We hate sicky days...

Today kinda sucks. I've got a 3-year-old who was up half the night throwing up, and a newborn who doesn't want to sleep well. I'm thinking he's got gas issues. Yeah, needless to say, we're homebound today and not going anywhere. So why not post on my blog, right?

My friend Amy did this on her blog and I thought it looked kinda fun.

Okay, so some of them are stretches (I read the entire Curious George book in one day with Eli, and the rock climbing was one of those indoor wall ones, but who's counting right?) :)

Also, I'll have pictures to post once I get downstairs onto my computer, where all my photos are. West and I did a little photo shoot on Monday for his 2 week birthday and they turned out marvelously. Sorry to tease, but you'll get to see them soon. :)

Oh, and if anyone has a really good recommendation for a double stroller for Eli and the newborn, I need to know what it is. I'm looking for one to get soon and I want to make sure I get one that will be comfortable enough for Eli, roomy enough to hold stuff, and not too huge that I can't maneuver it around. So let me know if you have a great one and why you love it!

Sorry you're having a rough day. Fun to read your things you've done.

For the stroller, we just got a Joovy Caboose, which my mommy message board friends all swear by. We've used it a bit around the house, but obviously haven't REALLY been able to use it, but I can tell already that we're going to LOVE it! It's a sit and stand type, where the older child can either sit in the back facing you, or stand facing outward. Great for the big kids! Anyways, that's my rec. Oh, and we got the Ultralight one and it's amazingly light and easy to maneuver.
