Pictureless Post

We have all been sick here at the Agbeke house. It started with Cephas, he gave it to me, then Cara got it, then Cephas got it back. At one point I thought Cara might have Pink Eye and actually broke down and brought her to the doctor. I don't want to jinx us, but I am thinking that we are getting to the end of it.

This weekend, we helped my sister and her family move into their new apartment in Fort Mill. I don't think I have ever worked that much in my life. Saturday night, I couldn't fall asleep until 3am and during all of that awake time, I went through all of my belongings in my head and decided what I could get rid of.

Today is a snow day, school and work are both closed, but since I work when the office is closed, I am actually working today.

Cara is getting more picky about her food. She used to never reject anything, but now will spit things out when she doesn't want to eat them. Any suggestions on how I should handle this? What I have been doing is when she does this, I will stop feeding her and then offer her the same food again a few minutes later. Sometimes that works and she will go ahead and eat it. She mostly spits out vegetables (like her mother) and will eat most fruist without complaint.

On Friday I took Ethan (my nephew) for a few hours so my sister could get a few things done. Like a good aunt, I took him for his first Happy Meal at McDonalds. He liked the food, but was not too excied about the Sprite, I think the carbonation was too much for him. Also, once he saw the peas that Cara were eating, he wanted those more than the chicken nuggets. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures because it was my first outing with too kids. I was lucky to just get both of them inside and fed.
