I guess that this will be my month. I finally have a nurse to help me out in the day. Hip hip huray! At least for the next three weeks I will have a nurse to help me out during the day 5 days a week. Isen't that crazy. I dont know what I'll do come December, but we will cross that road when we have to.

Happy Halloween
The baby has been sick for the past two months, and the kids keep bringing home one bug after another. I am starting to wonder if any of us will ever be well again. I have always loved Halloween, but this year I was just to tired to get in the spirit. Adam had a costume day at school, so I sent Chris to pick something out at wal-mart. It ended up to be cute, and Adam was happy. Other then that, the only Halloween decoration we had was a pumpkin that our friend brought over when he came to visit. Somehow, it just randomly grew in his yard. How does that happen? I have to plant, water, fertilize, and pollinate, and I'm lucky if I get anything to grow. He just lets random things pop up and grow. Hmmm.... Anyway back to the story. Halloween comes along, and Chris woke up and wanted to make a big breakfast. I tried to say no. I had a million reasons why I did not want to do it, the mess, the time etc... Chris said that it was a holiday, and he wanted to celebrate. So, we did a big breakfast. Then he pulled out the pumpkin that his friend had given us, and carved it with Adam. Adam had so much fun, and the fun was contagious. Soon we were all in the mood to make this a memorable holiday. We got down the Halloween boxes and started decorating the yard. Chris got out the projector and we played a Halloween movie on some sheets in front of our garage. At one point I came out to find a group of teenagers sitting in our driveway to watch the show. Its nice to be the cool house. I made a nice sausage and potato soup with bread sticks for dinner and at the end of the day felt wonderful. Of course the next day I had a mess to clean up, but I think that it was worth it!
