H1N1

Well it didn't make any difference for us that we all got our vacinces for the swine flu, we all ended up getting it. Craig came home after a weekend of working the night shift wiped out, weak, high fever, no appetite and a constant cough. A few days later Preston and I came down with the same syptoms. We were a family of coughers and when the night time came no one could sleep. Preston a few days ago got a double eye infection as well. He is on eye cream 3 times a day for 10 days. When I put it in his eye he freaks out every time because it makes his sight blurry for awhile. I cry right along with him!!!! I ended up with a sinus infection on top of it all as well.
As for Audrey, thankfully she got the mild end of it. She has had a slight fever, and a cough. Thankfully it never affected her sleeping.
It has been a long 3 weeks for all of us and we are still getting over everything. Appetites still aren't where they should be and I could still sleep all day.
Hope none of you get it. It will wipe you out!

Preston turns 3

On Sunday the 8Th Preston turned 3 years old. I can't believe my little blue eyed, brown hair little man is 3. On Saturday we went out to one of his favorite restaurants Burrachos for dinner with both sets of Grandparents and a friend of ours who was down visiting. We then headed to our home for cupcakes and presents. He is very into Star Wars right now so he got a lot of fun Star Wars gifts, guns, some books, a car mat that he and Audrey enjoy playing together and even a Darth Vader mask complete with outfit(which he wore out to eat).
On Sunday he had a few of his boy cousins over for pizza, Star Wars movie, popcorn, cupcakes and time outside playing Light Savers.
I am so proud of the little boy that he has become and for his tender heart.

Trick or treat

This year the kids reused their costumes. Audrey was a Sea Turtle(this was Preston's costume when he was her age), and Preston was a Cowboy again this year. We went to both Grandparents and loaded up, then Grandpa Jahn walked around their block with us and we then headed to a near by neighborhood and the kids both filled up their buckets, we ended by going into the town by our house and by that time Preston was tired of walking and didn't even care about the candy. He was cold so I gave him my jacket and he told everyone we trick or treated to that he was a freezing cold cowboy.

My little sweetie

Audrey is so fun and her talking and development has gone into high gear. She loves to look at pictures and says "who's that?". Her favorite thing to do lately is go around the house asking "what's that?", "what's this?". It is such a fun game. Her reaction to what we tell her is priceless as well, she says "mmmmmmmmm", or ohhhhhhhh, or ooooooohhhhh wow". She enjoys playing by herself but stands her ground when Preston trys to take something from her. She yells at him and has tried to bite him and pinch him. She is definetly a girl!
She loves to dress up and loves to play with her dolls. Her favorite part of her outfit is her shoes. I can't go past the shoe department in any store without at least letting the look at them and hold at least one pair.I have to sneak them back on the rack when she isn't looking.
