Yummy Pizzelle!

Thanks Nana for the huge batch of Pizzelles! We have already put a big dent in the supply. As you can see Mason is a big fan.

Tonight

We are on fever watch. Owen doesn't have a great history with fevers. 2 (past) Febrile seizures is enough for us, so we are always extra conservative. Mason's much better and ate a great dinner. Hooray! On the plus side, EJ and I had a quiet dinner for 2 b/c we ate a little later than the boys. I felt a little guilty enjoying the P&Q knowing it was because Owen was lying sick on the couch.

Another one bites the dust

Owen is quickly going down hill. SAD!!!! At least Mason is a bit perkier and hasn't needed any Motrin.

End of the Week

Today was a long day. Mason has been running a fever since Thursday morning. You would never know by yesterday's blog entry, but he was sick. He had a few bursts of energy but yesterday evening and today he has spent in my arms. At 4:30 today I took him to the Dr. He has a viral infection mostly likely started in his throat. Not much we can do. At least I feel better knowing its not an ear infection or strep throat. Since Mason has gotten so much attention lately and Owen slept during his quiet time today (hasn't happened in weeks) he stayed up a little later and we watched "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" with popcorn. He was thrilled.
Needless to say I am beat (although it doesn't look like it by my smile). I am glad its friday and the kids are in bed.

Trick AND Treat

Owen thought it would be fun to have some Halloween yard decorations. So today while we were at Target we got some pumpkin leaf bags and spooky webbing for the bushes. What I didn't realize was it unintentionally Tricked him into raking the leaves. And that was a Treat for me!
Even Mason joined in. Not to mention its the middle of Oct. and we are wearing shorts and sweating!
Here's the finished product. We have 2 more bags but not enough leaves have fallen.

When we were done Owen said "Mom, that looks FANTASTIC!" Uh, I guess, if you like having cotton stretched out on your bushes ;)
