More randomness, laced with complaining and bitching, followed by completely ABSOLUTELY adorable pictures of my kids

Sick of sick.
BLASTED (shaking fits at ceiling) I'm SO tired of my kids being sick.
They have yet ANOTHER round of colds and the worst thus far....it includes horrible coughing. Sounds like it's in their chest but really it's just hanging out in their tubes all wet and moist and raspity and barkity. This virus has taken my children to the mother ship and replaced them with something UGLY. something that cries all of the time and whines at EVERYTHING included when someone walks past them and the air moves the sleeve on their jammies and OMG don't you know what just happened or when they have been laid down because I can't hold both of you at the same time let alone all FOUR OF YOU and I have to make lunch (that they all cry about) and serve it up (which none of them will eat any ways) and what they do eat seems to make it's way through their little bodies and takes on the form of something that's been shaken not stirred. Something that's been through a juicer and not so much steamed.
(sigh)
pulease stop crying.....(followed of course by sounds of my own crying)

They are so sick and so I've had to suck it up and stay calm, cool and collect through it all...because...it sucks as bad to be sick as it does taking care of one (or 5) who are sick.
Please God let this end quickly and also make it end before the boys 4 month appointments so that I don't have to make the decision to wait on immunizing them which means I will have to return because even though it's been proven that autism isn't caused by immunizing your kids while they are sick, like plastic in the microwave, it still sits in the back of my mind and that little voice inside my head pulls the hairs in my nose until I listen while nodding and smiling at the pediatrician who is of course gritting her teeth and saying politely for the 20th time, "no it doesn't, but we'll do whatever makes you feel comfortable" (pat, pat, pat). amen.

We did manage this week to go to beer school. I learned all about how beer is made, what's in it, and how you drink it. (apparently through a tube with a funnel on the end isn't the best way to appreciate the taste of a good beer)
I also found out why I'm not supposed to drink Bud.light but will continue drinking it because like saturated fat I've acquired a taste for it. (we're queer, we're here, so give us a light beer)
I was able to consume a heffa with unfortunately no lemon because we were "appreciating" it's natural flavor. still so yummy.

We went to J's work Christmas party. There was expensive wine. Great food and even dancing at the end of the night.
















When we aren't passing sick kids off to babysitters we do play with them.
Sometimes.

Here's my rollin' rollin' Raspberry blowin' hunk of playin fun. (Ryan)













The coughiest of the group and you wouldn't know it by the smile on his face. (Nathan)















Look mom, no hands.


















Laugh factory.


















And then on to the game called mom hides and then scares the living SHIT out of the boys.
Here is an unsuspecting Spencer asking sweetly "Where's mama ?" (look even the dog looks scared)

















"RAAAAH !!!"




















(spencer in a diaper because of a major blow out moments before)

you are always able to hide in the same spot because 2 year olds apparently have the memory of fish :)
and once again....."RAAAH !!!"




















(and then insane laughter ensues, because although completely immature, it's fun as hell scaring them)
