Sick

It's been one of those weeks around here.  All three of us have been sick with a cold that just won't quit, a little grumpy, and under-slept.  Parenting a toddler while both you and he are sick is really not so fun.  I'm sure all of you with kids know what I'm talking about.  Luckily at least Emmett seems mostly recovered, and is back at school this week.

We are currently camped out at my parents house, which is my childhood home as well, while the bathrooms at our house are being renovated (!!!) Finally Emmett will have a tub, and be able to say goodbye to baths in the kitchen sink forever.

It is really fun to have Emmett over there.  I keep seeing him hang out on the same step in the kitchen that I used to hang out on as a kid while I watched my mom cook.  And he's sleeping in my old room too.  I just love the continuity of it.  

And finally things seem to be slowing down a little bit work-wise, which is very welcome!  And I've had a chance to make some new collages, and do some administrative work that has been pushed to the back burner for way to long! And I'm finally going out to lunch today with my friend Carolyn and her now 6 week old baby!  It's high time for life to slow down a little.
