paint, flu, school

this month i decided to move kate into the guest room. it's bigger than her room, plus it has 2 closets...what girl wouldn't love that??? (f.y.i. - i didn't put her in that room when we moved in cause our guest room had a king bed & kate was still in the crib. so it made since at the time to put her in the smaller room.) last week i painted the guest room "livable green" from sherwin. she couldn't wait to move in. she keeps running into both rooms saying, "this is my OLD room....and this is my NEW room."

in less exciting news, max had the flu last week. i was very surprised when the test came back positive. the dr said it was a light case since he had the vaccine. thank you Lord! the worst part was his cough. he gags VERY easily. one night i had to change his sheets twice....yuck!! when he's sick, i keep a bucket in his bed, but he couldn't get to it in time. in this pic he's doing a breathing treatment. kate found an elephant mask & said she was doing her treatment, too.

school has been keeping us busy. kate had a thing last week. i've been getting ready for teacher appreciation. next week i'll be in max's room a bunch. plus we're doing a field trip & egg hunt. come on spring break, i'm ready for ya! here's a pic of elle & kate at school last week. they dressed up to recite nursery rhymes. elle did "mary had a little lamb" & kate did "rain rain go away." she had already taken her rain gear off.

I LOVE the green color. That's kind of what I've had in mind for Emily's room when/if I ever get around to painting it. I'll have to check it out!
