The Week in Pictures

Our past week was highlighted (or low lighted...) by Josh's battle with Influenza A.  Monday he was home sick with a stomach ache, Tuesday he was flat on his back alllll day long with a nasty cough and Wednesday the doctor confirmed he had The Flu. Thankfully Tamiflu fixed him right tup and he's back to his normal active self by Sunday! 

Thank God Luke didn't get sick.  He was his happy go lucky self all week.
He's posing with our Lazy Susan -- or as Luke calls it the Merry Susan.  Daddy told us about how in China all of the meals had a huge lazy susan in the middle of each table so you could pass food to each other with a quick spin. Obviously we needed this in our house! 

Tuesday night Luke shoveled his head off.  I was doing the dishes and I mumbled under my breath "I'm going to have to do the darn snow blower tonight..." and before I was even done washing the dishes, Luke had bundled himself up and brought our shovels to the mud room. Hard to turn down that enthusiasm. 

Wednesday Luke made his first apple pie. He decided that since he didn't like pumpkin pie or pecan pie, we should try something he thought sounded delicious, apple pie.  I think it turned out pretty for our first ever try at a lattice crust. 

It's very clear how to win Luke's heart.  He loves to go to breakfast.  He loves to eat.  He loves to cook.
