sick and holidays

So last week was a pretty rough week in our household. All the kids were sick. Yes, I said all! Kayla was the least of my worries and Brianna wasn't awful either but Emma and Alex are just the same when they get bad. They both had fevers and were throwing up. It was not fun from one stand point but when you have sick kids, your house some how stays clean!!! I was beyond excited about that! That was my first time having all kids at once sick.

Emma pretty much lived on the couch for a few days. As long as she had her tablet she was fine. She did a lot of sleeping too. I'm glad her and Alex got their rest but their sleep also got super messed up. It's mostly back to normal now though. Last night I told Emma it was tie for bed because she had school today. Both her and Alex grabbed their stuff and went to bed. I'm like shit why can't they do this every night? For the most part they usually do but sometimes I'll get a fight.

With holidays coming up I'm trying to keep the kids healthy but in all honesty if they are sick, i don't really mind either. I'm a home body and would rather spend the day at home relaxing with the kids. That's what i honestly wanna do on Thanksgiving. Sit at home and watch the parade and our local news channel does this thing called the Turkey Bowl every year. I enjoy watching that. Its bowling with a turkey and cans of cranberry sauce. Very fun to watch.

Also with the holidays coming up, I'm looking forward to the few movies I enjoy watching to death. I like The Santa Clause movies with Tim Allen, Home Alone 1 and 2, Elf(Of course), and National Lampoons. Those are my go to Christmas movies. Oh and you can't forget the Charlie Brown Christmas special. When i was younger it was also always about the South Park Christmas episode. The one episode kenny didn't die in.

So the Christmas tree we have is like 3 or 4 years old. Last year i didn't put any decorations on it except the kids 3 decorations. The tree is pre lit so thats all that was on it. I have kids and a dog who undecorate. This year I don't think I want to put the big tree up. It honestly just needs tossed. I kind of want a small tree. I wouldn't put a tree up at all if I didn't have kids. Or I just need a felt wall tree that the kids can decorate and undecorate themselves. We'll see what happens.

That's all I got for now. I'm honestly just rambling at this point. See you guys soon.

We are almost at the half way point already! Brianna is growing up so fast. She's being a lazy butt though and not wanting to do much but then again, Kayla was the same way. Alex was my fast learner with things. We haven't started cereal yet because we've all been sick and Brianna has also had a chest cold. I hate this time of year. Seems like all the kids are getting sick. It's worse when a baby is sick because there is literally nothing you can give them except tylenol. So for now, we just wait it out. These are my big girls stats for the month!
