We took it pretty easy at our house today. The nasty bug that Riley has in his system remains. Boo hoo! We had to cancel a much anticipated playdate today for fear we would get our friends sick. The funny thing is, for the most part, he is happy as can be, just with little sick "blips" along the way. So far, Madison shows no signs of being sick. I really hope it remains that way!!!

Today was a bland food day around our house. I was told to keep Riley on the "braty" diet (bananas, rice, applesauce, toast, yogurt) so, by default, Madison was on it too! Lots of toast, eggos and rice! She was such a sweetie again today , by the way!

We hit up Target to get out for a bit and to get some Ginger Ale for Riley's tummy. It was a hoot. The kids are in total awe of all the Christmas decorations. They were pointing and talking, it was the cutest thing!

This afternoon, we hunkered down (yes, Minnesota term, I live here now...) and stayed inside for some hard core playtime. It was really fun! Grandma Dovenberg even stopped by to join in the fun.

Hey, if you can smile though the flu, LIFE IS GOOD!
