Picture of the Day

Andy has been sick since Tuesday.  He rarely gets sick, but there's some crazy virus going around his class that left his with a horrible, hacking cough and a fever.  We went to the doctor this morning and she checked for strep, bronchitis, pneumonia and the flu, but he was negative for all of them.  Just a very bad virus with some asthma side effects.

It really hasn't been a fun week for either of us.  He is supposed to be grounded from all electronics this week for various indiscretions, but it's pretty hard to kick him when he's already down and take away tv, so I've been pretty lenient in that department.  I've been stuck in the house all week except for a few times when I left him here, which isn't very enjoyable either.  At least I've been able to get to a few things that I've been putting off.  I ran out of excuses and "home all day but just didn't want to do it" didn't fly anymore.  Hoping the girls don't get it and he feels better by Monday.

Andy was playing with the fridge magnets this morning before we went to the doctor.  This is his final product.  Notice the creative use of punctuation and alternate letters.
