Sick Day

Baby Boy stayed home sick from school recently.

He had a fever, stuffy nose, and cough. He was miserable, but I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. He wasn't crabby, argumentative, or sassy - just snuggly and clingy for Mom. He insisted I not leave his side, even for a second, so other than quick trips to the kitchen for food and medicine, we sat parked in Mommy and Daddy's bed, sleeping and watching Oswald DVDs on the portable DVD player we bought for our KC trip. I was a smidge bummed when he started feeling better again and wanted be up and about, but I'm sure Daddy was glad that he didn't have to try and get another decent night's sleep on Sam's twin-sized bed.

Private Pool

The big kids have gone back to school leaving the pool empty most days.  And on this particular day it was completely empty almost the whole time we were there.  As soon as we pulled up and I saw that no one else was there, we scooted back home to grab the camera for some end-of-summer pics.  It was fun taking some photos of Sam swimming without having to worry about kids splashing and getting in our shots!
