a light at the end of the tunnel

i think we may be over the worst of it.  i hope.  fingers crossed.  marley just has a little bit of snot, but other than that is her usual sunny self.  davis is laughing again and doesn't seem to be as congested.  ben is on the front half of this cold though.  but we got him good and medicated, with the hopes it passes quickly.  louie is sick as well.  it has been a week of vomit and shit.  last night ben came home to the front room covered in louie poop.  and then i found more when i woke up.  he ate fine and is acting ok now, so i think he just ate something he shouldn't have.  we're keeping a close eye on him, but i think he's alright.  the plumbers came and re landscaped our front yard for us.  it is obvious why they are plumbers and not gardeners, but hey we have working pipes!  no more worries of poop in the shower.  that is priceless. 
so i was all doom and gloom earlier.  you know, two sick kids, expensive plumbing work, sick husband, sick dog, filling fell out (yes ANOTHER one.  while i was flossing.  one day my teeth are just going to all fall out.  i mean i already don't eat anything crunchy for fear of that), etc.  but then i talked to my brother.  and it's impossible to stay in a bad mood when you talk to kirby.  we talked about a little bit of everything.  and laughed.  and i feel a million times better now.  instead of doom and gloom, i am now seeing it as the kids are better, louie is better, and we have working plumbing.  my brother has charisma to spare and  he is definitely not a debbie downer.  best news of the day is that my brother will be coming to visit soon. 
someone is feeling better.
and guess who got tooth number 8 today?  that's right.  davis has more teeth than she has months. 
someone loves tractors

my girls.
