Ice Cream Cones!

Blogging has had to take a back seat recently.  I'm still taking (too many) pictures, and have lots to share, but time available is short.

I took Harvick & Jarrett into the doctor's office this past Thursday (the 17th), after they were getting a bit sicker each day, for about a week.  They had congestion and runny noses, slight coughs (mostly when they were very active), and low-grade fevers (never above 101).  The both would pull at their ears, but never consistently the same one(s), and more in a playful manner.  Their diagnosis (after the longest 90 minute wait time, WITH an appointment SCHEDULED) was a left ear infection for each boy, a possible eye infection, and RSV.

So...we've locked ourselves at home, and have been working to get the boys healthy again!

In the meantime...here are some old pictures (taken at night, with no flash...pardon the quality)...

My parents gave the boys some coupons for a free cone at Arctic Circle - on my way home from work one day, we stopped by to redeem them before they expired...

Harvick didn't hesitate at all, but was very cautious in eating the ice cream!

Ryder loved his, but wanted to eat it out of the cup...then wanted to be silly while I took pictures!

Jarrett loved the idea of it, but wouldn't really eat it without help - when it got on his face a little more than he wanted, he freaked out (bottom left, obviously) - it was short lived, though...

When Jarrett became upset, Ryder came to the rescue - showing his little brother how to lick the ice cream, without getting it on his face!

The dessert was free (well, under $2 - I picked up a cone for Patrick & me also!), but was such a fun memory with the boys!
