Sickly Sweet.

Okay, isn't it Spring?  Shouldn't nicer weather be coming our way... and maybe, just maybe, fewer-to-no more colds?  It seems like my family was just on the mend, then BAM.  Here we are in sick-town again, myself included.  So, if you've been wondering where I've been and why my blog has been pretty stagnate the past few days week or so... you now know why.

In other news - have you tried chocolate chip cookies with sprinkles on top?  Thanks for the suggestion, Kingston.

Books, Cars, and One Sick Boy.

Last Thursday, the hubs came home early from work with a stomach bug.  We did our best to keep our distance from him... but Kingston ended up catching the same thing.  The past day and a half we have been working on lots of laundry, watching lots of cartoons, reading piles of books, taking a few baths, drinking cups of water and apple juice, and just hoping our sweet big boy would start to feel better soon.  

When he pulled out his cars and started lining them about around lunch time today, I began to think he just might be pulling through.  

My new wish?  That our house is too squeaky clean to carry that darn bug around anymore and no one else gets sick in our household.  We'll see. 

... Two babies in a tub.

Happy pictures?  Yes and no.  Both boys are down and out with pretty strong colds right now... but seem to be semi-happy during the day.  The coughing fits for Cole and fever for Kingston only seem to happen at night/bedtime... which makes for a long, long day.  And now I seem to have a smaller version of what they have, with a pretty rough sore throat.  So, we're laying low today.  These two will probably have a couple baths throughout the day - hot steam does each of them some good (and maybe this momma too).
