What a week it has been!

The last 7 days have been absolutely CRAZY! Last Tuesday, my mom becomes sick. So Wednesday - Friday, Matt and I scrambled with a plan to get the kids on the bus and head to work. Then, my mom gets worse and gets hospitalized Friday afternoon. This is the birthday weekend for Mr. C who has been looking forward to it for WEEKS! We decided to cancel shopping plans and his parents watched the kids while we visited mom that night.

Saturday was a BLUR! I had a Spelling Bee to do and then my sister picked me up and then we visited Mom, took Dad back home so he could rest and get his car, ran some errands, visited with mom some more, and then did last minute birthday shopping. I was on the go from 6:30 - 9:30pm that day! I collaspsed in bed that night!

Mr. C's party was Sunday afternoon. The majority of Matt's family could not make it due to stomach issues and my parents could not make it due to my mom being released from the hospital that afternoon. We didn't have many people but the kids had a blast! I came down with an upset stomach (from eating pizza and cupcakes....not great for my blood sugar!) and then the headache. Suddenly one of the worst sinus infections hit me Sunday evening.

Monday I was looking forward to relaxing. Well, I was sick and luckily Matt had the day off and took care of the kids and I! I then had to figure out who was getting the kids on the bus each morning of this week which became ME! My school worked around my problem and had my class covered every day until 8:55am when I could get there. I am so thankful to have understanding co-workers!

Mr. C gets sick Wednesday and has a fever. I beg my dad to take care of him and Matt takes him to the dr. to see if he has the flu (he had a vaccine). He doesn't have the flu! PTL! He is on the mend and then we get a phone call today from school saying that Cinderella threw up. Once she gets home, she is perfectly fine! Crazy!!

We are looking forward to recuperating this weekend and also secretly hoping for a snow day tomorrow since we have not had one in over a year!!
