    Sick again!
    Well, 3/4 of the house has been sick again. This time around Phil seemed to escape unscathed. Thank goodness because he was a HUGE help this weekend.
    I came down with a nasty case of the stomach flu late Thursday. At first I thought it was food poisoning, but it took me a couple of days to feel better. By then both kids had a nasty cold and on Saturday night Lucas apparently caught my germ (so it wasn't food poisoning) and he has been very sick ever since. He is resting now but we have an appt. to see the doc this afternoon. He seems to have been hit harder than I was but that is probably because his immune system was already weak from his cold.
    Man... I can't seem to keep these kids well. I practice good handwashing with them and Luc wasn't even in school last week because of spring break. We think they may have caught the colds from the doctor's office at Amanda's well checkup.
    They've brought something home from the doc office the past three visits!
    Anyway, we're laying low and shooing realtors away right now and hope to get Lucas well enough for our first trip to Disneyland on Thursday.

    Amanda had her 15 month checkup yesterday and she also had her chickenpox and dpt shot:( She handled it like a champ.
    She is 32inches (90%)
    23 pounds, 14 ounces (70%)
    Doc said her eating habits are fine and she'll probably start to slow down as she nears two. We never had that issue with Luc, as he was always a poor eater. We have to take her back in a month to have her head rechecked because it grew a lot since her 1 year checkup.

    Luc is home on Spring Break and we're having fun in between work. We went to the library yesterday and today we are meeting Grandma and some cousins for lunch (it's my birthday!).

    Lucas and Amanda have been having fun looking for new houses. The past few Sundays we have gone to some open houses and the kids love checking out new places. One house (which I loved) had a cool balcony. I was outside and Luc was upstairs on the balcony yelling, "Mommy, Mommy, this is a magical house!"

    We checked out another place that had a tree house and Luc spent a bit of time going up and down and up and down. I could totally picture him exploring that place. I really hope we can find a house that fits our needs -- has enough space for my office and all the kids toys -- and also has a unique backyard that the kids can explore.

    We went to storytime this morning and Lucas had a good time. He did keep interrupting the librarian to tell her about his Veggie Tales movie. I had to keep shushing him:( We are working on his listening skills.
