Virus Paranoia!
Man, I might post more often if my computer is this fast. Yay to fast blog posts! So I came down with some crappy bug this weekend. I seriously thought I was going to die (whimpy I know)! Who knows what it was, but it made me slightly (er, completely) paranoid. Marcos took today off work since the Comcast people would be coming to install everything and that can get pretty crazy with kids running everywhere. So...he was my brave little knight in shining armor this morning. I always feel like we will be fine if we catch all the crap going around, but this thing seriously kicked my butt so I decided we needed to get vaccines. Marcos was nice enough to go stand in line for us. He left at 6 a.m. and called me at 7 a.m. to tell me he was freezing but he was about 100th in line. Yay Marcos! I went and got him some hot chocolate and breakfast and then went back since I had to take my turn driving carpool to school...but I kept Dylan. Thankfully it didn't take too long so Marcos just checked him in a little late for school. And Dylan was brave (not that it's scary but whatever...sometimes bribes are necessary) so I promised him I would buy Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. I have to say I was going to post about this anyway, but Marcos informed me my next post had to be all about what a nice husband he was to go freeze so that my precious little babies could get H1N1 vaccines. BUT...the funny part came later. He was on a role and wanted to continue to be a helpful husband so he told me he would go pick Dylan up from school. Okay, we talk about this ALL the time, but apparently I should have given detailed instructions. I got a call from Courtney (Kambrie's mom) laughing as she told the story. Another neighbor was at the school picking up her daughter. She knows Courtney and I switch off picking up the kids from school and realized Marcos must not know he was supposed to pick up Kambrie too when he left with just Dylan. How embarrassing! The amazing part is that Dylan didn't think anything of it. He didn't say a word! Hello kid, are you not used to waiting for her every single day? He told me he was just too excited about Ice Age so he forgot. Anyway, vaccines, leaving children at school, Ice Age and Comcast made for a very full and crazy day! But thanks to my wonderful husband who stood in line so I didn't have to. What would I do without you! :)

Sorry you've been sick! I love your new hair, though! Way cute.
I hate being sick! I feel your pain. I had a virus last week while Joel was here thankfully and he saved my life! I have a similar story that Joel went to pick up gianluca from school, didn't see him there, so he just came home! When he walked in the door I got a call from the school saying that Gianluca was in the office because no one picked him up! Seriously Joel! You didn't check the school??? What will we do with these guys! At least Marcos didn't know he had to get Kambrie.
Anyways,I like your brown hair!
Your hair is darling. And you are a great mom. I heard from Dr. Laura that until your kids are all in school, your house will be a toybox, and it's ok. I think of this everyday and it makes me feel better. Kids need to play and make messes!
I'm jealous you got your shots - we've been trying for a month now, and our pediatrican doesn't have them yet! What a great husband!!
