That's right- my children are no longer possessed by horrible sickness! (We all 4 had colds with various symptoms and poor Luke had ulcers in his mouth and is probably working on some teeth, too) They are themselves again! I could tell the second I got up- Rebekah and Josh were singing in the kitchen (I'm so excited...duh duh duh duh duh duh...I just can't hide it...) and Luke did his usual (since Christmas) sleep in past 8am. He woke up chipper, too! I was sooo excited and sang, too. :) Rebekah was actually in rare form. She was hilarious- "Hey, guys- let's sing!" And as I was getting her dressed, "That's a great idea, Mom. Let's wear this- it matches. That's awesome." "Keep doing that." (referring to me hugging her).
Awesome news- Buddy guzzled some MILK from a sippy cup- granted I had to hold it for him, but this is great news!
We also got to pick up our friend, Lily for the morning- her week-old baby brother isn't letting her mama (Kate) get any sleep, so we happily stepped in to at least take one off her hands. Rebekah chatted about how she was excited to share with Lily and how Lily could sit in her car seat and have her seat in the stroller...The girls were so excited to play together- I took all 3 kids to the HUB- it's funny b/c Lily has the same coloring as my 2, so having 2 1/2 yr old, a 2 yr old, and an 11-month old must have made people wonder! The girls had a blast running up and down the ramp and their squeals led me to take them outside (BEAUTIFUL and WARM!!!!!!!) to play on "daddy's campus." Once again, we all had a blast and Luke was back to his usual love to watch self. Praise the Lord.
This was from our date night last Wednesday- we went to "Soul"- sorry for the poor lighting, but it is a renovated church that has been turn into a restaurant. Afterwards we went to the ONLY coffee shop open past 5 or 6pm.
Evidently Mickie was cold.
Luke "standing"- I put him there but he stayed for a while. :) (Notice that he loves to play with his bottom lip- he is doing it in this picture)
Sweet Rebekah was SURE he needed help- adorable!
Rebekah put on this bib and asked if we could take a picture of "Bekah in a bib!"
She also snuggled up with Daddy...very sweet.

Oh dear friend, I am so glad that life is getting back to normal! R's verbal skills, well what can I say, she is her mama's girl. That is some long exchanges! Before you know it that young man will be walking away from that couch. Love you guys to pieces! Kisses from the Sterners.

So glad to hear things are normal there again! Sicknesses are awful! Way to go Luke on the milk! Elizabeth has gone down from 5 to 3 bottles. She is taking her 7:00, 3:00, and 6:30 one. I think the 3:00 One will go next!

Yay! Been praying for you, for healing, for energy, for all of it. Glad they are feeling better :):)
Thank you for the kind words friend! I do still love the girl and mourn that I don't know Luke like that yet! Have you gotten a package yet? I am really worried! It was sent more than 3 weeks ago, I wanted it to be a surprise, but it should be there by now!!!
Luke had got the greatest cheeks...what dimples!
