Wednesday: vaccine day 2

My arm was pretty sore last night and I'm pretty sure I had a fever.  It was a good thing that Ben came to bed when he did because the fever was just starting and I can never convince myself to get out of bed to get medicine once it starts.  Today was pretty good.  I'm a little sore this evening, but I'm not sure I can blame it on the vaccine anymore.


Tuesday: vaccine 2!

 I finished my second COVID shot today!  It was a little bit surreal, honestly.  There wasn't a reminder to come get it, there wasn't a location confirmation, or any of that.  I showed up at the same place and was happy to see that I was in the system.  (I wasn't really worried that I wasn't, but at the same time...)


I got a button too!

My arm is a bit sore this evening.  I'm also rather tired, but it's also been a long day so I don't know how much is just normal tiredness.  Anyway, I'm off to bed earlier than normal, although I might stay up reading rather late.  The boys have a (mostly) screen time day tomorrow since it's spring break, so they'll be busy and won't need me as much.

Monday: egg hunt

 We did our Easter egg hunt today.  Wow, it feels like we did it two days ago.  Apparently it was a slow day.


The boys are getting older so we were able to hide the eggs a bit better.  It was rather fun to see the burst of excitement when they found one!

Saturday: in pictures

We took a walk to pick up cat supplies.  Surprisingly, it rated as the best thing of the day (after screen time, of course).  Isaac enjoyed using his scooter and Joshua got to ride in the stroller for part of it.  The stroller was needed more for transporting cat supplies, but he took advantage of it being empty on the way there.

I trimmed a new quilt for our bed.  It's the first time I've laid it out and I love it!  It's hard to see the quilting texture in this photo, but it adds to the design.  This quilt has been an idea for a long time, so to finally see the almost finished product was exciting.

Friday: The eyes have it

 More eyes were found (and put) around the house today.  It's been fun finding them.




A few days ago Isaac was emptying a box and found a bunch of the baby food containers that I had saved.  He mentioned that there were no lids, so I said I'd probably throw them out.  Instead they became toys (at least for a bit.)  They started with just stacking them, but then came into the bedroom and started throwing them and pretending they were ice cubes.  It was surprisingly fun.

Thursday: April Fool's

 We didn't do much for April Fools, but I did get some googly eyes and Ben and I put them all around the house.

When the boys woke up, Isaac took a lot of the Lego eyes and put them all around the house.  Between those and the one's Ben put out it was a lot of fun finding random eyes throughout the day.

Wednesday: egg hunt

The boys had a blind-folded Easter egg hunt.  The teachers were kind enough to drop some eggs off for us!





Our babysitter is in quarantine.  It causes problems, but everything was figured out.  It also seems as though several students at the boys' school have COVID as we're getting a lot of form letters.  It's actually rather odd, but that's the only reason we can think of.
