Yeah I am real sorry about that. I did think about giving up on it for awhile there but don't worry I decided to come back. I have been so busy and it doesn't help that my computer is super slow so it really doesn't make me want to even get on the dang thing! Where do I even start...I guess where I left off last. We went to Reno for Christmas for two weeks, came home for about a week and then I went back to Reno while Ben was in California for 4 weeks. Right when I got there, I got sick along with Aidan and Ethan. Ethan also got pink eye, he eventually gave it to Aidan who eventually gave it to me! This illness of ours lasted for about a week and a half. Came back home after a month of being in Reno, was only home for a few days only to have Aidan get sick with vomiting and diarrhea. Honestly I have never been thrown up on so many times before! It's the worst when they are that little and don't understand the concept of using a bucket or let alone the toilet! Luckily it didn't last too long because then I left to my aunt and uncles house to watch their 5 kids for a week and a half. That actually went better than expected and everyone had a lot of fun! It was fun to see what it would be like to take care of 7 kids ages 16 to 8 months. It really did make me look forward to that time of my life. Sadly enough and not to my surprise Aidan got croup really bad while we were there. Honestly I feel like Aidan has been sick so much this year and we are only in March! That is the second time he has gotten croup. It came on so suddenly that it really scared me. That croup turned into a really bad viral infection which eventually gave him two ear infections. And for those of you who have at least two kids know that when one gets sick the other one usually follows. Ethan is now sick with the same viral infection. I feel so bad because when they are that little there is nothing you can do for them. He has lost his voice so when he crys you can't hardly hear him. Seriously it has been a whirlwind around here. Things are finally settling down except for Ben who goes to work before anyone gets up and gets home after the boys are already in bed! These are sad days for us but at least we know there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Busy season will be over at the end of May. I will be traveling back out to Reno in two weeks for about a week to celebrate my uncles 50th birthday. Then things will really be back to normal. Don't worry I will work on updating you with lots of pictures tomorrow! Until then...good night!
