Getting by

I'm sick today. You are not supposed to get sick when you have little children. You just can't. But I am sick today. I don't have the energy to move. Erin didn't bring her kids today because we were nice enough to get them sick yesterday! And thank God. I did as little as possible. But hey, the kids ate, napped and played. They were alive and healthy (albeit starving) when their father got home, so that's something.

Thank God for Taishauna...she is a lifesaver!

Johnley is doing well. He is understanding more and more, and that is both good and bad! But the crying at bedtime is less, and he lets me comfort him and tuck him in. He is eating really well and even actually helping to clean up sometimes. He and Sammy do best together in the evening. All day they sort of play next to each other, rather than with each other. But in the hours before bedtime, when they get a little crazy, they really connect! You can catch them chasing and tackling each other with lots of giggling thrown in. Its a site to see.



Here is the whole gang last night before bed (only half of them sleep here!)

Johnley is constantly discovering new and amazing things. Tonight it is a spiderman umbrella (he has taken to calling all superheros Spiderman, tho this one actually is). He has been walking around with it for an hour. Christmas is going to be so easy with him!

I am sorry you are sick!

However, the kids are adorable:) And if you must choose a single superhero, Spiderman is the appropriate best alternative.
