I know God has a plan!

I lost a friend, Jami, to breast cancer Sunday night. I am sad....but I know that she is wrapped up in the loving arms of our Savior, so I have peace. I am hugging my kids extra tight and I am looking forward to seeing my friend again. Please keep her family in your prayers.

Geez, Louise!!!!!

Welp, obviously I haven't been blogging like I promised. I am sure I have missed many opportunities to entertain everyone as my children are constant laughter fodder. Well, not exactly true. Yesterday was filled with TEARS instead of GIGGLES....

Flu shots. Ouch. Evan was freaking out beforehand, so I let him decide what he would rather do:

Choice A: Get a flu shot. Hurts like crazy for a smidge of a nano second-then it's over.



or Choice B: Risk getting the flu and ending up hospitalized with an IV-which hurts worse and for a while!


He chose to get it.

Gus went first. He did great! Only cried for a second and stopped as soon as I showed him his spiderman bandaid.

Evan was a totally different story! He usually does fine but yesterday he went bonkers! I was holding him in my lap and two nurses were holding his arms down at his side. It was terrible! Then outta nowhere-you hear Gus screaming,"Don't hurt MINE BUBBY!" I look down and he is punching the nurses thighs and knees!!!! HAHAH!!!!! What made it even funnier was that his arm was so sore from the shot that each time he landed a punch he would look down and yelp!

I know it shouldn't have amused me, but hey-I'd worked the entire night before and I was a little slap happy....





No worries. They made it through and by the time we got home, the only issue was Gus continuing to press down on the injection site and crying because it hurt!
