One Sick Weekend

Liam became sick on Friday afternoon and by the evening he was out-in-out miserable!!! The poor guy was so congested he couldn't breathe while laying down, so the two of us spent the majority of the night cuddling in the glider. Even though I didn't get much sleep, it was heartwarming to be able to get my fill of snuggle time with Liam.

Saturday he was just as congested, so we went on a long walk in the afternoon. After dinner, when it's usually crazy play time, I decided to take Liam for a drive to drop off Grandpa Mike's (garage sale) present (Happy Almost Father's Day). This plan allowed for some peaceful time for Liam, for him to sit upright in the car, the bench (and Blue Moon) to be delivered, and for Daddy to have the opportunity to 'rough play' with the two healthy boys.

Some pictures from our little adventure...





























Seriously, the boy doesn't look sick at all... I sure wish I looked like him when I wasn't feeling well!!!

We were wishfully thinking that Aidan and Connor wouldn't get the bug, but we found out around 1:00am on Sunday morning that was not going to happen, with both Connor and Aidan having similar symptoms as Liam did the previous evening. No matter how hard we try to separate the sick one from the other two, it seems to be inevitable... when one gets it, they all get it.

As the boys never got colds that didn't turn into ear infections, we are crossing all of our fingers and toes that their "ear tube" surgeries will pay off. So far so good...
