A New Week

Well we survived the 10 days with Augmentin and both boys are finally healthy. We had a chicken pox scare this weekend with Connor and after talking to the doctor today, he either had a mild case or it was a viral reaction to the med/ virus that was in his system. They both had the vaccine at 12 months. We are hoping Peyton won't show any red bumps in the next few days. We are going to Tad's family for Easter and hope to keep on that schedule if the boys are healthy. We are anxious to see everyone again. They haven't seen the boys since Thanksgiving.

This past weekend we did some minor spring cleaning. We got our screened porch wiped down and the boys LOVE playing outside. I think we spent most of the past 2 days there. I'm not sure how the rest of the week will go. We are expecting rain the whole week and they don't seem to understand on those days why I won't open the door. We also picked up a bike trailer so Tad took the boys for their first bike ride on Sunday. They did pretty well.

Peyton is still fearful of new faces. We talked to 2 different neighbors the past couple days and he gets hysterical if either lady tries to talk to him. We're talking huge tears and labored breathing. Connor on the other hand makes friends pretty easy. He loved meeting a new dog Lenny today.

We are planning on taking the boys to an Easter Egg hunt this Saturday if weather permits. I'm not sure how much they will "hunt" eggs but I bought them these duck baskets and they have enjoyed carrying them thoughout the house. A favorite thing they do is fill it with small books or plastic pop beads and then dump it out on top of themselves. Peyton enjoys taking Connor's basket so he can walk around with one in each hand. Connor takes a minute to figure out where his basket went and then just moves on to something else. We are working on helping Peyton not take things from Connor all the time. Peyton is good at that and Connor usually is good about letting him take it, but that's not a trend we want to continue, especially playing with other children.

We are thrilled the Buckeyes won and made it to the final four. We will definitely be watching the game Saturday and are hopeful we'll see them again Monday Night. I hope to post pictures this weekend from the Egg Hunt. Have a good week!
Go Buckeyes!
