Well after a whirlwind couple of days,
with back to back family Christmas dinners.... it hit.
The flu took a hold of Guy and left Oliver fevered for 2 days now.
Thankfully Guy felt much better this morning and Oliver's only symptom has been a slight temperature. But it made him ahem a tad miserable this morning and definitely less enthusiastic about the presents Santa brought than he would have been otherwise. Not to mention the horrible night we had of very little sleep as he and Georgie traded off waking me up every hour.
Oliver didn't want to ride his new wheely bug, didn't want to look at his stocking and really wanted no part of anything except some cheerios and juice. Once he got a little something in his belly though he started to come around. But I annoyed him with my camera and he promptly told me "no taking pictures". Georgie on the other hand was having the time of her life despite practically being up until 4 am. She was just loving the new shape sorter and sensory balls to no end.
As the day progressed so did the mood, Oliver livened up
(of course the day was still sprinkled with 2 year emotions) and we watched Christmas movies and played with our new puzzles and toys.
My best present was a pack of Norwex travel sized enviro cloths that have provided us with a great way to keep things disinfected around here, I leave a damp one on the coffee table and we periodically wipe our hands and everything else we have touched with it. Hopefully it will help keep these nasty germs from spreading to Georgie and I! Please let it be so,
a teething baby with the flu while being sick with the flu.... I can't even let my mind go there.
Photo dump from our weekend and from this morning.
And so our Christmas 2012 was filled with merriment and then some not so merry moments.
Our first Christmas as a family of four and our best present is getting to spend the rest of the week together without any hustle bustle and hopefully without any illness!
Merry Christmas from our family to yours.
