it is no joke when i say that we have been sick for over 2 weeks. we just can't seem to kick this cold, which has now turned into double ear infections for everyone(note sarcasm). i really hope this isn't a precursor to what our winter is going to be like, because i might just jump ship now.
despite both j & d being sick, we have manged to have some fun playing trains, reading, "helping" (this term is used loosely-lol) me cook, and since it is so nice out today we managed to sneak out for some fresh air.
on another note, jack has really begun to show interest in reading. he's always loved to have books read to him, but now he is asking what specific words are. it is so fun to watch his mind process things. he really is a sponge.
and i'll leave you with this, along with pictures of course...a little "jack" funny...
while playing trains yesterday jack discovered that some of his cars fight perfectly on the tracks(their wheel base was the perfect length). so he began to line up his cars, and before long most of the track was filled with cars. he then proceeded to exclaim with excitement "mom, look at my thank you cars all lined up!!" it didn't dawn on me until a bit later that he confused cars with cards, and low and behold came up with "thank you cars" lol! i smiled about that one for the rest of the day:)
