soaking up the vitamin D...teething

I have almost completely come out of my winter blues... and we are spending a ton of time outside playing and getting as much fresh air as possible. I have been keeping up with the laundry and the house for the last week and its been really refreshing. We plan on doing a yard sale and completely purging the garage when we get back from seeing Andys family in North and South Carolina this week. The kids have been too small to remember going to the beach... I can't wait to see there expressions when they look out at the worlds largest swimming pool and sandbox. ...hahaha giddy.

Lucy has been seriously teething this last week... I think she is trying to cut molars. Honestly I don't thing any level of natural medicine is going to bring relief to this poor girl. Daytime is not so bad...perphaps she is so busy keeping up with her older brother and sister. At night, well...thats a whole nother game. She wakes up screaming at 11:30 or midnight and will not go back to sleep until the late late hours of the morning. Last night I finally got her back to sleep around 5:30...the sun had already started to come up. I'd try and put her back in her bed earlier but the second she'd see the bed she'd start crying. Katy shares a room with her and I couldn't let lucy have her cry while katy was trying to sleep. So lucy slept with Andy and I. Some point after that Katy crawled in behind me... I became a mommy sandwich.

Anyway, needless to say more...I need some coffee. Off to the kitchen...I hope you all have a great day!!!
