update

Well, come Valentine's Day, Mark and I both got sick. Thankfully, his parent took the kids that night until Sunday! I would have been a HORRIBLE mother to them. Its such a blessing to know they were having fun away from our germs and they were well cared for-thanks mom and dad!!!
So, for three days, we lay in our own suffering. Because Im pregnant, there was no releif with meds which led to some sleepless nights. You know the drill.
On Tuesday, Mark took us out for some family fun to celebrate post-valentine's. We simply went to the McArthur for dinner and play time. We had so much fun laughing together. It really was a perfect night.
Also, because we were sick, we had to cancel our trip to Williamsburg for the Marriage Retreat--stink. We thought about still going and just being sick in a nice hotel, but we couldn't think to make the drive. God still used that weekend to reveal His grace in our marriage. I was excited to learn last night that we will get a copy of all the sermons mailed to us!

So, that has been my life in the past week...now Im just happy to have my kiddies back and to be busy again.

As soon as I have a memory card to a camera I am borrowing I will post pictures--Im sure you all miss seeing us!! :) A belly shot will follow, too.

Take care!

I'm sorry you guys missed the conference... I was wondering if y'all were there. I've been sick too. I can't handle it... I can't imagine caring for children at the same time. Hope you're all doing better now.

We have one of the integrity trainee's staying with us for the next two weeks... you and Mark should come hangout for dinner one night ( maybe sat.?). Anyway, he's kind of a 'whole grain' sorta guy, so I need some recipes! Just thought of you friend.
