On Sunday night, a little running around mixed with wrestling left Sean and Chad seeing stars after head butting each other. Sean with the hard head came out the victor needing only a kiss to help him feel better while Chad ended up with a black eye and needed lots and lots of sympathy plus a bag of ice to feel better.
On Monday Chris woke up with a bad back. Not sure how this injury happened. (Snow shoveling, piggy-bags with the kids, wrestling with the kids, bad bed mattress ???). He has been receiving multiple back massages and heating pads to the wounded area. But still, it is tough for him to bend and sit and get back up. He is starting to look like the old man of the team.
Tuesday must have been loud and eventful at Ferris Preschool. When I picked Sean up from school he had a bright red cheek. The high school student explained that Sean and another kid were fighting over a toy and the other kid decided to bite Sean. So now he has eight teeth marks on his face.
Sean may not act it, but he must be pretty sweet tasting as this is not the first time Sean has been bitten. He was also bitten pretty bad in nursery last year (in fact I think all of my kids have been bitten in nursery - must be the new hazing for toddlers).
Tuesday night brought pain to Lara as her mysterious stomach ailment hit (doctors have yet to figure out what is going on. The last info. is that is was her gall bladder - which is now removed - so hum, guess that it can't be the gall bladder any more). So she had to call in reinforcements to get Halle to gymnastics. The boys were banned to the basement. (Although Chad was a great help with bringing water and heating pads.)
And to finish off Tuesday night, Halle fell down the stairs and head first into the wall. Thank goodness it was bed time.
With some drug induced sleep I woke up better today (except for the cold I am fighting) and so far we have no new injuries. Hopefully we can keep being healthy and well - after all I have a dinner party to put on for 30 members of the Caviness family this weekend whether we are well or not.

OK, give me an assignment for the Caviness family party. Do you want me to take the kids or can i come over and help you clean in the evening when Jason is home. Don't say you are fine or don't need any help. I know you need it so put me to work.
So is the big farewell on Sunday? I can't take it!
I was just getting ready to post the same thing as Andrea! I'm here for whatever you need.
Thank you Andrea and Carolyn - I will let you know if I need help! Right now, I am still just trying to get through today and not think too much about Saturday as of yet (I figure ignorance/procrastion - same difference - is bliss.)
Um, did the high school student give the name of the biter?
Pass on the recipes you have planned for Saturday and I'll do some cooking. I'll do some babysitting too!
Oh my! It's been a rough week for you. Yeeouch!
Are your in-laws leaving? They will surely be missed around town.
My goodness, what a week you have had? It might be a good idea to stay in-doors for a few days for your own protection! :) I hope you are all feeling better soon and that next week is a little brighter.
