Who's hungry?

Oh gee, it's me, Zach, Ben and Sarah! Ben and Sarah eat the food off their plates, our plates and practically the food out of our mouths! Well, they are both feeling better!
We are constantly amazed at how much they are eating! Ben mostly but Sarah too. He ate as much spaghetti as Zach did tonight, plus his beans! He wanted some spaghetti off my plate and ate all of it! Today for lunch he ate spaghettios, an egg sandwich (that Zach made for himself) and peaches and wanted more. Two hours before dinner he had two bowls of cereal and then gobbled his dinner! I find my mouth open more often than not these days! I am AMAZED at how much they are eating!
We'll see how much they grow in a month, we marked it on the wall today, shoulda done it last week when all this fun started, but today will do. (too bad that by marking their height on the wall Sarah thought it was our way of giving permission for wall art)
A few days after my last post they started feeling better and it has been SO NICE! I can't believe the difference! I really was beginning to question if anyone was going to survive! It seemed because they weren't feeling well and they were tired there were always tears and they just couldn't get along and play. Now, they play and tease and wrestle some and are having good times again! I am just relieved and enjoying myself watching them. They are too cute!

I'm glad they're feeling better. They probably will have a growth spurt soon, won't they?!

I just read your "I love being a Mom!" Ben is such a funny kid. I especially liked the cheerleader one. What an imagination!

I am glad that your kids are feeling better. Let me just tell you the eating never slows down Brady can out eat me any day. Good luck with your food bill :)

Glad they are feeling so much better! If your kids got Zach's height genes, just think how much growing they will do to catch up with him. :)
