Strep Throat and Pinewood Derby

Strep

What do these two things have to do with another? Absolutely nothing, that is just what has been going on in our house this past month. We think the Strep started with Avery, then, Brynn, Jaxon, and then last but not least me. Russ was on Antibiotics before this all started so I think he dodged it all. We hope that it doesn't recirculate through the house again. I think that once one person is diagnosed with it, it should be mandatory that the rest of the household automatically start take anitbiotics for it. What do you think?

Pinewood Derby

Jaxon and Russ have been working on there car for about 2 weeks and last night was the Race. Jaxon placed 1st in his Wolf den. He was really close to getting in the top three but didn't quite make it. Jaxon had a lot of fun. I think Russ may have had even more fun.

Complaint

Ok, so I just have to say that I have never made an official complaint for bad service, but I did today. I went into Dollar Tree and was treated very rude by this worker. To make a long story short, I called there customer service number and of course, had to leave a message, but nonetheless I let them know what had happened. Then I went over to Roberts and Brynn peed on there floor (as you can tell the potty training isn't going so well) and they were so kind and understood things like this happen. I was the one to clean it up of course, but they were nice about it. I love Roberts!

The Family

So, Brynn still loves Dora and would watch it all day if I let her. She is so independent and we are trying to Potty Train. She does ok. Avery is climbing up and down the stair really well. She will sometime stand on her own. She is so much fun. Jaxon has started basketball and is doing well. He had a couple of days off for Martin Luther King Day, and loved that. We went to the park and the dentist on our days off. Everything is slowly returning to normal, after all the sickness going around! Russ is still hobbling around with his two hurt ankles. I am babysitting on Mondays and Wednesdays. Life is busy,crazy!

Heres some pictures of the Pinewood Derby and others.

Ahhh the joys of potty training. My sister brings along the little training potty and keeps it in the back of her car when potty training her kids. Jaxon did great in the derby! Glad you are over STrep! yeah for antibiotics too!

That is no fun to clean up an "accident" especially at a store. At least you were treated well in that store. I hope your kids are feeling better.

I love potty training days. I think we are going to be entering them soon with David, at least I hope we are! I am sorry you have all been sick, that is never fun. Our pinewood derby is coming up, I hate it! Eric and I are not good at helping Robbie...he needs his papa here to help him. He is in trouble this year!
