Catch Up

Since it has been almost two weeks since I have posted I figured I better catch up. We have been busy around here. Last week my sis turned 17- CRAZY! She will be graduating next year, so scary! We had a fun night visiting and looking over more wedding stuff Harriet sent- I am so excited! Then Marianne and Amy decided to give me a makeover. It was fun playing "dress up", Ky said I looked like a teenager! I figure hey if I can pull that off I am not going to complain!
Ash also had a fun day at school. They dressed up as their favorite storybook character. Ash was Cam Jansen, I thought her freckles were so cute!
Kami seemed to come down with a cold or something. She had a cough and fever then got better and got sick again. Tuesday night she spiked a fever of 103.1 and had us up all night. I took her to the doc on Wed and he put her on 3 different medications plus neb treatments. She actually does very well with the neb treatments. I just turn on Mickey and she is good to go I don't even have to sit with her. That nebulizer has more than paid for itself.
I still can't help but feel sorry for her, but thankfully she is doing much better. The doc wasn't exactly sure what was wrong with her. Her lungs were clear but her cough just got horrible. He suggested the flu and then a secondary infection, which is what I figured but the flu? She had both flu vaccines so that isn't very likely. Thankfully, she seems back to her old self, tearing apart the house!
Ash and Katie have been doing dance in town here. They were so cute, but last week Katie decided she didn't want to do it anymore. I got some good video of Ash. Although, she does better when she doesn't know I am filming, I will try again next week. This is after her third class.


Friday we spent the day finishing the demo in the basement and hauling out all the garbage. We loaded the trailer down and carried out 12 big black garbage cans full of crap. We are 98% done with the demo!! We are now going to start building more walls and Ky has to do some fire blocking, but we are almost ready to spray the kilz! It was exhausting work. The girls had so much fun helping, they are so excited!
These are the picts I took today. It has been so nice lately and today we finally had no more snow on the driveway! The girls had fun getting their bikes out and enjoying the fresh air. We still need to sweep off the driveway and do some spring yard work once the rest of the snow is gone. It was ironic though, we were basking in the sun in the front of the house and Ky was snowmobiling in the backyard!
Last weekend we spent some time with Ky's family. We had fun snowmobiling, playing games, and talking baby talk! Yep, it is officially out in the open Chris and Chantelle are having a baby! They are due September 16th and Ash said she hopes the baby will be born on her birthday. We are so excited! Probably me the most. I will finally have a baby close that I can hold and give back then go home and sleep. It has been fun talking about all the baby stuff! Congratulations Chris and Chantelle!
And I can happily say that I am all but done with the taxes!!! That will be a happy day!
I think I hit most of the highlights from the past week, I honestly don't remember what we did the week before that seems so long ago. Right now I am focusing on spring and sun!

Wow you guys have been busy! I can't believe that Marianne is 17- I was on Eli's facebook page a the other day and noticed that he and Marianne were 'friends' ... I was amazed that they remembered each other.., Poor Kami, what a sweetie to put up with it all so well. You keep talking about this basement remodel- You should put up some pics of your progress! That will be so fun for your girls to have a cousin close by. Loved the update- you are all so busy, Kat I don't know how you keep up with it all!
