Sick, but not too long

Last Monday was my first Monday working in tax season. So it was a bit of a surprise when I got a call at 8:30 am to pick up Jackson from daycare. He was running a fever and just run-down. Our doctor visit didn't indicate anything specific, but it was obvious this poor boy needed some rest. This is what he looked like AFTER his afternoon nap. Poor buddy! On the plus side, since he was not his normal self (getting into his toys and running around) I was able to work for an hour or 2 from home :)


Chris stayed home with Jackson on Tuesday, and he was getting back to normal. We were relieved that his sickness wasn't anything more serious (at one point the doctor said maybe it is mono; I didn't want to have that for this last part of pregnancy!) By Wednesday, we were definitely back to being a normal toddler.
Our little library is closed for renovations so we went to the bigger one and maybe that one is a little better. There were little chairs set-up for kiddo reading areas and lots more books! Jackson really enjoys reading and found a gigantic book that he liked looking for pictures in.



Yes, needless to say one week later, our boy is feeling good. And yes, I am enjoying my last several weeks of being pregnant. This weekend I decided why not indulge in some brownies while I don't have to feel too guilty about it. Jackson enjoys helping me add ingredients and stir. Umm, and sample.


Yes, the "healthy" eating starts sometime after the next baby is born!
