The end of the week turned out to be a bit hectic - I had my first test on Friday morning, so I spent the last part of the week studying. And then on the way to take my test, Peter threw up about two blocks before we got to the babysitter's house - ack! I thought we were out of the woods - no one had shown any symptoms for two days.
Ryan was already a work (an hour away) and had carpooled anyway, so I would've had to go get him. Emergency mode! Long story short - I took Peter with me to the test (yes - I did ask to take the test later in the day, but the response from my teacher and my thoughts on that are a whole different story!), he threw up once more, but we made it to the bathroom that time, and when I was about three questions away from being finished, my teacher brought me a note telling me that the babysitter had called to say that Ned had thrown up and I needed to come get him.

I finished up my test, picked up Ned, and went home and did nothing for the rest of the day except eat saltine crackers and drink flat soda. We've taken it easy this weekend too...we ate dinner in as a family yesterday and today I kept the boys home from church (since apparently this thing just comes on with no warning) and we made Valentines. I bought the digital file for the animal ones from Up Up Creative. Peter enjoyed putting them together...
and Ned loved taking them apart.
those turned out really cute. love it!

I'm so sorry about your test and the throw-ups. I'm sure you will get a super score on the test because you weren't distracted at all, right? :)
