feeling sick...

Boy what a day! I feel so sick! My head aches, my body aches, my throat is so sore and swollen, and I wish I could spend the whole day in bed! Yet, there are diapers to change, lunches to make, laundry to do, a house to clean, and probably 100 answers to the question "why!" Even with how I feel today I would not change one single thing. I am so lucky to have such a great family! Sure it would be easy to dwell on how yucky I feel today, but I am trying to focus on the positive things that surround me.

My husband turns 30 this week! How crazy is that! It feels like just yesterday we were newly married. We have been married 7 years! When I look back at all that has happened in these last 7 years how can I been anything but happy.

I realized that I haven't really given any update on the kids. So here goes...

6 year old Noah Bennett- what a true joy! He started kindergarten this fall. He is such a smart kid! Learning comes so easily for him. He is growing up so quickly! He is such a helper and a great big brother. His big accomplishment has been mastering riding his bike without training wheels.

41/2 year old Zachary Allen- my little cozy bear! He remains my only child that loves to cuddle! He loves to show off and follow Noah around everywhere. He started preschool this fall as well. He learns a little different than Noah, but it has been fun to be more hands on and involved. He is always saying things that melt my heart!

2 year old Bailey Ann- miss sassy pants! What an attitude this girl has! (I have no idea where she gets it from!) She is so independent and loves to try and do what her big brothers do. This includes tackling, throwing, kicking, and trying to get away with riding her bike without a helmet. She is all girl though! It has been so fun to have tea parties and play dress up.

Hi Sweetie pie,
You need to save these experiences in the kids journals! What a wonderful stage they are in. It goes all too quickly! Bailey is very much like you were at her age. And look at how wonderful you turned out!

Misty,
I posted what we did for travis' birthday on the jordan family blog. There is a link on my blog. It was fun! I think travis felt loved. I was going for presents that made him feel young again. Restrung his guitar, yummy cologne. His parents got him stuff to organize all of his baseball cards!
