And on the third day of Valentine's week...

Today was the second day straight of having all three kids home sick. Up until this evening, they were all feeling pretty decent except for the horrible coughs and runny noses, but tonight Evelyn has a fever and is probably the crankiest I have ever seen her. It doesn't bode well for a good nights sleep for any of us!

It was a fairly nice day outside and we were going stir crazy so we decided on a little walk around the block. You are probably all getting tired of seeing my kids everyday wandering around in the same jackets and with the same looks on their faces... but hopefully soon we can bust out some spring jackets (ooooh, spring jackets, haven't bought any yet!)

Puckering up for sister smoochies.

They were all holding hands here. A short moment of three-way cooperation that I had to document.

And... on the third day of Valentine's week, my true love gave to me....
a pair of Guess jeans and two Billabong hoodies (and yes, I did just sing that in my head to the tune of the 12 days of Christmas).

It is possible that I am too old for these jeans. Let me know, m'kay? I don't want to be the mom wearing purposely ripped jeans that people snicker at behind her back. For the record, one time when I was a teenager and faded jeans were in style, I wore a pair so worn in, they were almost white. At some point during the day, I wondered why my butt felt wet, so I gave it a quick, discreet pat down, only to realize that the jeans were ripped right under each cheek. Big time. It wasn't wet I felt, it was the cold air. Makes me a bit nervous of these purposely ripped pairs. Do they still maintain their structural integrity after being treated? I guess I will find out!
