This was taken around day 4 of his illness (so once the vomiting and fever were done). Noah seems to get sick a lot, but at least when he gets sick it's just runny noses and coughs. Clayton only gets sick every couple years, but when he goes down - he goes down HARD!!!
Also this week we had our first snow! I'm certainly not ready for it - I am not a fan of cold weather and there are very few things I like about snow, but ready or not - it's here! Sadly, because Clayton was so sick, he hasn't been able to go play in it. He keeps looking longingly out the window though and telling me he wants to make snow angles. Noah, however, was able to go out and play!
As you can see, it was a huge hit! This kid was in Heaven out in the snow! Speaking of Noah, we had one more delightful incident this week: Noah took his first trip to the ER! I came home from a meeting at 9:00 Tuesday night only to have Justin inform me that Noah had shoved a small bead up his nose. I swear - I don't know what to do with this kid - he's crazy!!! So off to the ER Justin and Noah went. Fortunately the bead was extracted very easily by Justin once they were in the hospital (yeah, the trip was totally unnecessary) and they were home by midnight! Noah is definitely my little troublemaker. If you turn your back on him for even one minute he might find a marker, hide a cup of milk under his bed (yeah, that was a pleasant smelling surprise), or shove something up his nose! He definitely keeps me on my toes!
So that was our week in a nutshell. I think Justin will back me up when I say I hope we don't have another week like this for a long, LONG time!!
