TMI – but you know you wanted to know how sick we really are!?

Last night was fun! Wohoo!! Bo’s fever reached it’s highest at 104.3 after a day of him acting better and having a lower fever(still not under 100) He was only content sleeping if he laid on our chest and no matter how long you’d wait to put him down he’d wake up screaming. He kept waking up screaming a lot. I finally gave him some more tylenol around 2 am and gave him a drink and he slept til 7ish. he’s out again now sleeping on Dean’s chest. Dean seems a little better today, he hasnt thrown up in a few hours! Caleb had an upset stomach last night and once this morning but now he seems fine, he’s just sick of us not playing with him. I am sick now and have spent most of the night and morning so far in the bathroom. So the poor kid is bored out of his mind. Dean has missed two days of work now and he’s got a second job lined up to work this weekend, saturday night, so we’re just hoping he’s better by then so he can work and get a little extra money.

I cant beleive it’s almost August, Caleb’s birthday is soon and I had big plans for this weekend to prepare for the party but looks like I”m not going to be doing much this weekend. Did I mention my yard sale finds last week? Well if I did here goes again…I have been looking on ebay and at stores for a reasonably priced dinosaur comforter for Calebs room. His room was decorated w/ bears and abcs and it was cute but he’s in this loving dinosaurs phase and he needed a room redo so I was thinking of doing that. I found the cutest dinosaur comforter at a yard sale last week for $2! Yep just $2. Not a thing wrong with it. The lady was selling things for really cheap, my friend and I got some great deals. by the time we were done yard saling I had a dinosaur pillow for $0.50 , some dino books for $0.25 a piece and a big bag of dinosaurs for I think $0.50. He was camping last weekend so when he got home I had his books and dinos laid out for him next to his new comforter! He was so thrilled. we have since taken down the wallpaper and bear stickers on his walls so now it’s just a matter of painting, I was planning on doing that tonight and tomorrow. Unfortunately it wont happen now that we’re all sick!

I also found a puppet stage that you hang from a door way and 16 puppets all for $10. Caleb is going to love that, I put it away for his birthday present, he is going to be really excited. I had left one puppet our for Boaz to see while I was driving and Caleb kept playing with it when he got home. he loves to put on shows so this is a great birthday present for him! both the puppet stage and the comforter were things I’d been looking for for a long time and it took one day of shopping and less than $20 to accomplish buying them! I couldnt have been happier. I’d really be happy though if i could have Caleb’s room repainted before his party next week and I know with enough determination I can get it done, once I am feeling better that is!

well Gotta get back to the bathroom…TMI I know. If I’m not returning calls it’s because we’re all either sleeping or in the bathroom!
