Well, what a past week and a half!
Christy and I traveled to St. Louis to visit our cousin, Michelle! It was fun...we did a lot of cooking, chatting, and hanging out! It was fun! The boys stayed with my parents and when Bob was off of work he came and got them. They missed their mama as I missed them but it was nice to have a mini-break!
When I got home Bob still had the rest of the week off and we did a lot of veggin out. It was good quality family time. The boys played outside on Thursday and Friday and then it snowed like CRAZY on Saturday??? Random! So we have been stuck inside and the boys are already getting stir crazy after getting the taste of fresh air just for a bit! But it is melting really fast so hopefully it will be ALL gone by end of week and back to the 60's!! I bought steaks to grill and I can't grill til the snow is GONE! Come on warmer spring weather! I miss my grill!
Onto official business, we have completed our living wills and all is prepped and legal. The papers were all signed on Friday. It seems weird to have to do that but I guess that is what you do when you grow up and are forced to become responsible. *sigh* Depressing but necessary and I am really glad we did it...for the boys and for each other.
The boys are still fighting a cold! It seems to linger! Decovin started in with a fever and cough and runny nose and all the drainage caused some throwing up of phlegm, etc...he is still coughing somewhat and this has been lasting for over a week now, I think. Camden started in 4 or 5 days ago with same symptoms...poor lil' guys...but they are both on the mend and acting mostly "normal" aside from cough that won't go away and the runny nose that never stops! Camden's little nose is so raw! *ouch*
Bob and I are steering clear so far! I really do believe that exercising regularly has kept me "healthy" and free from most of the boys' illnesses...*knocking on wood*
Anyway...not much else is happening...we are on the countdown for Hawaii...1 month and 1 week away from take off! I'm getting really excited and can't wait! :-)
Look forward to all your new blogs! Keep 'em coming!! :-)

Just a thought cuz we had a problem with it before--set up a special power of attorney for whoever is watching the kids for you while you are gone. If they get sick and need a doctor, they can't be seen unless the legal guardian is present or unless the babysitter has power of attorney to consent to care.
Thanks Stacy! I contacted the lawyer to see about that! :-)
all you need is a signed and notorized consent from the parent. We have them on both nieces and nephew. Just state who has permission to have them treated. They are good for a year. That is something we keep updated within the family, you never know where you might be and need to seek medical attention.
