Glad We're Not Single Parents

This weekend was one to really make us wonder how single parents ever manage multiple kids. Evan seemed to be getting sick Thursday night but made it through the day on Friday without any calls from daycare. Amanda was picking up pizza Friday evening, but before she even got home, Kaitlyn walked into the kitchen where I was getting Evan's supper ready and proceeded to throw up... everywhere. I just had finished cleaning up when Amanda got home, so she took over with Kaitlyn and I proceeded to feed Evan. Just as he was finishing his second jar of baby food, he lost all of that. Sunday night now and Kaitlyn is still sick, but at least she is sleeping. Evan is much better but not back to normal either. Our hopes that this was a 12- or 24-hour bug faded long ago.

On a lighter note, Kaitlyn did provide us with another good quote before all this started on Friday. This one came from one of her school projects where they start a phrase or song and let each kid fill in their own ending. As you can see below, sometimes a picture is worth the words written on it.


It also snowed Saturday afternoon and night, which was Evan's first. Though he really isn't old enough to play in it and it was too cold for him to be out long, we checked it out.
