What a start to Winter

The last 2 weeks of school the boys have had a weird virus with fevers on and off. They missed a few days of school. One day I was so sick I couldn't get out of bed so they stayed home too. Finally it seems like they are on the mend. I am still finding my voice and getting my energy back. Hopefully this not going to be a pattern of our Winter , the boys have done really well this year and we attribute that to all the Vit D they got for a whole month last year in South Africa.
I wasn't feeling the greatest over the weekend but the boys wanted to see the dinosaur movie so badly. It was a cute movie and the boys we glued from beginning to end. It was also a perfect length for little boys who cannot sit still for very long.

We are still dealing with Brocs reflux so Dr Turk is having us see his colleague who has studied these issue with kids at Cincinatti Children's. We will have a fresh set of eyes on Broc and hopefully we can figure out a solution for him.

We are still trying to get him to drink the soy formula to get more calories in him. I tried to have him go gluten free but he was so frustrated with not being able to eat things he liked that he just refused to eat at all. Mark,myself and his dr decided that was not the best option for him so we will just limit gluten intake. It also never took the tummy pain away either. Not sure if we will ever find a solution for his tummy pain.

On a happy note we have a snow party planned for the boys on Friday. A pity the rain came and melted all the snow. Oh well I think they will have fun with their friends whatever they do. I have lots of yummy treats planned and we are also setting up the jumping castle in the basement. We are hoping for a little snow for the kids to play in otherwise we will stay inside and drink hot chocolate while watching movies and playing games.

Hopefully my next post will be full of pics of our fun day.
