We have the pox!

And yes, it's a good thing! It's a shot that we knew we wouldn't get, and if you want to know reasons why, I'll be glad to give you that info. Otherwise it's incredibly boring! Anyway, I always hated the idea of exposing them on purpose, but God took care of that! We got it from our friends at a play date! I did take Zane back to the friends house, to make sure he was exposed, because my fear was that he would get them after the older two did.

Laney is fine. She's laying on the couch, eating and watching movies. This is mild compared to some of the stuff we've dealth with. I'm not sure the anything will ever be as bad as the 9 day throw up virus. That beat even the pneumonia. I also have a homeopathic arsonal that I'm about to start using!

The boys have no spots yet, and I'm hoping the get them soon or we're going to be doing another one of the 10-21 day quarentines again waiting for them to get it. But then at least we'll be done forever! And this is a good time of year to be hanging around the house. Great weather, no obligations, good baking weather. I'm hoping to get the door and last bathroom painted too. We actually love staying at home! Oddly enough. We're just weird that way...


And we are having fun too! This is Zane, dressed partly as Spidermun, and party as Dora. Oh me. Just never, never a dull moment. He even followed me into the bathroom this morning, and I said, "Zane, will you please close the door so Mommy can have some privacy?" He was glad to. He came right into the bathroom and closed the door. Then he tried to sit in my lap. Bring on the teenagers, man. I know they're tough, but won't I at least get to go to the bathroom by myself? I'd do a lot to be able to pee alone. Maybe he's just figured out that I hide in there sometimes. He's a smart one, that one. Dang it.

Okay, this picture of Zane actually frightens me a little. Maybe it's the feet pointed at an odd angle... but he's still cute! He just looks so darn excited to be a Dora/Spiderman hybrid! Glad your pox aren't too debilitating- I don't think ANYTHING could beat a 9 day throw up virus

YEA! (I guess..) :-) I hope it continues to be mild and bearable. And Spidey-Dora-mun is scary. I agree.

Laney, we're thinking about you girl and hoping you will only have them for a short time and that picture of Zane is so adorable and hilarious at the same time. I love it!!
