HELP!! - Everyone is Sick!

This last week has been crazy - everyone in the house has been sick. We even spent Sunday night/monday morning in the ER with Mattie because she was coughing so hard she was changing colors. We thought she may have had RSV but - thank goodnes that was not the case. Just a common cold that has gone hay wire.

Everything else has been going well. Thomas is doing awesome in school. We just had parent teacher conferences this week and were told that Thomas is doing excellent. He is right where he needs to be and seems to be enjoying his school. Kate and Mattie have started with a new caregiver. She is awesome with the kids and they are doing very well with her.

Mattie has started smiling and is recognizing her family. It is so fun!! I forgot how neat it is to have a baby in the house because they bring such a sense of calm and peacfulness to the family. Kate is a great big sister - ready to help at any moment. She is still our princess and makes sure we are still aware of that and tells us frequently that when Mattie is ready, she will help her be a princess too. Thomas and Mattie I have decided have a very special bond. He can make her laugh like nobody else and she brings out a real sensitive side of him we don't see very often.
