Long days of being sick

Brody had a bad ear infection and high fever over the weekend. We stayed in all weekend and Monday as well. Unfortunately, Monday seemed to be the day that Brody decided to fuss, whine, and cry ALL day long. Maura and I both were beyond delirious by the time Chris got home from work that evening. At dinner Brody started sputtering and spitting when I put food in his mouth. Maura thought it was hilarious, so she started doing it to. They both were laughing for the first time all day, so I just kept giving them more food and letting the mess get bigger! I was just thankful they were both having fun for the first time all day. The pictures below are the end of the first food fight!










Maura did get a little peace when I put Brody down for a nap first yesterday afternoon. I think this was the only time she got one-on-one attention until Chris got home.

It's not fun having a sick baby...I understand!! I'm glad Brody started laughing at the end of the day!! Hope he feels better.

There have been days when I've let Meryt do WHATEVER she wants to improve her attitude. Wash your hands 45 times? Sure, no problem. Watch another episode of Curious George, please? Sure, go ahead. A food fight sounds like a good idea to me!
