i may as well just caption this week in one line and say, "this week amy was sick & parker crawled around entertaining himself." but alas, i don't caption in the third person, that'd be silly. and even though my pictures are 99% parker shots this week, i still feel like his antics need explanation.
so let's do this.
this is utter shock in p-ray's face. because i hardly ever have the tv on during the day & this morning we watched TWO movies. i know, go crazy. he watched bolt & finding nemo while i drank orange juice like it was my job.
i hit the hay come nine o'clock & it was dreamy.
this is me hiding from the camera. trust me, it wasn't pretty... just ask parker. he's laughing at just how awful his mom can look on day three of the sickness-no-shower-no-makeup-routine.
sam was able to get home a bit early to take me to the doctor. and this is where the week gets a bit better. antibiotics are miracle workers my friends.
and also? a shout out to sam, for stepping it up this week & waiting on me hand & foot while i was sick. at one point he even piled the blankets on me, poured me juice, made me toast, & said "why don't we eat snacks & watch movies?" win.
day three of parker being shut in the house with his sick mom & he started getting creative with his activities. for example, he really enjoyed make-out sessions with his reflection in the oven & pushing the dining-room chair cushion around the house. i took pity on the kid & decided to brave a walk outside to get some fresh air. it was enjoyable... until we got rained on.
also on parker's list of fun activities? watching basketball from dad's lap, looking cute & squishy in the bathtub, & glaring at mom when he gets taken out of said bathtub.
oh thursday. day four of being sick at home. parker is now resorting to hiding his toys under the couch & then giggling to himself when he finds them hours later. gotta give him some points for creativity, right?
and we all love story time almost as much as parker loves his blanket {middle pic}. seriously, he now drags that blanket with him everywhere & 75% of the time it's in his mouth. that's an actual statistic, i did research.
on friday morning parker woke up with some sniffles & coughs. and when i say morning, i mean 5:30 am friday morning. and although those aren't the same symptoms i had, i decided to play it safe & spend the day at home & let p-ray take it easy. and this is when he got a bit delirious, as evidenced by that middle pic. what a weirdo. a cute, silly, little, weirdo.
and friday night, we left the house. YES. for the second time this week {first time was doctor's appointment}, i left the house to get some food. and for the record, it was delicious. and also for the record? i'm feeling much, much better. back to normal.
...so here's to next week being much more exciting!
