Sick Days...

Following the big snow event, Reid started getting a sick. Nothing too horrible - just a lot of coughing and yuckiness in his chest. The usual for him.

School here was closed 2 full days last week for the snow, which did not affect Reid's preschool schedule, but when regular school opened 2 hours late on Wednesday that meant his school would not open at all. I was bummed but it turned out to be a good thing, since that is the day the sickness really set in. Thursday was the worst overall - we didn't leave the house the entire day, which is a major feat for us.

Reid's appetite was down for 4 or 5 days. I don't think he ate a single "real" meal the entire time. He's back to normal now, though.

Here's what we did do during our sick days...

This was on Thursday. He slept super late and we both stayed in pj's the majority of the day. Here he's just watching some TV in his winter hat. Why not?

Still in pj's... and yes, that's a potty seat on his head. You can tell he had perked up a little. :)

Two days later: Feeling much better, outside "measuring" something for Daddy. He loves to use the measuring tape. Take note of the fact that he is outside in shorts and a t-shirt not even a week after the big snow storm. Gee do you think the crazy weather would have contributed to his sickness? Gotta love a 5-inch snow and 80-degree weekend, all in the same week!
