Cody and Noah at Monster Jam with Big Foot the Monster Truck! Noah was WAY excited, if you can't tell! 
This past week has been very busy at the Simpsons' house. The kids have been battling a fever, cough, and runny nose on the side. Cody's dad had bought tickets to the Monster Jam at the Convocation center in Jonesboro about 2 or 3 weeks ago, and even though the boys had been to the doctor on Monday by Friday they were still not completely better! Elijah was especially sick. He has asthma and colds always hit him worse than the other two. He ran a fever for 3 or 4 days. We knew Friday night that Elijah wouldn't be able to go to Monster Jam, but Noah shouldn't have to miss out, so we went to Jonesboro which is a good 3 hour drive from our house in Morrilton and we were armed with kleenex, and lots of medicine ( I looked as though I had a small pharmacy in my bag!). Noah, Cody and I headed to the Convo and left Elijah in Mimi's arms and Ellie Kate (reluctantly) with Papaw. Noah had so much fun. He got a glow in the dark necklace, checkered flag, and some of the driver's autographs. After Monster Jam was over we had to head to Casscoe so that Cody could make it to the VBS Seminar at Olive Branch in Pine Bluff. Needless to say since it was 9:00-11:00 it was a quiet ride there. Elijah slept with Nanny and Noah slept with Pop. Elijah's fever was very high friday night and into Saturday morning.
By Saturday morning Elijah was feeling just a teeny bit better, but still had fever. Between Antibiotics, cough medicine, and tylenol the poor kid was getting fed up with medicine, and I was too! Sunday I stayed home with Elijah and Ellie Kate and Cody came in with Great news from Men's Meeting. I'll post more about that Later this week if It goes well!
