The Stomach Bug Strikes Back

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning was the first morning back to "normal".  I was going to take Evan to school and return home.  Both mornings that I was in town last week, I went from dropping Evan off to going to and working at StoredIQ.  Then, of course, when I was gone, Rachel took Evan and she had to wake Noah up as well to go.

When I went to wake Evan up, I only turned on the little lamp as I normally do.  It was still pretty dark.  I could hear Evan breathing.  I saw some white sticking out of the sheets and he was wearing a white pajama shirt.  I rubbed the white and said "Evan wake up", but it felt really odd.  I realized that Evan's stuffed Yoda was sticking out of his sheets and I had just rubbed Yoda's back (it was Yoda's white robe that I saw).  Evan was sleeping completely under the covers head and all so I never saw him.

Taking Evan to school was uneventful.

Noah woke up shortly after I got home.  He seemed to be in a good mood and didn't give Rachel any trouble when she took him to school.

Rachel and I both did MB Squared work until Rachel needed to get Noah.

Rachel walked to pick Evan up from school.  When she got home, she made them shaved ice.

After that, Noah told Rachel his tummy was hurting.  Rachel laid down for a nap and Noah climbed up on to my side of the bed and slept for a couple of hours.  He must really not have been feeling well if he slept that long.

I made leftover chicken for dinner and made macaroni and cheese for Evan.  I also made popcorn for both boys.  Rachel brought Noah down and he was complaining more about his tummy.  He didn't want to eat anything and eventually wanted to go back to bed.  He wanted Rachel to get him ready for bed but Rachel was leaving for tutoring so she didn't have time to do the full bedtime routine.  She said he could pick one thing she could help him with, but he wanted it all and threw a fit so Rachel left.  Eventually I coaxed Noah downstairs and gave him some Gatorade.  He ended up eating his popcorn.  After that he seemed to be in a good mood and was playing well with Evan.

Both boys did not give me a hard time getting them ready for bed.  They are not sleeping though.

Until next time...
