So as you can see my sweet little boy has been sick his whole life so far. Poor kid, but despite all the illness he remains a smiley boy. I work with his Dr. and he waits each week for my phone calls and for his jaw to drop at what else this little boy can get. This last time I talked to him he said that I really need to stop bathing my kids in the gutter. Is there something wrong with that? No but really I am obsessed with hand sanitizer and washing hands, I don't take him anywhere, I guess it's just my luck (or a germy 4 year old boy that lives with us). Hopefully we don't continue on this trend the whole winter!!!

Despite all of our stress with Luke we have been able to have a little bit of fun this fall. My sister Holly came out for a week to visit before she has her baby girl in December. But while she was here me, Corbin, Hayden (her little boy) and Luke all go the Swine flu. So that kind of put a damper on some of our plans. But it was so good to see her, we did some knitting, took a diet break and ate some good food, went to a fun sprinkle shower for her, and did some trick or treating. Corbin had fun going to the pumpkin patch with his preschool, but was sad when he couldn't go to his Halloween party and be a cowboy with his two buddies because he was sick. Despite it all we had a good time, I'm just sad that Holly had to come all the way from Ohio for her little guy to catch the Swine flu, sorry Holls!
