Boy, have our kids had a streak of illnesses. Ethan starting throwing up on Wednesday early morning, about 1am. I ended up sleeping in Olivia's bed and Olivia took my spot upstairs. After a long day, he seemed a lot better by Wednesday late afternoon. Olivia has had a runny nose all week, and with that runny nose has come dried skin around the nose and a lot of soreness. The poor kid can't figure out how to blow her nose yet so it is all very messy. (I have done A LOT of laundry this week.)
Both kids seemed on the up swing Thursday so we went to Chuck E. Cheese's for Parker's 5th birthday party. The kids had so much fun and stayed up past their bedtime. They loved it! And, truth be told, Scott and I really liked being able to sleep in a little bit the next morning. Olivia and Ethan are such early birds, I wonder where they get that from?
Saturday we went to the YMCA downtown with a group/program from Coopersville public schools early education programs. We were in the pool the entire time! Ethan kept letting out these screams of excitement every few minutes! It was so adorable. Olivia really enjoyed seeing some of her classmates outside of school. Swimming in the winter is so much fun! Scott and I were right in the thick of it, in fact, I think if the slide was open Scott would have gone on it. The kids were exhausted and sleepy last night.
Unfortunately, they were both not feeling well, again. Ethan threw up a little bit, enough to wash the sheets, and Olivia is just plain miserable with that runny nose and chapped skin. I hope they are both well soon, everyone around here needs a full night's sleep with no interruptions.

Oh, yuck! Feel better soon! We go to the downtown Y all the time, especially on Saturdays to hit the pool. Elle and I went to an ice skating party on Saturday instead while the men of the house did some male bonding! Take care and love to see your kids growing!
