It Appears The H1N1 Is Here

Well, I think our turn for the H1N1 has come and I'm hoping to contain it to only one of the kids. Brady had a cough yesterday and woke up this morning complaining of a bad headache and body aches and he also has a fever. I had some Tamniflu left from last year's flu and I started him on it. I'm hoping that will curb the effects of the flu and I hope and PRAY that no one else gets it. Emma has been coughing and having a runny nose and Ashton also has dry cough. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.


Emma was adorable when she woke up this morning. I went in to get her up and she was bouncing around in the bed and laughing and she stood up and looked at me and said "I love you". Now you might not recognize those words when she says them but we have been working on that for a while. The sweet thing is that she said it unprompted. She has also been putting her hands on my shoulders and making me look right at her when she needs to "tell" me something. She just jabbers and jabbers and then she goes about her way. It's hilarious. One other funny Emma story from yesterday involves her potty habits. For some reason when she has to poop she calls it "nanoo". She immediately comes to me and points her bottom up to me and says nanoo when she needs her diaper changed. Yesterday she did that and I said "do you have a nanoo in your pants" and she just smiled and then took her little hand and waved it front of her nose and said "shoo". It was so cute!



I bought this adorably silly hat and glove set on clearance at Old Navy long before we had Emma and I brought it out for her Wednesday afternoon and she has loved wearing it. She thought the gloves were socks and I had to explain what they were. Bo thinks she looks like an Indian in them. I just think she looks too cute.





Asthon was inducted in to Junior Beta Tuesday night and I wasn't able to get a good picture of him. I am very proud of my boy.

Santa came early to our house this week. My friends Brenda and Ken (aka Honey) brought over this doll house that their granddaughter's had outgrown. Emma was hilarious when she saw it and made her surprise face. She has begun making this face a lot. Her mouth wide open and her eyes get huge. Thanks Honey and Brenda! I have also been warned that this house is big enough to accommodate 2 girls laying on the shelves and hiding for long periods of time. Hmmm.


Emma was scheduled to have some pictures done this morning at the Belle Meade Mansion but now that Brady is sick we had to cancel those plans. I'm so disappointed. I had already chosen all of her outfits and was really looking forward to it. Alas, it was not meant to be.
Well, our weekend plans are up in the air now. Brady's last band competition is tomorrow but it looks like he will not be able to participate. Ashton is already attempting to negotiate his plans but there will be no extra kids here this weekend.
Have a good weekend.

I'll be praying no one else comes down with the flu!

Love the hat.
