Last week found Abbey with a case of strep throat. She woke feeling very badly on Friday morning (a no school day here!) and ended up passing out at the breakfast table. She isn't my little girl anymore! I had a hard time getting her back up off the floor. She was so worried about not feeling well because she had the last show choir contest on Saturday and since they missed their first one due to the weather she was not going to miss this one. So I made an appointment and Dana took her in. Strep, just as I thought! We squeezed 24 hours worth of antibiotics in over about 14 hours and she got up very early Saturday got herself ready and performed with a big smile on her face!! She went right to bed when they got home. Our choir got 3rd place, received the award for best band, and one of our girls received a star performer award.
The performance!
The sweet treat after!
Emma went to Sayler's birthday party on Sunday at Build A Bear. Emma had never been there and loved it. She asked me to buy her a new dress for the party and was so excited to wear it.
Emma stuffing her bear.
She looked so beautiful and she picked a pink bear and a dress that almost matched the one she had on. They all had lots of fun.

Dana has a terrible head cold and is feeling a bit rough to start this week out. He continues to really like his new job and I can tell the difference it has made in our quality of life! He is home at a nice time each night and I never hear much about what is going on. So far, Casey's has not taken over our lives as KG did. He and another dad are coaching the varsity spring baseball team and he is getting very excited about that. He has been going over to the indoor batting cage every Sunday night and throwing buckets of balls to the guys. He and Steve take turns because "we aren't as young as we once were." I haven't had to help him put deodorant on so that's a great sign!
I am ready for spring and yesterday and today are feeling a lot like it! But they are talking ice for tomorrow....so I will just live in today!! Keeping busy with daycare and updating the calendar with new schedules. Track and Spring baseball will be starting soon. Also working on tax stuff. Never a fun time as I am a terrible procrastinator! (I guess Jordan comes by it honestly!) Am looking forward to planting flowers and working on the yard. Even more than that is getting the boat back out!! Should probably find some time to do some spring cleaning too! UGH! But for now, I will enjoy the calm before the storm of new activities.
