friday and saturday

on thursday night frankie started saying she had a headache. we put her to bed as usual, but by friday morning she was still complaining.

frankie doesn't get sick, so i decided to clear my day and cuddle with her.

we watched movies, and movies, and movies, and cuddled, and cuddled, and cuddled.

she threw up, felt hot, and still had a headache and sore throat, so i decided to take her to the dr to rule out strep, which is going around.

thankfully it's not strep! and even more thankfully she woke up feeling better. yay!

we like white trash babies up in here. especially ones that give dirty looks.

also on friday: chris took pictures for the yearbook at the field hockey game. alexis went to practice. we rented admission and l, c, and g watched with me (matt went to bed early because it's a navy weekend). it was so cute!

today alexis went to work at 10, when grandpa, the little girls and i headed over to abby's birthday party.

everyone had a fun time playing and didn't want to leave.

but we had to leave because we had another birthday party to get to! neighbor charlie celebrated his 5th with a delicious chocolate filled pinata.

frankie and delaney both fell asleep in the car, and since it was cool outside i let them stay, but they only stayed asleep for about half an hour and then they were cranky! like, other than addie, they wouldn't play by themselves and it was a little challenging on my own.

that party ended at 3, we came home and counted our loot and hit the bath.

i had planned on dressing them up in their cute cheerleader uniforms and taking them to the game so matt could wind down and finish his homework in peace (after working 6 days straight), but given our recent bout of illness, busy day, and lack of naps, i thought better of it. so we took early baths, got into our jams and had some cuddle time.

it's really hard to take a good picture of all three.

laney did some light reading. addie looked at this book and said "is that dr. phil?" oh yes, sweet girl! you know it!

we had subs for dinner. matt walked in as we were finishing up, i explained to him our new plan, kissed goodbye and it was off to the varsity football game where... we won!!!! it was a super fun game! it was tied and then l-town kicked a 41 yard field goal! and then, as the clock ran out, they intercepted and ran like 60 yards to score another touchdown! 28-18 baby! it would be soooo fun to have a winning season! we've won a scrimmage and our first game, don't call it a comeback!

 

i somehow left for the game without my phone, so no game pics. which is unfortunate because i wanted to do a fb, then blog series on friday night lights. like game #1 - and pic, game #2 - and pic... i still might do it and just borrow jana's pics from tonight. it was so fun!

i miss my hubby though. 

we really are like ships passing in the night and it's getting old. i read an article (ensign maybe?) recently that talked about how dividing and conquering is maybe not the best thing for a marriage.

 huh... that's like on our family crest, so that would mean we're in trouble.

 i do think, at least for our family we'll still have to divide and conquer, but it would be nice to see each other for more than a few minutes a day. or a date night might be nice too. just a crazy idea. ;)
