Sick Days

Well, I’m starting to dread the month of February…it seems to always be the time of year that we have a somewhat serious virus in our house. This year is no exception, and with 6 of us now, it’s taken 9 long days so far for it to cycle through everyone in our house. Even Enoch got it, though thankfully not the vomiting part. Anyways, we’re all on the mend now, and I’m thankful it wasn’t worse(no prolonged scary fevers)…here’s a few pictures that I remembered to take between washing and rewashing EVERYTHING and trying to help the kiddos feel better. Thanks Grandpa C. for the ice-cream bars…we just finished them today — they brought a smile to little faces, when nothing else would, and provided some much needed calories. 
Poor little man…this is so much the opposite of his normally energetic and animated self.
Nothing like a loving little dog to help you feel better.
Painting…this was last night…an alternative to the many movies they’ve been watching this week.

We pulled out one of Esther’s birthday presents this morning…a paint-your-own tea set. It is super cute and I had a little bit of a hard time letting them paint whatever they wanted on it. I’m glad I gave them free rein though – they were very pleased with the results…that’s all that matters, right?

Every one of David’s creations had red on them very prominently with splashes of other colors.

Finishing the teapot, which actually turned out kinda’ neat, I thought.
