Spring Break 2009--Part 2

Ahhhh, Spring Break! You've gotta love it!!!! :) Saturday and Sunday we took as days just to hang out at home. We played some games, watched some TV, played outside, just RELAXED!

Sunday Kaden came down w/the 3hr (or so) flu bug. LOL He was fine all morning--ate breakfast, ran around playing w/Cam, etc. Then around 10:00am he started complaining that his tummy hurt. I had him lay down on the couch but he just couldn't get comfortable. He ended up pulling out his little couch to lay on w/a couple pillows and blankets, and he was out! He napped for about 1.5hrs that morning--VERY unusual for Kaden! When he woke up he asked for some crackers, so I gave him a couple (and our giant red popcorn bowl...just in case--thanks Meg!). Yeah, not a good idea. He ate half of a cracker and started to complain that his tummy was now hurting REALLY bad. Yup, he threw up.

I was getting ready to head to Walmart, so I instructed Josh not to feed him anything while I was gone. The boy couldn't even hold down HALF a cracker! He was still looking pretty pale and out of it when I left. 45mins later I was home and Kaden was magically cured. LOL He was bouncing off the walls, his silly usual self! :) That afternoon for lunch he had two BIG bowls of applesauce and a lunchable. And he was fine from then out. LOL Crazy!

Monday Cam woke up with "snots" as he likes to call it. :) But other than that, everyone was healthy, so we decided to take advantage of the gorgeous weather. We headed out to a nearby pond to feed the ducks followed by some playing on the playground. :)

Both boys (and us) love to watch and feed the ducks. :)

As you know, Cam can be a bit bossy at times. Here he

is giving the ducks orders to eat the bun he was throwing to them. LOL

How dare they leave some floating near the edge?!

The equipment on this part of the playground is all new, and

this was the first time the boys had played here. Cam loved the swings,

but wasn't too impressed w/the rest. He spent most of his time on the old equipment.

Kaden, on the other hand, loved the new playground!

A lot of the equipment is quite different from most of the other playgrounds.

It was a great morning! Nice weather, fresh air, family fun. What more could we ask for? :)
