Phil's away in Bahrain this weekend for a basketball tournament. The last time he was away (Halloween weekend), we didn't get sick until the end of our Daddy-less time. But THIS TIME, we decided to be EXTREME about it all, and so ALL THREE OF US are already fighting something interesting...
Despite the germs, we actually had a great time together last night - making pink cupcakes, playing with dolls, getting our nails painted with Auntie, having a tubby, and jumping in the bed while "Max and Ruby" played on my computer.
Once the girls went to bed, I was able to FACETIME with Phillip because........BREAKING NEWS EVERYONE!!!! After owning an iPhone since LAST JUNE, Phil HAS FINALLY DECIDED TO USE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Imagine my surprise when my phone started ringing to a FaceTime request from my husband :) Y'all should be PROUD! (He's also started to use Facebook more, too!)
Anyways, right now, the girls are still asleep and I'm drinking as much warm caffeine as I can :) I only had to sweep up one broken glass before I made coffee (Ben and Winka, for sure) and now I'm sipping away to the sweet sounds of construction outside my window. Speaking of outside....it's THREE DEGREES, you guys!
HAPPY FRIDAY to everyone back home! I posted this for my students yesterday, so I'll do the same for you now....XOXO
Nory spiked a fever this week and woke up with her eyes glued shut on Wednesday morning. She also has a rash. And so, she's on eye drops three times a day (optimistically) and "magic cream" whenever we can convince her she needs some.
Juliet didn't sleep well on Wednesday night and spiked a fever last night. We played the familiar "hold me / don't hold me" game in the evening and we also decided to change into a SECOND PAIR of pajamas (both of us!) after her diaper failed to DO ITS JOB. Gross. But true. Thankfully, Juliet is the most calm, patient, EASY baby to change EVER. #biggestlieofthecentury
As for me, I've been battling a cold / flu / no idea ever since we returned from Finland. I've taken a day off school, I've been to the doctor, I've taken medicine......We're dealing with a CATEGORY FIVE in the STUBBORN GERM DEPT.

| The two of us before Phil left school for the airport. One of us was a little more excited for the weekend than the other. Refresher: EYE DROPS. THREE TIMES A DAY. FOR A THREE YEAR OLD. |
