A daily dose of Ellie, Calvin, or both!

Sick day

Ellie had a fever and difficulty seeping overnight. She woke up with a fever and complained she was dizzy and her tummy hurt. So she's home today.



She is responding to Tylenol and has no other complaints. She does have a cough. It's definitely a watch and see what happens.

She's currently watching Toy Story. But I did make her finish her homework and do 1st grade homework.

Seriously?!?

Nick is in Chicago until Thursday. Calvin is not 100% (neither is E but she is closer to 90% than Calvin is).

So when Cal started fussing and crying at 5:00am I knew it wasn't just his usual poop. He was really fussy and he has actually cried so much because of not feeling well, teeth erupting, and jealousy of wanting to play with the big kids, not to mention only one parent in the house that his voice is a little hoarse. He also has a cough and we've had to use the nebulizer quite a bit. And so at 5:01am I went to him. I tried co


sleeping, feeding him, cuddling, everything I could think of at that hour and he was still fussy.

Ugh.

And of course I'm not 100%... And then I got a call from daycare that he fell twice and bumped his head...poor thing, I went and visited him at lunch. He lost it when I had to go, which he has never done...

But after sown FaceTime with Nick, Cindy, Mike, and Tristan, they went to bed early. And I am going to go to bed early too.

Sad eyes

The little man has had some sad eyes lately, and it's not just because his daddy has gone to Chicago for opening day without him.

Nor was it because his sister wouldn't let him into her room this morning.






No the little man hasn't been feeling too well. We had to break out the nebulizer and even took it to daycare so that they could give him a treatment during the day.

But he was pretty excited about breakfast burritos at school.

I know that kid!

Today I was walking out of daycare and noticed a picture of Calvin in their collection of, look how cute these kids are and how much fun they have at school, pictures.



It's like he's photo bombing his own picture and sticking out his tongue while doing it.

Calvin's dinner

Tonight Calvin had cheddar cheese, a ritz cracker, half a strawberries, black olives, green olives and sardines. I started with the green olives. Watching a baby eat a green olive is as exciting as you think it would be. He was happy as a clam. Hmm...clams, I wonder how he would feel about those?




















When I told E what he had for dinner, she said, "wow that's a lot of food!" Not the reaction one would expect. It was definitely a we are awesome parents. My kid eats snails, alligator and thinks feeding sardines and olives to her brother is cool.

As a side note today was my 10-year anniversary at work.
