Coop loves to rearrange my decorations. He’s always very proud of what he does.

I did a little meal planning while having lunch Friday afternoon. It’s hard to meal plan when most things don’t sound good…

Thank you so SO much for all your kind words and prayers for our little dude. He is on the mend and just about through the worst of these dang illnesses. Poor kid got hit with pneumonia, an ear infection, and two viruses. We had a very scary day at urgent care where he was…

We had some more awful weather Monday. Ice everywhere! I had some work I needed to do, but since we were stuck inside and no one could get to us, I worked in little pockets of time. I was able to get all my grading knocked out, so that was good. We had the best…

We went to my parents’ house for dinner Friday night. My sister and her family were there, too. After dinner, the karaoke madness started. Eleanor was singing at the top of her lungs and Coop was dancing with his microphone. It was hilarious. And really loud.

I made a massive container of pasta bake with peas and mushrooms Wednesday night. Like, a lot of it. I did not like it. At all. Soooo, I just ate a bunch of garlic bread…this pregnancy has definitely been tricky with food. I usually love all the things. Not right now!

We tried all the new activities while we were stuck inside this week. I think I had more fun with this one than he did, ha! He DID love ripping everything down…

We headed to the doctor Friday afternoon because this poor kid has been running a low grade fever off and on for about two weeks. He’s acting okay, just a little extra fussy every once and awhile. He was checked for an ear infection last weekend and all was clear, so we aren’t sure what’s…

This kid is still going through some kind of teething and/or sleep regression. I hate it for him. I’m taking him to the doctor again today to check for an ear infection. He’s been running a low grade fever for awhile, so we just want to make sure it’s not something other than teething.

We had taco salad Monday night and it was pretty dang delicious. I got some shells from Hy-Vee. You just bake them for 10 minutes and you’re ready to go. They were super good. I ate all of mine.
