The whole family has been sick for almost three weeks and I’ve got to tell you that I’m sick of being sick and I’m sick of The Kids being sick. I won’t bore you with the details but if you friend me on Facebook, you’re heard all about my green phlegm and hacking. Of sorry. I wasn’t going to mention that. Funny thing, for fun, I looked at what I posted this time last year and it appears that not much has changed…

Artemis is still loving school and Max was supposed to go today but he has this messy eye infection that he got from his disgusting chest infection and we don’t want to infect the whole school. Oh, sorry again.

In the blogging world, we’ve been busy. Tweeting here and posting there. If you don’t follow me on Twitter, you can find me @zoojourneys. Pop over and send me a tweet. I love to engage.

We shared about how kids REALLY communicate in Mexico and got locked INSIDE our house. Yes, inside. Don’t try this at home. It’s not for the faint of heart. Did I mention that my lips have been dry for several days?

And, after almost two years (less three weeks), we will soon be in the possession of a new tablet. Well, The Kids will be in the possession of a new tablet and I will have my new (to me) Samsung Galaxy 3 Smartphone back that Cathy Canton gave me.

Speaking of which, in case you need a new tablet, smartphone, telescope or one of the other items on Staples Latest Gift Guides, you should enter our latest Staples Canada giveaway!

And, if you have kids, watch for this weeks giveaway for a four pack of tickets to a Backyardigan show!?
