One of Those Weeks

How shall I describe the Jones family Spring Break? Awful? Horrible? Hellish. Yeah...that's it. That pretty much hits the nail on the head.

Our spring break was comprised of the following priceless moments:
  • excruciating pain from a toothache
  • rain
  • more rain
  • kid with pink eye
  • oh...another kid with pink eye
  • make that three kids with pink eye
  • pink-eye triplets can't really go out in public
  • LOTS and LOTS of TV
  • am I getting pink eye too?
  • kid throwing up at midnight...and so on
  • blue nail polish swirled all over my kitchen floor
  • root canal
  • complications from root canal
  • pain, pain, pain and MORE pain
  • puke, puke, puke and MORE  puke
  • broken camera lens thanks to a grabby little boy
But, we made it. We're all alive...and mostly well. It's a good thing I LOVE these three little hooligans:

I need a vacation. (Two weeks and counting.)

Holly told me about your root canal- and coming from someone who has had 3 of them, and one infection- I REALLY feel your pain. It's the WORST. I hope you and your kids (talk about one thing after another!) are doing better!

Root canal! Throw Ups! Pink Eye! I'm so sorry Ame! I hope you're all feeling better! You poor thing! The pictures of the kids are darling though!

I must confess that I "lurk" about your blog sometimes & I love reading about all your adventures. You make me realize that motherhood isn't just horrible for me, but others have plenty of "disaster days" also. I am so glad that I got the chance to meet you while living with my parents & I think that even if I didn't know you I'd want to get to know you just from your blog! :)

What a crazy Spring Break! Hope your kids are feeling better. I am glad that I am not the only one who has "one of those days!"

Yikes! You poor thing. What's the count down for? Somewhere good?

Jodi Jo said...

ohhh. So sorry. That totally and absolutely stinks. I guess that things can only get better, right? Unless somebody's child comes and digs up your garden...
