Days of November

Both the boys in our house have been sick this past week, so it's made for a long week for all of us.  Randy toughed it out and worked everyday, but it definitely took its' toll on him.  It's likely Zachary had the same virus as Randy or it's also possible that his teeth or ears may have been bothering him.  None the less, he was in rare form for the last several days.  A couple sleepless nights, lots of crying and whining, and many, many hugs and kisses.  As of today, he seems to be on the mend so we're thankful for good health in our home.

Just a few photos and video from the week.  We've watched our fair share of cartoons the past few days as Zach didn't have much energy to play.  Helaina has been a super big sister.  Helping Zachary and trying to keep him comfortable.  She definitely has Randy's quick wit and sense of humor.  She's been quite the comedian this week too.  Randomly, we heard her telling Zach while they were playing, "Nobody likes big government.  Just suck it up."  Too much politics for this 3 year old!

                                                   

Any guesses as to when thumb sucking will cease in our house? So glad Zachary just needs his "blankies" to sleep. 

When all else fails, turn on the vacuum.  It will keep Zach busy for quite awhile.  He gets upset when I try to do it for him, and quite surprisingly, he does a good job of actually "cleaning."  I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. 

This is Zach's second session of music class.  Helaina took the class when she was his age and now it's Zach's turn to have music fun with Miss Connie.
