Happy Thanksgiving.....moving on

Well, we had a great Thanksgiving. Lots of family time. Jake is healing well. He has been the best patient except for taking his medicine but we are now done with that. He is even eating some "crunchy" things like crackers.

Friday it is our annual put up the Christmas decorations day. The kids had a blast going through their ornaments. I buy them one every year and they love looking back and hearing the stories to each one. As we were decorating the fire place Michael was up in the attic cleaning up. We had several leaks during the hurricane that had to be repaired and they are finally done. He was bringing down all the gross blankets and buckets and sweeping when I heard a loud crash. I screamed his name several times and he never answered so me and the kids took off running. He finally answered he was fine he was "just a flippin idiot". He has been around me way to long he is talking like me now! Taylor yells at me not to come any further. That is when I realized his voice was coming from Tate's bathroom (hmm wasn't he in the attic)?? Well, half of him was and the other half was in Taylor's bathroom. I just walked away and let him clean it up. (I did get a few pictures and was quite proud I didn't loose my cool...that much!)

So, with that being fixed now we started the week back to school. I was actually a little sad to have to get up and going. Michael had been home for four days and would have loved a lazy day at home with the kids with all his crap gone!

Monday afternoon I started feeling really bad and ended up with the stomach flu. I lost 5 pounds in 8 hours..now how do I keep that off?? I was wiped for two days after and still feel a bit queasy. My MIL and mom save the day. My mom ran Taylor around the last two days and my sweet MIL kept the boys so I could sleep all day Tuesday! THANK YOU!!! So, last night at 12AM Caden gets it. UGH! I am so tired and sleep deprived! I still am really weak and am frustrated b/c tomorrow was his day to go to school..I know selfish but its one day! Anyway, he is sleeping on a palette on my floor and my mom once again is running Taylor around!

Hopefully a better post next week! Pictures of roof coming soon!
