Saturday is a special day

Today tyrned out to be pretty good. We started the morning with a pokehunt with my honey. Then i went down to moms house to help set up a baby shower i was co hosting for my friend janet. They shower went really well. I am super happy with how. The rainbow jello cups i made turned out. After the shower elinir and i went out to lunch together. When we got home i had a headach so elinor offered to watch the boys while i took a nap. Jon was out with dad so it was nice to have my amazing helper around. After my nap i took elinor out to see fantastic beasts in the $1 theater. It was a good day.

Well, that happened.

Today didnt go quite as planned. Jon had a dentist appointment this morning so he got to sleeep in. The kids woke me up at 6:20 to sign their folders and beg me to take them to muffins with mom at the school. Wes has been out the last 2 days sick and they have been really well behaved this week so i said i would go. That means they didnt have to ride the bus. I got dressed and took them down to the school. We hadn't been there more than 2 min when wes started to complain tha he was dizzy and he couldn't breath. I thought he might be having an asthma attack so i told him to try to breath and after we had our muffins i would take him home and give him a breathing treatment thwn bring him back. He laid his head on the table and tried to calm himself while elinor and i atw. Then it was time to go and i told him to stand up. He did, then promply threw up all over the cafeteria floor. Yuck. Another mom got the janitor, and i sent elinor to her class and half carried wes oht if the school. We got part way downn the hall befor he threw up again. Luckily for us and the custodial staff he made it to a trash can this time. The principal came by just then and got us a trash bag to bring with us in the car. We got home and wes collapsed on the couch and pretty much didnt move the rest of the day. He threw up several more times and slept all afternoon. Jon went to his debtist appointment and i played with james and made some very labor intensive rainbow jello cups for the babyshower i am helping to throw tomorrow. When it was time to go to gym pics, i took wes down to nanas. Grandpa is taking the other two kids to see a movie this afternoon and poor wes is so sick he doesnt even care!  Now i am at the last day of gym pics in huntsville. Next week i am headed to madison gym but i uave to get through the weekend first!

Thursday

Today was another "sick" day for wes. He was feeling fine but he had to be on antibiotics for 24 hours befor going back to school so he got to stay home another day. He and james wtched tv and played while i got my editing done from yesterday's photoshoot. Then we went down to nanas house to play. Wes stayed at nanas while mom james and i went on a very cold walk on the greenway. James had lits of fun kicking gumballs and throwing rocks and sticks. Mom and i had fun catching pokemon. After our walk we went back home and worked on some of our sewing projects. Then it was time to get ready for more gym pics. I left the boys with mom and printed and cut more fliers and got my camera gear in order. Now i am hanging out at the gym taking pics. Today is a slow day at the gym so there is lots if down time. Just 25 more min and i get to head home.

Poor sick boy

Wesley got sent home from school yesterday. I was worried he had the flu as it is going around. So today when he started throwing up i got really worried. We got him a dr appointment and turned out he didnt have the  flu, he has strep again. Poor boy. He has a terrible headache and slept most of the day. James and i were forced to hang out at home all day so we played turtle tower, throw the turtles and other toddler games. Jon came home early from work since mom had appointments this afternoon and couldnt watch the kids. Now i have abandoned him to his fate as mr. Mom and i get to do gym pics for the next 4 hours.

Good bye grandma

Today we had to say goodbye to grandma.  I spent most of the morning working on yesterdays gym pics. I finished just in time for us to take james to his music class. Grandma got to come with us and watch james do his class.  After class grandma took us to lunch then it was time to head to the airport. While we were at lunch i got a call from the school that wes was sick and i had to come pick him up. So we went to the school and got him, dropped him off with nana and went to the airport. Grandma got off safely so it was back to nanas house to put james down and then get ready to go back to the gym. It was a good day at work and i am glad to be home. I got all the pics posted and now i get a few min to relax befor bed.

Busy day

Is it bedtime yet? Today was busy. Took the boys to their well kid visits, took wes to school. Played with james, got ready for gymnastics pics this afternoon. Went grocery shopping, had lunch with jon, put baby down for nap, delivered fliers to madison gymnastics,  set up pics at huntsville gymnastics, took gym pics for 4 hours, went to derby practice and finally home where i downloaded the days pictures to get ready to edit tomorrow. Is it bed time yet?

One more birthday.

Today was Wesley's 3rd and final birthday of the year. At dinner time nana made him dinner as requested. Schnitzel, fruit salad (no apples), edamame, and fresh bread. It was excellent. After dinner he got o
To open his presents from nana and grandpa and uncle mark. He was thrilled to get some play swords, board games, his own battle bots and especially glad to unwrap 4 bags of Doritos!  It was a nice final party for my big boy. No to ready myself mentally for the coming weeks. It is gymnastics picture time!
