sick kids...

are not fun at all...especially when they're little and can't tell you what hurts! Zach and Seth have both been sick this week - Zach started getting sick last Friday and when I took him in to the ped. on Monday he had a double ear infection and upper resp. yucks...Monday night Seth started coughing and acting really tired, so it's just been a blast around here the last few days. Hopefully we're on the down-hill-side though, and everyone will be healthy for Valentine's Day next week!

Speaking of Valentine's Day, I was asked to do a challenge on the Making Memories blog for today. My assignment was to share some quick and easy Valentine's Day Cards -- I love it when I can make something for work that I can also use at home. And I'm happy to say that the Valentine's Day cards for my kids and husband are DONE already! Hooray!

I did venture out today and took the boys to Provo. I needed to pick up the 500+ prints that I sent to Costco to be printed. And I'm copying my friend, Angela, and bought some 3-up albums at Costco to organize all of our photos in. I'll just pull out the ones I want to scrapbook when I'm ready - but at least we can enjoy the pictures until that time comes. (Thanks, Ang!) This set is almost six months worth of photos from last year - January through part of June. Feels good to have them printed...now I just need to get them in order and put in the albums.

Of course, we had to visit Target and Gymboree too...and I bought some fun things for the kids for Valentine's day - but it's a secret! (Meagan likes to check my blog...so I won't be spoiling her surprise today.)

Okay, the boys are sleeping and the big kids will be home any minute...time to get something done!
