sick. sick. sick.

This is the third Monday in a row I've been sick. The first Monday Aaron and I came down with the stomach flu - he and I both called in sick. At least that was a 24 hour bug. Last Monday I had a cold - stuffed up and coughing. Well, that cold has lasted and lasted to today, and now it's worse! Aaron has a bad cough that's been around for about 5 days too. Wyatt has done the best out of all of us - he must have fabulous immunity from daycare! He's just had a runny nose and a mild cough the past few days. So, we all went to Convenient Care tonight - each with our own diagnosis. Aaron has bronchitis. I have a sinus infection and a sore throat - my rapid Strep test was negative, thank goodness! But the real Strep test doesn't come back till Wednesday. Wyatt just has a mild cold, but since he's had it for more than a couple days the doctor is putting him on antibiotics so he doesn't get what we've got!

I'm hoping that next Monday is a healthy one. Stomach flu, cold, sinus infection... I don't want to know what comes next!

Wyatt's first visit with Santa

I love this picture. Hilarious! Wyatt was less than thrilled with his first visit with Santa Claus. And Santa is just smiling away in the background. He was a good sport. We are in Iowa City this weekend, and we went to Sycamore Mall which is much calmer than the Coral Ridge Mall. I thought with most Santa picture places you have to pay, but at this one she said I could use my camera if I wanted. Um, yes?? She has the same camera that I have so I didn't see the point in paying $7 for a picture of Wyatt crying. :) I don't know how they make money if they let parents take their own pictures, but hey, I'll take it!

Anyway, Grandma Cheri bought Wyatt a Santa hat at Ben Franklin's after our visit with Santa. Isn't he cute?? :)

Well, I am getting in the Christmas mood - I want to put up our Christmas tree when we get home tomorrow! Happy Holidays!

Catching up on the blog...

I have some catching up to do on the blog. Here are some pictures from Halloween - Wyatt dressed up as a penguin this year! I don't think he really cared what he was, but we did let him "pick" his costume. :)
He trick-or-treated at my parents - see him clutching his candy? And yet he had no interest in eating it. He actually got upset when I opened it up. Hilarious. :)

And Grandma B. dressed up as Ironman this year. Ha. Just kidding. She was trying on one of Alex's birthday presents. :)

Wyatt thought the sucker was pretty decent - that was a sticky mess!

And here are the most current pictures of Wyatt from lunch today. We ate at Old Chicago after church, and he just looked so darn cute in his overalls and plaid shirt. The waiter got a kick out of him eating his pizza... it's a messy affair.

I told him to "Say cheese!" and this is the face I got. Cute! :)

Way too much fun eating pizza...

And... modeling his new winter hat. It was kind of chilly today, so we had him wear his new hat and coat. He thought that was great. :)

Anyway... This weekend Aaron and I are heading to St. Louis (Wyatt is staying with Grandma Muffy). I'm taking an Invisalign course there on Friday, and then we are going to hang out there on Saturday for a mini getaway. I'm excited for a short work week!

The next week is Thanksgiving - again, I am excited for another short work week! Woo hoo!

Hope you are all doing well!
