Week of March 9-15

This week was supposed to be my rest week. I ended up coming down with bronchitis and a sinus infection....but alas, no rest for the weary! So on Tuesday we had massive amounts of blood drawn from Madison. Poor girl, when we pulled up to the hospital and I told her and Zach what was happening she kept saying, no no mama! I decided fun should be had by Zach too, so he got the first of 6 shots to get ready for the next school year....although he was a trooper about the whole thing. Then Ash had her physical for the upcoming track season. No shots there but she wanted one...I said really! Teenagers.....

The weather has been wacky this week....a few gorgeous days....had to take Maddie out for an outing at the park to be topped off with riding her bike...included some footage there. She also, said her name this week, and can sing Old MacDonald with assistance....and even got from A to G in the alphabet....she is making tremendous strides.

Ash started track....and is running like crazy...seems to be enjoying it.....Zach started soccer....we can't wait to be spectators at both events!

On March 11, Mike received exciting news that he received his next promotion! We are soooo proud of him and all of his hard work!

Lastly, to top off the week we got new granite counter tops put in. The look great! Now our cabinets look dated...hoping that with new hardware they will be OK, otherwise we are going to have take out that paintbrush again! (pictures to come later)
