Poor Henry! He's caught a cold and has a terrible cough that's keeping him (and everyone else!) awake all night long. He woke up this morning looking absolutely wrecked - red, watery eyes, runny nose, and coughing, coughing, coughing. I couldn't send him to school like that, so he stayed home. Well, after a couple hours it became clear that while he was definitely too sick to go to school, he wasn't sick enough to spend the day laying around the house...so we bundled up and headed to the zoo to enjoy the sunshine. I pushed Henry around in the stroller and carried Nora in the wrap and we enjoyed the day - although I am pretty tired now. Nora slept through her first visit to the zoo...by this summer I'm guessing she'll be more excited about it though!
Before he got sick he spent the night twice this weekend at mom's house! Hooray! Hopefully this trend will continue and he'll want to spend the night more often. It's funny to me that he used to be able to spend the night there, then refused to and now (finally!) is receptive to it again. Maybe he enjoys being the center of attention again when he's over there by himself...
The above picture if from last week - I've mentioned that he likes to help in the kitchen, well one night we were going to pick up pizzas for dinner but Henry asked if we could make pizzas instead and if he could pick out the toppings for his. So, on his pizza he had turkey pepperoni, pineapples and pickles. And I have to say, it was pretty good - the pickles were actually not bad!
