We are spending tonight in our pajamas with the boys. We have been as productive as planned this week. Brooks has been sick. In fact I had to take him to the kids urgent care on Sunday. He was running a fever and breathing rapidly. After spending two hours there, checking his vital signs numerous times, checking for flu and RSV (both were negative thank goodness), we got a big dose of Motrin and were told he has a virus that mimics the flu. He didn't get any antibiotics. His temp was 103.7 there, so he really felt terrible. That will be a fun bill to get in a few weeks.
We have been staying at home. Brooks is better but still has a nasty nose. Jackson ran fever for a day, and now I have a nasty cold. The boys have had a lot of time to play with their new toys. I know I will wish for this time back next week. We started putting away Christmas stuff today and hopefully will finish tomorrow.
It has been really cold and rainy, but we did manage one bike ride. Both boys wore their helmets. Jackson rode his bike. Well, he sat on it with his feet on the pedals, and Tim pushed him. He said he would pedal later.
We have had a great year full of lots of excitement. Hopefully we will have less excitement next year concerning things around the house. The limb hitting the power line was exciting enough earlier this week. I am hoping to spend more meaningful time as a family.
