This is a video that was taken last weekend of JSL and JL together. The little guy looks like he is having some spasms, but alas he is trying to get JL to do something to him that he found hilarious.

As the little guy said at the end – Buh-bye!
Now that everyone is as healthy as we have been in months (I will not dare to say we are healthy – that would be bad news), it is time to play some catch up. Last week NHL was home sick from school and I then had what he was ill with, so blogging took a back seat.
***Note to self: Be sure to work on the new rules of sharing with NHL. There are limits that are acceptable – flu is not included!
Last week I blogged, but I did not write as much as I have in the past since I was so exhausted at the end of the day. Thankfully I had the energy to take photos. Here are some highlights of the week gone by.
On Monday (3/24) JSL decided to try NHL’s Doodle Pro. He had fun with it at first and then realized that his big brother was missing.
He set off on a mission to find NHL in their room. This was by far one of his longest crawling adventures to date!
Finally he arrived at the destination of choice.

On Wednesday (3/26) I gave each of the boys a little gift. I wanted to give NHL something for doing his nebulizer treatment. JSL received a Fisher Price Little People egg that had a little boy in it. It was an Easter toy, but aside from the egg holding it you would never know. I was a sport for $1 (and the next day they were ten cents). JSL was in LOVE with his new toy. He would throw it out in front of himself and crawl to it. Here he is playing with me while NHL slept on the couch.

By Friday (3/28) NHL was going stir crazy from being in the house all week. We had to come up with things to keep him busy. All of this while Mommy was getting a fever and horrible body aches.

On Sunday (3/30) I was feeling slightly better. I forced myself to do all of the laundry from the week that had not been done. NHL went to his room for being naughty and actually fell asleep. At the same time JSL fell asleep in an interesting position on Daddy.
After both boys were up from their naps, JSL decided he wanted his sippy cup. He noticed that he was under the dining room table. I thought it was hilarious how he was hunting for the cup. I grabbed my camera. Soon after this JL got his out and was shooting away with me.
NHL even got into the act, but he apparently forgot his camera.
At one point both JL and I were taking a shot at the exact same time. The result of the front and back shot of this moment is really neat (also know that I was taking this photos blind since my hands were under the table and my head above).
In the end we gave him some quiet time after bombarding him with all of the flashes from the camera. As you can see he just wanted to drink some water and read the newspaper!
So that is a sick week in review via photos of some memorable moments.
Although this weekend will be filled with way too much rain, fears of flooding and laughing at my parents (they are stuck in a snowstorm out west with my brother, sister-in-law and niece), I still love it.
The weekend is time to get things done, sleep and spend time with my boys. You know these guys
JL, JSL and NHL all in a row – they are the ones that make me queen of my world.
Sure they are silly some of the time. . . .
but they make me smile and laugh and keep the world going for moi.
When I am floating around, even a hug from each other when one is not feeling well is a wonderful thing to see.
There are big hugs all around and sometimes I am the lucky recipient.
And when I do get those special hugs and kisses, these are the hands that make me feel warm, fuzzy and loved.
Plans here changed, but in a good way for the most part. Tonight we were going to take NHL to a hockey game. We had some free tickets and thought it would be fun. Unfortunately, the boys had other plans. Both of them were up a lot during the night, or up way too early this morning. Thanks to that and JSL possibly being sick again (*sigh*) we opted to change it up a little.
I was able to get some really great movies at the library Friday, so we opted to stay in the warmish house, watch Harry Potty and The Order of the Phoenix and test out my new Whirly Pop.
On that note the popcorn is ready and JL is putting the movie in. Now here’s to hoping that the boys behave!
