Getting Better

Today was a better day. Evan had no fever today, but I still kept him home from school. He was acting much better today. He still didn’t eat much at lunch, but at least he ate a little.

Noah needed a haircut so I decided to trim his hair myself. I took the boys in the backyard and while I was cutting Noah’s hair Evan told me he wanted a haircut too. Evan was happy, but moving around a lot. It was difficult. I told him if he stood still and was good he could have a lollypop after his haircut. That kept him still.

We still have some candy from Halloween so I gave him one of the dumb-dumbs from his trick-or-treating. It was blue and he couldn’t wait to look in the mirror and see his blue tongue.

I put Evan and Noah down for a nap around 2:30 and Blanca came at 3:00. She said Noah slept until about 5:00 and Evan was still sleeping when Morry got home. Morry got him up around 6:00.

Since I was out tutoring Morry took the boys to McDonalds for dinner. He was going to take them to Chick-Fil-A, but when they drove by McDonalds on the way Evan was insisting on eating there. He’s only eaten at McDonalds 2 other times. Morry asked if he was sure that was where he wanted to go and he said yes. Morry said Evan ate very well. In fact, he ate his whole meal – all four chicken nuggets, apples, and cookies.

I got home around 8:00. We let the boys play a little before putting them to bed. They are in bed now. Noah is sleeping, but Evan is playing with his school bus.

A cold front blew in today. It was in the 70s when I left for tutoring and now it’s 37 degrees and raining and sleeting. Brrr!
