Sick

Dana at 11:30pm, joined us in the kitchen.  This'll be a fun habit to break.

My kids got little colds at the end of Fall.  Then we all went all winter without being sick.  It was awesome and unbelievable, probably the first time in my life this has happened.  I kept thinking perhaps it was the raw garlic or green smoothies.  Maybe we'd gotten a little lazy with those two things, or maybe it was for humility, but my kids simultaneously came down with the worst colds.  I know, just a cold virus.  But 103.9 fever for 4 nights - it was pretty rough.   I was taking in sometimes 6 full garlic cloves a day!  I am a tiny bit sick, but considering all the boogery fingers that have been in my mouth, and getting woken up 10x a night from the baby in my bed, I'm not as sick as I should be. Use garlic!

Actually, Dana did get sick a few weeks ago.  I keep forgetting about that.

Let's meet!

Levi, Dana, and their cousin Kailyn

Last month I bought a pass to the children's museum in the city. It is a 6 person pass I split with my friend, so I can get 3 people in for free whenever I go. We have been several times already, each time with someone different. And I already have a couple more friends lined up to meet there. Ha ha. But it's an open invitation that if you want to go to the museum, invite me, and you can get in for free. The weather is nice, so I don't think we'll be going as much, but I just wanted to let you all know about it.
Dana and her cousins Lizzie and Emmi. Poor Danes has this bad bout of eczema she's had for months. I can't seem to get rid of it, and I'm wondering if it actually is eczema after all.
