A Few Days Off

Jackson did end up at the doctor on Saturday morning. Tim took him so I wouldn't have to be around all of the sick children. Jackson has a sinus infection, and got a prescription.  He was pretty pitiful all Saturday.  It was a yucky rainy day, so it was nice to stay in the house. He took a 3 hour nap!

On Sunday I went to church for my last Sunday before Brooks gets here. Jackson stayed home with Tim. It was another yucky, rainy day, so we spent the rest of the day at home. However, we did have a mini disaster last night.  Jackson bit a hole in "poppy", his pacifier. We had to take it away and tell him it was broken. We figured it was a good time to get rid of it.  He finally fell asleep last night but tossed and turned.  Surprisingly he never called for poppy, but he was looking for it.

He woke up Monday in a horrible mood!  He wanted his poppy and tried looking everywhere for it. The rain finally stopped, so we went to pick strawberries. I wanted to get some pictures and was worried that if we didn't get to go today that I would not get to go with them.  Jackson loved it.  He liked walking in the mud and putting the strawberries in the basket.  He was upset when we left.

We ran a few errands, and he fell asleep in the car.  As soon as we got home, he woke up though.  He was not happy about not having poppy. He has felt better today, but has still been coughing a lot. He has passed his cough along to me. When the sun finally came out, we went outside.  Jackson went straight to the water that pools up on the driveway.  He loves playing and splashing in the water. Of course, he and his clothes were a muddy mess. He had a good time though.  We also went on a walk with our new stroller, and Jackson loves it!  He has lots of room to stretch out.  We have not been on a walk like that in a long time!
