This week was the perfect storm:

• 2 sick kids, who missed a combined 3 days of school
• Wonderful nanny who is also getting sick
• Daddy out of the country
• Mommy with 2 day trips to NY
• Holiday on Monday
• Grandma eye surgery
• Huge N poop in the bathtub

Well, the perfect storm would have probably included a snowstorm and power outage, too. So we are thankful that that didn't happen!

Daddy is back from his trip, and M seems to be a little better (despite coming home from school at 1:30 today), and A will hopefully be better tomorrow, and there are some Crumbs cupcakes in the house, and Lucky is clean (groomer came on Tuesday). So we're on the upswing!

N is sleeping pretty well (though he stirred as I typed that) and it's Oscar weekend, and all is well.

Thankful.
