$2 Tater Thursdays - Much Needed Rest!


So this is how today started. I was awakened at 2AM to Tater crying, which is unusual. I got him back to sleep until I heard him again at 6AM. This time, he was sniffling and coughing. (Poor little guy!) I was wondering when this would start. He's been chomping madly at his fingers the last few weeks and right before a tooth comes in, he gets the sniffles. So I pulled him into bed with me and he slept until 10AM! Normally, I would view this as a blessing but I had a Dr's appt to get to.

So we frantically got ready and I gulped down that horrible glucose bottle they gave me. (It was my 27wk. diabetes/anemia test day.) By the time the appt. was over, I had a headache and Tater was still sniffling. So I told Tater that as much as I hated to, we were going to cancel our "Tater Thursday" this week. I was a little disappointed but our health and rest was so much more important.

We had a little lunch at home and took a nap. I let him have an extra DVD viewing so he could lay back and relax with me. And then we spent the rest of the afternoon playing with a milk jug and seeing what all would fit inside. (Why do I buy toys again?)

So even though we didn't get out and about for an adventure, we still learned a lesson today. Sometimes, you just have to know when to listen to your body and take a break! Since I didn't get any pictures today, I thought I'd share one of my favorites of him sleeping as a baby. (Hard to believe he was ever that little!) So we'll roll over our $2 this week and maybe use it for next week's adventure. We'll see!

Hoping your day was full of adventures with your little ones!
