Sick of Being Sick

It was back to the daily grind this week for all of us. I didn't have to go back to work until Wednesday, so I soaked up the last few days with John Thomas. We mostly hung out around the house and enjoyed the relatively mild temperatures (mid-50s). I forgot how much he loves being outdoors. I think this Spring and Summer we'll be spending most of our spare time hanging out with Mother Nature.
I guess I shouldn't have been so surprised that John Thomas ended up sick again after his first week back at daycare. Everyone told me that it was going to happen, but I loathe the fact that he has to catch all these new germs. At least it happened on Friday, so we had all weekend to nurse him back to health. He must be a tough little boy, because even when he's ill he wants to laugh and play. If he hadn't been "tossing his cookies," I wouldn't have even known he didn't feel well. On a different note, school went well and I think I've got some really great kids this semester.

I know this may not be his cutest picture ever, but he was laughing so hard it was cracking me up. Hopefully he will continue to find momma and daddy so amusing for years to come.

So the hat may be a little Elmer Fuddish, but he looks so darn cute, I couldn't resist. Hopefully for JT's nine month birthday next week, we'll all be feeling better than ever.
