Sickness :(



We are at the end of a week of sick people in this house - ugh! It started with Emily last Thursday, then I felt unwell Friday and Oliver finally got it on Saturday. Jon escaped the sickness bug but still hasn't been feeling great. Poor Oliver got hit hardest though and only started feeling better yesterday afternoon. Yes, I am sick of winter and sick of sick!!! And, on top of all that, Emily finally got a couple new teeth so that probably didn't make her feel any better. I'm glad that some have come through at last though.

So, it's been a quiet couple of weeks really. A few play dates here and there and just taking it easy. It's freezing cold at the moment anyway so not really the weather to go out very far. We are approaching record snowfall for Minnesota and we are only just halfway through the season so it'll be interesting to see what the totals are once it's all melted!

Emily is now the proud holder of her US passport so I guess we can go travelling now!! Still need to sort out the UK one though which is just a little more complicated. Dual citizenship, I don't know!! We aren't actually planning any trips but it's always nice to have the necessary things should we want or need to.

Here are the latest pics and vids for you. Sorry there's not much news but you only come on here for the pictures, right??!!

Pensive..... Oh, and I wanted to get her this jacket for ages and eventually got it on clearance for about $4 - bargain!!!

Oh yeah, sibling love!!!!

Oliver giving his friend Celia a ride on the fire truck. Love :))

In da hood!

Silly billy!

So proud of his long line of cars :)

Roary PJs from Aunty Steph!

Trying out one of Daddy's hats!

The first time with a princess wand and not looking too impressed - phew!! The less princesses the better :)

Oliver having fun with his friend Matthew. Really - they were both laughing so hard it was silly!

Who, me?

Maybe they'll both have good teeth. Here's hoping!



Seriously - this is Emily's toy and Oliver LOVES it!
Oliver loves to sing "Dynamite" by Taio Cruz. This isn't his best performance as he's whispering so I will keep trying to get a better version :)
