Cold Season

I have the flu, or a bad cold, or something. A really sore throat, nausea, fatigue, no voice. LM has it too, or at least has a terribly cough... again. And so I called D home from work to take him and I rested all day. Which really means I got a little sleep, watched some bad TV and made some baby food in peace while they were out. (Aside - I have decided that shelling fresh peas to puree them is above and beyond the call of motherly duty - so not worth the effort. And he didn't even like them that much. Bah.) Pea frustration aside, it was heavenly - why do I have to be sick to enjoy that?

Now I'd really like to just chill in bed reading, but I can't because LM is asleep in there. And I'd really, really love to sleep in tomorrow. But I can't, for like, the next 7 years. And I know I'm going to be up in an hour or MAYBE two, with a crying baby, desperately hoping to get him back to sleep before he wakes up so much that he just won't.

He is lucky he is so darn cute.

    Oh my, who is that little boy in the photo! So cute, but looking waaay too old already. :) Sorry you're ill! Thus is motherhood: the first time you're grateful for a cold, because it affords you a brief lie-in at least!

    He is so adorable! I hope you all feel better soon - I have been there and done that the last two months, and it is horrible. At least he's not in daycare yet!!!
