, ever!
ReplyDeleteLove that picture of them painting their fingernails! I have tried to paint my daughters toes and it went pretty good but haven't tried the fingernails yet! Thanks for the little glimpse into your life! ;)
ReplyDeleteLaundry day scares me. ;) em
ReplyDeleteall adorable Emily- happy New Year sweetheart.. :)
ReplyDeleteThat picture at the KU game is eerily similar to one I just posted. My hubby and our oldest son where at the game Sunday, January 6 in nearly that same area. Is that the game you were at too? Rock chalk!
ReplyDeleteSo many thoughts in my brain right now- all that laundry! I will never complain about my laundry for 3 kids again. Never. Ok, that's probably not true. Superhero sisters? Too adorable. As is sailor baby. And baby Jesus taking down the toilet paper roll! hahaha! And lastly, why do kids love to play like they're orphans? Mine always do this too!
ReplyDeleteSO glad to hear you are having two more retreats this year... Can't wait to hear dates! I REALLY wanted to attend this one but alas, the details didn't come together... I'm SO HOPEFUL that I can attend one of the next two. Thanks so much for doing those retreats!!! I feel refreshed just thinking about it ;) -Mae
