No More Sickness, Please!!!

We were so looking forward to having a nice relaxing weekend at home. We had planned to see my Aunt Julie and Uncle Jeff and their daughters Kim and Ali in Johnson Creek. They were up from Indiana picking Ali up from school. We had also planned to go to our friends Mike and Karen's house on Memorial Day. We unfortunately did not do any of that.
Thursday Jacob tossed his cookies and had very messy diapers, then Friday Ben tossed his cookies and had very messy diapers, Sunday was my turn to toss my cookies. Josh was the only one who did not get sick. On top of it Jacob, Ben and I all have been fighting colds tooo. Plus, Memorial Day was 80+ degrees and humid, not so fun when you are sick. Jacob you can not tell is sick by the way he runs around the house creating what was clean order into utter chaos. Who would have thought this sweet little toddler could be so messy. He can take a room in 5 minutes and make it look like a tornado hit the house. He can even make it look like he is playing and not intentionally just making a mess.
Besides being sick this past week was filled with chiropractor appointments for Jacob and Ben. We decided to take both the boys. Hopefully, it will mean less sickness in the long run, we can only hope. Jacob was pretty out of align after the spill down Grandma Pat's hill, so it was good to get him in.
So, besides getting puked on this weekend and the endless dirty diapers, I am really ready for all of us to be healthy and to enjoy being outside.
Oh yeah, how could I forget, last weekend our lawn more broke. So, we decided to be earth friendly and by a non-gas, non-electric push lawn more. It is not really that bad and it saves gas. However, Thursday evening when I was cutting the grass one of our neighbors was laughing at me and shaking his head. Why pay to go to the YMCA or Bally's to work out when you can mow your own lawn and save the environment!!! There is really never a dull moment in the Toepfer household.
