There's nothing like waking up to a cute little boy, having him cuddle up next to you while you watch tv and try to wake up, and then having him throw up all over you...oh, wait...I can think of at least ten things that are better than that. Especially since we all know how I feel about puke. However, I can say that having someone puke all over you wakes you up much faster than a cup of coffee (See? eternal optimist. That's me. Always looking on the bright side).
Why am I talking about this? Because we're all sick here (well all except for Joel...of course. I'm pretty sure he's a super hero in disguise: never gets sick...is so incredibly tired when he gets home. You'd be tired too if you were out flying around and stopping trains). And we're in hell, er...I mean "Arizona". You can't do anything here. We've been trapped inside for only a couple of days now and we're already getting some serious cabin fever. You see, in he-Arizona, you don't open the blinds, you don't turn on the lights and if you're husband is anything like mine, he leaves the AC set at 81 degrees. In our last house he had curtains, blinds, styrofoam and sunscreens on our windows-a hot dark, yucky cave with two stir crazy children makes for one insane mother (especially since I neeeed the sunlight).
I had planned on doing tons of fun things this summer, but because the kids are sick I can't do any of them or even any of the normal summer activities: play place, splash pad, friend's house... I am not going to be the mom who gets everybody else's kids sick!! I am cursing that mom right now because she is the person that got me and my kids sick.
So, I'm going to have to find some fun things to do here, like:
make slime
build forts
have dance parties
Watch movies and eat popcorn
make cupcakes
or...I could just sleep and let the kids run a muck...

New Home!
Oops! I just realized that, while people have asked, I haven't said anything about MOVING! It's not a huge deal, seeing as we only moved about 7 minuted north west. I don't have any after pictures because well...we're still working on the afters, but here are a few pics from the listing.
