April Fool's

If you've read our blog in the past, you know we have issues with Emily and our toothbrushes which you can read about here. Well, unfortunately we haven't resolved those issues. I was putting Izzy and Claire to bed the other night when Em came in with my toothbrush and asked if it was mine. She was in a good mood and sometimes likes to be helpful and set out my toothbrush with toothpaste on it, so I didn't think anything about it until Aaron came home from work and when brushing his teeth before bed asked, "Why is my toothbrush all orange?"  I laughed and told him of the earlier occurrence and then when he looked at mine and told me it was orange too, I didn't think it was so funny anymore.We threw our toothbrushes away and only had one spare on hand that we shared. The next morning Aaron had left already when Em was getting ready and I asked her what she had done to our toothbrushes.

Emily: "It was just a joke. April Fools!"
Me:    "Um Em, it's not April Fools and why are our toothbrushes orange?"
Emily:  "Because I was just playing a trick and so I put them in your makeup."
Me:     "Well it wasn't very funny and maybe you should have saved it for April Fools."
Emily:  "Well if I did it on April Fool's then you would expect me to do something, I did it now so you wouldn't expect anything."

Clever Em. Still not funny.

Christmas in Germany

Christmas 2016 Bernkastel-Kues Christmas morning Our Christmas was a little different this year, or I guess a lot different because of being in a different country and far away from the family and friends we love. We celebrated about a week and a half early because Emily went to spend Christmas with her other family and Aaron had to work on Christmas. Emily left the day after the girls' last day of school, so when they came home from school we opened presents from each other and then by popular vote spent the rest of the night eating pizza and bowling at the bowling alley on base. The next day we woke up early to deliver Em to the airport. We were able to hit a couple of Christmas Markets in the beginning weeks of December with her and then we did a couple after she left. We thought it was kind of fun how each Christmas Market has their own mug that you can collect, so the collecting motivated Aaron a little more to hit multiple markets rather than to just stay ho...

6 Week Flu

SYMPTONS: FREQUENT VOMITING, EXCESSIVE FATIGUE, NAUSEA, LACK OF MOTIVATION SIDE EFFECTS: HOUSE TURNS INTO A PIG PEN, FAMILY MEMBERS WEAR DIRTY UNDERWEAR FOR SEVERAL DAYS, MEMBERS OF YOUR FAMILY ARE ACCUSED OF HAVING EATING DISORDERS FROM MALNUTRITION, YOUR BED & COUCH HAVE A PERMANENT INDENT, AND THE CARPET FROM HERE TO THE BATHROOM HAVE A WELL WORN PATH, PEOPLE THINK YOU HAVE FALLEN OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH My friend recently told me there's a chance she "might" be pregnant. When I asked what might meant, she told me it could just be the flu. I laughed at her until I started experiencing the same symptoms. Even after a positive pregnancy test I worried that it might be all in my head. Thank heavens for a trip to the doctor, he confirmed that: WE ARE HAVING BABY NUMBER 2 !!!!!! I apologize to any of you who have asked recently when we are having more kids or why I am sick, and I didn't give you a straight answer . . . well now you know!
