Pro-D day yesturday helped us get back to ground zero after being away for most of the weekend. It was nice to hang out ALL day at the house with nowhere to go, fire roaring, kids playing, i got stuff done!
However, today Elliot is off....he has a wicked fever, has no qualms about being put back to bed or even being cuddled by me (which is huge since he normally only accepts cuddles from chris, or from me when i squeeze too tight for him to escape and i don't think that counts!!)
Poor little guy is never sick...but he is quite miserable today..hot, sad....awwww. Got him up awhile back for a cuddle in front of the fire to have some applesauce and some applejuice....he is keeping himself hydrated, which is awesome...but hasn't really eaten for a few days now.
I have to admit, and am trying to keep a perspective that i hope this is only a small flu or cold, and nothing more major like H1N1....but i have enjoyed the cuddles, the head on my shoulder as we walk, the ability to have gotten the flip books all up to date, been able to clean out my freezer and deepfreeze, re-stocked fire wood by the front door....all in the span of about 2 hours.
This morning, my new friend Aja and her daughter came with Elliot and i to Old Navy in Vic while Isaac was in school....both kids napped, we chatted, it was nice.....but Elliot needed to be carried around the store..it was that moment that i knew something was off since he normally prefers to run!!
So.....not much else to say...just figured i would check in....all is good here. Haircut at 5:30 and another potential face-off at Karate tonight. We'll see what happens.
