Crunch time!

So we had a great weekend! My mom came down to visit with my two younger sisters, two of my nieces, and one of my nephews. They came down Saturday night. They arrived about nine PM, and wanted to go to Belmont Park, so we did. We got home abotu 1 AM (with the kids). Sunday morning we went to church, then went to Coronado and went to the beach. Sunday night the older younger sister had to fly home, leaving my mom and 4 kids between 12 and 14. It was a blast though! Monday we went to Sea World. My camera battery died within the first 10 minutes that we were there, so no pictures. We were there from 11 AM to 10 PM. I was shocked that my kids did very well. Today we got up and went to the beach in La Jolla all day. Tonight they left. It was a crazy few days, but we had so much fun!

So, its now Tuesday night. We are packing our moving truck on Saturday morning, and I have not packed a thing! Well, that's not true. My mom kept saying that I needed to start packing, and that they would help me (when I'm not sure) so I packed one box with our winter coats this morning. So, I have 3 days to pack the whole house. Wanna know the really fun part? My kids are sick. Of course, aren't they always sick?

Last Tuesday Lincoln woke up with goopy, redish eyes. They didn't really look like pink eye, and didn't seem to really bug him, but I gave him some leftover pinkeye drops anyway. The next day he ran a high fever all day. Since then he has had cold symptoms, a horrible barking cough, and been extreamly grumpy. Friday I woke up with the mother of all headaches, a chest that burned every time I breathed, a nose so congested I felt like it would never clear, and a throat that felt like it was swollen almost shut. Now I knew what Lincoln felt like. The next day I had the goopy eyes, but they haven't really gone away yet. As far as I know I haven't had a fever. Yesterday at Sea World Savannah was really whiney, but I figured it was just because she was overtired. Today she ran a fever all day, and kept telling everyone that she needed to go to the doctor. Yes, we still took her to the beach. Maybe I am a bad mom. She took 3 naps today, and when we sat down for dinner at 7 PM she said that she was too sick to eat. So I told her to go lay down, and by the time I was done eating she was asleep. Hopefully they are both feeling better tomorrow and don't require any doctor visits. I just don't have time for that this week.
