Excuses

Yes, I know I haven't posted any Christmas pictures yet, but our Christmas celebrations were slightly delayed due to vomit. We finally celebrated with my family last night and I will post some pictures soon.


Due to many germs circulating through our house, the laundry amount increased and Lilly and Drew pitched in a little with chores. How helpful there are.

Dog Sitting


Someone that has helped me make a speedy recovery from my tummy ache was this doggie we call Gabby. She is very nice and lets me do whatever I want to her. Mommy and Daddy keep telling me that Gabby is just staying with us for a little while and that she is going to go back to live and her house soon. It is fun to have a "big doggie" live in our house. I don't think Frankie likes it as much as we all do.

Puke Protection

There is nothing like some old sheets and blankets(along with many bowls around the house) to be ready for the "no warning" puke. Today she seems to be feeling quite a bit better. So far so good for the rest of us.



Just a little creative art work in Todd and I's Christmas card from my brother. It's special, isn't it? Notice the detail of what was coming back up...like a goldfish and pretzel.

Merry Puking Christmas

If my daughter wasn't puking everywhere today, this is what she would be wearing for the Christmas Festivities. Unfortunately this dress will stay on the hanger today and the Petersen family is now confined to their house of germs. We are anticipating Drew's puke to be arriving soon and who knows about the Todd and myself. For me, I have to think its a sure thing being that Lilly's first puke was down the right side of my face, shoulder, and neck.




Seriously cute dress and Lilly would have done it justice. We hope your Christmas is healthier than ours this year!

Helping Daddy

Daddy has taken off work for two weeks. We love daddy home with us. It seems like there is a lot more wrestling than normal though which is great for us.


He started a project to help us clean up our toys better and to "make mommy happy"


*Yes, those are real sharp screws. We don't recommend your child running with them at any time.



My adorable little helpers working together

Rain Walk

We were very excited to finally get to use our rain gear. It has been raining which is so cool because it is like we are in the shower except we are outside.

Lilly did a lot of this.


My hood is getting in my line of vision mommy.



Follow the leader(big surprise that Lilly was in front of the pack)


I like you pretty jacket Lilly. Did you see my rain coat with all the things that "go" on it.


I hope we can do this more this week. According to the weather report, more rain is on the way.
