Sick day

I'm recovering from a stomach bug today--no fun! I first thought I'd just eaten something that didn't agree with the baby, but my arms and legs were aching today and I was having chills, so it must have been a little virus. The kids had MDO this morning, so I forced myself to get out and run a few errands. It was raining and traffic just goes crazy when it starts to rain around here. I took this with my phone at one of the many clogged stoplights. I picked the kids up, came straight home to fix R's lunch, then curled up on the couch for a few minutes before time to put A down for her nap. I guess she didn't have much sympathy for me--she went to the pantry and got a can of green beans and threw them at my stomach then climbed all over me! Rhett, however, was a great little doctor. While Alexee was napping (I prayed that she'd take a good nap today and thankfully, she did), Rhett covered me up with blankets, got me water, turned off lamps and got me juice. I asked him if he could get a juice box for me and he asked where they were. I told him the top shelf of the fridge, and he said, "I can't reach them, but NO WORRIES, I have my stool in here and I can climb up and get one." He sat beside me on the couch and watched cartoons and he'd occasionally ask me if I needed anything. So sweet! I told him I was so lucky to have such good help today or I wouldn't have felt better so quickly. Lane brought home a new box of 7up and a new box of popcicles--thanks for taking good care of me today!
