Trip to Ohio

Well...our trip to Ohio was interesting to say the least. Mike and I had to wake to kids up at 5:30 to catch our flight at 7:45am on June 22nd. Woke Drew up and after a few minuets he said he had to "spit up." Which means throw up. So as we ran out the door, I grabbed a bucket...luckily. Drew threw up 2 times on the way to the airport and 4-5 times on the plan ride to Ohio.

My friend, Tara, picked us up, Drew threw up one last time as we were getting into her car..around 4pm. By the time we got to their house, Drew had taken a nap and was feeling better. He and Keegan played for a couple hours that night.

On Tuesday, we went to CCN's pool and had a fabulous day of swimming and fun. Tuesday night, Keegan woke up throwing up. Wednesday morning, I took Drew, Kyra, and Kenna out to the splash pad. Hoping that the flu would not spread.

Mike fly into Ohio on Wednesday nite...thankfully. Drew woke up throwing up..again plus the other end too. By this time, Keegan was feeling better...so far. Mike and I decided to get a hotel room to clear the air of this HORRIBLE flu.

So Thursday, Tara took the kids and I to a hotel...thankfully. That night, Tara and Kenna got sick. This was the most deadliest flu ever. Friday we hooked back up with Keegan and his dad Chad at a pool, and Saturday we all got to enjoy each other.

Mike was flying out Sunday afternoon, so he brought the kids and I over to Chad and Tara's house. We flew to MN on Monday. We enjoyed the time we did get to spend with the Harlow's, but we wish that the flu hadn't followed us there.

Drew's Swim Lessons

Before we left, Drew had swim lesson the second and third week in June. The weather did not cooperate with us. It rain and was cold every day but two. It made it really hard to keep Drew in the water.

Drew did a great job. He is in level 1. There was 5 other kids in his class. Drew and another little boy were the youngest. Drew learned how to use his "ice cream scoops", his windmill strokes, and practiced kicking all at the same time. It was really fun to watch him learn.

Hello ~ We are still here!

Sorry it's been so long. The kids and I have been out of state for the last month. We've been visiting friends in Ohio and spending lots of time with family in Minnesota. But before we left, the kids and I help celebrate Josh's first birthday!

The whole clan!

Good Time Shav'in

Drew and Kyra LOVE taking baths. Some night, they would stay in the bath over an hour if I let them. A couple nights ago, they decided they were going to shave.


The shaving cream is applied.

Time to shave.

Be careful.

Not too close to your eyes!


Almost done.
