Lets all be Sickly

Everybody’s ill right now Lincoln was first about a week ago but we though it was part of teething then Reagan got a rasping cough that comes from her lungs. Mommy was next, and I have every admiration for her because up until Tuesday even though she was dead on her feet she was so ill she kept going with being a Mommy running the house AND going to Manchester to be tutored for her OU course last Saturday, when I’m ill like she is I struggle to keep going. Some would say aren’t all men like that, maybe they are but when you’re really ill it takes every ounce of self motivation to think of the children before your own suffering and Jamie just did it…until Monday when the bubble burst and we called my Mom to have the kids so Jamie could recharge so I took them over to her before going to work and Jamie curled up on the sofa with antibiotics hot honey drinks and co codamol for the whole day.

I am fighting the same illness at the moment the best I can but I’m thankful I have Jamie around because watching her motivates me not to just moan and feel sorry for myself…so its lots of pills and constantly telling everyone “I’m fine” in a really deep voice (because I’m ill. LOL)

Lincoln

100 mph or asleep

My little cyclone is just as busy as any little boy could be, as soon as he opens his eyes every morning he is busy either by himself or with anyone who shows any kind of interest in playing with him. He loves his sister and wants to be with her all the time but when they are together they are still learning to play together and share, but when she isn’t there he loves to explore every nook and cranny and will play for quite a while so long as he knows his Momma is around (or his Daddy, but he’s a Mommy’s boy)

The one thing you notice no matter what the scenario, is he is always on the go ‘100mph’ all the time until he gets tired and at that point he has to sleep or he gets miserable and cry’ee. It can be really funny though at times because he loves to look under stuff and find stuff he’s stuffed under whatever stuff there is like the sofa or a chair but if he’s tired he can be looking under stuff and nod off and you go in search of him because he’s quiet only to find him as sleep still looking under stuff! lol

Reagan and Lincoln in local newspaper

We love the park but its “not that good” if you compare it to surrounding town parks so Jamie and the other parents have started up a n action group to hopefully change that?

The Park on a Sunday (could be a tradition?)

I love taking Reagan and Lincoln out on a Sunday morning any time of the year but when we have to wrap up warm on a foggy cold Autumn morning like yesterday its especially enjoyable. We took snacks and drinks and set off leaving Mommy to have a little alone time in the house to shower and get some OU homework done.

With potty training well underway I took a portapotty with us and it wasn’t long before Reagan was sat on it on the canal bank and again in the middle of Tesco’s car park (which I will remind her about many times in a few years lol) Then after calling in Tesco’s to get Lincoln a new tooth brush and some bread for the ducks we went to the park for PLAY and eat our snacks.

The slides OK Daddy but we want a go on the swings

HIGHER Daddy HIGHER!

Dad this is the best fun EVER!

We always have such a great time but sometimes Reagan has a little “hissy”

…OK Daddy I want to ride this one! I want to ride this one! I want to ride this one!

I WANT TO RIDE THIS ONE……NOOOOOOOOOOO!

She soon realises that I am ignoring her and calms down, and is playing again as though nothing happened? We left the park watching a grandad trying to get his grandaughter off the swing and into a pram when she was rigidly straightening to avoid going back in and only becomes compliant when he put her back in swing at which point he had completely lost any fight. As I passed him I said I feel your pain brother but there is now only one way and that is to drag her off kicking and screaming and she will be fine outside the park (This is what he did when I was right down the road hehehe) but not before I had walked off the park with both my smiling and happy children, little did he know I was crossing everything and praying to a god I don’t even believe in that they didn’t kick off making me look like I knew nothing.

Here you swans, BREAKFAST!

Reagan stop eating the bread, it’s for the ducks!

Look Daddy! Bye Bye water!

By the time we got home it was a really nice day and all the fog had gone we had some dinner and they went to bed leaving Mommy and I to a peacefull couple of hours doing nothing….PERFECT!

Lincoln

:-( Jections

Lincoln was not a happy camper today after having three jections all in his legs boo 🙁 I did bedtime and he was fussy but eventually nodded off but I heard him throughout the evening sleeping but restlessly. Mommy had been out to a playground meeting and I warned her when she got in that it could be a long night because he normally sleeps soundly.

As it happens we all did get a nights sleep but I’m sure Lincoln wished he hadn’t had to go to the docs
