We did NOT fall off the planet... I promise!

I'm totally slacking off in the blog department. I have no idea why. I guess just plain laziness.
My last post was after our vacation so lets see what has happened since??.....


SICK SICK AND MORE SICKIES!
Seriously we have been sick since January. It is SO frustrating!
After the kids got better from having the flu Matthew got a sinus infection twice!!
Kourtney has had at least 3 really bad diaper rashes, pink eye, and a double ear infection.
Just last week Matthew had the stomach flu, Berto had laryngitis, I got the stomach flu and now I have a sore throat!! Will it ever end!?
Hopefully this really ridiculous hot weather will kill everything and we can be well.





We had our first MAJOR accident in our house. Matthew fell and hit his head on his window sill and split his forehead open. Poor kid. I've never seen blood ooze like that sucker did. Only in movies. SO gross. It was a really deep cut. All the way to his skull. He had to get 3 stitches. One in the lower layer of skin and 2 on the outer layer. He did so good! They brought 3 nurses and the PA in for the stitches just in case he needed to be held down and they really only needed one to hold his head still. He had an entire audience in absolute aww in how good he did. 3 nurses, one fire fighter(observing), the PA, me, and my mom. He got 2 stickers, a popsicle, and a really cool toy for doing so awesome.
It's been a month since that happened and the stitches have dissolved and he just has a really clean cut pink line on the right side of his forehead. Hopefully it'll fade with time and we won't be able to notice.






WE MOVED!
AGAIN!
haha we are always moving it seems. One day we will stay put.
We moved down the street into another apartment. Its a little bigger than the one we were in and much much nicer. No rude neighbors as of yet and no nasty cigarette or weed smells! Its so wonderful. We have a garage so the car will stay cooler this summer.
overall we're pretty happy here. We also have a mini park right out our front door so thats nice on days when its not too hot. (which are becoming few and far between)

Matthew is almost done with preschool this year. His last day is May 22. They are having a field trip to the sea life aquarium. I'm actually pretty excited about this simply because I've never been and they're paying :)
He has improved so much since October when he first started in the program. I wish they would have the program throughout the summer especially for kids like Matthew who need the extra help.

Kourtney is her cute self. Always happy especially when she has food. My little fatty :)
She is growing like a weed. We're trying to get her to start saying words but she is stubborn and doesn't want anything to do with it. She does know how to throw things in the trash which we learned yesterday. Grandma changed her diaper and told her to throw it away and she walked right to the trash can. She just needed a little help putting it in.



I had a nice Mother's Day as well. Got some really pretty flowers and some really cute creations from Matthew that he made at school. Made me feel extra special. :)



Well I think thats all for now. Nothing interesting to tell. Til next time...
