Refresh Your Nest Friday #16


Touche, 2012.

I didn't mean to offend you with my comments in last week's post, really.  You can go ahead and start being awesome now, okay?  Since 2012 is coming in like a lion, I'm hoping it leaves like a lamb.

A really nice, quiet lamb that loves to snuggle and doesn't get pneumonia.

We're fine, really we are {and THANK YOU for the comments and emails, they mean so much even if I haven't had a chance to respond yet} but we've had another curve ball this week.  Noodle's teetering on the edge of pneumonia at the same time my husband had a surprise business trip to the west coast.

Poor Noodle's had a fever since Sunday.  According to the doctor, if she isn't better by tomorrow it's chest x-ray time.  JOY.

Brother is looking awfully suspicious, too.  Stage 5 clinger this week, so wondering if he's next?

On that note, don't hate me, I wasn't able to visit all the links last week or feature them today.  But OH WOW, the thumbnail photos look amazing so I can't wait!

Which means that as long as Bee doesn't get sick, I'll do a double feature next week with two weeks worth of loveliness.  I'm really focusing on my family this year {not that I haven't in the past, but you know what I mean} so I thank you for understanding I need to snuggle and don't have a free hand for typing much today.

But PLEASE, link up this week!  As always, I love to see what you've been featuring on your blogs and I'm pretty sure it will cheer Noodle up too.

Here we go for this week, with the typical guidelines:

1. Link to the specific post, not just your blog's home page.

2. Including a link back to this party at the end of your post allows others to play along or scout out inspiration for themselves.  You would be even more amazing if you posted the Refresh My Nest button-- I've even made it super easy, just grab the code below the button and paste it in the HTML section of your post.

3.  An active linky is a happy linky.  PLEASE visit one or more links that interest you so that everyone gets some comments and traffic.  There's nothing more discouraging than taking time to link up and no one visits.

Love you guys.  Ready, set, link!
