A Relaxing Sunday

On Friday afternoon Harvick and Jarrett started developing a bit of a runny nose.  Considering they are "behind" on teething, combined with possible allergies, and the bad air right now, we didn't think much of it.  Saturday, we still went to Salt Lake (although, we skipped out on the Farmers Market to ensure they got good morning naps).  By Saturday evening, they definitely were not feeling their best.  Still no fevers, but the runny nose persisted.

Sunday, they both woke up with heavy congestion, and although we thought it really is just a combination of teething, allergies, and bad air - we knew it would be best to keep them home from church.  I hate dropping them off when there is a (what appears to be) sick kid in the classroom!

Harvick and Jarrett took long morning naps - Patrick took the opportunity to make a Costco run, with Ryder.  We enjoyed lunch at home, played for a bit, then put all three down.  None of them slept super long, but they all napped well!  The afternoon was filled with playing together.

The boys, playing together.
In the past few weeks, Harvick and Jarrett have started to enjoy walking/dancing around with Ryder, while holding both of his hands.  The boys all think it is hysterical...

Jarrett, trying to find which cup Patrick hid the duck toy in.

Jarrett has started to show an interest in trains - he and Ryder play well together. Harvick will play at times, but tires of the same thing more quickly, and wants to move on to other toys!

Days like this are good reminders to not always plan to do something.  I love that we keep busy with family activities.  But...sometimes it's good to take a break!
