We need to get out!

Morgan has been really sick this week, which doesn't happen very often. I'm grateful for that, but we have been in the house all week long and I'm going crazy. She has this really bad deep cough and running nose and very congested. I have to tell her so many times to keep away from the baby so I feel like I'm nagging her so much. I can't afford to have two sick kids and my husband sick. Oh, did I mention Chris has a really bad cold too.
Anyways this morning I was talking to my brother on the phone and feeding the baby when I hear this crash, bang, and crying. I called up to Morgan what is going on I walked up the stairs and Morgan is crying and rubbing her bum because it hurt. I found that my child was using our towel rack as the uneven bars to swing on it and the towel rack broke. Now this wasn't the first time she has tried to swing on the towel rack, but most of the time I caught her swinging on it. Now surprising I thought that I would be mad, but whats done is done. I asked Morgan why did you do this? Her answer was "I was just swinging on it."

I think Jayden looks a little like Chris in the photos you showed. So I have an idea of something you can get Morgan. Remember the mini tramp we had growing up? Well you can buy those with a bar you can attach to it to hang on to. Sort of like a parallel bar. I bet you could find one on Craig's List. We bought a mini tramp off Craig's List and the kids love it especially Kelsey and it helps get some energy out. It sounds like your daughter is taking right after you. Better get her a helmet and a mouth guard.

So I was at the gym last weekend doing some cardio and listening to my iPod. The song, "there's your trouble," by the dixie chicks came on and I couldn't help but think of you and how we used to sing that song all the time when we were in high school! :) I hope things are going well and your new addition is so cute!
