It's been a while since the last blog. A full week in fact. In that time, Em's gotten sick three times, and the rest of us twice. We just kept taking turns (sometimes in twos and threes) feeling like death-warmed-over. But, thankfully, we've been fine for more than 24 hours and all of us seem to be in the clear. Whew!
Cooper seemed to have the most dramatic comebacks post-illness. He'd go from flopping around like a dying fish and whining and napping to chasing the dog and emptying drawers in a matter of minutes, which always threw me. But when you look over from the 'couch of misery' and see this little face, you know at least he's not going to be one to join you anytime soon!
See Mom, I emptied all the mending for you... onto that nice dirty floor that no one has been well enough to clean in like days!
One thing, no matter how crumby Todd and I were feeling that we throughly enjoyed was how snuggly and cuddly the kids became. Em wasn't so much because she just wanted her space, her blanket and her "Abby Cadabby movie" but I can't think of another time when a toddler (especially one in MY house) would slow down enough to catch this precious moment...
My boys... *sigh*

I know exactly what you mean. Although MAK prefers her dad to me when she is sick...I am raising the boy differently...he will be mine...at least for a little while longer!
So glad that everyone at your house is feeling better!
Precious picture ... one that you really need to print/frame.
