Alan's Sick...

I hate to admit this, but I don't mind too much when my kids are sick... It means we stay home and read and watch movies and nap and eat ice cream for lunch. In my mind this is making my kids feel more comfortable when they are miserable! To George, it's encouraging/rewarding them to be sick. It's all about balance, right?

A Busy Life

Yesterday I had to schedule time to fold laundry. I hate it when decisions I've made limit future decisions I'd like to make. We're a little busy around here. Sometimes I love it. Sometimes I hate it. Mostly it's great!

George!

here's the new george... that's right bic-ed head. and he's kept it up too... except that sliver in the back that he misses every time (shhh don't tell just laugh)

10 Year Old Alan!

Alan turned 10 on the 7th! He is one amazing kid! We got to head to Lagoon as a family to celebrate... Alan is now big enough AND brave enough to go on all the roller coasters (he even hit some twice, going alone the 2nd time since no one else could gear up to go with him!) but while Benson is finally tall enough, big roller coasters hold no magic for him! George paid him to go on several, so he did experience the old white roller coaster, the mouse and tidal wave.

It's crazy to think Alan is 10! It's going by too fast!
