spring break smiles

I can't let this mean old "fever virus" completely ruin our pseudo-Spring Break fun. After a beyond rough day with Sam yesterday (his fever got up to 104, poor baby), I had the opportunity to go have some fun with Noah. The Razorback baseball team was playing in town and we got to go to the game with Mar Mar & Papa D. HUGE thanks to my wonderful husband for taking care of sick Sam--even leaving work a little early--so I could go do this with Noah. And big thanks to my parents, too, for letting us tag along! Noah had a great time. He thoroughly enjoyed the game, not to mention the FOOD!

This morning was equally rough with Sam, and absolutely nothing I was doing would get him to stop crying. When Noah decided to join in on the crying for unexplained reasons, I knew I just had to get them out of the house! I knew Noah would be happy if we got out in the sunshine, and I hoped that Sam would follow suit. Thankfully, he did! We went to the park and after downing a bottle, Sam happily sat in his stroller chewing on Sophie the Giraffe for an hour! Meanwhile, my wild child kicked off his shoes and had a blast playing. No shoes on gravel! Oh well, what are you going to do?

We even enjoyed a little stroll around the block before leaving the park. The time outside (and my large Diet Coke) really helped all of our moods! (BTW, I am a huge fan of the Tag-a-long stroller handle. I highly recommend it for anyone whose older child is a little too old/big/independent for a double stroller).
