No News Is...Good News??

...sometimes, sometimes maybe not. I haven't blogged in awhile because in our case, we literally have nothing new to talk about, good or bad. Just nothing. The boys and I are still sick, not nearly as bad as last week, but sick enough to still have to be canceling plans and staying away from all our friends.
I think I can safely say Noah is not contagious, he looks/sounds kind of gross because he still has the leftover runny nose and cough, but he hasn't had a fever for 24 hours. Caleb I'm still not so sure about because every time I think he's without fever for a little while, it comes back. This morning it was only around 99, but fever nonetheless, and I'm assuming it will be back up after nap today, which is typical for him. So this is going on day 10 now of sickness and literally we've been laying low (on our couch, which by now has deep indentations from us all just spending so much time there!) and trying to get better.
This weekend, however, is going to be way too gorgeous to just sit inside, so even if the boys aren't up for all out running around, I'm hoping we can at least make it out for a few walks or something. (Actually, between me starting this post and actually finishing it, my mom and I took the boys out for a walk this morning - a nice reminder that a big beautiful world still exists outside our house!)
So that's our news...not really good or bad, just news. We did have a mini egg hunt in our house Easter morning despite the virus, so here are a couple pictures from that...
At least they look somewhat happy as they search for their treasures:)

And one morning last weekend we were watching "Cars" as an entire family (which is Caleb's newest favorite thing), and Noah just fell asleep sitting up behind my legs...too cute!
The funniest part was that he held onto his movie case the whole time:)

You poor thing... I feel so bad for all of you! Having sick kids at home is no fun at all! Praying that you all get better soon so that you can come out and see Emily... oh wait, but she STILL isn't here! SOON!

Hope that some fresh air this weekend will get everyone feeling better! Dave is asking to see the boys so as soon as everyone is better please give us a call for a park playdate!

Marie told me about Jen...I couldn't believe it!...As for you all, wow you are the trooper! So glad you could play outside on Saturday...I will be praying for the boy's health and you are making me realize how ungrateful I've been for all we've been able to do outside and elsewhere! I have been too much of a complaining pregnant woman, when I do have so much to be thankful for...
