Sick little boys

We have 2 sick little guys at our house. :( Chase and Owen have had some intestinal issues (if you know what I mean) and have thrown up a couple times a week. This has not been a fun adventure for Jeff and I, as you can imagine. Jeff put it well when he said, "We knew it was going to happen sometime so we might as well deal with it now." So true. Owen has fared well-he seems to be acting normal and eating normal. Chase is eating about half of his normal amount and just isn't himself. He's very whiny and needs a lot of attention (like Daddy). This has made the cold winter days seem eternally long for me and I long for the days of summer when I can feel the wind in my hair, the sun on my face and watch the lawn grow . . . ahhhh. I haven't quite figured out why we have chosen to live in the tundra-seriously-there are so many warmer places to live. Basically anywhere else would be warmer. Oh well. We love our summers.

I noticed yesterday that both Chase and Owen respond to their names. I wondered if they would respond to the correct name-given they are always around the other when both names are spoken. They have also started to look for each other and don't stop looking until they see one another. This happens mostly after naps.
