"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag"

We are definitely feeding some birds. I know that our pets eat a lot, but the ducks and geese also graze on the weeds and grass stuff. So I was wondering how we are going through food so fast. Lately I have been noticing how many other birds just swoop in and help themselves to the feast. We have become the neighborhood bird feeders. I know there's really nothing to do about it, so eat up little birds. I hope you are enjoying it. It costs more than a tuppence a bag, but that's okay :).

My little Bryn is feeling better now, thank goodness. I was getting pretty worried there for a bit. She had bad diarrhea and a really bad rash on her bottom, and the fever for 3 days too. On the third day I took her in to see our doc. and they tested her for strep. She said she knows she's got a sore throat because it was really red and had white patches on it. Poor girl! The test came back negative, so it was just a bad virus that had to run its course. So we've been making lots of fruit smoothies, and eating popsicles, and slushies, etc. to help soothe her throat (that and lots of ibuprofen which I learned is better for sore throats than tylenol). We've also gone through almost an entire bottle of desitin and A&D Ointment, and they gave us some antibiotic cream for her rash. But she is definitely on the mend now, which I am grateful for.

This week has been so much better for me as far as allergies because I can take Zyrtec D now that I'm out of the first trimester. Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!!
We've also had some pretty intense storms the past two nights that keep me up a lot. I wake up to everything, but especially when there's lightning flashing like strobe lights through our window, and thunder splitting the sky open and rain pounding on our house. I only wish they'd happen like that during the day so I can see them!

Kenny's been working late every night this week, like really late. Last night he didn't get home until 10:03, which meant that not only did he not get to see the kids at all again, but I missed my recipe club with relief society! It was a bummer. I guess Kenny and I will be eating a rather fancy salad for dinner tonight.

Well this post is getting more and more lame, and it doesn't have a point, or pictures. So, until next time.
