Sick Children... but Cute Children

I haven't posted for a while. I blame sickness- I feel like we had a week of good health and then we got sick again. However this time it wasn't the cold-type. Audrey got her first ever stomach bug that made her throw up. She spit up as a baby, and she got carsick once, but this is the first EVER sickness that has made her throw up. I really really really REALLY don't like throw-up. REALLY. Really. Really. Don't. At all. Anyway, so I got to kind of overcome this a little. Audrey kept saying her tummy hurt all day yesterday but she wasn't pooping or puking anything weirdly-like, until about 5. Ethan got it about 5am this morning. So far Ethan has had a little rougher time of it. Poor baby. But he did fall asleep on me in church yesterday.

I made these pancakes again for breakfast this morning. Audrey ate one and a half, which was great. Ethan ate a half, but it didn't stay down. Thomas and I LOVED them with whipped cream on top. Like, better than syrup. If you read this blog, then you know I have a syrup *thing*. This was way better! And WAY better. Oh. Go make some. Now. *sigh*

I also made these again... I seriously love this roll recipe. It is so lovely. And easy. I find the stickier the dough before you roll it out, the softer the roll. I also learned that if I spray the counter and my hands with non-stick spray, then sprinkle flour on the surface it doesn't stick so bad. Also sprinkling a little flour- not too much, or it can make your dough tougher- on top of the dough halves as you spread them into a circle helps a lot too.

Audrey is so cute. We had to watch Finding Nemo twice today- the second time she pulled it out I was like, "No, we already saw that one today" and she puts on her fake cry and hugs it to her and says "Please, Mommy- it's so beautiful" with fake cries in the word b-eau-ti-ful. I couldn't resist!






She had put all these guys to sleep in the windowsill- telling me "SHH!"
These kids won't hold still for a posed picture!
